561ec64ae6 VFS: don't do protected {sym,hard}links by default
In commit 800179c9b8 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.

However, it does turn out to break some applications.  It's rare, and
it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
we'll have to default to legacy behavior.

In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see

  http://www.dwd.de/AFD/

along with some legacy scripts.

Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
setting. Do:

	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks

to re-enable the link protections.

Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
options automatically.

These devices provide QMI and ethernet functionality via a standard CDC
ethernet descriptor.  But when driven by cdc_ether, the QMI
functionality is unavailable because only cdc_ether can claim the USB
interface.  Thus blacklist the devices in cdc_ether and add their IDs to
qmi_wwan, which enables both QMI and ethernet simultaneously.

39707c2a3b net: usb: Fix memory leak on Tx data path
Driver anchors the tx urbs and defers the urb submission if
a transmit request comes when the interface is suspended.
Anchoring urb increments the urb reference count. These
deferred urbs are later accessed by calling usb_get_from_anchor()
for submission during interface resume. usb_get_from_anchor()
unanchors the urb but urb reference count remains same.
This causes the urb reference count to remain non-zero
after usb_free_urb() gets called and urb never gets freed.
Hence call usb_put_urb() after anchoring the urb to properly
balance the reference count for these deferred urbs. Also,
unanchor these deferred urbs during disconnect, to free them
up.

c6fdd8e5d0 bas_gigaset: fix pre_reset handling
The delayed work function int_in_work() may call usb_reset_device()
and thus, indirectly, the driver's pre_reset method. Trying to
cancel the work synchronously in that situation would deadlock.
Fix by avoiding cancel_work_sync() in the pre_reset method.

If the reset was NOT initiated by int_in_work() this might cause
int_in_work() to run after the post_reset method, with urb_int_in
already resubmitted, so handle that case gracefully.

8bc5e4ea3e ktest: Fix ktest confusion with CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
In order to decide if ktest should bother installing modules on the
target box, it checks if the config file has CONFIG_MODULES=y. But it
also checks if the '=y' part exists. It only will install modules if the
config exists and is set with '=y'. But as the regex that was used
tests:

  /^CONFIG_MODULES(=y)?/

this will also match:

  CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA

as the '=y' part was optional and it did not test the rest of the line.
When this happens, ktest will stop checking the rest of the configs but
it will also think that no modules are needed to be installed. What it
should do is only jump out of the loop if it actually found a
CONFIG_MODULES that is set to true.

Otherwise, ktest wont install the necessary modules needed for proper
booting of the test target.

aea2bf6a57 Input: wacom - handle split-sensor devices with internal hubs
Like our other pen-and-touch products, the Cintiq 24HD touch needs data
to be shared between its two sensors to facilitate proximity-based palm
rejection.

Unlike other tablets that report sensor data through separate interfaces
of the same USB device, the Cintiq 24HD touch has separate USB devices
that are connected to an internal USB hub.

This patch makes it possible to designate the USB VID/PID of the other
device so that the two may share data.  To ensure we don't accidentally
link to a sensor from a physically separate device (if several have been
plugged in), we limit the search to siblings (i.e., devices directly
connected to the same hub).

2008713c71 Makefile: Documentation for external tool should be correct
If one includes documentation for an external tool, it should be
correct.  This is not:

1. Overriding the input to rngd should typically be neither
   necessary nor desired.  This is especially so since newer
   versions of rngd support a number of different *types* of sources.
2. The default kernel-exported device is called /dev/hwrng not
   /dev/hwrandom nor /dev/hw_random (both of which were used in the
   past; however, kernel and udev seem to have converged on
   /dev/hwrng.)

Overall it is better if the documentation for rngd is kept with rngd
rather than in a kernel Makefile.

6ebe7da25b xtensa: reset windowbase/windowstart when cloning the VM
When we copy a user thread with CLONE_VM, we also have to reset
windowbase and windowstart to start a pristine stack frame. Otherwise,
overflows can happen using the address 0 as the stack pointer.
Also add a special case for vfork, which continues on the
parent stack until it calls execve. Because this could be a call8, we
need to spill the stack pointer of the previus frame (if still 'live' in
the register file).

Fix possible overflow of the buffer used for expanding environment

In the extremely unlikely case of an attacker having control over the
environment variables visible to gen_init_cpio, control over the
contents of the file gen_init_cpio parses, and gen_init_cpio was built
without compiler hardening, the attacker can gain arbitrary execution
control via a stack buffer overflow.

  $ cat usr/crash.list
  file foo ${BIG}${BIG}${BIG}${BIG}${BIG}${BIG} 0755 0 0
  $ BIG=$(perl -e 'print "A" x 4096;') ./usr/gen_init_cpio usr/crash.list

f230250577 pidns: limit the nesting depth of pid namespaces
'struct pid' is a "variable sized struct" - a header with an array of
upids at the end.

The size of the array depends on a level (depth) of pid namespaces.  Now a
level of pidns is not limited, so 'struct pid' can be more than one page.

Looks reasonable, that it should be less than a page.  MAX_PIS_NS_LEVEL is
not calculated from PAGE_SIZE, because in this case it depends on
architectures, config options and it will be reduced, if someone adds a
new fields in struct pid or struct upid.

I suggest to set MAX_PIS_NS_LEVEL = 32, because it saves ability to expand
"struct pid" and it's more than enough for all known for me use-cases.
When someone finds a reasonable use case, we can add a config option or a
sysctl parameter.

In addition it will reduce the effect of another problem, when we have
many nested namespaces and the oldest one starts dying.
zap_pid_ns_processe will be called for each namespace and find_vpid will
be called for each process in a namespace.  find_vpid will be called
minimum max_level^2 / 2 times.  The reason of that is that when we found a
bit in pidmap, we can't determine this pidns is top for this process or it
isn't.

vpid is a heavy operation, so a fork bomb, which create many nested
namespace, can make a system inaccessible for a long time.  For example my
system becomes inaccessible for a few minutes with 4000 processes.

d5ea7b5ec1 drivers/dma/dw_dmac: make driver's endianness configurable
The dw_dmac driver was originally developed for avr32 to be used with the
Synopsys DesignWare AHB DMA controller.  Starting from 2.6.38, access to
the device's i/o memory was done with the little-endian readl/writel
functions(1)

This broke the driver for the avr32 platform, because it needs big
(native) endian accessors.  This patch makes the endianness configurable
using 'DW_DMAC_BIG_ENDIAN_IO', which will default be true for AVR32

I submitted this patch before(2) but then waited for Andy to finish other
changes to the same module(3).

fc314d0a4a tools/testing/selftests/epoll/test_epoll.c: fix build
Latest Linus head run of "make selftests" in the tools directory failed
with references to undefined variables.  Reference was to
'write_thread_data' which is the name of a struct that is being used, not
the variable itself.  Change reference so it points to the variable.
