683eb94777 omap: remove BUG_ON for disabled interrupts
Remove a BUG_ON for when interrupts are disabled during an MMC request.

During boot, interrupts can be disabled when a request is made, causing
this bug to be triggered.  In reality, there's no reason this should halt
the kernel, as the driver has proved reliable in spite of disabled
interrupts, and additionally, there's nothing in this code that would
require interrupts to be enabled.

The only setup I've managed to make it trigger on is on the HTC Herald
during bootup when the driver is built into the kernel (mostly because
that's all I have).  I believe it's related to the fact that on bootup I
get many timeout errors on "CMD5" while initializing the card.  Each CMD5
timeout triggers that bug (I changed it to a WARN_ON to get it to boot in)
due to the fact that part of the timeout code involves sending the request
again.  With interrupts turned off, that BUG would be triggered.

bb21c7ce18 vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages() return value when priority==0 reclaim failure
Greg Thelen reported recent Johannes's stack diet patch makes kernel hang.
 His test is following.

  mount -t cgroup none /cgroups -o memory
  mkdir /cgroups/cg1
  echo $$ > /cgroups/cg1/tasks
  dd bs=1024 count=1024 if=/dev/null of=/data/foo
  echo $$ > /cgroups/tasks
  echo 1 > /cgroups/cg1/memory.force_empty

Actually, This OOM hard to try logic have been corrupted since following
two years old patch.

	commit a41f24ea9f
	Author: Nishanth Aravamudan <nacc@us.ibm.com>
	Date:   Tue Apr 29 00:58:25 2008 -0700

	    page allocator: smarter retry of costly-order allocations

Original intention was "return success if the system have shrinkable zones
though priority==0 reclaim was failure".  But the above patch changed to
"return nr_reclaimed if .....".  Oh, That forgot nr_reclaimed may be 0 if
priority==0 reclaim failure.

And Johannes's patch 0aeb2339e5 ("vmscan: remove all_unreclaimable scan
control") made it more corrupt.  Originally, priority==0 reclaim failure
on memcg return 0, but this patch changed to return 1.  It totally
confused memcg.

This patch fixes it completely.

9e506f7adc kernel/: fix BUG_ON checks for cpu notifier callbacks direct call
The commit 80b5184cc5 ("kernel/: convert cpu
notifier to return encapsulate errno value") changed the return value of
cpu notifier callbacks.

Those callbacks don't return NOTIFY_BAD on failures anymore.  But there
are a few callbacks which are called directly at init time and checking
the return value.

I forgot to change BUG_ON checking by the direct callers in the commit.

94b3dd0f7b cgroups: alloc_css_id() increments hierarchy depth
Child groups should have a greater depth than their parents.  Prior to
this change, the parent would incorrectly report zero memory usage for
child cgroups when use_hierarchy is enabled.

test script:
  mount -t cgroup none /cgroups -o memory
  cd /cgroups
  mkdir cg1

  echo 1 > cg1/memory.use_hierarchy
  mkdir cg1/cg11

  echo $$ > cg1/cg11/tasks
  dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1

  echo
  echo CHILD
  grep cache cg1/cg11/memory.stat

  echo
  echo PARENT
  grep cache cg1/memory.stat

  echo $$ > tasks
  rmdir cg1/cg11 cg1
  cd /
  umount /cgroups

Using fae9c79, a recent patch that changed alloc_css_id() depth computation,
the parent incorrectly reports zero usage:
  root@ubuntu:~# ./test
  1+0 records in
  1+0 records out
  1048576 bytes (1.0 MB) copied, 0.0151844 s, 69.1 MB/s

  CHILD
  cache 1048576
  total_cache 1048576

  PARENT
  cache 0
  total_cache 0

With this patch, the parent correctly includes child usage:
  root@ubuntu:~# ./test
  1+0 records in
  1+0 records out
  1048576 bytes (1.0 MB) copied, 0.0136827 s, 76.6 MB/s

b1413357d9 fbdev: fix frame buffer devices menu
Commit f601441916 ("imxfb: add support for
i.MX25:) has inserted the symbol HAVE_FB_IMX, which does not depend on FB
after the menuconfig FB.  This breaks the menu, presenting most of the
drivers outside of it, when using menuconfig.

