Add limited retry logic to netpoll_send_skb
Each time we attempt to send, decrement our per-device retry counter.
On every successful send, we reset the counter.
We delay 50us between attempts with up to 20000 retries for a total of

Revert commit fec59a711e, which is
breaking sparc64 that doesn't have a working pci_update_resource.
We'll re-do this after 2.6.13 when we'll do it all properly.
We have some nasty issues with 2.6.12-rc6. Any request to scan on
the lpfc or qla2xxx FC adapters will oops. What is happening is the
system is defaulting to non-transport registered targets, which
inherit the parent of the scan. On this second scan, performed by
the attribute, the parent becomes the shost instead of the rport.
The slave functions in the 2 FC adapters use starget_to_rport()
routines, which incorrectly map the shost as an rport pointer.
Additionally, this pointed out other weaknesses:
- If the target structure is torn down outside of the transport,
we have no method for it to be regenerated at the proper parent.
- We have race conditions on the target being allocated by both
the midlayer scan (parent=shost) and by the fc transport
(parent=rport).

The patch below unhooks fsnotify from vfs_unlink & vfs_rmdir. It
introduces two new fsnotify calls, that are hooked in at the dcache
level. This not only more closely matches how the VFS layer works, it
also avoids the problem with locking and inode lifetimes.
The two functions are
- fsnotify_nameremove -- called when a directory entry is going away.
It notifies the PARENT of the deletion. This is called from
d_delete().
- inoderemove -- called when the files inode itself is going away. It
notifies the inode that is being deleted. This is called from
dentry_iput().

There are certain rogue devices (and the aic7xxx driver) that return
BUSY or QUEUE_FULL forever. This code will apply a global timeout (of
the total number of retries times the per command timer) to a given
command. If it is exceeded, the command is completed regardless of its
state.
The patch also removes the unused field in the command: timeout and
timeout_total.
This solves the problem of detecting an endless loop in the mid-layer
because of BUSY/QUEUE_FULL bouncing, but will not recover the device.
In the aic7xxx case, the driver can be recovered by sending a bus reset,
so possibly this should be tied into the error handler?

My patch in commit fa72b903f7 incorrectly
removed blk_queue_tag->real_max_depth.
The original resize implementation was incorrect in the following
points.
* actual allocation size of tag_index was shorter than real_max_size,
but assumed to be of the same size, possibly causing memory access
beyond the allocated area.
* bits in tag_map between max_deptn and real_max_depth were
initialized to 1's, making the tags permanently reserved.
In an attempt to fix above two bugs, I had removed allocation optimization
in init_tag_map and real_max_size. Tag map/index were allocated and freed
immediately during resize.
Unfortunately, I wasn't considering that tag map/index can be resized
dynamically with tags beyond new_depth active. This led to accessing
freed area after shrinking tags and led to the following bug reporting
thread on linux-scsi.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112319898111885&w=2
To fix the problem, I've revived real_max_depth without allocation
optimization in init_tag_map, and Andrew Vasquez confirmed that the
problem was fixed. As Jens is not going to be available for a week, he
asked me to make sure that this patch reaches you.

Some PCI devices (e.g. 3c905B, 3c556B) lose all configuration
(including BARs) when transitioning from D3hot->D0. This leaves such
a device in an inaccessible state. The patch below causes the BARs
to be restored when enabling such a device, so that its driver will
be able to access it.
The patch also adds pci_restore_bars as a new global symbol, and adds a
correpsonding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for that.
Some firmware (e.g. Thinkpad T21) leaves devices in D3hot after a
(re)boot. Most drivers call pci_enable_device very early, so devices
left in D3hot that lose configuration during the D3hot->D0 transition
will be inaccessible to their drivers.
Drivers could be modified to account for this, but it would
be difficult to know which drivers need modification. This is
especially true since often many devices are covered by the same
driver. It likely would be necessary to replicate code across dozens
of drivers.
The patch below should trigger only when transitioning from D3hot->D0
(or at boot), and only for devices that have the "no soft reset" bit
cleared in the PM control register. I believe it is safe to include
this patch as part of the PCI infrastructure.
The cleanest implementation of pci_restore_bars was to call
pci_update_resource. Unfortunately, that does not currently exist
for the sparc64 architecture. The patch below includes a null
implemenation of pci_update_resource for sparc64.
Some have expressed interest in making general use of the the
pci_restore_bars function, so that has been exported to GPL licensed
modules.

Checking pte_dirty instead of pte_write in __follow_page is problematic
for s390, and for copy_one_pte which leaves dirty when clearing write.
So revert __follow_page to check pte_write as before, and make
do_wp_page pass back a special extra VM_FAULT_WRITE bit to say it has
done its full job: once get_user_pages receives this value, it no longer
requires pte_write in __follow_page.
But most callers of handle_mm_fault, in the various architectures, have
switch statements which do not expect this new case. To avoid changing
them all in a hurry, make an inline wrapper function (using the old
name) that masks off the new bit, and use the extended interface with
double underscores.
Yes, we do have a call to do_wp_page from do_swap_page, but no need to
change that: in rare case it's needed, another do_wp_page will follow.

