5e35eff13f drm/radeon: use DSTCACHE_CTLSTAT rather than RB2D_DSTCACHE_CTLSTAT
According to the hw guys, you should use DSTCACHE_CTLSTAT to flush

c6112bd86b sata_mv: warn on PIO with multiple DRQs
Chip errata sometimes prevents reliable use of PIO commands which involve
more than a single DRQ (data request).  In normal operation, libata should
not generate such PIO commands (uses DMA instead), but they could be sent
in via SG_IO from userspace.

A full workaround might be to break up such commands into sequences
of single DRQ ones, but that's just way too complex for something
that doesn't normally happen in real life.

So, allow the attempt (it often works, despite the errata),
but log the event for reference when somebody screams.

da503fa60b agp: two-stage page destruction issue
besides it apparently being useful only in 2.6.24 (the changes in 2.6.25
really mean that it could be converted back to a single-stage mechanism),
I'm seeing an issue in Xen Dom0 kernels, which is caused by the calling
of gart_to_virt() in the second stage invocations of the destroy function.
I think that besides this being a real issue with Xen (where
unmap_page_from_agp() is not just a page table attribute change), this
also is invalid from a theoretical perspective: One should not assume that
gart_to_virt() is still valid after unmapping a page. So minimally (keeping
the 2-stage mechanism) a patch like the one below would be needed.

ae1e535579 firewire: deadline for PHY config transmission
If the low-level driver failed to initialize a card properly without
noticing it, fw-core was blocked indefinitely when trying to send a
PHY config packet.  This hung up the events kernel thread, e.g. locked
up keyboard input.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=444694
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446763

This problem was introduced between 2.6.25 and 2.6.26-rc1 by commit
2a0a259049 "firewire: wait until PHY
configuration packet was transmitted (fix bus reset loop)".

The solution is to wait with timeout.  I tested it with 7 different
working controllers and 1 non-working controller.  On the working ones,
the packet callback complete()s usually --- but not always --- before a
timeout of 10ms.  Hence I chose a safer timeout of 100ms.

On the few tests with the non-working controller ALi M5271, PHY config
packet transmission always timed out so far.  (Fw-ohci needs to be fixed
for this controller independently of this deadline fix.  Often the core
doesn't even attempt to send a phy config because not even self ID
reception works.)

5cb84067d6 firewire: fill_bus_reset_event needs lock protection
Callers of fill_bus_reset_event() have to take card->lock.  Otherwise
access to node data may oops if node removal is in progress.

A lockless alternative would be

-	event->local_node_id = card->local_node->node_id;
+	tmp = fw_node_get(card->local_node);
+	event->local_node_id = tmp->node_id;
+	fw_node_put(tmp);

and ditto with the other node pointers which fill_bus_reset_event()
accesses.  But I went the locked route because one of the two callers
already holds the lock.  As a bonus, we don't need the memory barrier
anymore because device->generation and device->node_id are written in
a card->lock protected section.

65ba6cdc83 [POWERPC] Clear sub-page HPTE present bits when demoting page size
When we demote a slice from 64k to 4k, and we are about to insert an
HPTE for a 4k subpage and we notice that there is an existing 64k
HPTE, we first invalidate that HPTE before inserting the new 4k
subpage HPTE.  Since the bits that encode which hash bucket the old
HPTE was in overlap with the bits that encode which of the 16 subpages
have HPTEs, we need to clear out the subpage HPTE-present bits before
starting to insert HPTEs for the 4k subpages.  If we don't do that, we
can erroneously think that a subpage already has an HPTE when it
doesn't.

That in itself wouldn't be such a problem except that when we go to
update the HPTE that we think is present on machines with a
hypervisor, the hypervisor can tell us that the HPTE we think is there
is actually there even though it isn't, which can lead to a process
getting stuck in a loop, continually faulting.  The reason for the
confusion is that the AVPN (abbreviated virtual page number) we are
looking for in the HPTE for a 4k subpage can actually match the AVPN
in a stale HPTE for another 64k page.  For example, the HPTE for
the 4k subpage at 0x84000f000 will be in the same hash bucket and have
the same AVPN as the HPTE for the 64k page at 0x8400f0000.

This fixes the code to clear out the subpage HPTE-present bits.

6d1a3fb567 netlink: genl: fix circular locking
genetlink has a circular locking dependency when dumping the registered
families:

- dump start:
genl_rcv()            : take genl_mutex
genl_rcv_msg()        : call netlink_dump_start() while holding genl_mutex
netlink_dump_start(),
netlink_dump()        : take nlk->cb_mutex
ctrl_dumpfamily()     : try to detect this case and not take genl_mutex a
                        second time

- dump continuance:
netlink_rcv()         : call netlink_dump
netlink_dump          : take nlk->cb_mutex
ctrl_dumpfamily()     : take genl_mutex

Register genl_lock as callback mutex with netlink to fix this. This slightly
widens an already existing module unload race, the genl ops used during the
dump might go away when the module is unloaded. Thomas Graf is working on a
seperate fix for this.

3a5be7d4b0 Revert "mac80211: Use skb_header_cloned() on TX path."
This reverts commit 608961a5ec.

The problem is that the mac80211 stack not only needs to be able to
muck with the link-level headers, it also might need to mangle all of
the packet data if doing sw wireless encryption.

This fixes kernel bugzilla #10903.  Thanks to Didier Raboud (for the
bugzilla report), Andrew Prince (for bisecting), Johannes Berg (for
bringing this bisection analysis to my attention), and Ilpo (for
trying to analyze this purely from the TCP side).

In 2.6.27 we can take another stab at this, by using something like
skb_cow_data() when the TX path of mac80211 ends up with a non-NULL
tx->key.  The ESP protocol code in the IPSEC stack can be used as a
model for implementation.

3c73419c09 af_unix: fix 'poll for write'/ connected DGRAM sockets
The unix_dgram_sendmsg routine implements a (somewhat crude)
form of receiver-imposed flow control by comparing the length of the
receive queue of the 'peer socket' with the max_ack_backlog value
stored in the corresponding sock structure, either blocking
the thread which caused the send-routine to be called or returning
EAGAIN. This routine is used by both SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET
sockets. The poll-implementation for these socket types is
datagram_poll from core/datagram.c. A socket is deemed to be writeable
by this routine when the memory presently consumed by datagrams
owned by it is less than the configured socket send buffer size. This
is always wrong for connected PF_UNIX non-stream sockets when the
abovementioned receive queue is currently considered to be full.
'poll' will then return, indicating that the socket is writeable, but
a subsequent write result in EAGAIN, effectively causing an
(usual) application to 'poll for writeability by repeated send request
with O_NONBLOCK set' until it has consumed its time quantum.

The change below uses a suitably modified variant of the datagram_poll
routines for both type of PF_UNIX sockets, which tests if the
recv-queue of the peer a socket is connected to is presently
considered to be 'full' as part of the 'is this socket
writeable'-checking code. The socket being polled is additionally
put onto the peer_wait wait queue associated with its peer, because the
unix_dgram_sendmsg routine does a wake up on this queue after a
datagram was received and the 'other wakeup call' is done implicitly
as part of skb destruction, meaning, a process blocked in poll
because of a full peer receive queue could otherwise sleep forever
if no datagram owned by its socket was already sitting on this queue.
Among this change is a small (inline) helper routine named
'unix_recvq_full', which consolidates the actual testing code (in three
different places) into a single location.
