eca6acf915 [CIFS] Fix multiuser mounts so server does not invalidate earlier security contexts
When two different users mount the same Windows 2003 Server share using CIFS,
the first session mounted can be invalidated.  Some servers invalidate the first
smb session when a second similar user (e.g. two users who get mapped by server to "guest")
authenticates an smb session from the same client.

By making sure that we set the 2nd and subsequent vc numbers to nonzero values,
this ensures that we will not have this problem.

Fixes Samba bug 6004, problem description follows:
How to reproduce:

- configure an "open share" (full permissions to Guest user) on Windows 2003
Server (I couldn't reproduce the problem with Samba server or Windows older
than 2003)
- mount the share twice with different users who will be authenticated as guest.

 noacl,noperm,user=john,dir_mode=0700,domain=DOMAIN,rw
 noacl,noperm,user=jeff,dir_mode=0700,domain=DOMAIN,rw

Result:

- just the mount point mounted last is accessible:

c3b2a0c640 [CIFS] improve posix semantics of file create
Samba server added support for a new posix open/create/mkdir operation
a year or so ago, and we added support to cifs for mkdir to use it,
but had not added the corresponding code to file create.

The following patch helps improve the performance of the cifs create
path (to Samba and servers which support the cifs posix protocol
extensions).  Using Connectathon basic test1, with 2000 files, the
performance improved about 15%, and also helped reduce network traffic
(17% fewer SMBs sent over the wire) due to saving a network round trip
for the SetPathInfo on every file create.

It should also help the semantics (and probably the performance) of
write (e.g. when posix byte range locks are on the file) on file
handles opened with posix create, and adds support for a few flags
which would have to be ignored otherwise.

69765529d7 [CIFS] Fix oops in cifs_strfromUCS_le mounting to servers which do not specify their OS
Fixes kernel bug #10451 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10451

Certain NAS appliances do not set the operating system or network operating system
fields in the session setup response on the wire.  cifs was oopsing on the unexpected
zero length response fields (when trying to null terminate a zero length field).

This fixes the oops.

3fff0179e3 virtio-pci: do not oops on config change if driver not loaded
The host really shouldn't be notifying us of config changes
before the device status is VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER or
VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK.

However, if we do happen to be interrupted while we're not
attached to a driver, we really shouldn't oops. Prevent
this simply by checking that device->driver is non-NULL
before trying to notify the driver of config changes.

Problem observed by doing a "set_link virtio.0 down" with
QEMU before the net driver had been loaded.

720eba31f4 modules: Use a better scheme for refcounting
Current refcounting for modules (done if CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y) is
using a lot of memory.

Each 'struct module' contains an [NR_CPUS] array of full cache lines.

This patch uses existing infrastructure (percpu_modalloc() &
percpu_modfree()) to allocate percpu space for the refcount storage.

Instead of wasting NR_CPUS*128 bytes (on i386), we now use
nr_cpu_ids*sizeof(local_t) bytes.

On a typical distro, where NR_CPUS=8, shiping 2000 modules, we reduce
size of module files by about 2 Mbytes. (1Kb per module)

Instead of having all refcounters in the same memory node - with TLB misses
because of vmalloc() - this new implementation permits to have better
NUMA properties, since each  CPU will use storage on its preferred node,
thanks to percpu storage.

b6018958a5 pxamci: enable DMA for write ops after CMD/RESP
With the PXA270 MMC hardware, there seems to be an issue of
data corruption on writes where a 4KB data block is offset
by one byte.

If we delay enabling the DMA for writes until after the CMD/RESP
has finished, the problem seems to be fixed.

a77dcc437c ide: add CS5536 host driver (v3)
This is a port of libata's pata_cs5536.c (written by Martin K. Petersen)
to IDE subsystem.

Changes done while at it:

* Reprogram PIO/MWDMA timings if needed before and after DMA transfer
  (chipset uses shared PIO/MWDMA timings).

* Fix cable detection to report 80-wires cable if BIOS set it for any
  device on a port (IDE core will do drive-side cable detection later).

* Don't disable UDMA while programming PIO timings.

* Simplify PCI/MSR support.

