c6cb3b5f36 [PATCH] powerpc: enable NAP only on cpus who support it to avoid memory corruption
This patch fixes incorrect setting of powersave_nap to 1 on all
PowerMacs, potentially causing memory corruption on some models. This
bug was introuced by me during the 32/64 bits merge.

0a45d4491d powerpc: Fix problem with time going backwards
The recent changes to keep gettimeofday in sync with xtime had the side
effect that it was occasionally possible for the time reported by
gettimeofday to go back by a microsecond.  There were two reasons:
(1) when we recalculated the offsets used by gettimeofday every 2^31
timebase ticks, we lost an accumulated fractional microsecond, and
(2) because the update is done some time after the notional start of
jiffy, if ntp is slowing the clock, it is possible to see time go backwards
when the timebase factor gets reduced.

This fixes it by (a) slowing the gettimeofday clock by about 1us in
2^31 timebase ticks (a factor of less than 1 in 3.7 million), and (b)
adjusting the timebase offsets in the rare case that the gettimeofday
result could possibly go backwards (i.e. when ntp is slowing the clock
and the timer interrupt is late).  In this case the adjustment will
reduce to zero eventually because of (a).

2d7f2ea9c9 [PATCH] Fix ext2 readdir f_pos re-validation logic
This fixes not one, but _two_, silly (but admittedly hard to hit) bugs
in the ext2 filesystem "readdir()" function.  It also cleans up the code
to avoid the unnecessary goto mess.

The bugs were related to re-valiating the f_pos value after somebody had
either done an "lseek()" on the directory to an invalid offset, or when
the offset had become invalid due to a file being unlinked in the
directory.  The code would not only set the f_version too eagerly, it
would also not update f_pos appropriately for when the offset fixup took
place.

When that happened, we'd occasionally subsequently fail the readdir()
even when we shouldn't (no real harm done, but an ugly printk, and
obviously you would end up not necessarily seeing all entries).

Thanks to Masoud Sharbiani <masouds@google.com> who noticed the problem
and had a test-case for it, and also fixed up a thinko in the first
version of this patch.

4983da07f1 [PATCH] page migration: fail if page is in a vma flagged VM_LOCKED
page migration currently simply retries a couple of times if try_to_unmap()
fails without inspecting the return code.

However, SWAP_FAIL indicates that the page is in a vma that has the
VM_LOCKED flag set (if ignore_refs ==1).  We can check for that return code
and avoid retrying the migration.

migrate_page_remove_references() now needs to return a reason why the
failure occured.  So switch migrate_page_remove_references to use -Exx
style error messages.

3fb962bde4 Fix a direct I/O locking issue revealed by the new mutex code.
Affects only XFS (i.e. DIO_OWN_LOCKING case) - currently it is
not possible to get i_mutex locking correct when using DIO_OWN
direct I/O locking in a filesystem due to indeterminism in the
possible return code/lock/unlock combinations.  This can cause
a direct read to attempt a double i_mutex unlock inside XFS.

We're now ensuring __blockdev_direct_IO always exits with the
inode i_mutex (still) held for a direct reader.

Tested with the three different locking modes (via direct block
device access, ext3 and XFS) - both reading and writing; cannot
find any regressions resulting from this change, and it clearly
fixes the mutex_unlock warning originally reported here:

143f412eb4 [PATCH] NFS: Fix a potential panic in O_DIRECT
Based on an original patch by Mike O'Connor and Greg Banks of SGI.

Mike states:

A normal user can panic an NFS client and cause a local DoS with
'judicious'(?) use of O_DIRECT.  Any O_DIRECT write to an NFS file where the
user buffer starts with a valid mapped page and contains an unmapped page,
will crash in this way.  I haven't followed the code, but O_DIRECT reads with
similar user buffers will probably also crash albeit in different ways.

