bf5e5834bf pl2303: Fix mode switching regression
Cleaning out all the incorrect 'no change made' checks for termios
settings showed up a problem with the PL2303. The hardware here seems to
lose sync and bits if you tell it to make no changes. This shows up with
a real world application.

To fix this the driver check for meaningful hardware changes is restored
but doing the tests correctly and as a tty layer function so it doesn't
get duplicated wrongly everywhere if other drivers turn out to need it.

a263898f62 CPU hotplug: fix cpu_is_offline() on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
make randconfig bootup testing found that the cpufreq code
crashes on bootup, if the powernow-k8 driver is enabled and
if maxcpus=1 passed on the boot line to a !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
kernel.

First lockdep found out that there's an inconsistent unlock
sequence:

 =====================================
 [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
 -------------------------------------
 swapper/1 is trying to release lock (&per_cpu(cpu_policy_rwsem, cpu)) at:
 [<ffffffff806ffd8e>] unlock_policy_rwsem_write+0x3c/0x42
 but there are no more locks to release!

Call Trace:
 [<ffffffff806ffd8e>] unlock_policy_rwsem_write+0x3c/0x42

 [<ffffffff807008b6>] cpufreq_add_dev+0x2a8/0x5c4
 ...

then shortly afterwards the cpufreq code crashed on an assert:

 ------------[ cut here ]------------
 kernel BUG at drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c:1068!
 invalid opcode: 0000 [1] SMP
 [...]
 Call Trace:
  [<ffffffff805145d6>] sysdev_driver_unregister+0x5b/0x91

  [<ffffffff80cc0596>] powernowk8_init+0x86/0x94
 [...]
 ---[ end trace 1e9219be2b4431de ]---

the bug was caused by maxcpus=1 bootup, which brought up the
secondary core as !cpu_online() but !cpu_is_offline() either,
which on on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is always 0 (include/linux/cpu.h):

  /* CPUs don't go offline once they're online w/o CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU */
  static inline int cpu_is_offline(int cpu) { return 0; }

but the cpufreq code uses cpu_online() and cpu_is_offline() in
a mixed way - the low-level drivers use cpu_online(), while
the cpufreq core uses cpu_is_offline(). This opened up the
possibility to add the non-initialized sysdev device of the
secondary core:

 cpufreq-core: trying to register driver powernow-k8
 cpufreq-core: adding CPU 0
 powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects
 cpufreq-core: initialization failed
 cpufreq-core: adding CPU 1
 cpufreq-core: initialization failed

which then blew up. The fix is to make cpu_is_offline() always
the negation of cpu_online(). With that fix applied the kernel
boots up fine without crashing:

 Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94()
 powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ processors (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)
 powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects
 initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94() returned -19.
 initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510 ran for 19 msecs: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94()
 Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc328f: init_lapic_nmi_sysfs+0x0/0x39()

We could fix this by making CPU enumeration aware of max_cpus, but that
would be more fragile IMO, and the cpu_online(cpu) != cpu_is_offline(cpu)
possibility was quite confusing and a continuous source of bugs too.

Most distributions have kernels with CPU hotplug enabled, so this bug
remained hidden for a long time.

Bug forensics:

The broken cpu_is_offline() API variant was introduced via:

 commit a59d2e4e6977e7b94e003c96a41f07e96cddc340
 Author: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
 Date:   Mon Mar 8 06:06:03 2004 -0800

     [PATCH] minor cleanups for hotplug CPUs

( this predates linux-2.6.git, this commit is available from Thomas's
  historic git tree. )

Then 1.5 years later the cpufreq code made use of it:

 commit c32b6b8e52
 Author: Ashok Raj <ashok.raj@intel.com>
 Date:   Sun Oct 30 14:59:54 2005 -0800

     [PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers

 +       if (cpu_is_offline(cpu))
 +               return 0;

which is a correct use of the subtly broken new API. v2.6.15 then
shipped with this bug included.

then it took two more years for random-kernel qa to hit it.

7b3d9545f9 Revert "scsi: revert "[SCSI] Get rid of scsi_cmnd->done""
This reverts commit ac40532ef0, which gets
us back the original cleanup of 6f5391c283.

It turns out that the bug that was triggered by that commit was
apparently not actually triggered by that commit at all, and just the
testing conditions had changed enough to make it appear to be due to it.

The real problem seems to have been found by Peter Osterlund:

  "pktcdvd sets it [block device size] when opening the /dev/pktcdvd
   device, but when the drive is later opened as /dev/scd0, there is
   nothing that sets it back.  (Btw, 40944 is possible if the disk is a
   CDRW that was formatted with "cdrwtool -m 10236".)

