603d04b201 kgdbts: only use new asm-generic/ptrace.h api when needed
The new instruction_pointer_set helper is defined for people who have
converted to asm-generic/ptrace.h, so don't use it generally unless
the arch needs it (in which case it has been converted).  This should
fix building of kgdb tests for arches not yet converted.

4c49ff3fe1 block: blkdev_get() should access ->bd_disk only after success
d4dc210f69 (block: don't block events on excl write for non-optical
devices) added dereferencing of bdev->bd_disk to test
GENHD_FL_BLOCK_EVENTS_ON_EXCL_WRITE; however, bdev->bd_disk can be
%NULL if open failed which can lead to an oops.

Test the flag after testing open was successful, not before.

a5b2c5b2ad AppArmor: fix oops in apparmor_setprocattr
When invalid parameters are passed to apparmor_setprocattr a NULL deref
oops occurs when it tries to record an audit message. This is because
it is passing NULL for the profile parameter for aa_audit. But aa_audit
now requires that the profile passed is not NULL.

Fix this by passing the current profile on the task that is trying to
setprocattr.

48bdf072c3 ip_options_compile: properly handle unaligned pointer
The current code takes an unaligned pointer and does htonl() on it to
make it big-endian, then does a memcpy().  The problem is that the
compiler decides that since the pointer is to a __be32, it is legal
to optimize the copy into a processor word store.  However, on an
architecture that does not handled unaligned writes in kernel space,
this produces an unaligned exception fault.

The solution is to track the pointer as a "char *" (which removes a bunch
of unpleasant casts in any case), and then just use put_unaligned_be32()
to write the value to memory.

59342f6a6b zd1211rw: fix to work on OHCI
zd1211 devices register 'EP 4 OUT' endpoint as Interrupt type on USB 2.0:

      Endpoint Descriptor:
        bLength                 7
        bDescriptorType         5
        bEndpointAddress     0x04  EP 4 OUT
        bmAttributes            3
          Transfer Type            Interrupt
          Synch Type               None
          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes
        bInterval               1

However on USB 1.1 endpoint becomes Bulk:

      Endpoint Descriptor:
        bLength                 7
        bDescriptorType         5
        bEndpointAddress     0x04  EP 4 OUT
        bmAttributes            2
          Transfer Type            Bulk
          Synch Type               None
          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes
        bInterval               0

Commit 37939810b9 assumed that endpoint is
always interrupt type and changed usb_bulk_msg() calls to usb_interrupt_msg().

Problem here is that usb_bulk_msg() on interrupt endpoint selfcorrects the
call and changes requested pipe to interrupt type (see usb_bulk_msg).
However with usb_interrupt_msg() on bulk endpoint does not correct the
pipe type to bulk, but instead URB is submitted with interrupt type pipe.

So pre-2.6.39 used usb_bulk_msg() and therefore worked with both endpoint
types, however in 2.6.39 usb_interrupt_msg() with bulk endpoint causes
ohci_hcd to fail submitted URB instantly with -ENOSPC and preventing zd1211rw
from working with OHCI.

Fix this by detecting endpoint type and using correct endpoint/pipe types
for URB. Also fix asynchronous zd_usb_iowrite16v_async() to use right
URB type on 'EP 4 OUT'.

66870b1ccd wl12xx: fix oops in sched_scan when forcing a passive scan
Fix kernel oops when trying to use passive scheduled scans.  The
reason was that in passive scans there are no SSIDs, so there was a
NULL pointer dereference.

To solve the problem, we now check the number of SSIDs provided in the
sched_scan request and only access the list if there's one or more
(ie. passive scan is not forced).  We also force all the channels to
be passive by adding the IEEE80211_CHAN_PASSIVE_SCAN flag locally
before the checks in the wl1271_scan_get_sched_scan_channels()
function.

DFS channels were never getting included in the scheduled scans,
because they always contain the passive flag as well and the call was

Fix this by ignoring the passive flag when collecting DFS channels.
Also, move the DFS channels in the channel list before the 5GHz active
channels (this was implemented in the FW differently than specified).

71005be40a libertas: Set command sequence number later to ensure consistency
Before this patch, the command sequence number is being set before
lbs_queue_cmd() adds the command to the queue. However, lbs_queue_cmd()
sometimes forces commands to queue-jump (e.g. CMD_802_11_WAKEUP_CONFIRM).
It currently does this without considering that sequence numbers might need
adjusting to keep things running in order.

Fix this by setting the sequence number at a later stage, just before
we're actually submitting the command to the hardware. Also fixes a
possible race where seqnum was being modified outside of the driver
lock.

d72bce0e67 rcu: Cure load woes
Commit cc3ce5176d (rcu: Start RCU kthreads in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
state) fudges a sleeping task' state, resulting in the scheduler seeing
a TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE task going to sleep, but a TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
task waking up. The result is unbalanced load calculation.

