8b09fb3451 [PATCH] fix x86 topology export in sysfs for subarchitectures
The correct way to export hyperthreading based functions is to predicate
them on CONFIG_X86_HT.  Without this, the topology exporting patch breaks
the build on all non-PC x86 subarchitectures.

5ac5f9d1ce [PATCH] NLM: Fix the NLM_GRANTED callback checks
If 2 threads attached to the same process are blocking on different locks on
different files (maybe even on different servers) but have the same lock
arguments (i.e.  same offset+length - actually quite common, since most
processes try to lock the entire file) then the first GRANTED call that wakes
one up will also wake the other.

Currently when the NLM_GRANTED callback comes in, lockd walks the list of
blocked locks in search of a match to the lock that the NLM server has
granted.  Although it checks the lock pid, start and end, it fails to check
the filehandle and the server address.

By checking the filehandle and server IP address, we ensure that this only
happens if the locks truly are referencing the same file.

7c8903f637 [PATCH] jbd: revert checkpoint list changes
This patch reverts commit f93ea411b7:
  [PATCH] jbd: split checkpoint lists

This broke journal_flush() for OCFS2, which is its method of being sure
that metadata is sent to disk for another node.

And two related commits 8d3c7fce2d and
43c3e6f5ab with the subjects:
  [PATCH] jbd: log_do_checkpoint fix
  [PATCH] jbd: remove_transaction fix

These seem to be incremental bugfixes on the original patch and as such are
no longer needed.

be5efffb76 [PATCH] HPET: handle multiple ACPI EXTENDED_IRQ resources
When the _CRS for a single HPET contains multiple EXTENDED_IRQ resources,
we overwrote hdp->hd_nirqs every time we found one.

So the driver worked when all the IRQs were described in a single
EXTENDED_IRQ resource, but failed when multiple resources were used.
(Strictly speaking, I think the latter is actually more correct, but both
styles have been used.)

Someday we should remove all the ACPI stuff from hpet.c and use PNP driver
registration instead.  But currently PNP_MAX_IRQ is 2, and HPETs often have
more IRQs.  Hint, hint, Adam :-)

da965822ab [PATCH] tty reference count fix
Fix hole where tty structure can be released when reference count is non
zero.  Existing code can sleep without tty_sem protection between deciding
to release the tty structure (setting local variables tty_closing and
otty_closing) and setting TTY_CLOSING to prevent further opens.  An open
can occur during this interval causing release_dev() to free the tty
structure while it is still referenced.

This should fix bugzilla.kernel.org [Bug 6041] New: Unable to handle kernel
paging request

In Bug 6041, tty_open() oopes on accessing the tty structure it has
successfully claimed.  Bug was on SMP machine with the same tty being
opened and closed by multiple processes, and DEBUG_PAGEALLOC enabled.

16bf134840 [PATCH] compound page: no access_process_vm check
The PageCompound check before access_process_vm's set_page_dirty_lock is no
longer necessary, so remove it.  But leave the PageCompound checks in
bio_set_pages_dirty, dio_bio_complete and nfs_free_user_pages: at least some
of those were introduced as a little optimization on hugetlb pages.

d98c7a0984 [PATCH] compound page: default destructor
Somehow I imagined that calling a NULL destructor would free a compound page
rather than oopsing.  No, we must supply a default destructor, __free_pages_ok
using the order noted by prep_compound_page.  hugetlb can still replace this
as before with its own free_huge_page pointer.

The case that needs this is not common: rarely does put_compound_page's
put_page_testzero bring the count down to 0.  But if get_user_pages is applied
to some part of a compound page, without immediate release (e.g.  AIO or
Infiniband), then it's possible for its put_page to come after the containing
vma has been unmapped and the driver done its free_pages.

That's just the kind of case compound pages are supposed to be guarding
against (but Nick points out, nor did PageReserved handle this right).

41d78ba550 [PATCH] compound page: use page[1].lru
If a compound page has its own put_page_testzero destructor (the only current
example is free_huge_page), that is noted in page[1].mapping of the compound
page.  But that's rather a poor place to keep it: functions which call
set_page_dirty_lock after get_user_pages (e.g.  Infiniband's
__ib_umem_release) ought to be checking first, otherwise set_page_dirty is
liable to crash on what's not the address of a struct address_space.

