91facc22de led_class: fix typo in blink API
When I added led_blink_set I had a typo: the return value of the hw
offload is a regular error code that is zero when succesful, and in that
case software emulation should not be used, rather than the other way
around.

one too big and thus destroyed the neighbouring register causing the clock

d153ba6445 writeback: do uninterruptible sleep in balance_dirty_pages()
Using TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE in balance_dirty_pages() seems wrong.  If it's
going to do that then it must break out if signal_pending(), otherwise
it's pretty much guaranteed to degenerate into a busywait loop.  Plus we
*do* want these processes to appear in D state and to contribute to load
average.

So it should be TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE.                 -- Andrew Morton

f06328d772 logfs: fix "Kernel BUG at readwrite.c:1193"
This happens when __logfs_create() tries to write a new inode to the disk
which is full.

__logfs_create() associates the transaction pointer with inode.  During
the logfs_write_inode() function call chain this transaction pointer is
moved from inode to page->private using function move_inode_to_page
(do_write_inode() -> inode_to_page() -> move_inode_to_page)

When the write inode fails, the transaction is aborted and iput is called
on the failed inode.  During delete_inode the same transaction pointer
associated with the page is getting used.  Thus causing kernel BUG.

The patch checks for error in write_inode() and restores the page->private
to NULL.

eabb26cacd logfs: fix deadlock in logfs_get_wblocks, hold and wait on super->s_write_mutex
do_logfs_journal_wl_pass() should use GFP_NOFS for memory allocation GC
code calls btree_insert32 with GFP_KERNEL while holding a mutex
super->s_write_mutex.

The same mutex is used in address_space_operations->writepage(), and a
call to writepage() could be triggered as a result of memory allocation
in btree_insert32, causing a deadlock.

7a2d19bced mm: vmscan: tracepoint: account for scanned pages similarly for both ftrace and vmstat
When correlating ftrace results with /proc/vmstat, I noticed that the
reporting scripts value for "pages scanned" differed significantly.  Both
values were "right" depending on how you look at it.

The difference is due to vmstat only counting scanning of the inactive
list towards pages scanned.  The analysis script for the tracepoint counts
active and inactive list yielding a far higher value than vmstat.  The
resulting scanning/reclaim ratio looks much worse.  The tracepoint is ok
but this patch updates the reporting script so that the report values for
scanned are similar to vmstat.

762e30239c atl1c: Do not use legacy PCI power management
The atl1c driver uses the legacy PCI power management, so it has to
do some PCI-specific things in its ->suspend() and ->resume()
callbacks and they are not done correctly.

Convert atl1c to the new PCI power management framework and make it
let the PCI subsystem handle all of the PCI-specific aspects of
device handling during system power transitions.

ee09b3c1cf sfq: fix sfq class stats handling
sfq_walk() runs without qdisc lock. By the time it selects a non empty
hash slot and sfq_dump_class_stats() is run (with lock held), slot might
have been freed : We then access q->slots[SFQ_EMPTY_SLOT], out of
bounds, and crash in slot_queue_walk()

On previous kernels, bug is here but out of bounds qs[SFQ_DEPTH] and
allot[SFQ_DEPTH] are located in struct sfq_sched_data, so no illegal
memory access happens, only possibly wrong data reported to user.

Also, slot_dequeue_tail() should make sure slot skb chain is correctly
terminated, or sfq_dump_class_stats() can access freed skbs.

Since the libdwfl library before 0.148 fails to analyze live kernel debuginfo,
'perf probe --list' compiled with those old libdwfl sometimes crashes.

To avoid that bug, perf probe does not use libdwfl's live kernel analysis
routine when it is compiled with older libdwfl.

Side effect: perf with older libdwfl doesn't support listing probe in modules
with source code line. Those could be shown by symbol+offset.

da521b2c4f net: Fix range checks in tcf_valid_offset().
This function has three bugs:

1) The offset should be valid most of the time, this is just
   a sanity check, therefore we should use "likely" not "unlikely"

2) This is the only place where we can check for arithmetic overflow
   of the pointer plus the length.

3) The existing range checks are off by one, the valid range is
   skb->head to skb_tail_pointer(), inclusive.

12b16dadbc filter: optimize accesses to ancillary data
We can translate pseudo load instructions at filter check time to
dedicated instructions to speed up filtering and avoid one switch().
libpcap currently uses SKF_AD_PROTOCOL, but custom filters probably use
other ancillary accesses.

Note : I made the assertion that ancillary data was always accessed with
BPF_LD|BPF_?|BPF_ABS instructions, not with BPF_LD|BPF_?|BPF_IND ones
(offset given by K constant, not by K + X register)

On x86_64, this saves a few bytes of text :

4b97f8e108 bnx2x: remove bogus check
We dereferenced params on the line before so it's too late to check if
params is NULL.  In fact, params can never be NULL and strict_cos is
either 0 or 1 so that part of the check is bogus too.  Let's remove it.

[PATCH net-next-2.6] net: timestamp cloned packet in dev_queue_xmit_nit

Now we do one clone of skb if at least one sniffer might take packet,
we also can do the skb timestamping on the clone and let original packet
unchanged.

This is a generalization of commit 8caf153974 (net: sch_netem: Fix an
inconsistency in ingress netem timestamps.)

This way, we can have a good idea when packets are delivered to our
stack (tcpdump -i ifb0), while a tcpdump on original device gives
timestamps right before ingressing.

This also speedup our stack, avoiding taking timestamps if not needed.
