2b36f412ab lockd: save lock state on deferral
We need to keep some state for a pending asynchronous lock request, so this
patch adds that state to struct nlm_block.

This also adds a function which defers the request, by calling
rqstp->rq_chandle.defer and storing the resulting deferred request in a
nlm_block structure which we insert into lockd's global block list.  That
new function isn't called yet, so it's dead code until a later patch.

2beb6614f5 locks: add fl_grant callback for asynchronous lock return
Acquiring a lock on a cluster filesystem may require communication with
remote hosts, and to avoid blocking lockd or nfsd threads during such
communication, we allow the results to be returned asynchronously.

When a ->lock() call needs to block, the file system will return
-EINPROGRESS, and then later return the results with a call to the
routine in the fl_grant field of the lock_manager_operations struct.

This differs from the case when ->lock returns -EAGAIN to a blocking
lock request; in that case, the filesystem calls fl_notify when the lock
is granted, and the caller retries the original lock.  So while
fl_notify is merely a hint to the caller that it should retry, fl_grant
actually communicates the final result of the lock operation (with the
lock already acquired in the succesful case).

Therefore fl_grant takes a lock, a status and, for the test lock case, a
conflicting lock.  We also allow fl_grant to return an error to the
filesystem, to handle the case where the fl_grant requests arrives after
the lock manager has already given up waiting for it.

9b9d2ab415 locks: add lock cancel command
Lock managers need to be able to cancel pending lock requests.  In the case
where the exported filesystem manages its own locks, it's not sufficient just
to call posix_unblock_lock(); we need to let the filesystem know what's
happening too.

We do this by adding a new fcntl lock command: FL_CANCELLK.  Some day this
might also be made available to userspace applications that could benefit from
an asynchronous locking api.

150b393456 locks: allow {vfs,posix}_lock_file to return conflicting lock
The nfsv4 protocol's lock operation, in the case of a conflict, returns
information about the conflicting lock.

It's unclear how clients can use this, so for now we're not going so far as to
add a filesystem method that can return a conflicting lock, but we may as well
return something in the local case when it's easy to.

3ee17abd14 locks: factor out generic/filesystem switch from test_lock
Factor out the code that switches between generic and filesystem-specific lock
methods; eventually we want to call this from lock managers (lockd and nfsd)
too; currently they only call the generic methods.

This patch does that for test_lock.

Note that this hasn't been necessary until recently, because the few
filesystems that define ->lock() (nfs, cifs...) aren't exportable via NFS.
However GFS (and, in the future, other cluster filesystems) need to implement
their own locking to get cluster-coherent locking, and also want to be able to
export locking to NFS (lockd and NFSv4).

So we accomplish this by factoring out code such as this and exporting it for
the use of lockd and nfsd.

5a6d41b32a NFS: Ensure PG_writeback is cleared when writeback fails
If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the
memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must
ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared.

Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we
schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the
value of test_set_page_writeback().
The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the
PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

23450319e2 ide: correctly prevent IDE timer expiry function to run if request was already handled
It is possible for the timer expiry function to run even though the
request has already been handled: ide_timer_expiry() only checks that
the handler is not NULL, but it is possible that we have handled a
request (thus clearing the handler) and then started a new request
(thus starting the timer again, and setting a handler). 

A simple way to exhibit this is to set the DMA timeout to 1 jiffy and
run dd: The kernel will panic after a few minutes because
ide_timer_expiry() tries to add a timer when it's already active.

To fix this, we simply add a request generation count that gets
incremented at every interrupt, and check in ide_timer_expiry() that
we have not already handled a new interrupt before running the expiry
function.

49f1971051 [PATCH] Proper fix for highmem kmap_atomic functions for VMI for 2.6.21
Since lazy MMU batching mode still allows interrupts to enter, it is
possible for interrupt handlers to try to use kmap_atomic, which fails when
lazy mode is active, since the PTE update to highmem will be delayed.  The
best workaround is to issue an explicit flush in kmap_atomic_functions
case; this is the only way nested PTE updates can happen in the interrupt
handler.

Thanks to Jeremy Fitzhardinge for noting the bug and suggestions on a fix.

This patch gets reverted again when we start 2.6.22 and the bug gets fixed
differently.

1d64b9cb1d [PATCH] Fix microcode-related suspend problem
Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code
ordering that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode
driver to hang during the resume.

The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in
its CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and
hangs.  It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the
microcode stored in memory during the resume instead of trying to load it
from disk.

  but conforms to the ARMv6 memory ordering model and supports the
  various ARMv6 barriers.)
- Makes DMA coherent platforms (only ixp23xx at the moment) map
  mb/rmb/wmb to dmb(), as on DMA coherent platforms, DMA consistent
  mappings are done as Normal mappings, which are weakly ordered.

b863f46e6a sh: Trivial fix for hp6xx build.
The IRQ3 define was removed when asm-sh/irq.h was cleaned up,
this updates the hp6xx header to use the IRQ number directly.

310f7963c2 sh: Fixup __cmpxchg() compile breakage with gcc4.
As reported by Manuel:

When I build linux with GCC-4.x and enable
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE linking fails with this error:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
  kernel/built-in.o: In function '__cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer'
  make[1]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
  make: *** [_all] Error 2

This ended up being an inlining problem, fixed by explicitly
including linux/compiler.h and grabbing the definitions from there.

c2805fbb86 [PATCH] WE-22 : prevent information leak on 64 bit
Johannes Berg discovered that kernel space was leaking to
userspace on 64 bit platform. He made a first patch to fix that. This
is an improved version of his patch.

a28d193cbf [PATCH] ipcns: fix !CONFIG_IPC_NS behavior
When CONFIG_IPC_NS=n, clone(CLONE_NEWIPC) claims success, but did not actually
clone a new IPC namespace.

Fix this to return -EINVAL so the caller knows his request was denied.

7632fc8f80 [PATCH] uml: fix static linking
During a static link, ld has started putting a .note section in the
.uml.setup.init section.  This has the result that the UML setups begin
with 32 bytes of garbage and UML crashes immediately on boot.

This patch creates a specific .note section for ld to drop this stuff
into.

When CONFIG_UTS_NS=n, clone(CLONE_NEWUTS) quietly refuses.  So correctly does
not unshare a new uts namespace, but also does not return -EINVAL.

Fix this to return -EINVAL so the caller knows his request was denied.
