This loop that sets up the hash_table has problems.
Careful examination will show that the last time through, everything but
the first line is pointless. This is because all it does is change 'cur'
and 'size' and neither of these are used after the loop. This should ring
warning bells... That last time through the loop,
size += conf->strip_zone[cur].size
can index off the end of the strip_zone array. Depending on what it finds
there, it might exit the loop cleanly, or it might spin going further and
further beyond the array until it hits an unmapped address.
This patch rearranges the code so that the last, pointless, iteration of
the loop never happens. i.e. the one statement of the last loop that is
needed is moved the the end of the previous loop - or to before the loop
starts - and the loop counter starts from 1 instead of 0.

Both cause the 'entries' count in the export cache to be non-zero at module
removal time, so unregistering that cache fails and results in an oops.
1/ exp_pseudoroot (used for NFSv4 only) leaks a reference to an export
entry.
2/ sunrpc_cache_update doesn't increment the entries count when it adds
an entry.

Using asm-generic/dma-mapping.h does not work because pushing
the call down to pci_alloc_coherent() causes the gfp_t argument
of dma_alloc_coherent() to be ignored.
Fix this by implementing things directly, and adding a gfp_t
argument we can use in the internal call down to the PCI DMA
implementation of pci_alloc_coherent().
This fixes massive memory corruption when using the sound driver
layer, which passes things like __GFP_COMP down into these

Fix memory corruption caused by snmp_trap_decode:
- When snmp_trap_decode fails before the id and address are allocated,
the pointers contain random memory, but are freed by the caller
(snmp_parse_mangle).
- When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating just the ID, it tries
to free both address and ID, but the address pointer still contains
random memory. The caller frees both ID and random memory again.
- When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating both, it frees both,
and the callers frees both again.
The corruption can be triggered remotely when the ip_nat_snmp_basic
module is loaded and traffic on port 161 or 162 is NATed.

Andy added code to buddy allocator which does not require the zone's
endpoints to be aligned to MAX_ORDER. An issue is that the buddy allocator
requires the node_mem_map's endpoints to be MAX_ORDER aligned. Otherwise
__page_find_buddy could compute a buddy not in node_mem_map for partial
MAX_ORDER regions at zone's endpoints. page_is_buddy will detect that
these pages at endpoints are not PG_buddy (they were zeroed out by bootmem
allocator and not part of zone). Of course the negative here is we could
waste a little memory but the positive is eliminating all the old checks
for zone boundary conditions.
SPARSEMEM won't encounter this issue because of MAX_ORDER size constraint
when SPARSEMEM is configured. ia64 VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP doesn't need the logic
either because the holes and endpoints are handled differently. This
leaves checking alloc_remap and other arches which privately allocate for
node_mem_map.

The 32 bit unsigned substraction (next - jiffies) in stop_hz_timer can
overflow if jiffies gets advanced between next_timer_interrupt and the read
under the xtime lock. The cast to a u64 then results in a large value
which causes the cpu to wait too long. Fix this by casting next and

Under certain timing conditions, a race during boot occurs where timer
ticks are being processed on remote CPUs. The remote timer ticks can
increment jiffies, and if this happens during a window when a timeout is
very close to expiring but a local tick has not yet been delivered, you can
end up with
1) No softirq pending
2) A local timer wheel which is not synced to jiffies
3) No high resolution timer active
4) A local timer which is supposed to fire before the current jiffies value.
In this circumstance, the comparison in next_timer_interrupt overflows,
because the base of the comparison for high resolution timers is jiffies,
but for the softirq timer wheel, it is relative the the current base of the
wheel (jiffies_base).

The rule for when mm/page_alloc.c should call cpuset_zone_allowed()
was intended to be:
Don't call cpuset_zone_allowed() if you can't sleep, unless you
pass in the __GFP_HARDWALL flag set in gfp_flag, which disables
the code that might scan up ancestor cpusets and sleep.
The explanation of this rule in the comment above cpuset_zone_allowed() was
stale, as a result of a restructuring of some __alloc_pages() code in
November 2005.

Fix a couple of infrequently encountered 'sleeping function called from
invalid context' in the cpuset hooks in __alloc_pages. Could sleep while
interrupts disabled.
The routine cpuset_zone_allowed() is called by code in mm/page_alloc.c
__alloc_pages() to determine if a zone is allowed in the current tasks
cpuset. This routine can sleep, for certain GFP_KERNEL allocations, if the
zone is on a memory node not allowed in the current cpuset, but might be
allowed in a parent cpuset.
But we can't sleep in __alloc_pages() if in interrupt, nor if called for a
GFP_ATOMIC request (__GFP_WAIT not set in gfp_flags).
The rule was intended to be:
Don't call cpuset_zone_allowed() if you can't sleep, unless you
pass in the __GFP_HARDWALL flag set in gfp_flag, which disables
the code that might scan up ancestor cpusets and sleep.
This rule was being violated in a couple of places, due to a bogus change
made (by myself, pj) to __alloc_pages() as part of the November 2005 effort
to cleanup its logic, and also due to a later fix to constrain which swap
daemons were awoken.
The bogus change can be seen at:
http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2005-11/4691.html
[PATCH 01/05] mm fix __alloc_pages cpuset ALLOC_* flags
This was first noticed on a tight memory system, in code that was disabling
interrupts and doing allocation requests with __GFP_WAIT not set, which
resulted in __might_sleep() writing complaints to the log "Debug: sleeping
function called ...", when the code in cpuset_zone_allowed() tried to take
the callback_sem cpuset semaphore.
We haven't seen a system hang on this 'might_sleep' yet, but we are at
decent risk of seeing it fairly soon, especially since the additional
cpuset_zone_allowed() check was added, conditioning wakeup_kswapd(), in
March 2006.
Special thanks to Dave Chinner, for figuring this out, and a tip of the hat
to Nick Piggin who warned me of this back in Nov 2005, before I was ready
