22ddc55638 exofs: Recover in the case of read-passed-end-of-file
In check_io, implement the case of reading passed end of
file, by clearing the pages and recover with no error. In
a raid arrangement this can become a legitimate situation
in case of holes in the file.

a7016235a6 mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swapping
After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's
5f8dcc2121 "page-allocator: split per-cpu
list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE
pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves.

Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads
of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is
already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it.

How did this bug show up?  As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild
swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator.  Bisecting to that
commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy.

The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even
less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones
than x86, I think that may be a factor).  We guess that lumpy reclaim
of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably
this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim.

But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and
imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up
the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.

05d43ed8a8 x86: get rid of the insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit
Now that the previous commit made it possible to do the personality
setting at the point of no return, we do just that for ELF binaries.
And suddenly all the reasons for that insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit go
away, and we can just make SET_PERSONALITY() just do the obvious thing
for a 32-bit compat process.

Everything becomes much more straightforward this way.

221af7f87b Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions
'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
it is pretty badly misnamed.  It doesn't just flush the old executable
environment, it also starts up the new one.

Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.

As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
(TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
the actual personality magic.

This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
(still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()).  All callers are changed
to trivially comply with the new world order.

035fe03a7a Btrfs: check total number of devices when removing missing
If you have a disk failure in RAID1 and then add a new disk to the
array, and then try to remove the missing volume, it will fail.  The
reason is the sanity check only looks at the total number of rw devices,
which is just 2 because we have 2 good disks and 1 bad one.  Instead
check the total number of devices in the array to make sure we can
actually remove the device.  Tested this with a failed disk setup and
with this test we can now run

btrfs-vol -r missing /mount/point

and it works fine.

Hit this problem while testing RAID1 failure stuff.  open_bdev_exclusive
returns ERR_PTR(), not NULL.  So change the return value properly.  This
is important if you accidently specify a device that doesn't exist when
trying to add a new device to an array, you will panic the box
dereferencing bdev.

f48b90756b Btrfs: do not mark the chunk as readonly if in degraded mode
If a RAID setup has chunks that span multiple disks, and one of those
disks has failed, btrfs_chunk_readonly will return 1 since one of the
disks in that chunk's stripes is dead and therefore not writeable.  So
instead if we are in degraded mode, return 0 so we can go ahead and
allocate stuff.  Without this patch all of the block groups in a RAID1
setup will end up read-only, which will mean we can't add new disks to
the array since we won't be able to make allocations.

This patch revert's commit

6c090a11e1

Since it introduces this problem where we can run orphan cleanup on a
volume that can have orphan entries re-added.  Instead of my original
fix, Yan Zheng pointed out that we can just revert my original fix and
then run the orphan cleanup in open_ctree after we look up the fs_root.
I have tested this with all the tests that gave me problems and this

a555f810af Btrfs: Add mount -o compress-force
The default btrfs mount -o compress mode will quickly back off
compressing a file if it notices that compression does not reduce the
size of the data being written.  This can save considerable CPU because
all future writes to the file go through uncompressed.

But some files are both very large and have mixed data stored in
them.  In that case, we want to add the ability to always try
compressing data before writing it.

This commit adds mount -o compress-force.  A later commit will add
a new inode flag that does the same thing.

010c108d7a MIPS: PowerTV: Fix support for timer interrupts with > 64 external IRQs
The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a
greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific
registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine
which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work.

On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register,
specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses
that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected
to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.

9c4a6fce20 MIPS: Fix vmlinuz build for 32bit-only math shells
POSIX requires $((<expression>)) arithmetic in sh only to have long
arithmetic so on 32-bit sh binaries might do only 32-bit arithmetic but
the arithmetic done in arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile needs 64-bit.

I play with the AR7 platform, so VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS is
0xffffffff94100000, and for an example 4MiB kernel
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS is made out to be:
----
alex@berk:~$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
ffffffff94500000
alex@berk:~$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
80000000003fffff
----

The former is obviously correct whilst the later breaks things royally.

Fortunately working with only the lower 32bit's works for both bash and
dash:
----
$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
----

So, we can split the original 64bit string to two parts, and only
calculate the low 32bit part, which is big enough (1GiB kernel sizes
anyone?) for a normal Linux kernel image file, now, we calculate the
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS like this:

1. if present, append top 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS" as a prefix
2. get the sum of the low 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS + VMLINUX_SIZE

This patch fixes vmlinuz kernel builds on systems where only a
32bit-only math shell is available.

Patch Changelog:
  Version 2
    - simplified method by using 'expr' for 'substr' and making it work
	with dash once again
  Version 1
    - Revert the removals of '-n "$(VMLINUX_SIZE)"' to avoid the error
        of "make clean"
    - Consider more cases of the VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS
  Version 0

4bdadb9785 drm/i915: Selectively enable self-reclaim
Having missed the ENOMEM return via i915_gem_fault(), there are probably
other paths that I also missed. By not enabling NORETRY by default these
paths can run the shrinker and take memory from the system (but not from
our own inactive lists because our shrinker can not run whilst we hold
the struct mutex) and this may allow the system to survive a little longer
whilst our drivers consume all available memory.

7a48143678 firewire: ohci: fix crashes with TSB43AB23 on 64bit systems
Unsurprisingly, Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 exhibits the same behaviour
as TSB43AB22/A in dual buffer IR DMA mode:  If descriptors are located
at physical addresses above the 31 bit address range (2 GB), the
controller will overwrite random memory.  With luck, this merely
prevents video reception.  With only a little less luck, the machine
crashes.

We use the same workaround here as with TSB43AB22/A:  Switch off the
dual buffer capability flag and use packet-per-buffer IR DMA instead.
Another possible workaround would be to limit the coherent DMA mask to
31 bits.

In Linux 2.6.33, this change serves effectively only as documentation
since dual buffer mode is not used for any controller anymore.  But
somebody might want to re-enable it in the future to make use of
features of dual buffer DMA that are not available in packet-per-buffer
mode.

In Linux 2.6.32 and older, this update is vital for anyone with this
controller, more than 2 GB RAM, a 64 bit kernel, and FireWire video or
audio applications.

We have at least four reports:

0531b2aac5 mm: add new 'read_cache_page_gfp()' helper function
It's a simplified 'read_cache_page()' which takes a page allocation
flag, so that different paths can control how aggressive the memory
allocations are that populate a address space.

In particular, the intel GPU object mapping code wants to be able to do
a certain amount of own internal memory management by automatically
shrinking the address space when memory starts getting tight.  This
allows it to dynamically use different memory allocation policies on a
per-allocation basis, rather than depend on the (static) address space
gfp policy.

The actual new function is a one-liner, but re-organizing the helper
functions to the point where you can do this with a single line of code
is what most of the patch is all about.

21ec7f6dbf [S390] fix single stepped svcs with TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y
If irq flags tracing is enabled the TRACE_IRQS_ON macros expands to
a function call which clobbers registers %r0-%r5. The macro is used
in the code path for single stepped system calls. The argument
registers %r2-%r6 need to be restored from the stack before the system
call function is called.

In a case where the number of the input data is bigger than the
modulus of the key, the coprocessor adapters will report an 8/72
error. This case is not caught yet, thus the adapter will be taken
offline. To prevent this, we return an -EINVAL instead.

When opening a SCLP VT220 terminal, the terminal window size is not

Since the SCLP VT220 terminal supports only 80x24, explicitly set
the window size to prevent (n)curses applications from guessing
the default setting.
