Commit 221af7f87b ("Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions") split
the function at the point of no return - ie right where there were no
more error cases to check. That made sense from a technical standpoint,
but when we then also combined it with the actual personality setting
going in between flush_old_exec() and setup_new_exec(), it needs to be a
bit more careful.
In particular, we need to make sure that we really flush the old
personality bits in the 'flush' stage, rather than later in the 'setup'
stage, since otherwise we might be flushing the _new_ personality state
that we're just setting up.
So this moves the flags and personality flushing (and 'flush_thread()',
which is the arch-specific function that generally resets lazy FP state
etc) of the old process into flush_old_exec(), so that it doesn't affect
any state that execve() is setting up for the new process environment.
This was reported by Michal Simek as breaking his Microblaze qemu
environment.

Few weeks back, Shaohua Li had posted similar patch. I am reposting it
with more test results.
This patch does two things.
- Do not idle on async queues.
- It also changes the write queue depth CFQ drives (cfq_may_dispatch()).
Currently, we seem to driving queue depth of 1 always for WRITES. This is
true even if there is only one write queue in the system and all the logic
of infinite queue depth in case of single busy queue as well as slowly
increasing queue depth based on last delayed sync request does not seem to
be kicking in at all.
This patch will allow deeper WRITE queue depths (subjected to the other
WRITE queue depth contstraints like cfq_quantum and last delayed sync
request).
Shaohua Li had reported getting more out of his SSD. For me, I have got
one Lun exported from an HP EVA and when pure buffered writes are on, I
can get more out of the system. Following are test results of pure
buffered writes (with end_fsync=1) with vanilla and patched kernel. These
results are average of 3 sets of run with increasing number of threads.

I also ran buffered writes along with some sequential reads and some
buffered reads going on in the system on a SATA disk because the potential
risk could be that we should not be driving queue depth higher in presence
of sync IO going to keep the max clat low.
With some random and sequential reads going on in the system on one SATA
disk I did not see any significant increase in max clat. So it looks like
other WRITE queue depth control logic is doing its job. Here are the
results.

The spi_sh_msiof.c driver presently misconfigures REDG and TEDG. TEDG==0
outputs data at the **rising edge** of the clock and REDG==0 samples data
at the **falling edge** of the clock. Therefore for SPI, TEDG must be
equal to REDG, otherwise the last byte received is not sampled in SPI
mode 3.
This brings the driver in line with the SH7723 HW Reference Manual
settings documented in Figures 20.20 and 20.21 ("SPI Clock and data
timing").

No other driver does anything remotely like this that I know of except
for the tty drivers, and I can't see any reason for random/urandom to do
it. In fact, it's a (trivial, harmless) timing information leak. And
obviously, it generates power- and flash-cycle wasting I/O, especially
if combined with something like hwrngd. Also, it breaks ubifs's
expectations.

DBDMA descriptors need to be located at 32-byte aligned addresses;
however kmalloc in conjunction with the SLAB allocator and
CONFIG_DEBUG_SLUB enabled doesn't deliver any. The dbdma code works
around that by allocating a larger area and realigning the start
address within it.
When freeing a channel however this adjustment is not taken into
account which results in an oops:
Kernel bug detected[#1]:

Fix this by recording the address delivered by kmalloc() and using
it as parameter to kfree().
This fix is only necessary with the SLAB allocator and CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
enabled; non-debug SLAB, SLUB do return nicely aligned addresses,
debug-enabled SLUB currently panics early in the boot process.

ince gfs2 writes the rindex file a block at a time, and releases the
exclusive lock after each block, it is possible that another process
will grab the lock in the middle of the write. Since rindex entries are
not an even divisor of blocks, that other process may see partial
entries. On grows, this is fine. The process can simply ignore the the
partial entires. Previously, the code withdrew when it saw partial
entries. Now it simply ignores them.

When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, sched_clock() gets
the time from hardware such as the TSC on x86. In this
configuration kgdb will report a softlock warning message on
resuming or detaching from a debug session.
Sequence of events in the problem case:
1) "cpu sched clock" and "hardware time" are at 100 sec prior
to a call to kgdb_handle_exception()
2) Debugger waits in kgdb_handle_exception() for 80 sec and on
exit the following is called ... touch_softlockup_watchdog() -->
__raw_get_cpu_var(touch_timestamp) = 0;
3) "cpu sched clock" = 100s (it was not updated, because the
interrupt was disabled in kgdb) but the "hardware time" = 180 sec
4) The first timer interrupt after resuming from
kgdb_handle_exception updates the watchdog from the "cpu sched clock"
update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() -->
softlockup_tick() --> check (touch_timestamp == 0) (it is "YES"
here, we have set "touch_timestamp = 0" at kgdb) -->
__touch_softlockup_watchdog() ***(A)--> reset "touch_timestamp"
to "get_timestamp()" (Here, the "touch_timestamp" will still be
set to 100s.) ...
scheduler_tick() ***(B)--> sched_clock_tick() (update "cpu sched
clock" to "hardware time" = 180s) ... }
5) The Second timer interrupt handler appears to have a large
jump and trips the softlockup warning.
update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() -->
softlockup_tick() --> "cpu sched clock" - "touch_timestamp" =
180s-100s > 60s --> printk "soft lockup error messages" ... }
note: ***(A) reset "touch_timestamp" to
"get_timestamp(this_cpu)"
Why is "touch_timestamp" 100 sec, instead of 180 sec?
When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, the call trace of
get_timestamp() is:
get_timestamp(this_cpu)
-->cpu_clock(this_cpu)
-->sched_clock_cpu(this_cpu)
-->__update_sched_clock(sched_clock_data, now)
The __update_sched_clock() function uses the GTOD tick value to
create a window to normalize the "now" values. So if "now"
value is too big for sched_clock_data, it will be ignored.
The fix is to invoke sched_clock_tick() to update "cpu sched
clock" in order to recover from this state. This is done by
introducing the function touch_softlockup_watchdog_sync(). This
allows kgdb to request that the sched clock is updated when the
watchdog thread runs the first time after a resume from kgdb.