Details: when nfs_get_user_pages() calls get_user_pages(), it detects and
correctly handles get_user_pages() returning an error, which happens if the
first page covered by the user buffer's address range is unmapped.  However,
if the first page is mapped but some subsequent page isn't, get_user_pages()
will return a positive number which is less than the number of pages requested
(this behaviour is sort of analagous to a short write() call and appears to be
intentional).  nfs_get_user_pages() doesn't detect this and hands off the
array of pages (whose last few elements are random rubbish from the newly
allocated array memory) to it's caller, whence they go to
nfs_direct_write_seg(), which then totally ignores the nr_pages it's given,
and calculates its own idea of how many pages are in the array from the user
buffer length.  Needless to say, when it comes to transmit those uninitialised
page* pointers, we see a crash in the network stack.

f9a3879abf [PATCH] Fix sigaltstack corruption among cloned threads
This patch fixes alternate signal stack corruption among cloned threads
with CLONE_SIGHAND (and CLONE_VM) for linux-2.6.16-rc6.

The value of alternate signal stack is currently inherited after a call of
clone(...  CLONE_SIGHAND | CLONE_VM).  But if sigaltstack is set by a
parent thread, and then if multiple cloned child threads (+ parent threads)
call signal handler at the same time, some threads may be conflicted -
because they share to use the same alternative signal stack region.
Finally they get sigsegv.  It's an undesirable race condition.  Note that
child threads created from NPTL pthread_create() also hit this conflict
when the parent thread uses sigaltstack, without my patch.

To fix this problem, this patch clears the child threads' sigaltstack
information like exec().  This behavior follows the SUSv3 specification.
In SUSv3, pthread_create() says "The alternate stack shall not be inherited
(when new threads are initialized)".  It means that sigaltstack should be
cleared when sigaltstack memory space is shared by cloned threads with
CLONE_SIGHAND.

Note that I chose "if (clone_flags & CLONE_SIGHAND)" line because:
  - If clone_flags line is not existed, fork() does not inherit sigaltstack.
  - CLONE_VM is another choice, but vfork() does not inherit sigaltstack.
  - CLONE_SIGHAND implies CLONE_VM, and it looks suitable.
  - CLONE_THREAD is another candidate, and includes CLONE_SIGHAND + CLONE_VM,
    but this flag has a bit different semantics.
I decided to use CLONE_SIGHAND.

[ Changed to test for CLONE_VM && !CLONE_VFORK after discussion --Linus ]

6acaba8e22 [PATCH] Restore tuning capabilities in V4L2 MXB driver
The behaviour of the all-in-one Video4Linux tuner driver apparently
changed.  It now wants to know the tv standard, otherwise it refuses to
tune.

Restore tuning functionality in my driver for the "Multimedia eXtension
Board".  The all-in-one tuner driver apparently changed its behaviour.

3cb4f09fc2 [PATCH] mtd_dataflash, fix block vs page erase
Fix a bug in the block-erase optimization for Dataflash; it was using block
erase even for smaller segments that need page erase.

That wouldn't matter for JFFS2, which never erases less than one block
(sometimes several blocks), but for other callers it might.

82dfdcae0d powerpc: Disallow lparcfg being a module
The lparcfg code needs several things which are pretty arcane internal
details and which we don't want to export, which means that lparcfg
doesn't work when built as a module.  This makes it a bool instead of
a tristate in the Kconfig so that users can't try to build it as a
module.

3759fa9c55 [TCP]: Fix zero port problem in IPv6
When we link a socket into the hash table, we need to make sure that we
set the num/port fields so that it shows us with a non-zero port value
in proc/netlink and on the wire.  This code and comment is copied over
from the IPv4 stack as is.

c33d4568ac [PATCH] x86-64: Fix up handling of non canonical user RIPs
EM64T CPUs have somewhat weird error reporting for non canonical RIPs in
SYSRET.

We can't handle any exceptions there because the exception handler would
end up running on the user stack which is unsafe.

To avoid problems any code that might end up with a user touched pt_regs
should return using int_ret_from_syscall.  int_ret_from_syscall ends up
using IRET, which allows safe exceptions.
