a99e4e413e [PATCH] pi-futex: fix mm_struct memory leak
lock_queue was getting called essentially twice in a row and was
continually incrementing the mm_count ref count, thus causing a memory
leak.

Dinakar Guniguntala provided a proper fix for the problem that simply grabs
the spinlock for the hash bucket queue rather than calling lock_queue.

The second time we do a queue_lock in futex_lock_pi, we really only need to
take the hash bucket lock.

5adc8a6adc [PATCH] add rule filterkey
Add support for a rule key, which can be used to tie audit records to audit
rules.  This is useful when a watched file is accessed through a link or
symlink, as well as for general audit log analysis.

Because this patch uses a string key instead of an integer key, there is a bit
of extra overhead to do the kstrdup() when a rule fires.  However, we're also
allocating memory for the audit record buffer, so it's probably not that
significant.  I went ahead with a string key because it seems more
user-friendly.

Note that the user must ensure that filterkeys are unique.  The kernel only
checks for duplicate rules.

5e8d780d74 kbuild: fix ia64 breakage after introducing make -rR
kbuild used $¤(*F to get filename of target without extension.
This was used in several places all over kbuild, but introducing
make -rR broke his for all cases where we specified full path to
target/prerequsite. It is assumed that make -rR disables old style
suffix-rules which is why is suddenly failed.

ia64 was impacted by this change because several div* routines in
arch/ia64/lib are build using explicit paths and then kbuild failed.

Thanks to David Mosberger-Tang <David.Mosberger@acm.org> for an explanation
what was the root-cause and for testing on ia64.

This patch also fixes two uses of $(*F) in arch/um

2686de27a3 [SCSI] mptsas: eliminate ghost devices
One of the current problems the mptsas driver has is that of "ghost"
devices (these are devices the firmware reports as existing, but what
they actually represent are the parents of a lower device), so for
example in my dual expander configuration, three expanders actually show
up, two for the real expanders but a third is created because the
firmware reports that the lower expander also has another expander
connected (which is simply the port going back to the upper expander).

The attached patch eliminates all these ghosts by not allocating any
devices for them if the SAS address is the SAS address of the parent.

454e8957eb [SCSI] sg.c: Fix bad error handling in
I got a NULL derefrence in cdev_del+1 when called from sg_remove. By looking at
the code of sg_add, sg_alloc and sg_remove (all in drivers/scsi/sg.c) I found
out that sg_add is calling sg_alloc but if it fails afterwards it does not
deallocate the space that was allocated in sg_alloc and the redundant entry has
NULL in cdev. When sg_remove is being called, it tries to perform cdev_del to
this NULL cdev and fails.

ffab0d9507 ACPI: asus_acpi: rework model detection
This patch reworks laptop model detection.

This addresses the Samsung P30 issue, where the INIT method would return no
object, but the implicit return in the AML interpreter would confuse the
driver. It also accounts for a newer batch of Asus models whose INIT
returns ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER instead of STRING.

The handling is now much leaner, if we get a buffer or a string, we check
against known values, in every other case we use a different path
(currently DSDT signatures). The bulk of this patch is separating the
string matching from asus_hotk_get_info() into a separate function.

This patch properly fixes http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5067 and
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5092 and makes the driver fully
functional again with acpi=strict on all machines.

f83ef8c0b5 [IPV6]: Added GSO support for TCPv6
This patch adds GSO support for IPv6 and TCPv6.  This is based on a patch
by Ananda Raju <Ananda.Raju@neterion.com>.  His original description is:

	This patch enables TSO over IPv6. Currently Linux network stacks
	restricts TSO over IPv6 by clearing of the NETIF_F_TSO bit from
	"dev->features". This patch will remove this restriction.

	This patch will introduce a new flag NETIF_F_TSO6 which will be used
	to check whether device supports TSO over IPv6. If device support TSO
	over IPv6 then we don't clear of NETIF_F_TSO and which will make the
	TCP layer to create TSO packets. Any device supporting TSO over IPv6
	will set NETIF_F_TSO6 flag in "dev->features" along with NETIF_F_TSO.

	In case when user disables TSO using ethtool, NETIF_F_TSO will get
	cleared from "dev->features". So even if we have NETIF_F_TSO6 we don't
	get TSO packets created by TCP layer.

	SKB_GSO_TCPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_TCP to make it generic GSO packet.
	SKB_GSO_UDPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_UDP as UFO is not a IPv4 feature.
	UFO is supported over IPv6 also

	The following table shows there is significant improvement in
	throughput with normal frames and CPU usage for both normal and jumbo.

bcd7611117 [NET]: Generalise TSO-specific bits from skb_setup_caps
This patch generalises the TSO-specific bits from sk_setup_caps by adding
the sk_gso_type member to struct sock.  This makes sk_setup_caps generic
so that it can be used by TCPv6 or UFO.

The only catch is that whoever uses this must provide a GSO implementation
for their protocol which I think is a fair deal :) For now UFO continues to
live without a GSO implementation which is OK since it doesn't use the sock
caps field at the moment.

We don't need to check skb->len when we're just about to call
pskb_may_pull since that checks it for us.

dd7271feba [NETFILTER]: SCTP conntrack: fix crash triggered by packet without chunks
When a packet without any chunks is received, the newconntrack variable
in sctp_packet contains an out of bounds value that is used to look up an
pointer from the array of timeouts, which is then dereferenced, resulting
in a crash. Make sure at least a single chunk is present.