And now I'm about to make that worse: it turns out that every compound page
needs a destructor, so we can no longer rely on hugetlb pages going their own
special way, to avoid further problems of page->mapping reuse.  For example,
not many people know that: on 50% of i386 -Os builds, the first tail page of a
compound page purports to be PageAnon (when its destructor has an odd
address), which surprises page_add_file_rmap.

Keep the compound page destructor in page[1].lru.next instead.  And to free up
the common pairing of mapping and index, also move compound page order from
index to lru.prev.  Slab reuses page->lru too: but if we ever need slab to use
compound pages, it can easily stack its use above this.

(akpm: decoded version of the above: the tail pages of a compound page now
have ->mapping==NULL, so there's no need for the set_page_dirty[_lock]()
caller to check that they're not compund pages before doing the dirty).

3218357c94 [MIPS] More uaccess.h fixes with gcc >= 4.0.1.
From Richard Sandiford <richard@codesourcery.com>:
    
This patch caused a miscompilation of the restore_gp_regs() block
in restore_sigcontext().  This was in a 32-bit kernel compiled with
GCC CVS head.
    
restore_gp_regs() copies 64-bit user fields into 32-bit variables,
and in this combination, the new __get_user_asm_ll32() clobbers too
many registers.  It says:
    
/*
 * Get a long long 64 using 32 bit registers.
 */
{									\
	__asm__ __volatile__(						\
	"1:	lw	%1, (%3)				\n"	\
	"2:	lw	%D1, 4(%3)				\n"	\
	"	move	%0, $0					\n"	\
	"3:	.section	.fixup,\"ax\"			\n"	\
	"4:	li	%0, %4					\n"	\
	"	move	%1, $0					\n"	\
	"	move	%D1, $0					\n"	\
	"	j	3b					\n"	\
	"	.previous					\n"	\
	"	.section	__ex_table,\"a\"		\n"	\
	"	" __UA_ADDR "	1b, 4b				\n"	\
	"	" __UA_ADDR "	2b, 4b				\n"	\
	"	.previous					\n"	\
	: "=r" (__gu_err), "=&r" (val)					\
	: "0" (0), "r" (addr), "i" (-EFAULT));				\
}

and this requires val (%1) to be a 64-bit value.  In the case I saw,
gcc was using $3 for the 32-bit val, and wasn't expecting $4 to be
clobbered.

b4d9eda028 [NET]: Revert skb_copy_datagram_iovec() recursion elimination.
Revert the following changeset:

bc8dfcb939

Recursive SKB frag lists are really possible and disallowing
them breaks things.

00de651d14 [IPSEC]: Fix strange IPsec freeze.
Problem discovered and initial patch by Olaf Kirch:

	there's a problem with IPsec that has been bugging some of our users
	for the last couple of kernel revs. Every now and then, IPsec will
	freeze the machine completely. This is with openswan user land,
	and with kernels up to and including 2.6.16-rc2.

	I managed to debug this a little, and what happens is that we end
	up looping in xfrm_lookup, and never get out. With a bit of debug
	printks added, I can this happening:

		ip_route_output_flow calls xfrm_lookup

		xfrm_find_bundle returns NULL (apparently we're in the
			middle of negotiating a new SA or something)

		We therefore call xfrm_tmpl_resolve. This returns EAGAIN
			We go to sleep, waiting for a policy update.
			Then we loop back to the top

		Apparently, the dst_orig that was passed into xfrm_lookup
			has been dropped from the routing table (obsolete=2)
			This leads to the endless loop, because we now create
			a new bundle, check the new bundle and find it's stale
			(stale_bundle -> xfrm_bundle_ok -> dst_check() return 0)

	People have been testing with the patch below, which seems to fix the
	problem partially. They still see connection hangs however (things
	only clear up when they start a new ping or new ssh). So the patch
	is obvsiouly not sufficient, and something else seems to go wrong.

	I'm grateful for any hints you may have...

I suggest that we simply bail out always.  If the dst decides to die
on us later on, the packet will be dropped anyway.  So there is no
great urgency to retry here.  Once we have the proper resolution
queueing, we can then do the retry again.