Pros of having IDE host driver in addition to libata's one:

* IDE is much lighter than SCSI+libata, the host driver itself is also
  a bit smaller:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   1261     496       4    1761     6e1 drivers/ata/pata_cs5536.o
   1242     128       4    1374     55e drivers/ide/cs5536.o

* This allows use of IDE features which are unavailable under libata.

v2:
* Fixes per review from Sergei:
  - simplify dependency check in Kconfig
  - use IDE_DRV_MASK also for ->drive_data
  - disable UDMA when programming MWDMA
  - program new DTC timings only when necessary
  - fix printk() level in cs5536_init_one()

* Fix patch description according to comments from Alan and Sergei.

v3:
* Smarter masking of UDMA bits per Sergei's suggestion.

7fbb7cadd0 fbdev/atyfb: Fix DSP config on some PowerMacs & PowerBooks
Since the complete re-write in 2.6.10, some PowerMacs (At least PowerMac 5500
and PowerMac G3 Beige rev A) with ATI Mach64 chip have suffered from unstable
columns in their framebuffer image. This seems to depend on a value (4) read
from PLL_EXT_CNTL register, which leads to incorrect DSP config parameters to
be written to the chip. This patch uses a value calculated by aty_init_pll_ct
instead, as a starting point.

There are questions as to whether this should be extended to other platforms
or maybe made dependent on specific chip types, but in the meantime, this has
been tested on various powermacs and works for them so let's commit it.

27421e211a Manually revert "mlock: downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions"
This essentially reverts commit 8edb08caf6.

It downgraded our mmap semaphore to a read-lock while mlocking pages, in
order to allow other threads (and external accesses like "ps" et al) to
walk the vma lists and take page faults etc.  Which is a nice idea, but
the implementation does not work.

Because we cannot upgrade the lock back to a write lock without
releasing the mmap semaphore, the code had to release the lock entirely
and then re-take it as a writelock.  However, that meant that the caller
possibly lost the vma chain that it was following, since now another
thread could come in and mmap/munmap the range.

The code tried to work around that by just looking up the vma again and
erroring out if that happened, but quite frankly, that was just a buggy
hack that doesn't actually protect against anything (the other thread
could just have replaced the vma with another one instead of totally
unmapping it).

The only way to downgrade to a read map _reliably_ is to do it at the
end, which is likely the right thing to do: do all the 'vma' operations
with the write-lock held, then downgrade to a read after completing them
all, and then do the "populate the newly mlocked regions" while holding
just the read lock.  And then just drop the read-lock and return to user
space.

The (perhaps somewhat simpler) alternative is to just make all the
callers of mlock_vma_pages_range() know that the mmap lock got dropped,
and just re-grab the mmap semaphore if it needs to mlock more than one
vma region.

So we can do this "downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions"
thing right, but the way it was done here was absolutely not correct.
Thus the revert, in the expectation that we will do it all correctly
some day.

67e70baf04 V4L/DVB (10411): s5h1409: Perform s5h1409 soft reset after tuning
Just like with the s5h1411, the s5h1409 needs a soft-reset in order for it
to know that the tuner has been told to change frequencies.  This change
changes the behavior from "random tuning times between 500ms to complete
tuning lock failures" to "tuning lock consistently within 700ms".

40c41c8cf1 V4L/DVB (10403): saa7134-alsa: saa7130 doesn't support digital audio
According with saa7130 public datasheet, saa7130 doesn't support
digital audio. This is also confirmed by experimental tests. So, it
doesn't make sense to let saa7134-alsa register for those chipsets.

a571bbeafb sched: fix buddie group latency
Similar to the previous patch, by not clearing buddies we can select entities
past their run quota, which can increase latency. This means we have to clear
group buddies as well.

Do not use the group clear for pick_next_task(), otherwise that'll get O(n^2).

a9f3e2b549 sched: clear buddies more aggressively
It was noticed that a task could get re-elected past its run quota due to buddy
affinities. This could increase latency a little. Cure it by more aggresively
clearing buddy state.

We do so in two situations:
 - when we force preempt
 - when we select a buddy to run

d942fb6c7d sched: fix sync wakeups
Pawel Dziekonski reported that the openssl benchmark and his
quantum chemistry application both show slowdowns due to the
scheduler under-parallelizing execution.

The reason are pipe wakeups still doing 'sync' wakeups which
overrides the normal buddy wakeup logic - even if waker and
wakee are loosely coupled.

Fix an inversion of logic in the buddy wakeup code.