   The problem is that pktcdvd opens the cd device in non-blocking mode
   when pktsetup is run, and doesn't close it again until pktsetup -d is
   run.  The effect is that if you meanwhile open the cd device,
   blkdev.c:do_open() doesn't call bd_set_size() because
   bdev->bd_openers is non-zero."

In particular, to repeat the bug (regardless of whether commit
6f5391c283 is applied or not):

  " 1. Start with an empty drive.
    2. pktsetup 0 /dev/scd0
    3. Insert a CD containing an isofs filesystem.
    4. mount /dev/pktcdvd/0 /mnt/tmp
    5. umount /mnt/tmp
    6. Press the eject button.
    7. Insert a DVD containing a non-writable filesystem.
    8. mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/tmp
    9. find /mnt/tmp -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sha1sum >/dev/null
    10. If the DVD contains data beyond the physical size of a CD, you
        get I/O errors in the terminal, and dmesg reports lots of
        "attempt to access beyond end of device" errors."

which in turn is because the nested open after the media change won't
cause the size to be set properly (because the original open still holds
the block device, and we only do the bd_set_size() when we don't have
other people holding the device open).

The proper fix for that is probably to just do something like

	bdev->bd_inode->i_size = (loff_t)get_capacity(disk)<<9;

in fs/block_dev.c:do_open() even for the cases where we're not the
original opener (but *not* call bd_set_size(), since that will also
change the block size of the device).

158a962422 Unify /proc/slabinfo configuration
Both SLUB and SLAB really did almost exactly the same thing for
/proc/slabinfo setup, using duplicate code and per-allocator #ifdef's.

This just creates a common CONFIG_SLABINFO that is enabled by both SLUB

day too.

fae718ddaf [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_ipv4: fix module parameter compatibility
Some users do "modprobe ip_conntrack hashsize=...". Since we have the
module aliases this loads nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack, the
hashsize parameter is unknown for nf_conntrack_ipv4 however and makes
it fail.

Allow to specify hashsize= for both nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack_ipv4.

Note: the nf_conntrack message in the ringbuffer will display an
incorrect hashsize since nf_conntrack is first pulled in as a
dependency and calculates the size itself, then it gets changed
through a call to nf_conntrack_set_hashsize().

29b6cd794e x86: jprobe bugfix
jprobe for x86-64 may cause kernel page fault when the jprobe_return()
is called from incorrect function.

- Use jprobe_saved_regs instead getting it from stack.
  (Especially on x86-64, it may get incorrect data, because
   pt_regs can not be get by using container_of(rsp))
- Change the type of stack pointer to unsigned long *.

b019e57321 genirq: add unlocked version of set_irq_handler()
Add unlocked version for use by irq_chip.set_type handlers which may
wish to change handler to level or edge handler when IRQ type is
changed.

The normal set_irq_handler() call cannot be used because it tries to
take irq_desc.lock which is already held when the irq_chip.set_type
hook is called.

368d2c6358 Revert "hugetlb: Add hugetlb_dynamic_pool sysctl"
This reverts commit 54f9f80d65 ("hugetlb:
Add hugetlb_dynamic_pool sysctl")

Given the new sysctl nr_overcommit_hugepages, the boolean dynamic pool
sysctl is not needed, as its semantics can be expressed by 0 in the
overcommit sysctl (no dynamic pool) and non-0 in the overcommit sysctl
(pool enabled).

(Needed in 2.6.24 since it reverts a post-2.6.23 userspace-visible change)

d1c3fb1f8f hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctl
hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctl

While examining the code to support /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_dynamic_pool, I
became convinced that having a boolean sysctl was insufficient:

1) To support per-node control of hugepages, I have previously submitted
patches to add a sysfs attribute related to nr_hugepages. However, with
a boolean global value and per-mount quota enforcement constraining the
dynamic pool, adding corresponding control of the dynamic pool on a
per-node basis seems inconsistent to me.

2) Administration of the hugetlb dynamic pool with multiple hugetlbfs
mount points is, arguably, more arduous than it needs to be. Each quota
would need to be set separately, and the sum would need to be monitored.

To ease the administration, and to help make the way for per-node
control of the static & dynamic hugepage pool, I added a separate
sysctl, nr_overcommit_hugepages. This value serves as a high watermark
for the overall hugepage pool, while nr_hugepages serves as a low
watermark. The boolean sysctl can then be removed, as the condition

	nr_overcommit_hugepages > 0

indicates the same administrative setting as

	hugetlb_dynamic_pool == 1

Quotas still serve as local enforcement of the size of the pool on a
per-mount basis.

