5318609519 mm, oom: ensure sysrq+f always passes valid zonelist
With hotpluggable and memoryless nodes, it's possible that node 0 will
not be online, so use the first online node's zonelist rather than
hardcoding node 0 to pass a zonelist with all zones to the oom killer.

b82c32872d sysrq: use SEND_SIG_FORCED instead of force_sig()
Change send_sig_all() to use do_send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_FORCED) instead
of force_sig(SIGKILL).  With the recent changes we do not need force_ to
kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks.

And this is more correct.  force_sig() can race with the exiting thread,
while do_send_sig_info(group => true) kill the whole process.

Some more notes from Oleg Nesterov:

> Just one note. This change makes no difference for sysrq_handle_kill().

Also,

So, this patch fixes the issue.

08ab9b10d4 mm, oom: force oom kill on sysrq+f
The oom killer chooses not to kill a thread if:

 - an eligible thread has already been oom killed and has yet to exit,
   and

 - an eligible thread is exiting but has yet to free all its memory and
   is not the thread attempting to currently allocate memory.

SysRq+F manually invokes the global oom killer to kill a memory-hogging
task.  This is normally done as a last resort to free memory when no
progress is being made or to test the oom killer itself.

For both uses, we always want to kill a thread and never defer.  This
patch causes SysRq+F to always kill an eligible thread and can be used to
force a kill even if another oom killed thread has failed to exit.

079c9534a9 vt:tackle kbd_table
Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on

- Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
- Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
- Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
- Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
  around properly
- Tweak the braille console so it still builds

There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.

This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

d3a532a9c6 sysrq: Properly check for kernel threads
There's a real possibility of killing kernel threads that might
have issued use_mm(), so kthread's mm might become non-NULL.

This patch fixes the issue by checking for PF_KTHREAD (just as
get_task_mm()).

e502babe0a sysrq: Fix possible race with exiting task
sysrq should grab the tasklist lock, otherwise calling force_sig() is
not safe, as it might race with exiting task, which ->sighand might be
set to NULL already.

ff01bb4832 fs: move code out of buffer.c
Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c.  Export
kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it.  Reduce
buffer_head.h requirement accordingly.

Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit
obsolete to bother moving.  The small comment replacing it says enough.

b2b755b5f1 lib, arch: add filter argument to show_mem and fix private implementations
Commit ddd588b5dd ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from
meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which
resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
versions of show_mem():

	lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
	show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
	arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here

The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
all implementations to prevent this breakage.

Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
generic implementation.