There is a number of x86 laptops that have some non-PCI IO ports
in the 0x1000-0x1fff range, and it's quite hard to control the correct
order of resource allocation between PCI and other subsystems controlling
these ports. Especially with modular kernel.
So just increase PCIBIOS_MIN_IO to 0x4000 to prevent any new PCI
resource allocations in the problematic range (this limitation must
apply _only_ to the root bus resources - see Linus' change in
pci_bus_alloc_resource). As PCIBIOS_MIN_IO and PCIBIOS_MIN_CARDBUS_IO
are the same now on i386 and x86-64, we can remove the latter.

sync_tsc was using smp_call_function to ask the boot processor to report
it's tsc value. smp_call_function performs an IPI_send_allbutself which is
a broadcast ipi. There is a window during processor startup during which
the target cpu has started and before it has initialized it's interrupt
vectors so it can properly process an interrupt. Receveing an interrupt
during that window will triple fault the cpu and do other nasty things.
Why cli does not protect us from that is beyond me.
The simple fix is to match ia64 and provide a smp_call_function_single.
Which avoids the broadcast and is more efficient.
This certainly fixes the problem of getting stuck on boot which was
very easy to trigger on my SMP Hyperthreaded Xeon, and I think
it fixes it for the right reasons.

ALSA Core
This patch changes, adds and remove some comments, which will
make now more sense and fit on a 80-char line. It also changes
the order of snd_power_wait() to make the file more readable.
It removes the device.c comment in front of _snd_minor,
cause snd_minor has nothing to do with device.c.
The both typos in the kernel-docs were corrected too.

`gcc -W' likes to complain if the static keyword is not at the beginning of
the declaration. This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline
static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in
47 files).
While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace
that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here
and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

I believe that there is a problem with the handling of POSIX locks, which
the attached patch should address.
The problem appears to be a race between fcntl(2) and close(2). A
multithreaded application could close a file descriptor at the same time as
it is trying to acquire a lock using the same file descriptor. I would
suggest that that multithreaded application is not providing the proper
synchronization for itself, but the OS should still behave correctly.
SUS3 (Single UNIX Specification Version 3, read: POSIX) indicates that when
a file descriptor is closed, that all POSIX locks on the file, owned by the
process which closed the file descriptor, should be released.
The trick here is when those locks are released. The current code releases
all locks which exist when close is processing, but any locks in progress
are handled when the last reference to the open file is released.
There are three cases to consider.
One is the simple case, a multithreaded (mt) process has a file open and
races to close it and acquire a lock on it. In this case, the close will
release one reference to the open file and when the fcntl is done, it will
release the other reference. For this situation, no locks should exist on
the file when both the close and fcntl operations are done. The current
system will handle this case because the last reference to the open file is
being released.
The second case is when the mt process has dup(2)'d the file descriptor.
The close will release one reference to the file and the fcntl, when done,
will release another, but there will still be at least one more reference
to the open file. One could argue that the existence of a lock on the file
after the close has completed is okay, because it was acquired after the
close operation and there is still a way for the application to release the
lock on the file, using an existing file descriptor.
The third case is when the mt process has forked, after opening the file
and either before or after becoming an mt process. In this case, each
process would hold a reference to the open file. For each process, this
degenerates to first case above. However, the lock continues to exist
until both processes have released their references to the open file. This
lock could block other lock requests.
The changes to release the lock when the last reference to the open file
aren't quite right because they would allow the lock to exist as long as
there was a reference to the open file. This is too long.
The new proposed solution is to add support in the fcntl code path to
detect a race with close and then to release the lock which was just
acquired when such as race is detected. This causes locks to be released
in a timely fashion and for the system to conform to the POSIX semantic
specification.
This was tested by instrumenting a kernel to detect the handling locks and
then running a program which generates case #3 above. A dangling lock
could be reliably generated. When the changes to detect the close/fcntl
race were added, a dangling lock could no longer be generated.

The find_next_{zero}_bit primitives on s390* should never return a bit number
bigger then the bit field size. In the case of a bitfield that doesn't end on
a word boundary, an offset that makes the search start at the last word of the
bit field and the last word doesn't contain any zero/one bits the search is
continued with a call to find_first_bit with a negative size. The search
normally ends pretty quickly because the words following the bit field contain
a mix of zeros and ones. But the bit number that is returned in this case is
too big.
To fix this and additional if to check for this case is needed. To make the
code easier to read I removed the assembler parts from the
find_next_{zero}_bit functions, the C-ified code is as good.

Split spin lock and r/w lock implementation into a single try which is done
inline and an out of line function that repeatedly tries to get the lock
before doing the cpu_relax(). Add a system control to set the number of
retries before a cpu is yielded.
The reason for the spin lock retry is that the diagnose 0x44 that is used to
give up the virtual cpu is quite expensive. For spin locks that are held only
for a short period of time the costs of the diagnoses outweights the savings
for spin locks that are held for a longer timer. The default retry count is
1000.
