On alpha, ia64 and ppc64 only relocations to local data can go into
read-only sections. The vast majority of module parameters use the global
generic param_set_*/param_get_* functions, so the 'const' attribute for
struct kernel_param is not only useless, but it also causes compile
failures due to 'section type conflict' in those rare cases where
param_set/get are local functions.

Commit d3d74453c3 ("hrtimer: fixup the
HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ fallback") broke several archs, and since
only Russell bothered to merge the fix, and Greg to ACK his arch, I'm
sending this for merger.
I have confirmation that the Alpha bit results in a booting kernel.
That leaves: blackfin, frv, sh and sparc untested.
The deadlock in question was found by Russell:
IRQ handle
-> timer_tick() - xtime seqlock held for write
-> update_process_times()
-> run_local_timers()
-> hrtimer_run_queues()
-> hrtimer_get_softirq_time() - tries to get a read lock
Now, Thomas assures me the fix is trivial, only do_timer() needs to be
done under the xtime_lock, and update_process_times() can savely be
removed from under it.

The raw_pci_read() interface (as the raw_pci_ops->read() before it)
unconditionally fills in a 32-bit integer return value regardless of the
size of the operation requested.
So claiming to take a "void *" is wrong, as is passing in a pointer to
just a byte variable.
Noticed by pageexec when enabling -fstack-protector (which needs other
patches too to actually work, but that's a separate issue).

This patch enhances EFI runtime code memory mapping as following:
- Move __supported_pte_mask & _PAGE_NX checking before invoking
runtime_code_page_mkexec(). This makes it possible for compiler to
eliminate runtime_code_page_mkexec() on machine without NX support.
- Use set_memory_x/nx in early_mapping_set_exec(). This eliminates the
duplicated implementation.

firmware.

Andi Kleen pointed out that the cache attribute logic is reverse in
efi_enter_virtual_mode(). This problem alone is harmless as we do not
(yet) do cache attribute conflict resolution. (This bug was not present

uninitialized md->virt_addr.

Steven mentioned the fun case where a lock holding task will be throttled.
Simple fix: allow groups that have boosted tasks to run anyway.
If a runnable task in a throttled group gets boosted the dequeue/enqueue
done by rt_mutex_setprio() is enough to unthrottle the group.
This is ofcourse not quite correct. Two possible ways forward are:
- second prio array for boosted tasks
- boost to a prio ceiling (this would also work for deadline scheduling)

There is a race in Linux kernel file net/core/dev.c, function dev_close.
The function calls function dev_deactivate, which calls function
dev_watchdog_down that deletes the watchdog timer. However, after that, a
driver can call netif_carrier_ok, which calls function
__netdev_watchdog_up that can add the watchdog timer again. Function
unregister_netdevice calls function dev_shutdown that traps the bug
!timer_pending(&dev->watchdog_timer). Moving dev_deactivate after
netif_running() has been cleared prevents function netif_carrier_on
from calling __netdev_watchdog_up and adding the watchdog timer again.

In do_setlink() a single notification is sent at the end of the
function if any modification occured. If the address has been changed,
another notification is sent.
Both of them is required because originally only the NETDEV_CHANGEADDR
notification was sent and although device state change implies address
change, some programs may expect the original notification. It remains
for compatibity.
