I won't say 'fix', because they still look broken, although this will at
least allow 'make ARCH=CRIS headers_install' to _complete_.
For headers which are exported, we should probably choose between
asm/arch-v10 and asm/arch-v32 by something that GCC defines -- we can't
rely on a generated symlink. And we certainly can't export an arch/
directory which doesn't even exist.
And the only thing that we seem to include from the arch/ directory is
<asm/arch/ptrace.h> from <asm/ptrace.h> ... and that isn't exported in
either arch-v10 or arch-v32 _anyway_.

There was another FAT BKL conversion deadlock reported by Bart
Trojanowski due to the BKL being used as a recursive lock by FAT, which
was missed because it only triggers with 'sync' (or 'dirsync') mounts.
The recursion worked for the BKL, but after the conversion to lock_super
(which uses a mutex), it just deadlocks.
Thanks to Bart for debugging this and testing the fix. The lock

=======================
where the deadlock is due to the nesting of lock_super from vfat_unlink
to fat_write_inode:
- do_unlinkat
- vfs_unlink
- vfat_unlink
* lock_super
- fat_remove_entries
- fat_sync_inode
- fat_write_inode
* lock_super
and the fix is to simply remove the use of lock_super() in fat_write_inode.
The lock_super() there had been just an automatic conversion of the
kernel lock to the superblock lock, but no locking was actually needed
there, since the code in fat_write_inode already protected all relevant
accesses with a spinlock (sbi->inode_hash_lock to be exact). The only
code inside the BKL (and thus the superblock lock) was accesses tp local
variables or calls to functions that have long been SMP-safe (i.e.
sb_bread, mark_buffe_dirty and brlese).

Recent of_platform changes made of_bus_type_init() overwrite the bus
type's .dev_attrs list, meaning that the "name" attribute that ibmebus
devices previously had is no longer present. This is a user-visible
regression which breaks the userspace eHCA support, since the eHCA
userspace driver relies on the name attribute to check for valid
adapters.
This fixes it by providing the "name" attribute in the generic OF
device code instead. Tested on POWER.

sbp2 was too quick to report .update() to the ieee1394 core as failed.
(Logged as "Failed to reconnect to sbp2 device!".) The core would then
unbind sbp2 from the device.
This is not justified if the .update() failed because another bus reset
happened. We check this and tell the ieee1394 that .update() succeeded,
and the core will call sbp2's .update() for the new bus reset as well.
This improves reconnection/re-login especially on buses with several
disks as they may issue bus resets in close succession when they come
online.

If dev_deactivate() is trying to quiesce the queue, it
is theoretically possible for another cpu to livelock
trying to process that queue. This happens because
dev_deactivate() grabs the queue spinlock as it checks
the queue state, whereas net_tx_action() does a trylock
and reschedules the qdisc if it hits the lock.
This breaks the livelock by adding a check on
__QDISC_STATE_DEACTIVATED to net_tx_action() when
the trylock fails.

If we create a conntrack that has NAT handlings and a helper, the helper
is assigned twice. This happens because nf_nat_setup_info() - via
nf_conntrack_alter_reply() - sets the helper before ctnetlink, which
indeed does not check if the conntrack already has a helper as it thinks that
it is a brand new conntrack.
The fix moves the helper assignation before the set of the status flags.
This avoids a bogus assertion in __nf_ct_ext_add (if netfilter assertions are
enabled) which checks that the conntrack must not be confirmed.

Thanks is due to Wei Yongjun for the detailed analysis and description of this
bug at http://marc.info/?l=dccp&m=121739364909199&w=2
The problem is that invalid packets received by a client in state REQUEST cause
the retransmission timer for the DCCP-Request to be reset. This includes freeing
the Request-skb ( in dccp_rcv_request_sent_state_process() ). As a consequence,
* the arrival of further packets cause a double-free, triggering a panic(),
* the connection then may hang, since further retransmissions are blocked.
This patch changes the order of statements so that the retransmission timer is
reset, and the pending Request freed, only if a valid Response has arrived (or
the number of sysctl-retries has been exhausted).
Further changes:
----------------
To be on the safe side, replaced __kfree_skb with kfree_skb so that if due to
unexpected circumstances the sk_send_head is NULL the WARN_ON is used instead.

We always either:
1) Never made an external reference to this qdisc.
or
2) Did a dev_deactivate() which purged all asynchronous
references.
So do not lock the qdisc when we call qdisc_destroy(),
it's illegal anyways as when we drop the lock this is

Qdisc locks are initialized in the same function, qdisc_alloc(), so
lockdep can't distinguish tx qdisc lock from rx and reports "possible
recursive locking detected" when both these locks are taken eg. while
using act_mirred with ifb. This looks like a false positive. Anyway,
after this patch these locks will be reported more exactly.
