mask_rw_pte is currently checking if a pfn is a pagetable page if it
falls in the range pgt_buf_start - pgt_buf_end but that is incorrect
because pgt_buf_end is a moving target: pgt_buf_top is the real

x86-64, mm: Put early page table high
it causes the Linux kernel to crash under Xen:

...
The reason is that at some point init_memory_mapping is going to reach
the pagetable pages area and map those pages too (mapping them as normal
memory that falls in the range of addresses passed to init_memory_mapping
as argument). Some of those pages are already pagetable pages (they are
in the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end) therefore they are going to be
mapped RO and everything is fine.
Some of these pages are not pagetable pages yet (they fall in the range
pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top; for example the page at pgt_buf_end) so they
are going to be mapped RW. When these pages become pagetable pages and
are hooked into the pagetable, xen will find that the guest has already
a RW mapping of them somewhere and fail the operation.
The reason Xen requires pagetables to be RO is that the hypervisor needs
to verify that the pagetables are valid before using them. The validation
operations are called "pinning" (more details in arch/x86/xen/mmu.c).
In order to fix the issue we mark all the pages in the entire range
pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_top as RO, however when the pagetable allocation
is completed only the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end is reserved by
init_memory_mapping. Hence the kernel is going to crash as soon as one
of the pages in the range pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top is reused (b/c those
ranges are RO).
For this reason, this function is introduced which is called _after_
the init_memory_mapping has completed (in a perfect world we would
call this function from init_memory_mapping, but lets ignore that).
Because we are called _after_ init_memory_mapping the pgt_buf_[start,
end,top] have all changed to new values (b/c another init_memory_mapping
is called). Hence, the first time we enter this function, we save
away the pgt_buf_start value and update the pgt_buf_[end,top].
When we detect that the "old" pgt_buf_start through pgt_buf_end
PFNs have been reserved (so memblock_x86_reserve_range has been called),
we immediately set out to RW the "old" pgt_buf_end through pgt_buf_top.
And then we update those "old" pgt_buf_[end|top] with the new ones
so that we can redo this on the next pagetable.

This is the second fix of the following symptom:
UBIFS error (pid 34456): could not find an empty LEB
which sometimes happens after power cuts when we mount the file-system - UBIFS
refuses it with the above error message which comes from the
'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' function. I can reproduce this using the integck test
with the UBIFS power cut emulation enabled.
Analysis of the problem.
Currently UBIFS replay seeks the journal heads to the last _replayed_ bud.
But the buds are replayed out-of-order, so the replay basically seeks journal
heads to the "random" bud belonging to this head, and not to the _last_ one.
The result of this is that the GC head may be seeked to a full LEB with no free
space, or very little free space. And 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' tries to find a
fully or mostly dirty LEB to match the current GC head (because we need to
garbage-collect that dirty LEB at one go, because we do not have @c->gc_lnum).
So 'ubifs_find_dirty_leb()' fails and we fall back to finding an empty LEB and
also fail. As a result - recovery fails and mounting fails.
This patch teaches the replay to initialize the GC heads exactly to the latest
buds, i.e. the buds which have the largest sequence number in corresponding
log reference nodes.

Currently UBIFS has a small optimization - it frees write-buffers when it is
re-mounted from R/W mode to R/O mode. Of course, when it is mounted R/O, it
does not allocate write-buffers as well.
This optimization is nice but it leads to subtle problems and complications
in recovery, which I can reproduce using the integck test. The symptoms are
that after a power cut the file-system cannot be mounted if we first mount
it R/O, and then re-mount R/W - 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' prints:
UBIFS error (pid 34456): could not find an empty LEB
Analysis of the problem.
When mounting R/W, the reply process sets journal heads to buds [1], but
when mounting R/O - it does not do this, because the write-buffers are not
allocated. So 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' works completely differently for the
same file-system but for the following 2 cases:
1. mounting R/W after a power cut and recover
2. mounting R/O after a power cut, re-mounting R/W and run deferred recovery
In the former case, we have journal heads seeked to the a bud, in the latter
case, they are non-seeked (wbuf->lnum == -1). So in the latter case we do not
try to recover the GC LEB by garbage-collecting to the GC head, but we just
try to find an empty LEB, and there may be no empty LEBs, so we just fail.
On the other hand, in the former case (mount R/W), we are able to make a GC LEB
(@c->gc_lnum) by garbage-collecting.
Thus, let's remove this small nice optimization and always allocate
write-buffers. This should not make too big difference - we have only 3
of them, each of max. write unit size, which is usually 2KiB. So this is
about 6KiB of RAM for the typical case, and only when mounted R/O.
[1]: Note, currently the replay process is setting (seeking) the journal heads
to _some_ buds, not necessarily to the buds which had been the journal heads
before the power cut happened. This will be fixed separately.

