vmlinux.lds expects the fixup code to be on a section named .fixup. The
.text.fixup section is not mentioned on vmlinux.lds, and is included on
the resulting vmlinux (just after .text) only because of ld heuristics on
placing orphan sections.
However, placing .text.fixup outside .text breaks the definition of
_etext, making it exclude the .text.fixup contents. That makes .text.fixup
be ignored by the kernel initialization code that needs to know about
section locations, such as the code setting page protection bits.

Both v and vb->num_pages are u32 and unsigned int respectively. If v is less
than vb->num_pages (and it is, when deflating the balloon), the result is a
very large 32-bit number. Since we're returning a s64, instead of getting the
same negative number we desire, we get a very large positive number.
This handles the case where v < vb->num_pages and ensures we get a small,
negative, s64 as the result.
Rusty: please push this for 2.6.27-rc4. It's probably appropriate for the
stable tree too as it will cause an unexpected OOM when ballooning.

Many SoC audio codec drivers have improper freeing of memory in error
paths.
* codec is allocated in the platform device probe function, but is not
freed there in case of error. Instead it is freed in the i2c device
probe function's error path. However the success or failure of both
functions is not linked, so this could result in a double free (if
the platform device is successfully probed, the i2c device probing
fails and then the platform driver is unregistered.)
* codec->private_data is allocated in many platform device probe
functions but not freed in their error paths.
This patch hopefully solves all these problems.

David Witbrodt tracked down (and bisected) a hpet bootup hang on his
system to the following problem: a BIOS bug made the hpet device
visible as a generic PCI device. If e820 reserved entries happen to
be registered first in the resource tree [which v2.6.26 started doing],
then the PCI code will reallocate that device's BAR to some other
address - breaking timer IRQs and hanging the system.
( Normally hpet devices are hidden by the BIOS from the OS's PCI
discovery via chipset magic. Sometimes the hpet is not a PCI device
at all. )
Solve this fundamental fragility by making non-PCI platform drivers
insert resources into the resource tree even if it overlaps the e820
reserved entry, to keep the resource manager from updating the BAR.
Also do these checks for the ioapic and mmconfig addresses, and emit
a warning if this happens.

DRAW_INDEX writes a vertex count to VAP_VF_CNTL. Docs say that behaviour
is undefined (i.e. lockups happen) when this write is not followed by the
right number of vertex indices.
Thus we used to do the wrong thing when drawing across many cliprects was
necessary, because we emitted a sequence
DRAW_INDEX, DRAW_INDEX, INDX_BUFFER, INDX_BUFFER
instead of
DRAW_INDEX, INDX_BUFFER, DRAW_INDEX, INDX_BUFFER

The mv643xx_eth hardware ignores the lower three bits of the buffer
size field in receive descriptors, causing the reception of full-sized
packets to fail at some MTUs. Fix this by rounding the size of
allocated receive buffers up to a multiple of eight bytes.
While we are at it, add a bit of extra space to each receive buffer so
that we can handle multiple vlan tags on ingress.

When we are low on memory, the assumption that every descriptor in the
receive ring will have an skbuff associated with it does not hold.
rxq_process() was assuming that if the receive descriptor it is working
on is not owned by the hardware, it can safely be processed and handed
to the networking stack. But a descriptor in the receive ring not being
owned by the hardware can also happen when we are low on memory and did
not manage to refill the receive ring fully.
This patch changes rxq_process()'s bailout condition from "the first
receive descriptor to be processed is owned by the hardware" to "the
first receive descriptor to be processed is owned by the hardware OR
the number of valid receive descriptors in the ring is zero".

Nicolas Pitre noted that mv643xx_eth_poll was incorrectly using
non-IRQ-safe locks while checking whether to wake up the netdevice's

Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com>
Commit 12e4ab79cd ("mv643xx_eth: be
more agressive about RX refill") changed the condition for the receive
out-of-memory timer to be scheduled from "the receive ring is empty"
to "the receive ring is not full".
This can lead to a situation where the receive out-of-memory timer is
pending because a previous rxq_refill() didn't manage to refill the
receive ring entirely as a result of being out of memory, and
rxq_refill() is then called again as a side effect of a packet receive
interrupt, and that rxq_refill() call then again does not succeed to
refill the entire receive ring with fresh empty skbuffs because we are
still out of memory, and then tries to call add_timer() on the already
scheduled out-of-memory timer.
This patch fixes this issue by changing the add_timer() call in
rxq_refill() to a mod_timer() call. If the OOM timer was not already
scheduled, this will behave as before, whereas if it was already
scheduled, this patch will push back its firing time a bit, which is
safe because we've (unsuccessfully) attempted to refill the receive
ring just before we do this.

When a receive interrupt occurs, mv643xx_eth would first process the
receive descriptors and then ACK the receive interrupt, instead of the
other way round.
This would leave a small race window between processing the last
receive descriptor and clearing the receive interrupt status in which
a new packet could come in, which would then 'rot' in the receive
ring until the next receive interrupt would come in.
Fix this by ACKing (clearing) the receive interrupt condition before
processing the receive descriptors.

During CPU hot-remove the sysfs directory created by
threshold_create_bank(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_amd_64.c, has to be removed before
its parent directory, created by mce_create_device(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_64.c . Moreover, when the CPU in
question is hotplugged again, obviously the latter has to be created
before the former. At present, the right ordering is not enforced,
because all of these operations are carried out by CPU hotplug
notifiers which are not appropriately ordered with respect to each
other. This leads to serious problems on systems with two or more
multicore AMD CPUs, among other things during suspend and hibernation.
Fix the problem by placing threshold bank CPU hotplug callbacks in
mce_cpu_callback(), so that they are invoked at the right places,
if defined. Additionally, use kobject_del() to remove the sysfs
directory associated with the kobject created by
kobject_create_and_add() in threshold_create_bank(), to prevent the
kernel from crashing during CPU hotplug operations on systems with
two or more multicore AMD CPUs.
This patch fixes bug #11337.

This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is
necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an
interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected
route, and other as a kernel route.
When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message
causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is
added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with
the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it
already has the connected route.
The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol ==