Moving the symbol to the start of the file, just like HAVE_FB_ATMEL, fixes
the problem without breaking it for iMX25 configurations (tested with
ARCH=arm, no build).

485d527686 sys_personality: change sys_personality() to accept "unsigned int" instead of u_long
task_struct->pesonality is "unsigned int", but sys_personality() paths use
"unsigned long pesonality".  This means that every assignment or
comparison is not right.  In particular, if this argument does not fit
into "unsigned int" __set_personality() changes the caller's personality
and then sys_personality() returns -EINVAL.

Turn this argument into "unsigned int" and avoid overflows.  Obviously,
this is the user-visible change, we just ignore the upper bits.  But this
can't break the sane application.

There is another thing which can confuse the poorly written applications.
User-space thinks that this syscall returns int, not long.  This means
that the returned value can be negative and look like the error code.  But
note that libc won't be confused and thus errno won't be set, and with
this patch the user-space can never get -1 unless sys_personality() really
fails.  And, most importantly, the negative RET != -1 is only possible if
that app previously called personality(RET).

Although the fix provided is correct, it's been suggested to avoid the
underlying race in the same way as it is currently done in filesystems
like NFS, for maintainability.

A following patch "fb_defio: redo fix for non-dirty ptes" will provide
such an alternate fix.

The stack and data have different alignment requirements, so don't force
them to wear the same shoe.  Increase the data alignment to match that
which the elf2flt linker script has always been using: 0x20 bytes.  Not
only does this bring the kernel loader in line with the toolchain, but it
also fixes a swath of gcc tests which try to force larger alignment values
but randomly fail when the FLAT loader fails to deliver.

af5a30d8cf fix truncate inode time modification breakage
mtime and ctime should be changed only if the file size has actually
changed. Patches changing ext2 and tmpfs from vmtruncate to new truncate
sequence has caused regressions where they always update timestamps.

There is some strange cases in POSIX where truncate(2) must not update
times unless the size has acutally changed, see 6e656be89.

This area is all still rather buggy in different ways in a lot of
filesystems and needs a cleanup and audit (ideally the vfs will provide
a simple attribute or call to direct all filesystems exactly which
attributes to change). But coming up with the best solution will take a
while and is not appropriate for rc anyway.

So fix recent regression for now.

8718d36cf9 fix setattr error handling in sysfs, configfs
sysfs and configfs setattr functions have error cases after the generic inode's
attributes have been changed. Fix consistency by changing the generic inode
attributes only when it is guaranteed to succeed.

5b54470dad fcntl: return -EFAULT if copy_to_user fails
copy_to_user() returns the number of bytes remaining, but we want to
return -EFAULT.
	ret = fcntl(fd, F_SETOWN_EX, NULL);
With the original code ret would be 8 here.

get_sb_single() calls fill_super with superblock locked; calling
deactivate_super() will deadlock immedately.  Moreover, if fill_super
callback returns an error, get_sb_single() will release the reference
to superblock itself just fine.

low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are

5360bd776f Fix up the "generic" unistd.h ABI to be more useful.
Reserve 16 "architecture-specific" syscall numbers starting at 244.

Allow use of the sys_sync_file_range2() API with the generic unistd.h
by specifying __ARCH_WANT_SYNC_FILE_RANGE2 before including it.

Allow using the generic unistd.h to create the "compat" syscall table
by specifying __SYSCALL_COMPAT before including it.

Use sys_fadvise64_64 for __NR3264_fadvise64 in both 32- and 64-bit mode.

Request the appropriate __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_xxx values when
some deprecated syscall modes are selected.

As part of this change to fix up the syscalls, also provide a couple
of missing signal-related syscall prototypes in <linux/syscalls.h>.
