f8a4c3b525 tty: fix tty network driver interactions with TCGET/TCSET calls (x86 fix)
And to go with it Dave's type checking x86 termios headers.  I've updated
these as the original sent by Dave had some wrong types in it.

allowing more than one '*' before the function name.

aa81a7c712 VFS: factor out three helpers for FIBMAP/FIONBIO/FIOASYNC file ioctls
Factor out file-specific ioctl code into smaller helper functions, away from
file_ioctl().  This helps code readability and also reduces indentation inside

deb21db778 VFS: swap do_ioctl and vfs_ioctl names
Rename old vfs_ioctl to do_ioctl, because the comment above it clearly
indicates that it is an internal function not to be exported to modules;
therefore it should have a more traditional do_XXX name.  The new do_ioctl
is exported in fs.h but not to modules.

Rename the old do_ioctl to vfs_ioctl because the names vfs_XXX should
preferably be reserved to callable VFS functions which modules may call, as
many other vfs_XXX functions already do.  Export the new vfs_ioctl to GPL
modules so others can use it (including Unionfs and eCryptfs).  Add DocBook
for new vfs_ioctl.

4aa323bd83 DS1WM: decouple host IRQ and INTR active state settings
The DS1WM driver incorrectly infers the IAS bit (1-wire interrupt active
high) from IRQ settings.  There are devices that have IAS=0 but still need
the IRQ to trigger on a rising edge.  With this patch, machines with DS1WM
that need IAS=1 have to set .active_high=1 in the ds1wm_platform_data.

4cbc76eadf power_supply: remove capacity_level from list of sysfs attributes
This commit:

commit 8efe444038
Author: Andres Salomon <dilinger@queued.net>
Date:   Wed Dec 12 14:12:56 2007 -0500

    power: remove POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CAPACITY_LEVEL

Removed CAPACITY_LEVEL from every other code, leaving the array with sysfs
attributes with one more entry than the number of enums in power_supply.h.
This leads to some attributes containing the value of the attribute right
after it.  For example, temp_ambient would have the value of
time_to_empty_now.  In my case, I had time_to_full_avg have the value which
should be in model_name, when the former was usually empty.

This merges the mux.c (including the connection interface) with trans_fd
in preparation for transport API changes.  Ultimately, trans_fd will need
to be rewritten to clean it up and simplify the implementation, but this
reorganization is viewed as the first step.

dea7bbb603 9p: Convert semaphore to spinlock for p9_idpool
When booting from v9fs, down_interruptible in p9_idpool_get() triggered a BUG
as it was being called with IRQs disabled.  A spinlock seems like the right
thing to be using since the idr functions go out of their way not to sleep.

This patch eliminates the BUG by converting the semaphore to a spinlock.

20651af9ac x86: fix mttr trimming
Pavel Emelyanov reported that his networking card did not work
and bisected it down to:

"
The commit

  093af8d7f0
  x86_32: trim memory by updating e820

broke my e1000 card: on loading driver says that

  e1000: probe of 0000:04:03.0 failed with error -5

and the interface doesn't appear.
"

on a 32-bit kernel, base will overflow when try to do PAGE_SHIFT,
and highest_addr will always less 4G.

So use pfn instead of address to avoid the overflow when more than
4g RAM is installed on a 32-bit kernel.

Many thanks to Pavel Emelyanov for reporting and testing it.

a57dae3aa4 x86: fix iret exception recovery on 64-bit
This change broke recovery of exceptions in iret:

   commit 72fe485854
   Author: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com>

       x86: replace privileged instructions with paravirt macros

The ENTRY(native_iret) macro adds alignment padding before the iretq
instruction, so "iret_label" no longer points exactly at the instruction.
It was sloppy to leave the old "iret_label" label behind when replacing
its nearby use.  Removing it would have revealed the other use of the
label later in the file, and upon noticing that use, anyone exercising
the minimum of attention to detail expected of anyone touching this
subtle code would realize it needed to change as well.

32a932332c brk randomization: introduce CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK
based on similar patch from: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>

Introduce CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK. If disabled then the kernel is free
(but not obliged to) randomize the brk area.

Heap randomization breaks ancient binaries, so we keep COMPAT_BRK
enabled by default.

4cc6028d40 brk: check the lower bound properly
There is a check in sys_brk(), that tries to make sure that we do not
underflow the area that is dedicated to brk heap.

The check is however wrong, as it assumes that brk area starts immediately
after the end of the code (+bss), which is wrong for example in
environments with randomized brk start. The proper way is to check whether
the address is not below the start_brk address.

d8b57bb700 x86: make spurious fault handler aware of large mappings
In very rare cases, on certain CPUs, we could end up in the spurious
fault handler and ignore a large pud/pmd mapping. The resulting pte
pointer points into the mapped physical space and dereferencing it
will fault recursively.

Make the code aware of large mappings and do the permission check
on the pmd/pud entry, when a large pud/pmd mapping is detected.

3aa4b37d3e x86: make traps on entry code be debuggable in user space, 64-bit
Unify the x86-64 behavior for 32-bit processes that set
bogus %cs/%ss values (the only ones that can fault in iret)
match what the native i386 behavior is. (do not kill the task
via do_exit but generate a SIGSEGV signal)
