f664f1f9b7 revert "ufs: Fix mount check in ufs_fill_super()"
Evgeniy said:

  I wonder on what type of UFS do you test this patch?  NetBSD and FreeBSD
  do not use "fs_state", they use "fs_clean" flag, only Solaris does check
  like this: fs_state + fs_time == FSOK.

  That's why parentheses was like that.

  At now with linux-2.6.24-rc1-git1, I get: fs need fsck, but NetBSD's fsck
  says that's all ok.

  I suggest revert this patch.

487e9bf25c fix tmpfs BUG and AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE
It's possible to provoke unionfs (not yet in mainline, though in mm and
some distros) to hit shmem_writepage's BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)).  I expect
it's possible to provoke the 2.6.23 ecryptfs in the same way (but the
2.6.24 ecryptfs no longer calls lower level's ->writepage).

This came to light with the recent find that AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE could
leak from tmpfs via write_cache_pages and unionfs to userspace.  There's
already a fix (e423003028 - writeback: don't
propagate AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE) in the tree for that, and it's okay so
far as it goes; but insufficient because it doesn't address the underlying
issue, that shmem_writepage expects to be called only by vmscan (relying on
backing_dev_info capabilities to prevent the normal writeback path from
ever approaching it).

That's an increasingly fragile assumption, and ramdisk_writepage (the other
source of AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATEs) is already careful to check
wbc->for_reclaim before returning it.  Make the same check in
shmem_writepage, thereby sidestepping the page_mapped BUG also.

8bca44bbd3 mm/sparse-vmemmap.c: make sure init_mm is included
mm/sparse-vmemmap.c uses init_mm in some places.  However, it is not
present in any of the headers currently included in the file.

init_mm is defined as extern in sched.h, so we add it to the headers list

Up to now, this problem was masked by the fact that functions like
set_pte_at() and pmd_populate_kernel() are usually macros that expand to
simpler variants that does not use the first parameter at all.

6a22c57b8d Revert "x86_64: allocate sparsemem memmap above 4G"
This reverts commit 2e1c49db4c.

First off, testing in Fedora has shown it to cause boot failures,
bisected down by Martin Ebourne, and reported by Dave Jobes.  So the
commit will likely be reverted in the 2.6.23 stable kernels.

Secondly, in the 2.6.24 model, x86-64 has now grown support for
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, which disables the relevant code anyway, so while the
bug is not visible any more, it's become invisible due to the code just
being irrelevant and no longer enabled on the only architecture that
this ever affected.

    sched: clean up code under CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED

Introduced an assumption of the existence of CPU0 via this line

cfs_rq = tg->cfs_rq[0];

If you have no CPU0, that will be NULL.  The fix seems to be just to
take whatever cfs_rq queue comes out of the for_each_possible_cpu()
loop, since they're all equally good for the destruction operation.

a76ab5c10d [MIPS] MT: Fix bug in multithreaded kernels.
When GDB writes a breakpoint into address area of inferior process the
kernel needs to invalidate the modified memory in the inferior which
is done by calling flush_cache_page which in turns calls
r4k_flush_cache_page and local_r4k_flush_cache_page for VSMP or SMTC
kernel via r4k_on_each_cpu().

As the VSMP and SMTC SMP kernels for 34K are running on a single shared
caches it is possible to get away without interprocessor function calls.
This optimization is implemented in r4k_on_each_cpu, so
local_r4k_flush_cache_page is only ever called on the local CPU.

This is where the following code in local_r4k_flush_cache_page() strikes:

        /*
         * If ownes no valid ASID yet, cannot possibly have gotten
         * this page into the cache.
         */
        if (cpu_context(smp_processor_id(), mm) == 0)
                return;

On VSMP and SMTC had a function of cpu_context() for each CPU(TC).

So in case another CPU than the CPU executing local_r4k_cache_flush_page
has not accessed the mm but one of the other CPUs has there may be data
to be flushed in the cache yet local_r4k_cache_flush_page will falsely
return leaving the I-cache inconsistent for the breakpoint.

While the issue was discovered with GDB it also exists in
local_r4k_flush_cache_range() and local_r4k_flush_cache().

Fixed by introducing a new function has_valid_asid which on MT kernels
returns true if a mm is active on any processor in the system.

This is relativly expensive since for memory acccesses in that loop
cache misses have to be assumed but it seems the most viable solution
for 2.6.23 and older -stable kernels.

21b2aecaae [MIPS] c-r3k: Implement flush_cache_range()
Contrary to the belief of some, the R3000 and related processors did have
caches, both a data and an instruction cache.  Here is an implementation
of r3k_flush_cache_page(), which is the processor-specific back-end for
flush_cache_range(), done according to the spec in
Documentation/cachetlb.txt.

While at it, remove an unused local function: get_phys_page(), do some
trivial formatting fixes and modernise debugging facilities.

A comment on ptrace_getregs() states "Registers are sign extended to

comment.  Also fix casts on each caller to get rid of some warnings.
