ce82653d6c radix_tree_tag_get() is not as safe as the docs make out [ver #2]
radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set()
or radix_tree_tag_clear().  The problem is that the double tag_get() in
radix_tree_tag_get():

		if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset))
			saw_unset_tag = 1;
		if (height == 1) {
			int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset);

may see the value change due to the action of set/clear.  RCU is no protection
against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced
according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly.

The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that
radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying
the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any
functions reading the tree".

The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the
tag doesn't vary over time:

			BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag);

This has been seen happening in FS-Cache:

	https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html

To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various
comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held,
and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon
unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from
running concurrently with it.

d3e06e2b15 slub: Fix kmem_ptr_validate() for non-kernel pointers
As suggested by Linus, fix up kmem_ptr_validate() to handle non-kernel pointers
more graciously. The patch changes kmem_ptr_validate() to use the newly
introduced kern_ptr_validate() helper to check that a pointer is a valid kernel
pointer before we attempt to convert it into a 'struct page'.

7d3f661e57 [S390] increase default size of vmalloc area
The default size of the vmalloc area is currently 1 GB. The memory resource
controller uses about 10 MB of vmalloc space per gigabyte of memory. That
turns a system with more than ~100 GB memory unbootable with the default
vmalloc size. It costs us nothing to increase the default size to some
more adequate value, e.g. 128 GB.

6af7eea2ae [S390] s390: disable change bit override
commit 6a985c6194
([S390] s390: use change recording override for kernel mapping)
deactivated the change bit recording for the kernel mapping to
improve the performance. This works most of the time, but there
are cases (e.g. kernel runs in home space, futex atomic compare xcmg)
where we modify user memory with the kernel mapping instead of the
user mapping.
Instead of fixing these cases, this patch just deactivates change bit
override to avoid future problems with other kernel code that might
use the kernel mapping for user memory.

176b1803ce [S390] fix io_return critical section cleanup
If a machine check interrupts the io interrupt handler on one of the
instructions between io_return and io_leave the critical section
cleanup code will move the return psw to io_work_loop. By doing that
the switch from the asynchronous interrupt stack to the process stack
is skipped. If e.g. TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set things break because
the scheduler is called with the asynchronous interrupts stack.
Moving the psw back to io_return instead fixes the problem.

3440c49f5c cfq-iosched: Fix the incorrect timeslice accounting with forced_dispatch
When CFQ dispatches requests forcefully due to a barrier or changing iosched,
it runs through all cfqq's dispatching requests and then expires each queue.
However, it does not activate a cfqq before flushing its IOs resulting in
using stale values for computing slice_used.
This patch fixes it by calling activate queue before flushing reuqests from
each queue.

This is useful mostly for barrier requests because when the iosched is changing
it really doesnt matter if we have incorrect accounting since we're going to
break down all structures anyway.

We also now expire the current timeslice before moving on with the dispatch
to accurately account slice used for that cfqq.

45c4d015a9 libata: Fix accesses at LBA28 boundary (old bug, but nasty) (v2)
Most drives from Seagate, Hitachi, and possibly other brands,
do not allow LBA28 access to sector number 0x0fffffff (2^28 - 1).
So instead use LBA48 for such accesses.

This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has
taken care to align partitions to 4KB boundaries. On misaligned systems,
it is less likely to be encountered, since a 4KB read would end at
0x10000000 rather than at 0x0fffffff.

320718ee07 hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_remove
I don't claim to understand the tty layer, but it seems like hvc_open and
hvc_close should be balanced in their kref reference counting.

Right now we get a kref every call to hvc_open:

        if (hp->count++ > 0) {
                tty_kref_get(tty); <----- here
                spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hp->lock, flags);
                hvc_kick();
                return 0;
        } /* else count == 0 */

        tty->driver_data = hp;

        hp->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); <------ or here if hp->count was 0

But hvc_close has:

        tty_kref_get(tty);

        if (--hp->count == 0) {
...
                /* Put the ref obtained in hvc_open() */
                tty_kref_put(tty);
...
        }

        tty_kref_put(tty);

Since the outside kref get/put balance we only do a single kref_put when
count reaches 0.

The patch below changes things to call tty_kref_put once for every
hvc_close call, and with that my machine boots fine.