The bug was that unix domain sockets use a pseduo packet for
connecting and accept uses that psudo packet to get the socket.
In the buggy seqpacket case we were allowing unconnected
sockets to call recvmsg and try to receive the pseudo packet.
That is always wrong and as of commit 7361c36c5 the pseudo
packet had become enough different from a normal packet
that the kernel started oopsing.
Do for seqpacket_recv what was done for seqpacket_send in 2.5
and only allow it on connected seqpacket sockets.

numa_cleanup_meminfo() trims each memblk between low (0) and
high (max_pfn) limits and discards empty ones. However, the
emptiness detection incorrectly used equality test. If the
start of a memblk is higher than max_pfn, it is empty but fails
the equality test and doesn't get discarded.
The condition triggers when max_pfn is lower than start of a
NUMA node and results in memory misconfiguration - leading to
WARN_ON()s and other funnies. The bug was discovered in devel
branch where 32bit too uses this code path for NUMA init. If a
node is above the addressing limit, max_pfn ends up lower than
the node triggering this problem.
The failure hasn't been observed on x86-64 but is still possible
with broken hardware e820/NUMA info. As the fix is very low
risk, it would be better to apply it even for 64bit.
Fix it by using >= instead of ==.

Older AMD K8 processors (Revisions A-E) are affected by erratum
400 (APIC timer interrupts don't occur in C states greater than
C1). This, for example, means that X86_FEATURE_ARAT flag should
not be set for these parts.
This addresses regression introduced by commit
b87cf80af3 ("x86, AMD: Set ARAT
feature on AMD processors") where the system may become
unresponsive until external interrupt (such as keyboard input)
occurs. This results, for example, in time not being reported
correctly, lack of progress on the system and other lockups.

It occured during some stress testing, in which the reporter was repeatedly
removing and modprobing the bnx2 module while doing various other random
operations on the bnx2 registered net device. Noting that this error occured on
a serdes based device, we noted that there were a few ethtool operations (most
notably self_test and set_phys_id) that have execution paths that lead into
bnx2_setup_serdes_phy. This function is notable because it executes a mod_timer
call, which starts the bp->timer running. Currently bnx2 is setup to assume
that this timer only nees to be stopped when bnx2_close or bnx2_suspend is
called. Since the above ethtool operations are not gated on the net device
having been opened however, that assumption is incorrect, and can lead to the
timer still running after the module has been removed, leading to the oops above
(as well as other simmilar oopses).
Fix the problem by ensuring that the timer is stopped when pci_device_unregister
is called.

Need to use broadcast sta_id for management frames, otherwise we broke
BA session in the firmware and get messages like that:
"Received BA when not expected"
or (on older kernels):
"BA scd_flow 0 does not match txq_id 10"
This fix regression introduced in 2.6.35 during station management

However, there are still 11n performance problems on 4965 and 5xxx
devices that need to be investigated.

If a rescuer and stop_machine() bringing down a CPU race with each
other, they may deadlock on non-preemptive kernel. The CPU won't
accept a new task, so the rescuer can't migrate to the target CPU,
while stop_machine() can't proceed because the rescuer is holding one
of the CPU retrying migration. GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is never cleared
and worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() retries indefinitely.
This problem can be reproduced semi reliably while the system is
entering suspend.

A lot of kudos to Thilo-Alexander for reporting this tricky issue and
painstaking testing.
stable: This affects all kernels with cmwq, so all kernels since and
including v2.6.36 need this fix.
