schedule() checks PF_DEAD on every context switch and sets ->state = EXIT_DEAD
to ensure that the exiting task will be deactivated. Note that this EXIT_DEAD
is in fact a "random" value, we can use any bit except normal TASK_XXX values.
It is better to set this state in do_exit() along with PF_DEAD flag and remove
that check in schedule().
We are safe wrt concurrent try_to_wake_up() (for example ptrace, tkill), it
can not change task's ->state: the 'state' argument of try_to_wake_up() can't
have EXIT_DEAD bit. And in case when try_to_wake_up() sees a stale value of
->state == TASK_RUNNING it will do nothing.

Introduce the disable_irq_nosync_lockdep_irqsave() and
enable_irq_lockdep_irqrestore() APIs. These are needed for NE2000; basically
NE2000 calls disable_irq and enable_irq as locking against the IRQ handler,
but both in cases where interrupts are on and off. This means that lockdep
needs to track the old state of the virtual irq flags on disable_irq, and
restore these at enable_irq time.

The lock annotations used on spinlocks and rwlocks currently use
__{acquires,releases}(spinlock_t) and __{acquires,releases}(rwlock_t),
respectively. This loses the information of which lock actually got
acquired or released, and assumes a different type for the parameter of
__acquires and __releases than the rest of the kernel. While the current
implementations of __acquires and __releases throw away their argument,
this will not always remain the case. Change this to use the lock
parameter instead, to preserve this information and increase consistency in
usage of __acquires and __releases.

I am not sure this patch is correct: I can't understand what the current
code does, and I don't know what it was supposed to do.
The comment says:
* can't change policy, except between SCHED_NORMAL
* and SCHED_BATCH:
The code:
if (((policy != SCHED_NORMAL && p->policy != SCHED_BATCH) &&
(policy != SCHED_BATCH && p->policy != SCHED_NORMAL)) &&
But this is equivalent to:
if ( (is_rt_policy(policy) && has_rt_policy(p)) &&
which means something different. We can't _decrease_ the current
->rt_priority with such a check (if rlim[RLIMIT_RTPRIO] == 0).
Probably, it was supposed to be:
if ( !(policy == SCHED_NORMAL && p->policy == SCHED_BATCH) &&
!(policy == SCHED_BATCH && p->policy == SCHED_NORMAL)
this matches the comment, but strange: it doesn't allow to _drop_ the
realtime priority when rlim[RLIMIT_RTPRIO] == 0.
I think the right check would be:
/* can't set/change rt policy */
if (is_rt_policy(policy) &&
policy != p->policy &&
!rlim_rtprio)
return -EPERM;

Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390
timer interrupt handler with this change.
Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but
callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update. Passing ticks
get rid of this redundant calculation. Also there are another redundancy
pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky.
This cleanup make a barrier added by
5aee405c66 needless. So this patch removes
it.
As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now
wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies. (This patch does not really

There was an I/O error that prevented reading the last partial block of
large files in an ISO9660 filesystem. The error was generated when a file
comprised more than one section and had a size that was not an exact
multiple of the filesystem block size. This patch removes the check (and
failure) for reading into the last partial block (and possibly beyond) for
multiple-section files.
It worked in my testing to prevent reading beyond the end of the section;
my first patch just incremented the sect_size block count for a partial
block and continued doing the check. But there is a commment in the source
code about reading beyond the end of the file to fill a page cache.
Failing to access beyond the section would prevent reading beyond the end
of the file.
