for some reason, this structure gets compiled as 36 bytes in some files
(the ones that alloacte it) but 40 bytes in others (the ones that use it).
The cause is an off_t type that gets a different size in different
compilation units for some yet-to-be-explained reason.
But the effect is disasterous; the size/offset members of the struct
are at different offsets, and result in mostly complete garbage.
The parser in perf is so robust that this all gets hidden, and after
skipping an certain amount of samples, it recovers.... so this bug
is not normally noticed.
.... except when you want every sample to be exact.
Fix this by just using an explicitly sized type.

Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by
PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID
because each inherited counter gets its own id.
His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that
is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited
counters have a unique identifier so that events like
PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which
counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the
sample streams.
This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more
common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less
useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate
value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow,
whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed,
which might only take effect on the next cycle).
This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that
_should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the
most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a
PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full
reconstruction is important.
[Does change the ABI a little, but I see no other way out]

There's some odd bug in gcc-4.2 where it miscompiles a simple loop whent
he loop counter is of type 'unsigned char' and it should count to 128.
The compiler will incorrectly decide that a trivial loop like this:
unsigned char i, ...
for (i = 0; i < 128; i++) {
..
is endless, and will compile it to a single instruction that just
branches to itself.
This was triggered by the addition of '-fno-strict-overflow', and we
could play games with compiler versions and go back to '-fwrapv'
instead, but the trivial way to avoid it is to just make the loop
induction variable be an 'int' instead.

We just had a case in which a buggy server occasionally returns the wrong
attributes during an OPEN call. While the client does catch this sort of
condition in nfs4_open_done(), and causes the nfs4_atomic_open() to return
-EISDIR, the logic in nfs_atomic_lookup() is broken, since it causes a
fallback to an ordinary lookup instead of just returning the error.
When the buggy server then returns a regular file for the fallback lookup,
the VFS allows the open, and bad things start to happen, since the open
file doesn't have any associated NFSv4 state.
The fix is firstly to return the EISDIR/ENOTDIR errors immediately, and
secondly to ensure that we are always careful when dereferencing the
nfs_open_context state pointer.

Commit 008f55d0e0 (nfs41: recover lease in

a bug in the case of NFSv4.0, which doesn't require us to send a
setclientid until we want to grab file state.
In any case, this is completely the wrong place to be doing state
management. Moving that code into nfs4_init_session...

The oops http://www.kerneloops.org/raw.php?rawid=537858&msgid= appears to
be due to the nfs4_lock_state->ls_state field being uninitialised. This
happens if the call to nfs4_free_lock_state() is triggered at the end of
nfs4_get_lock_state().
The fix is to move the initialisation of ls_state into the allocator.

A pointer to mac_sonic_probe is passed to the core via

unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.
Various other functions that are called by mac_sonic_probe need to move

platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
