9f7cdbc33f blkdev: fix merge_bvec_fn return value checks
merge_bvec_fn() returns bvec->bv_len on success. So we have to check
against this value. But in case of fs_optimization merge we compare
with wrong value. This patch must be included in
 b428cd6da7e6559aca69aa2e3a526037d3f20403
But accidentally i've forgot to add this in the initial patch.
To make things straight let's replace all such checks.
In fact this makes code easy to understand.

4912002fff Remove EXPERIMENTAL from NFS_FSCACHE
There's currently an open Ubuntu bug[0], with the intent to compile NFS_FSCACHE
(and possibly AFS_FSCACHE, 9P_FSCACHE) into the standard Ubuntu kernel.
However, since *_FSCACHE still depends on EXPERIMENTAL, this won't happen.

As Arjan van de Ven pointed out[1], the EXPERIMENTAL flag doesn't mean that
much any more, I propose the following patch to fs/nfs/Kconfig.  I'd do the
same for fs/9p/Kconfig and fs/afs/Kconfig, but as I did not test 9p or AFS, I
feel it would not be appropriate for me to remove the flag.

cf6620acc0 dlm: send reply before bast
When the lock master processes a successful operation (request,
convert, cancel, or unlock), it will process the effects of the
change before sending the reply for the operation.  The "effects"
of the operation are:

- blocking callbacks (basts) for any newly granted locks
- waiting or converting locks that can now be granted

The cast is queued on the local node when the reply from the lock
master is received.  This means that a lock holder can receive a
bast for a lock mode that is doesn't yet know has been granted.

7fe2b3190b dlm: fix ordering of bast and cast
When both blocking and completion callbacks are queued for lock,
the dlm would always deliver the completion callback (cast) first.
In some cases the blocking callback (bast) is queued before the
cast, though, and should be delivered first.  This patch keeps
track of the order in which they were queued and delivers them
in that order.

This patch also keeps track of the granted mode in the last cast
and eliminates the following bast if the bast mode is compatible
with the preceding cast mode.  This happens when a remotely mastered
lock is demoted, e.g. EX->NL, in which case the local node queues
a cast immediately after sending the demote message.  In this way
a cast can be queued for a mode, e.g. NL, that makes an in-transit
bast extraneous.

a17e18790a fs/exec.c: fix initial stack reservation
803bf5ec25 ("fs/exec.c: restrict initial
stack space expansion to rlimit") attempts to limit the initial stack to
20*PAGE_SIZE.  Unfortunately, in attempting ensure the stack is not
reduced in size, we ended up not changing the stack at all.

This size reduction check is not necessary as the expand_stack call does
this already.

This caused a regression in UML resulting in most guest processes being
killed.

8f9941aecc CacheFiles: Fix a race in cachefiles_delete_object() vs rename
cachefiles_delete_object() can race with rename.  It gets the parent directory
of the object it's asked to delete, then locks it - but rename may have changed
the object's parent between the get and the completion of the lock.

However, if such a circumstance is detected, we abandon our attempt to delete
the object - since it's no longer in the index key path, it won't be seen
again by lookups of that key.  The assumption is that cachefilesd may have
culled it by renaming it to the graveyard for later destruction.

7c0ff870d1 sysfs: sysfs_sd_setattr set iattrs unconditionally
There is currently a bug in sysfs_sd_setattr inherited from
sysfs_setattr in 2.6.32 where the first time we set the attributes
on a sysfs file we allocate backing store but do not set the
backing store attributes.  Resulting in overly restrictive
permissions on sysfs files.

The fix is to simply modify the code so that it always executes
when we update the sysfs attributes, as we did in 2.6.31 and earlier.

65d269538a NFS: Too many GETATTR and ACCESS calls after direct I/O
The cached read and write paths initialize fattr->time_start in their
setup procedures.  The value of fattr->time_start is propagated to
read_cache_jiffies by nfs_update_inode().  Subsequent calls to
nfs_attribute_timeout() will then use a good time stamp when
computing the attribute cache timeout, and squelch unneeded GETATTR
calls.

