sched: fix __set_task_cpu() SMP race
Grant Wilson has reported rare SCHED_FAIR_USER crashes on his quad-core
system, which crashes can only be explained via runqueue corruption.
there is a narrow SMP race in __set_task_cpu(): after ->cpu is set up to
a new value, task_rq_lock(p, ...) can be successfuly executed on another
CPU. We must ensure that updates of per-task data have been completed by
this moment.
this bug has been hiding in the Linux scheduler for an eternity (we never
had any explicit barrier for task->cpu in set_task_cpu() - so the bug was
introduced in 2.5.1), but only became visible via set_task_cfs_rq() being
accidentally put after the task->cpu update. It also probably needs a
sufficiently out-of-order CPU to trigger.

sched: fix SCHED_FIFO tasks & FAIR_GROUP_SCHED
Suppose that the SCHED_FIFO task does
switch_uid(new_user);
Now, p->se.cfs_rq and p->se.parent both point into the old
user_struct->tg because sched_move_task() doesn't call set_task_cfs_rq()
for !fair_sched_class case.
Suppose that old user_struct/task_group is freed/reused, and the task
does
sched_setscheduler(SCHED_NORMAL);
__setscheduler() sets fair_sched_class, but doesn't update
->se.cfs_rq/parent which point to the freed memory.
This means that check_preempt_wakeup() doing
while (!is_same_group(se, pse)) {
se = parent_entity(se);
pse = parent_entity(pse);
}

sched: fix accounting of interrupts during guest execution on s390
Currently the scheduler checks for PF_VCPU to decide if this timeslice
has to be accounted as guest time. On s390 host interrupts are not
disabled during guest execution. This causes theses interrupts to be
accounted as guest time if CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is set. Solution
is to check if an interrupt triggered account_system_time. As the tick
is timer interrupt based, we have to subtract hardirq_offset.
I tested the patch on s390 with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and on
x86_64. Seems to work.

i2c-dev: "how does it work" comments
This adds some "how does this work" comments to the i2c-dev driver,
plus separators between the three main components:
- The parallel list of i2c_adapters ("i2c_dev_list"), each of which
gets a "struct i2c_dev" and a /dev/i2c-X character special file.
- An i2cdev_driver gets adapter add/remove notifications, which are
used to maintain that list of adapters.
- Special file operations, which let userspace talk either directly to
the adapter (for i2c_msg operations) or through cached addressing info
using an anonymous i2c_client (never registered anywhere).
Plus there's the usual module load/unload record keeping.
After making sense of this code, I think that the anonymous i2c_client
is pretty shady. But since it's never registered, using this code with
a system set up for "new style" I2C drivers is no more complicated than
always using the I2C_SLAVE_FORCE ioctl (instead of I2C_SLAVE).

Revert "skge: fix ram buffer size calculation"
This reverts commit
7fb7ac241162dc51ec0f7644d4a97b2855213c32.
Heikki Orsila reports that it causes a regression:
"Doing
nc host port < /dev/zero
on a sending machine (not skge) to an skge machine that is receiving:
nc -l -p port >/dev/null
with ~60 MiB/s speed, causes the interface go malfunct. A slow
transfer doesn't cause a problem."
See
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9321
for some more information.
There is a workaround (also reported by Heikki):
"After some fiddling, I noticed that not changing the register write
order on patch:
+ skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_END), end);
skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_WP), start);
skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_RP), start);
- skge_write32(hw, RB_ADDR(q, RB_END), end);
fixes the visible effect.. Possibly not the root cause of the
problem, but changing the order back fixes networking here."
but that has yet to be ack'ed or tested more widely, so the whole
problem-causing commit gets reverted until this is resolved properly.

CRISv10 serial driver rewrite
New and improved serial driver for CRISv10, take three, with improvements
suggested by Jiri Slaby.
- Call wait_event_interruptible with a _correct_ and sensible condition.
- Removed superfluous test of info->flags & ASYNC_CLOSING, since that is done
by wait_event_interruptible.
- Moved common code for deregistering DMA and IRQ to deinit_port function.
- Use setup_timer when initializing flush_timer.
- Convert bit-field for uses_dma_in and uses_dma_out to regular bytes.
- Removed CVS tags.
- Removed defines and comments for CRIS_BUF_SIZE and TTY_THRESHOLD_THROTTLE
(no longer used).
- Cleaned up code to pass checkpatch.
- Add crisv10.h header file.
- Merge of CRISv10 from Axis internal CVS.

x86: don't call mce_create_device on CPU_UP_PREPARE
Fix regression introduced with
d435d862baca3e25e5eec236762a43251b1e7ffc
("cpu hotplug: mce: fix cpu hotplug error handling").
A CPU which was not brought up during boot (using maxcpus and
additional_cpus parameters) couldn't be onlined anymore. For such a CPU it
seemed that MCE was not supported during CPU_UP_PREPARE-time which caused
mce_cpu_callback to return NOTIFY_BAD to notifier_call_chain. To fix this
we:
- call mce_create_device for CPU_ONLINE event (instead of CPU_UP_PREPARE),
- avoid mce_remove_device() for the CPU that is not correctly initialized
by mce_create_device() failure,
- make mce_cpu_callback always return NOTIFY_OK for CPU_ONLINE event.
Because CPU_ONLINE callback return value is always ignored.

