2aed2827df [NETNS]: The ip6_fib_timer can work with garbage on net namespace stop.
The del_timer() function doesn't guarantee, that the timer callback
is not active by the time it exits.

Thus, the fib6_net_exit() may kfree() all the data, that is required
by the fib6_run_gc(). The race window is tiny, but slab poisoning can
trigger this bug.

Using del_timer_sync() will cure this.

d44e0fc704 dlm: recover nodes that are removed and re-added
If a node is removed from a lockspace, and then added back before the
dlm is notified of the removal, the dlm will not detect the removal
and won't clear the old state from the node.  This is fixed by using a
list of added nodes so the membership recovery can detect when a newly
added node is already in the member list.

761b9d3ffc dlm: save master info after failed no-queue request
When a NOQUEUE request fails, the rsb res_master field is unnecessarily
reset to -1, instead of leaving the valid master setting in place.  We
want to save the looked-up master values while the rsb is on the "toss
list" so that another lookup can be avoided if the rsb is soon reused.
The fix is to simply leave res_master value alone.

cc216c5d42 Fix RCU list iterator use of 'rcu_dereference()'
The RCU iterators used 'rcu_dereference()' on an already-fetched RCU
pointer value, which defeats the whole point of the exercise.

When we dereference a pointer protected by RCU, we need to make sure
that we only fetch the value _once_, because if the compiler ends up
re-loading it due to register pressure, the newly reloaded value could
be different from the previously fetched one, and you get inconsistent
results.

Cleaned-up, fixed, and the pointless list_for_each_safe_rcu #define
deleted by Paul Kenney.

828dfe1da5 SELinux: whitespace and formating fixes for hooks.c
All whitespace and formatting.  Nothing interesting to see here.  About
the only thing to remember is that we aren't supposed to initialize
static variables to 0/NULL.  It is done for us and doing it ourselves
puts them in a different section.

With this patch running checkpatch.pl against hooks.c only gives us
complaints about busting the 80 character limit and declaring extern's
in .c files.  Apparently they don't like it, but I don't feel like going
to the trouble of moving those to .h files...

fb19974630 block: fix blk_register_queue() return value
blk_register_queue() returns -ENXIO when queue->request_fn is NULL.  But there
are some block drivers that call blk_register_queue() via add_disk() with
queue->request_fn == NULL.  (For example, brd, loop)

Although no one checks return value of blk_register_queue(), this patch makes
it return 0 instead of -ENXIO when queue->request_fn is NULL,

Also this patch adds warning when blk_register_queue() and
blk_unregister_queue() are called with queue == NULL rather than ignore
invalid usage silently.

2472892a3c block: fix memory hotplug and bouncing in block layer
Only noticed this while hacking something else, no test case.

blk_max_low_pfn is initialized once at bootup by the block layer from
max_low_pfn.  But max_low_pfn is not necessarily constant over the runtime of
the system when you consider memory hotplug.  What could happen if that
someone adds memory later the block layer wouldn't get updated and then start
bouncing memory unnecessarily.

Also on 64bit blk_max_low_pfn actually isn't needed because it just disables
bouncing essentially and there is no highmem.  And nobody can pass pfns >
max_low_pfn to the block layer, because those wouldn't have a struct page and
I suspect block layer wouldn't be very happy without that.

So set BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH to infinity (-1ULL) on 64bit.  That avoids the problem
of having to update it on memory hotadd.

On 32bit I kept the same behaviour because at least on i386
memory hotadd only adds HIGHMEM, never lowmem.

BLK_BOUNCE_ANY is always set to infinity on both 32 and 64bit.
