c02db8c629 rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetric
Now we have a set of nested attributes:

  IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED)
    IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED)
      IFLA_VF_MAC
      IFLA_VF_VLAN
      IFLA_VF_TX_RATE

This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired.
Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state.

The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like
something to consider for 2.6.34.

35790c0421 tcp: fix MD5 (RFC2385) support
TCP MD5 support uses percpu data for temporary storage. It currently
disables preemption so that same storage cannot be reclaimed by another
thread on same cpu.

We also have to make sure a softirq handler wont try to use also same
context. Various bug reports demonstrated corruptions.

Fix is to disable preemption and BH.

95e8f634d7 MIPS FPU emulator: allow Cause bits of FCSR to be writeable by ctc1
In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register
    are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction.  In odd corner cases,
    this can cause problems.  For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero
    exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to
    restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred.  In
    this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would
    cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately.  The solution
    is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of
    the FCSR register to be writeable.  This is the behaviour of the hardware
    that the code is emulating.
    
    This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes
    to Kevin Kissell.  In Kevin's words:
    
    I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op:  case of the emulator.  The
    Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the
    CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction.  I think that
    actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would
    work a good deal better.  At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of
    the architecturally defined FPU.  If I wanted to be really, really pedantic
    (which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't
    necessarily writable.

d83c49f3e3 Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commit
1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention;
we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously
shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on.  To fix it
right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting
upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and
i_mutex on the inode in question.  Set it (with dont_mount(dentry))
in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places
in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD.  Setting S_DEAD
is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories
getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race
prevention.

2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash
the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint.  Fixed.

3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the
right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong)
one.  Noticed and fixed.

e9b1d5d0ff x86, mrst: Don't blindly access extended config space
Do not blindly access extended configuration space unless we actively
know we're on a Moorestown platform.  The fixed-size BAR capability
lives in the extended configuration space, and thus is not applicable
if the configuration space isn't appropriately sized.

This fixes booting certain VMware configurations with CONFIG_MRST=y.

Moorestown will add a fake PCI-X 266 capability to advertise the
presence of extended configuration space.

The L3 cache index disable feature of AMD CPUs has to be disabled if the
kernel is running as guest on top of a hypervisor because northbridge
devices are not available to the guest. Currently, this fixes a boot
crash on top of Xen. In the future this will become an issue on KVM as
well.

Check if northbridge devices are present and do not enable the feature
if there are none.

e08733446e inotify: race use after free/double free in inotify inode marks
There is a race in the inotify add/rm watch code.  A task can find and
remove a mark which doesn't have all of it's references.  This can
result in a use after free/double free situation.

Task A					Task B
------------				-----------
inotify_new_watch()
 allocate a mark (refcnt == 1)
 add it to the idr
					inotify_rm_watch()
					 inotify_remove_from_idr()
					  fsnotify_put_mark()
					      refcnt hits 0, free
 take reference because we are on idr
 [at this point it is a use after free]
 [time goes on]
 refcnt may hit 0 again, double free

The fix is to take the reference BEFORE the object can be found in the
idr.

3dbc6fb6a3 inotify: clean up the inotify_add_watch out path
inotify_add_watch explictly frees the unused inode mark, but it can just
use the generic code.  Just do that.

4ae69e6b71 mmap_min_addr check CAP_SYS_RAWIO only for write
Redirecting directly to lsm, here's the patch discussed on lkml:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/22/219

The mmap_min_addr value is useful information for an admin to see without
being root ("is my system vulnerable to kernel NULL pointer attacks?") and
its setting is trivially easy for an attacker to determine by calling
mmap() in PAGE_SIZE increments starting at 0, so trying to keep it private
has no value.

Only require CAP_SYS_RAWIO if changing the value, not reading it.

  paper, pasted on my window - if you're going to get my password, you're

1c5250d616 serial: imx.c: fix CTS trigger level lower to avoid lost chars
The imx CTS trigger level is left at its reset value that is 32
chars. Since the RX FIFO has 32 entries, when CTS is raised, the
FIFO already is full. However, some serial port devices first empty
their TX FIFO before stopping when CTS is raised, resulting in lost
chars.

This patch sets the trigger level lower so that other chars arrive
after CTS is raised, there is still room for 16 of them.

77945febbe tty: Fix unbalanced BKL handling in error path
Arnd noted:

After the "retry_open:" label, we first get the tty_mutex
and then the BKL. However a the end of tty_open, we jump
back to retry_open with the BKL still held. If we run into
this case, the tty_open function will be left with the BKL
still held.

002baeecf5 vfs: Fix O_NOFOLLOW behavior for paths with trailing slashes
According to specification

	mkdir d; ln -s d a; open("a/", O_NOFOLLOW | O_RDONLY)

should return success but currently it returns ELOOP.  This is a
regression caused by path lookup cleanup patch series.

Fix the code to ignore O_NOFOLLOW in case the provided path has trailing
slashes.