- during system boot hibernate code (from an initcall) locks pm_mutex

__do_IRQ does not check IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is set
In __do_IRQ(), the normal case is that IRQ_DISABLED is checked and if set
the handler (handle_IRQ_event()) is not called.
Earlier in __do_IRQ(), if IRQ_PER_CPU is set the code does not check
IRQ_DISABLED and calls the handler even though IRQ_DISABLED is set. This
behavior seems unintentional.
One user encountering this behavior is the CPE handler (in
arch/ia64/kernel/mca.c). When the CPE handler encounters too many CPEs
(such as a solid single bit error), it sets up a polling timer and disables
the CPE interrupt (to avoid excessive overhead logging the stream of single
bit errors). disable_irq_nosync() is called which sets IRQ_DISABLED. The
IRQ_PER_CPU flag was previously set (in ia64_mca_late_init()). The net
result is the CPE handler gets called even though it is marked disabled.
If the behavior of not checking IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is set is
intentional, it would be worthy of a comment describing the intended
behavior. disable_irq_nosync() does call chip->disable() to provide a
chipset specifiec interface for disabling the interrupt, which avoids this
issue when used.

pidns: Place under CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL
This is my trivial patch to swat innumerable little bugs with a single
blow.
After some intensive review (my apologies for not having gotten to this
sooner) what we have looks like a good base to build on with the current
pid namespace code but it is not complete, and it is still much to simple
to find issues where the kernel does the wrong thing outside of the initial
pid namespace.
Until the dust settles and we are certain we have the ABI and the
implementation is as correct as humanly possible let's keep process ID
namespaces behind CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL.
Allowing us the option of fixing any ABI or other bugs we find as long as
they are minor.
Allowing users of the kernel to avoid those bugs simply by ensuring their
kernel does not have support for multiple pid namespaces.

mark sys_open/sys_read exports unused
sys_open / sys_read were used in the early 1.2 days to load firmware from
disk inside drivers. Since 2.0 or so this was deprecated behavior, but
several drivers still were using this. Since a few years we have a
request_firmware() API that implements this in a nice, consistent way.
Only some old ISA sound drivers (pre-ALSA) still straggled along for some
time.... however with commit
c2b1239a9f22f19c53543b460b24507d0e21ea0c the
last user is now gone.
This is a good thing, since using sys_open / sys_read etc for firmware is a
very buggy to dangerous thing to do; these operations put an fd in the
process file descriptor table.... which then can be tampered with from
other threads for example. For those who don't want the firmware loader,
filp_open()/vfs_read are the better APIs to use, without this security
issue.

rd: fix data corruption on memory pressure
We have seen ramdisk based install systems, where some pages of mapped
libraries and programs were suddendly zeroed under memory pressure. This
should not happen, as the ramdisk avoids freeing its pages by keeping them
dirty all the time.
It turns out that there is a case, where the VM makes a ramdisk page clean,
without telling the ramdisk driver. On memory pressure shrink_zone runs
and it starts to run shrink_active_list. There is a check for
buffer_heads_over_limit, and if true, pagevec_strip is called.
pagevec_strip calls try_to_release_page. If the mapping has no releasepage
callback, try_to_free_buffers is called. try_to_free_buffers has now a
special logic for some file systems to make a dirty page clean, if all
buffers are clean. Thats what happened in our test case.
The simplest solution is to provide a noop-releasepage callback for the
ramdisk driver. This avoids try_to_free_buffers for ramdisk pages.

rtc: fall back to requesting only the ports we actually use
Firmware like PNPBIOS or ACPI can report the address space consumed by the
RTC. The actual space consumed may be less than the size (RTC_IO_EXTENT)
assumed by the RTC driver.
The PNP core doesn't request resources yet, but I'd like to make it do so.
If/when it does, the RTC_IO_EXTENT request may fail, which prevents the RTC
driver from loading.
Since we only use the RTC index and data registers at RTC_PORT(0) and
RTC_PORT(1), we can fall back to requesting just enough space for those.
If the PNP core requests resources, this results in typical I/O port usage
like this:
0070-0073 : 00:06 <-- PNP device 00:06 responds to 70-73
0070-0071 : rtc <-- RTC driver uses only 70-71

coding style changes to make the BFS driver conform to the requirements
specified for Linux kernel code. Finally, I made a few cosmetic changes
such as removal of trivial debug output.
Also, the patch removes the fields `si_lf_ioff' and `si_lf_sblk' of the
in-core superblock structure. These fields are initialized but never
actually used.
If you are wondering why I need BFS, here is the answer: I am using this
