fec12a62d7 Documentation: fix the now deprecated reference to {set,reset}_scoop_gpio
Due to recent patches removing the now deprecated references to
{set,reset}_scoop_gpio() and converting them to the generic GPIO
API, the references in the documentation also need to be fixed.

4fe3224fff [ARM] pxa/spitz: use leds-gpio for led driving and drop leds-spitz
Now as the scoop pins are covered by the generic gpio API,
we can use leds-gpio driver instead of special leds-spitz

Drop leds-spitz.c and the declarations of now un-referenced
spitzscoop_device, spitzscoop2_device.

e550dfb0c2 ipv6: Fix OOPS in ip6_dst_lookup_tail().
This fixes kernel bugzilla 11469: "TUN with 1024 neighbours:
ip6_dst_lookup_tail NULL crash"

dst->neighbour is not necessarily hooked up at this point
in the processing path, so blindly dereferencing it is
the wrong thing to do.  This NULL check exists in other
similar paths and this case was just an oversight.

Also fix the completely wrong and confusing indentation
here while we're at it.

Based upon a patch by Evgeniy Polyakov.

61c22c34c6 clockevents: remove WARN_ON which was used to gather information
The issue of the endless reprogramming loop due to a too small
min_delta_ns was fixed with the previous updates of the clock events
code, but we had no information about the spread of this problem. I
added a WARN_ON to get automated information via kerneloops.org and to
get some direct reports, which allowed me to analyse the affected
machines.

The WARN_ON has served its purpose and would be annoying for a release
kernel. Remove it and just keep the information about the increase of
the min_delta_ns value.

d6be118a97 x86: fix memmap=exactmap boot argument
When using kdump modifying the e820 map is yielding strange results.

For example starting with

 BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
 BIOS-e820: 0000000000000100 - 0000000000093400 (usable)
 BIOS-e820: 0000000000093400 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved)
 BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 000000003fee0000 (usable)

 BIOS-e820: 000000003fef3000 - 000000003ff80000 (ACPI NVS)
 BIOS-e820: 000000003ff80000 - 0000000040000000 (reserved)
 BIOS-e820: 00000000e0000000 - 00000000f0000000 (reserved)
 BIOS-e820: 00000000fec00000 - 00000000fec10000 (reserved)

 BIOS-e820: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)

and booting with args

memmap=exactmap memmap=640K@0K memmap=5228K@16384K memmap=125188K@22252K memmap=76K#1047424K memmap=564K#1047500K

resulted in:

 user-defined physical RAM map:
 user: 0000000000000000 - 0000000000093400 (usable)
 user: 0000000000093400 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved)
 user: 0000000000100000 - 000000003fee0000 (usable)

 user: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)

But should have resulted in:

 user-defined physical RAM map:
 user: 0000000000000000 - 00000000000a0000 (usable)
 user: 0000000001000000 - 000000000151b000 (usable)
 user: 00000000015bb000 - 0000000008ffc000 (usable)
 user: 000000003fee0000 - 000000003ff80000 (ACPI data)

This is happening because of an improper usage of strcmp() in the
e820 parsing code.  The strcmp() always returns !0 and never resets the
value for e820.nr_map and returns an incorrect user-defined map.

This patch fixes the problem.

deac93df26 lib: Correct printk %pF to work on all architectures
It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer
formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7.  However,
the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64.  For two reasons: 1)
parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for
function descriptors

Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing
architecture overrides.  I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64
and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel
internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

adaae7215e update Documentation/filesystems/Locking for 2.6.27 changes
In the 2.6.27 circle ->fasync lost the BKL, and the last remaining
->open variant that takes the BKL is also gone.  ->get_sb and ->kill_sb
didn't have BKL forever, so updated the entries while we're at that.

b301ea8c81 [S390] cio: allow offline processing for disconnected devices
When disconnected ccw devices are removed, the device has to be set
offline, otherwise there will be side effects including a reference
count imbalance. This patch modifies ccw_device_offline to work for
devices in disconnecte/not operational state. ccw_device_offline is
called by cio for devices which are online during device removal.

c91ebe4961 [S390] cio: handle ssch() return codes correctly.
ssch() has two classes of return codes:
- condition codes (0-3) which need to be translated to Linux
  error codes
- Linux error codes (-EIO on exceptions) which should be passed
  to the caller (instead of erronously being handled like
  condition code 3)

3d6e48f433 [S390] CVE-2008-1514: prevent ptrace padding area read/write in 31-bit mode
When running a 31-bit ptrace, on either an s390 or s390x kernel,
reads and writes into a padding area in struct user_regs_struct32
will result in a kernel panic.

This is also known as CVE-2008-1514.

Test case available here:
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/user-area-padding.c?cvsroot=systemtap

Steps to reproduce:
1) wget the above
2) gcc -o user-area-padding-31bit user-area-padding.c -Wall -ggdb2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -m31
3) ./user-area-padding-31bit
<panic>

Test status
-----------
Without patch, both s390 and s390x kernels panic. With patch, the test case,
as well as the gdb testsuite, pass without incident, padding area reads
returning zero, writes ignored.

Nb: original version returned -EINVAL on write attempts, which broke the
gdb test and made the test case slightly unhappy, Jan Kratochvil suggested
the change to return 0 on write attempts.
