reiserfs: properly honor read-only devices

The reiserfs journal behaves inconsistently when determining whether to
allow a mount of a read-only device.

This is due to the use of the continue_replay variable to short circuit
the journal scanning.  If it's set, it's assumed that there are
transactions to replay, but there may not be.  If it's unset, it's assumed
that there aren't any, and that may not be the case either.

I've observed two failure cases:
1) Where a clean file system on a read-only device refuses to mount
2) Where a clean file system on a read-only device passes the
   optimization and then tries writing the journal header to update
   the latest mount id.

The former is easily observable by using a freshly created file system on
a read-only loopback device.

This patch moves the check into journal_read_transaction, where it can
bail out before it's about to replay a transaction.  That way it can go
through and skip transactions where appropriate, yet still refuse to mount
a file system with outstanding transactions.

The issue is that while creating the privroot during mount

exit: fix oops in sync_mm_rss

In 2.6.34-rc1, removing vhost_net module causes an oops in sync_mm_rss
(called from do_exit) when workqueue is destroyed.  This does not happen
on net-next, or with vhost on top of to 2.6.33.

The issue seems to be introduced by
34e55232e59f7b19050267a05ff1226e5cd122a5 ("mm: avoid false sharing of
mm_counter) which added sync_mm_rss() that is passed task->mm, and
dereferences it without checking.  If task is a kernel thread, mm might be
NULL.  I think this might also happen e.g.  with aio.

This patch fixes the oops by calling sync_mm_rss when task->mm is set to
NULL.  I also added BUG_ON to detect any other cases where counters get
incremented while mm is NULL.

The oops I observed looks like this:

tmpfs: fix oops on mounts with mpol=default

Fix an 'oops' when a tmpfs mount point is mounted with the mpol=default
mempolicy.

Upon remounting a tmpfs mount point with 'mpol=default' option, the mount
code crashed with a null pointer dereference.  The initial problem report
was on 2.6.27, but the problem exists in mainline 2.6.34-rc as well.  On
examining the code, we see that mpol_new returns NULL if default mempolicy
was requested.  This 'NULL' mempolicy is accessed to store the node mask
resulting in oops.

Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt: correct cpu_relax() documentation

cpu_relax() is documented in volatile-considered-harmful.txt to be a

possibly ia64 defines cpu_relax() to be a compiler barrier.

Make the documentation reflect the general concensus.

Linus sayeth:

: I don't think it was ever the intention that it would be seen as anything
: but a compiler barrier, although it is obviously implied that it might
: well perform some per-architecture actions that have "memory barrier-like"
: semantics.
:
: After all, the whole and only point of the "cpu_relax()" thing is to tell
: the CPU that we're busy-looping on some event.
:
: And that "event" might be (and often is) about reading the same memory
: location over and over until it changes to what we want it to be.  So it's
: quite possible that on various architectures the "cpu_relax()" could be
: about making sure that such a tight loop on loads doesn't starve cache
: transactions, for example - and as such look a bit like a memory barrier
: from a CPU standpoint.
:
: But it's not meant to have any kind of architectural memory ordering
: semantics as far as the kernel is concerned - those must come from other
: sources.

[S390] dasd: fix alignment of transport mode recovery TCW

All TCWs need to be aligned on a 64 byte boundary or the I/O will be
rejected. For recovery requests we create fresh TCWs, so we need to

uses shared memory was getting a SEGV.

Commit baed7fc9b580bd3fb8252ff1d9b36eaf1f86b670 ("Add generic sys_ipc
wrapper") changed the second argument from an unsigned long to an int.

extend second (ie the size) which truncates it.  It took a while to
track down because the call succeeds and strace shows the untruncated
size :)

The patch below changes second from an int to an unsigned long which

ipv4: Don't drop redirected route cache entry unless PTMU actually expired

TCP sessions over IPv4 can get stuck if routers between endpoints
do not fragment packets but implement PMTU instead, and we are using
those routers because of an ICMP redirect.

Setup is as follows

       MTU1    MTU2   MTU1
    A--------B------C------D

with MTU1 > MTU2. A and D are endpoints, B and C are routers. B and C
implement PMTU and drop packets larger than MTU2 (for example because
DF is set on all packets). TCP sessions are initiated between A and D.
There is packet loss between A and D, causing frequent TCP
retransmits.

After the number of retransmits on a TCP session reaches tcp_retries1,
tcp calls dst_negative_advice() prior to each retransmit. This results
in route cache entries for the peer to be deleted in
ipv4_negative_advice() if the Path MTU is set.

If the outstanding data on an affected TCP session is larger than
MTU2, packets sent from the endpoints will be dropped by B or C, and
ICMP NEEDFRAG will be returned. A and D receive NEEDFRAG messages and
update PMTU.

Before the next retransmit, tcp will again call dst_negative_advice(),
causing the route cache entry (with correct PMTU) to be deleted. The
retransmitted packet will be larger than MTU2, causing it to be
dropped again.

This sequence repeats until the TCP session aborts or is terminated.

Problem is fixed by removing redirected route cache entries in
ipv4_negative_advice() only if the PMTU is expired.
