request.  If the user process receives a signal, v9fs_mux_rpc sets the

oops while processing it.

The patch makes sure that requests that are being flushed are moved to the
pending requests queue safely.

If a request is being flushed, don't remove it from the list of pending
requests even if it receives a reply before the flush is acknoledged.  The

[PATCH] OProfile: fixed x86_64 incorrect kernel call graphs

Fix the problem in kernel 2.6.15.1 (and early versions) that OProfile on
x86_64 does not correctly collect the stack traces for kernel functions.

The original code in valid_kernel_stack() in arch/i386/oprofile/backtrace.c
assumes that the frame pointer (headaddr) should be greater than stack
(i.e., regs).

This assumption is wrong for x86_64 because NMIs in x86_64 use a seperate
stack different from the kernel stack.  Therefore, the variable stack now
points to some location on the NMI stack, which turns out to be at a higher
address than the frame pointer (headaddr) on the kernel stack.  The correct
comparison here should be between headaddr and regs->rsp for x86_64.

[PATCH] Tell kallsyms_lookup_name() to ignore type U entries

When one module exports a function symbol and another module uses that
symbol then kallsyms shows the symbol twice.  Once from the consumer with a
type of 'U' and once from the provider with a type of 't' or 'T'.  On most
architectures, both entries have the same address so it does not matter
which one is returned by kallsyms_lookup_name().  But on architectures with
function descriptors, the 'U' entry points to the descriptor, not to the
code body, which is not what we want.

IA64 # grep -w qla2x00_remove_one /proc/kallsyms
a000000208c25ef8 U qla2x00_remove_one   [qla2300]   <= descriptor
a000000208bf44c0 t qla2x00_remove_one   [qla2xxx]   <= function body

Tell kallsyms_lookup_name() to ignore type U entries in modules.