Since the direct I/O paths erroneously leave the inode's
fattr->time_start field set to zero, read_cache_jiffies for that inode
is set to zero after any direct read or write operation.  This
triggers an otw GETATTR or ACCESS call to update the file's attribute
and access caches properly, even when the NFS READ or WRITE replies
have usable post-op attributes.

Make sure the direct read and write setup code performs the same fattr
initialization as the cached I/O paths to prevent unnecessary GETATTR
calls.

This was likely introduced by commit 0e574af1 in 2.6.15, which appears
to add new nfs_fattr_init() call sites in the cached read and write
paths, but not in the equivalent places in fs/nfs/direct.c.  A
subsequent commit in the same series, 33801147, introduces the
fattr->time_start field.

Interestingly, the direct write reschedule path already has a call to
nfs_fattr_init() in the right place.

175359f89d reiserfs: Fix softlockup while waiting on an inode
When we wait for an inode through reiserfs_iget(), we hold
the reiserfs lock. And waiting for an inode may imply waiting
for its writeback. But the inode writeback path may also require
the reiserfs lock, which leads to a deadlock.

We just need to release the reiserfs lock from reiserfs_iget()

180040b89e xfs: optimize log flushing in xfs_fsync
If we have a pinned inode it must have a log item attached to it.
Usually that log item will have ili_last_lsn already set, in which
case we only need to flush the log up to that LSN instead of doing a
full log force.  This gives speedups of about 5% in some fsync heavy
workloads.

obstacle in the filesystem (e.g. a resource group header or another

enough blocks for the metadata are returned.

By changing the exit condition of this loop, we ensure that a

803bf5ec25 fs/exec.c: restrict initial stack space expansion to rlimit
When reserving stack space for a new process, make sure we're not
attempting to expand the stack by more than rlimit allows.

This fixes a bug caused by b6a2fea393 ("mm:
variable length argument support") and unmasked by
fc63cf2370 ("exec: setup_arg_pages() fails
to return errors").

This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg.
80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before
they start.  This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below
1280K will kill every process.

To test, do:

  'ulimit -s 15; ls'

before and after the patch is applied.  Before it's applied, 'ls' should
be killed.  After the patch is applied, 'ls' should no longer be killed.

A stack limit of 15KB since it's small enough to trigger 20*PAGE_SIZE.
Also 15KB not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which is a trickier case to handle
correctly with this code.

4K pages should be fine to test with.

f79f118528 compat_ioctl: ignore RAID_VERSION ioctl
md ioctls are now handled by the md driver itself, but mdadm
may call RAID_VERSION on other devices as well. Mark the command
as IGNORE_IOCTL so this fails silently rather than printing
an annoying message.

fdcb45777a NFS: Fix the mapping of the NFSERR_SERVERFAULT error
It was recently pointed out that the NFSERR_SERVERFAULT error, which is
designed to inform the user of a serious internal error on the server, was
being mapped to an error value that is internal to the kernel.

This patch maps it to the error EREMOTEIO, which is exported to userland
through errno.h.

50ab2fe147 proc_devtree: include linux/of.h
Currenly, proc_devtree.c depends on asm/prom.h to include linux/of.h, to
provide some device-tree definitions (eg, struct property).

Instead, include linux/of.h directly. We still need asm/prom.h for
HAVE_ARCH_DEVTREE_FIXUPS.

8cfb3343f7 of: make set_node_proc_entry private to proc_devtree.c
We only need set_node_proc_entry in proc_devtree.c, so move it there.

This fixes the !HAVE_ARCH_DEVTREE_FIXUPS build, as we can't make make
the definition in linux/of.h conditional on this #define (definitions in
asm/prom.h can't be exposed to linux/of.h, due to the enforced #include
ordering).