A few caveats:

1) There is a race whereby the global surplus huge page counter is
incremented before a hugepage has allocated. Another process could then
try grow the pool, and fail to convert a surplus huge page to a normal
huge page and instead allocate a fresh huge page. I believe this is
benign, as no memory is leaked (the actual pages are still tracked
correctly) and the counters won't go out of sync.

2) Shrinking the static pool while a surplus is in effect will allow the
number of surplus huge pages to exceed the overcommit value. As long as
this condition holds, however, no more surplus huge pages will be
allowed on the system until one of the two sysctls are increased
sufficiently, or the surplus huge pages go out of use and are freed.

Successfully tested on x86_64 with the current libhugetlbfs snapshot,
modified to use the new sysctl.

9548b209a3 alpha: build fixes
This fixes some of the alpha-specific build problems, except a) modpost
warning about COMMON symbol "saved_config" and b) nasty final link
failure with gcc-4.x, -Os and scsi-disk driver configured built-in
(due to jump table in .rodata referencing discarded .exit.text).

- build failure with gcc-4.2.x: fix up casts in cia_io* routines to avoid
  warnings ('discards qualifiers from pointer target type'), which are
  failures, thanks to -Werror;
- modpost warnings: add missing __init qualifier for titan and marvel;
  for non-generic build, move machine vectors from .data to .data.init.refok
  section;
- unbreak CPU-specific optimization: rearrange cpuflags-y assignments
  so that extended -mcpu value (ev56, pca56, ev67) overrides basic
  one (ev5, ev6) and not vice versa.

140b5e5911 libata: fix ATAPI draining
With ATAPI transfer chunk size properly programmed, libata PIO HSM
should be able to handle full spurious data chunks.  Also, it's a good
idea to suppress trailing data warning for misc ATAPI commands as
there can be many of them per command - for example, if the chunk size
is 16 and the drive tries to transfer 510 bytes, there can be 31
trailing data messages.

This patch makes the following updates to libata ATAPI PIO HSM
implementation.

* Make it drain full spurious chunks.

* Suppress trailing data warning message for misc commands.

* Put limit on how many bytes can be drained.

* If odd, round up consumed bytes and the number of bytes to be
  drained.  This gets the number of bytes to drain right for drivers
  which do 16bit PIO.

This patch is partial backport of improve-ATAPI-data-xfer patchset
pending for #upstream.

398e07826b libata-acpi: implement dev->gtf_cache and evaluate _GTF right after _STM during resume
On certain implementations, _GTF evaluation depends on preceding _STM
and both can be pretty picky about the configuration.  Using _GTM
result cached during controller initialization satisfies the most
neurotic _STM implementation.  However, libata evaluates _GTF after
reset during device configuration and the hardware state can be
different from what _GTF expects and can cause evaluation failure.

This patch adds dev->gtf_cache and updates ata_dev_get_GTF() such that
it uses the cached value if available.  Cache is cleared with a call
to ata_acpi_clear_gtf().

Because for SATA ACPI nodes _GTF must be evaluated after _SDD which
can't be done till IDENTIFY is complete, _GTF caching from
ata_acpi_on_resume() is used only for IDE ACPI nodes.

c05e6ff035 libata-acpi: implement and use ata_acpi_init_gtm()
_GTM fetches currently configured transfer mode while _STM configures
controller according to _GTM parameter and prepares transfer mode
configuration TFs for _GTF.  In many cases _GTM and _STM
implementations are quite brittle and can't cope with configuration
changed by libata.

libata does not depend on ATA ACPI to configure devices.  The only
reason libata performs _GTM and _STM are to make _GTF evaluation
succeed and libata also doesn't care about how _GTF TFs configure
transfer mode.  It overrides that configuration anyway, so from
libata's POV, it doesn't matter what value is feeded to _STM as long
as evaluation succeeds for _STM and following _GTF.

This patch adds dev->__acpi_init_gtm and store initial _GTM values on
host initialization before modified by reset and mode configuration.
If the field is valid, ata_acpi_init_gtm() returns pointer to the
saved _GTM structure; otherwise, NULL.

This saved value is used for _STM during resume and peek at
BIOS/firmware programmed initial timing for later use.  The accessor
is there to make building w/o ACPI easy as dev->__acpi_init doesn't
exist if ACPI is not enabled.

On driver detach, the initial BIOS configuration is restored by
executing _STM with the initial _GTM values such that the next driver
can also use the initial BIOS configured values.
