The semantics of call_usermodehelper_pipe() used to be that it would fork
the helper, and wait for the kernel thread to be started. This was
implemented by setting sub_info.wait to 0 (implicitly), and doing a
wait_for_completion().
As part of the cleanup done in 0ab4dc9227,
call_usermodehelper_pipe() was changed to pass 1 as the value for wait to
call_usermodehelper_exec().
This is equivalent to setting sub_info.wait to 1, which is a change from
the previous behaviour. Using 1 instead of 0 causes
__call_usermodehelper() to start the kernel thread running
wait_for_helper(), rather than directly calling ____call_usermodehelper().
The end result is that the calling kernel code blocks until the user mode
helper finishes. As the helper is expecting input on stdin, and now no one
is writing anything, everything locks up (observed in do_coredump).
The fix is to change the 1 to UMH_WAIT_EXEC (aka 0), indicating that we
want to wait for the kernel thread to be started, but not for the helper to
finish.

I ran into a few problems.
n_tty_ioctl() for instance:
drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c:799: error: $,1rxstruct termios$,1ry has no
member named $,1rxc_ispeed$,1ry
This is calling the copy interface that is supposed to be using
a termios2 when the new interfaces are defined, however:
case TIOCGLCKTRMIOS:
if (kernel_termios_to_user_termios((struct termios __user *)arg, real_tty->termios_locked))
return -EFAULT;
return 0;
This is going to write over the end of the userspace
structure by a few bytes, and wasn't caught by you yet
because the i386 implementation is simply copy_to_user()
which does zero type checking.

The futex list traversal on the compat side appears to have
a bug.
It's loop termination condition compares:
while (compat_ptr(uentry) != &head->list)
But that can't be right because "uentry" has the special
"pi" indicator bit still potentially set at bit 0. This
is cleared by fetch_robust_entry() into the "entry"
return value.
What this seems to mean is that the list won't terminate
when list iteration gets back to the the head. And we'll
also process the list head like a normal entry, which could
cause all kinds of problems.
So we should check for equality with "entry". That pointer
is of the non-compat type so we have to do a little casting
to keep the compiler and sparse happy.
The same problem can in theory occur with the 'pending'
variable, although that has not been reported from users
so far.
Based on the original patch from David Miller.

The Marvell bridge chips used on HighPoint SATA cards do not seem to support
the UltraDMA modes 1, 2, and 3 as well as any MWDMA modes, so the driver needs
to account for this in the udma_filter() method. In order to achieve that, do
the following changes:
- install the method for all chips, not only HPT36x/370 and improve the code
formatting by killing the extra tabs while at it;
- add to the end of the 'switch' statement in the method cases for HPT372[AN]
and HPT374 chips upon which the known SATA cards are based;
- use hwif->ultra_mask as a default mask for the ide_dma_filter() method to
behave correctly;
- move the HPT370[A] cases below the HPT36x case for consistency.
While at it, replace the explicit UltraDMA mode masks with ATA_UDMA* constants
all over the driver...