The problem that patch tried to address is that the RCU threads could
stay in UNINTERRUPTIBLE state for quite a while and triggering the hung
task detector due to on-demand wake-ups.

Cure the problem differently by always giving the tasks at least one
wake-up once the CPU is fully up and running, this will kick them out of
the initial UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and into the regular INTERRUPTIBLE
wait state.

[ The alternative would be teaching kthread_create() to start threads as
  INTERRUPTIBLE but that needs a tad more thought. ]

This reverts commit 1b842e91fe.

There is a fundamental ordering race between the early and late probe
paths and the runtime PM tie-in that results in __pm_runtime_resume()
attempting to take a lock that hasn't been initialized yet (which by
proxy also suggests that pm_runtime_init() hasn't yet been run on the
device either, making the entire thing unsafe) -- resulting in instant
death on SMP or on UP with spinlock debugging enabled:

	 sh_tmu.0: used for clock events
	 sh_tmu.0: used for periodic clock events
	BUG: spinlock trylock failure on UP on CPU#0, swapper/0
	 lock: 804db198, .magic: 00000000, .owner: <none>/-1, .owner_cpu: 0
	...

Revert it for now until the ordering issues can be resolved, or we can get
some more help from the runtime PM framework to make this possible.

db7eba292e sh: Fix up asm-generic/ptrace.h fallout.
There was an ordering issue with regards to instruction_pointer() being
used in profile_pc() prior to the asm-generic/ptrace.h include, which
subsequently provided the instruction_pointer() definition. In the
interest of simplicity we simply open-code the regs->pc deref for the
profile_pc() definition instead.

The FP functions were also broken due to a lack of a common regs->fp,
so provide a common GET_FP() that is safe for both architectures in order
to fix up the frame pointer helpers too.

3cebde2413 vfs: shrink_dcache_parent before rmdir, dir rename
The dentry_unhash push-down series missed that shink_dcache_parent needs to
be called prior to rmdir or dir rename to clear DCACHE_REFERENCED and
allow efficient dentry reclaim.

a1706ac4c0 Revert "block: Remove extra discard_alignment from hd_struct."
It was not a good idea to start dereferencing disk->queue from
the fs sysfs strategy for displaying discard alignment. We ran
into first a NULL pointer deref, and after fixing that we sometimes
see unvalid disk->queue pointer values.

Since discard is the only one of the bunch actually looking into
the queue, just revert the change.

This reverts commit 23ceb5b771.

7ab358c23c virtio: add api for delayed callbacks
Add an API that tells the other side that callbacks
should be delayed until a lot of work has been done.
Implement using the new event_idx feature.

Note: it might seem advantageous to let the drivers
ask for a callback after a specific capacity has
been reached. However, as a single head can
free many entries in the descriptor table,
we don't really have a clue about capacity
until get_buf is called. The API is the simplest
to implement at the moment, we'll see what kind of
hints drivers can pass when there's more than one
user of the feature.

a5c262c5fd virtio_ring: support event idx feature
Support for the new event idx feature:
1. When enabling interrupts, publish the current avail index
   value to the host to get interrupts on the next update.
2. Use the new avail_event feature to reduce the number
   of exits from the guest.

Simple test with the simulator:

[virtio]# time ./virtio_test
spurious wakeus: 0x7

real    0m0.169s
user    0m0.140s
sys     0m0.019s
[virtio]# time ./virtio_test --no-event-idx
spurious wakeus: 0x11

real    0m0.649s
user    0m0.295s
sys     0m0.335s

bf7035bf20 virtio ring: inline function to check for events
With the new used_event and avail_event and features, both
host and guest need similar logic to check whether events are
enabled, so it helps to put the common code in the header.

Note that Xen has similar logic for notification hold-off
in include/xen/interface/io/ring.h with req_event and req_prod
corresponding to event_idx + 1 and new_idx respectively.
+1 comes from the fact that req_event and req_prod in Xen start at 1,
while event index in virtio starts at 0.

a1b383870a virtio: add full three-clause BSD text to headers.
It's unclear to me if it's important, but it's obviously causing my
technical colleages some headaches and I'd hate such imprecision to
slow virtio adoption.

I've emailed this to all non-trivial contributors for approval, too.

bf50e69f63 virtio balloon: kill tell-host-first logic
The virtio balloon driver has a VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST
feature bit.  Whenever the bit is set, the guest kernel must
always tell the host before we free pages back to the allocator.
Without this feature, we might free a page (and have another
user touch it) while the hypervisor is unprepared for it.

But, if the bit is _not_ set, we are under no obligation to
reverse the order; we're under no obligation to do _anything_.
As of now, qemu-kvm defines the bit, but doesn't set it.

This patch makes the "tell host first" logic the only case.  This
should make everybody happy, and reduce the amount of untested or
untestable code in the kernel.

This _also_ means that we don't have to preserve a pfn list
after the pages are freed, which should let us get rid of some
temporary storage (vb->pfns) eventually.
