[PATCH] at91_rtc updates
Various bug fixes to the at91rm9200 RTC:
- alarm: setalarm() should pay attention to the "enabled" flag
- init: cleaner handling of the wakeup flags, which cpu init should
really have set up. Doing it here is just a workaround.
- linkage: since the at91_rtc driver probe() routine is in the init
section, it should use platform_driver_probe() instead of leaving
that pointer around in the driver struct after init section removal.
- linkage: likewise, remove() belongs in the exit section.
Among other things, the init and alarm changes ensure that this driver
handles the new sysfs "wakealarm" attribute properly.

[PATCH] rtc-sa1100 rtc_wklarm.enabled bugfixes
Some rtc-sa1100 bugfixes:
- The read_alarm() method reports the rtc_wkalrm.enabled field properly.
This patch is already in the handhelds.org tree.
- And the set_alarm() method now handles that flag correctly, rather than
making mismatched {en,dis}able_irq_wake() calls, which trigger runtime
warning messages. (Those calls are best made in suspend/resume methods.)
Note that while this SA1100/PXA RTC is fully capable of waking those ARM
processors from sleep states, that mechanism isn't properly supported on
either processor family, or in this driver. Some boards have board-specific
PM glue providing partial workarounds for the weak generic PM support.

It is possible that a user space application could remove and re-create a

[PATCH] autofs4: fix another race between mount and expire
Jeff Moyer has identified a race between mount and expire.
What happens is that during an expire the situation can arise that a directory
is removed and another lookup is done before the expire issues a completion
status to the kernel module. In this case, since the the lookup gets a new
dentry, it doesn't know that there is an expire in progress and when it posts
its mount request, matches the existing expire request and waits for its
completion. ENOENT is then returned to user space from lookup (as the dentry
passed in is now unhashed) without having performed the mount request.
The solution used here is to keep track of dentrys in this unhashed state and
reuse them, if possible, in order to preserve the flags. Additionally, this
infrastructure will provide the framework for the reintroduction of caching of
mount fails removed earlier in development.

[PATCH] shm: make sysv ipc shared memory use stacked files
The current ipc shared memory code runs into several problems because it
does not quite use files like the rest of the kernel. With the option of
backing ipc shared memory with either hugetlbfs or ordinary shared memory
the problems got worse. With the added support for ipc namespaces things
behaved so unexpected that we now have several bad namespace reference
counting bugs when using what appears at first glance to be a reasonable
idiom.
So to attack these problems and hopefully make the code more maintainable
this patch simply uses the files provided by other parts of the kernel and
builds it's own files out of them. The shm files are allocated in do_shmat
and freed when their reference count drops to zero with their last unmap.
The file and vm operations that we don't want to implement or we don't
implement completely we just delegate to the operations of our backing
file.
This means that we now get an accurate shm_nattch count for we have a
hugetlbfs inode for backing store, and the shm accounting of last attach
and last detach time work as well.
This means that getting a reference to the ipc namespace when we create the
file and dropping the referenece in the release method is now safe and
correct.
This means we no longer need a special case for clearing VM_MAYWRITE
as our file descriptor now only has write permissions when we have
requested write access when calling shmat. Although VM_SHARED is now
cleared as well which I believe is harmless and is mostly likely a
minor bug fix.
By using the same set of operations for both the hugetlb case and regular
shared memory case shmdt is not simplified and made slightly more correct
as now the test "vma->vm_ops == &shm_vm_ops" is 100% accurate in spotting
all shared memory regions generated from sysvipc shared memory.

[PATCH] rework reserved major handling
Several people have reported failures in dynamic major device number handling
due to the recent changes in there to avoid handing out the local/experimental
majors.
Rolf reports that this is due to a gcc-4.1.0 bug.
The patch refactors that code a lot in an attempt to provoke the compiler into
behaving.

[MIPS] Fixup copy_from_user_inatomic
From the
01408c4939479ec46c15aa7ef6e2406be50eeeca log message:
The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to
pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source
address is not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the*
*destination*.
This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd
thing to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or
what was there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a
reasonable thing to see).
If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption
re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't
cause an error.
The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing
so causes the problem. It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than
copy_from_user so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic
to *not* zero out bytes on failure.
< --- end cite --- >
This patch finally implements at least a not so pretty solution by
duplicating the relevant part of __copy_user.

[MIPS] Fix struct sigcontext for N32 userland
The kernel use 64-bit for sc_regs[0], and both N32/N64 userland
expects it was 64-bit. But size of 'long' on N32 is actually 32-bit.
So this definition make some confusion. Use __u32 and __u64 for
N32/N64 sigcontext to get rid of this confusion.
