Appended patch will setup compatibility mode TASK_SIZE properly. This will
fix atleast three known bugs that can be encountered while running
compatibility mode apps.
a) A malicious 32bit app can have an elf section at 0xffffe000. During
exec of this app, we will have a memory leak as insert_vm_struct() is
not checking for return value in syscall32_setup_pages() and thus not
freeing the vma allocated for the vsyscall page. And instead of exec
failing (as it has addresses > TASK_SIZE), we were allowing it to
succeed previously.
b) With a 32bit app, hugetlb_get_unmapped_area/arch_get_unmapped_area
may return addresses beyond 32bits, ultimately causing corruption
because of wrap-around and resulting in SEGFAULT, instead of returning
ENOMEM.
c) 32bit app doing this below mmap will now fail.
mmap((void *)(0xFFFFE000UL), 0x10000UL, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_FIXED|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, 0, 0);

This patch fixes overrun of array pa:
92 struct idr_layer *pa[MAX_LEVEL];
in
98 l = idp->layers;
99 pa[l--] = NULL;
by passing idp->layers, set in
202 idp->layers = layers;
to function sub_alloc in
203 v = sub_alloc(idp, ptr, &id);

The implementation is optimal for UltraSPARC-III and later.
It will work, however suboptimally, on UltraSPARC-II and
be treated as a NOP on UltraSPARC-I.
It is not worth code patching this thing as the highest cost
is the code space, and code patching cannot eliminate that.

Here's a much smaller patch to simply disable devfs from the build. If
this goes well, and there are no complaints for a few weeks, I'll resend
my big "devfs-die-die-die" series of patches that rip the whole thing
out of the kernel tree.

Sit tunnel logging is currently broken:
MAC=01:23:45:67:89:ab->01:23:45:47:89:ac TUNNEL=123.123. 0.123-> 12.123. 6.123
Apart from the broken IP address, MAC addresses are printed differently
for sit tunnels than for everything else.

Here is a simplified version of the patch to fix a bug in IPv6
multicasting. It:
1) adds existence check & EADDRINUSE error for regular joins
2) adds an exception for EADDRINUSE in the source-specific multicast
join (where a prior join is ok)
3) adds a missing/needed read_lock on sock_mc_list; would've raced
with destroying the socket on interface down without
4) adds a "leave group" in the (INCLUDE, empty) source filter case.
This frees unneeded socket buffer memory, but also prevents
an inappropriate interaction among the 8 socket options that
mess with this. Some would fail as if in the group when you
aren't really.
Item #4 had a locking bug in the last version of this patch; rather than
removing the idev->lock read lock only, I've simplified it to remove
all lock state in the path and treat it as a direct "leave group" call for
the (INCLUDE,empty) case it covers. Tested on an MP machine. :-)
Much thanks to HoerdtMickael <hoerdt@clarinet.u-strasbg.fr> who

Essentially netlink at the moment always reports a pid and sequence of 0
always for v6 route activities.
To understand the repurcassions of this look at:
http://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2005-June/003507.html
While fixing this, i took the liberty to resolve the outstanding issue
of IPV6 routes inserted via ioctls to have the correct pids as well.
This patch tries to behave as close as possible to the v4 routes i.e
maintains whatever PID the socket issuing the command owns as opposed to
the process. That made the patch a little bulky.
I have tested against both netlink derived utility to add/del routes as
well as ioctl derived one. The Quagga folks have tested against quagga.
This fixes the problem and so far hasnt been detected to introduce any
new issues.

direct I/O locking changes it is just a wrapper around
VOP_FLUSHINVAL_PAGES, so it's not nessecary anymore. Keep a simplified
version for kernels < 2.4.22, as these don't have the changed direct I/O
locking.
