Steven Rostedt 9386c6ab7a ktest: Use oldnoconfig instead of yes command
Running the command "yes ''" through the make oldconfig may enable
things we do not want enabled. If something is default enabled, the
yes command with '' as an argument will enable it.

Use oldnoconfig, which runs everything as if 'no' was used.

Steven Rostedt a57419b366 ktest: New TEST_START instead of using [], and use real SHA1s
Change the config to use TEST_START where the options after a
TEST_START automatically get the [] as it is read and they do
not need to exist in the config file;

TEST_START
MIN_CONFIG = myconfig

is the same as

MIN_CONFIG[1] = myconfig

The benefit is that you no longer need to keep track of test numbers
with tests.

Also process the commit ids that are passed to the options
to get the actually SHA1 so it is no longer relative to the branch.
Ie, saying HEAD will get the current SHA1 and then that will
be used, and will work even if another branch is checked out.

Pekka Enberg 63bfd7384b perf_events: Fix perf_counter_mmap() hook in mprotect()
As pointed out by Linus, commit dab5855 ("perf_counter: Add mmap event hooks to
mprotect()") is fundamentally wrong as mprotect_fixup() can free 'vma' due to
merging. Fix the problem by moving perf_event_mmap() hook to
mprotect_fixup().

Note: there's another successful return path from mprotect_fixup() if old
flags equal to new flags. We don't, however, need to call
perf_event_mmap() there because 'perf' already knows the VMA is
executable.

Jeff Layton 618763958b cifs: make cifs_ioctl handle NULL filp->private_data correctly
Commit 13cfb7334e made cifs_ioctl use the tlink attached to the
cifsFileInfo for a filp. This ignores the case of an open directory
however, which in CIFS can have a NULL private_data until a readdir
is done on it.

This patch re-adds the NULL pointer checks that were removed in commit
50ae28f01 and moves the setting of tcon and "caps" variables lower.

Long term, a better fix would be to establish a f_op->open routine for
directories that populates that field at open time, but that requires
some other changes to how readdir calls are handled.

Theodore Ts'o b56ff9d397 ext4: Don't call sb_issue_discard() in ext4_free_blocks()
Commit 5c521830cf (ext4: Support discard requests when running in
no-journal mode) attempts to add sb_issue_discard() for data blocks
(in data=writeback mode) and in no-journal mode.  Unfortunately, this
no longer works, because in commit dd3932eddf (block: remove
BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT), sb_issue_discard() only presents a synchronous
interface, and there are times when we call ext4_free_blocks() when we
are are holding a spinlock, or are otherwise in an atomic context.

For now, I've removed the call to sb_issue_discard() to prevent a
deadlock or (if spinlock debugging is enabled) failures like this:

Theodore Ts'o f7ad6d2e92 ext4: handle writeback of inodes which are being freed
The following BUG can occur when an inode which is getting freed when
it still has dirty pages outstanding, and it gets deleted (in this
because it was the target of a rename).  In ordered mode, we need to
make sure the data pages are written just in case we crash before the
rename (or unlink) is committed.  If the inode is being freed then
when we try to igrab the inode, we end up tripping the BUG_ON at
fs/ext4/page-io.c:146.

To solve this problem, we need to keep track of the number of io
callbacks which are pending, and avoid destroying the inode until they
have all been completed.  That way we don't have to bump the inode
count to keep the inode from being destroyed; an approach which
doesn't work because the count could have already been dropped down to
zero before the inode writeback has started (at which point we're not
allowed to bump the count back up to 1, since it's already started
getting freed).

Thanks to Dave Chinner for suggesting this approach, which is also
used by XFS.

Guennadi Liakhovetski d0013c9e3b sh: make some needlessly global sh7724 clocks static
These clocks are currently only used inside one .c file and are not
declared in any headers, therefore having them global is useless.

Guennadi Liakhovetski 6af26c6c99 sh: add clk_round_parent() to optimize parent clock rate
Sometimes it is possible and reasonable to adjust the parent clock rate to
improve precision of the child clock, e.g., if the child clock has no siblings.
clk_round_parent() is a new addition to the SH clock-framework API, that
implements such an optimization for child clocks with divisors, taking all
integer values in a range.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 557a3dac2c Staging: ath6kl: remove empty files that mess with 'distclean'
These two .h files would get removed from the tree when doing
	make distclean

It turns out they are not needed at all, so just delete them which fixes
people's git trees when doing development.

Vivek Goyal d017bf6b4f floppy: fix another use-after-free
While scanning the floopy code due to c093ee4f07 ("floppy: fix
use-after-free in module load failure path"), I found one more instance
of trying to access disk->queue pointer after doing put_disk() on
gendisk.  For some reason , floppy moule still loads/unloads fine.  The
object is probably still around with right pointer values.

 o There seems to be one more instance of trying to cleanup the request
   queue after we have called put_disk() on associated gendisk.

 o This fix is more out of code inspection.  Even without this fix for
   some reason I am able to load/unload floppy module without any
   issues.

 o Floppy module loads/unloads fine after the fix.

The autogenerated files (consolemap_deftbl.c and defkeymap.c) need to
be ignored by git, so move the .gitignore file that was doing it to the
properly location now that the files have moved as well.

Linus Torvalds 151f52f09c ipw2x00: remove the right /proc/net entry
Commit 27ae60f8f7 ("ipw2x00: replace "ieee80211" with "libipw" where
appropriate") changed DRV_NAME to be "libipw", but didn't properly fix
up the places where it was used to specify the name for the /proc/net/
directory.

For backwards compatibility reasons, that directory name remained
"ieee80211", but due to the DRV_NAME change, the error case printouts
and the cleanup functions now used "libipw" instead.  Which made it all
fail badly.

For example, on module unload as reported by Randy:

  WARNING: at fs/proc/generic.c:816 remove_proc_entry+0x156/0x35e()
  name 'libipw'

because it's trying to unregister a /proc directory that obviously
doesn't even exist.

Clean it all up to use DRV_PROCNAME for the actual /proc directory name.

Commit 488211844e ("floppy: switch to one queue per drive instead of
sharing a queue") introduced a use-after-free.  We do "put_disk()" on
the disk device _before_ we then clean up the queue associated with that
disk.

Move the put_disk() down to avoid dereferencing a free'd data structure.

Oleg Nesterov e0a7021710 posix-cpu-timers: workaround to suppress the problems with mt exec
posix-cpu-timers.c correctly assumes that the dying process does
posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() and removes all !CPUCLOCK_PERTHREAD
timers from signal->cpu_timers list.

But, it also assumes that timer->it.cpu.task is always the group
leader, and thus the dead ->task means the dead thread group.

This is obviously not true after de_thread() changes the leader.
After that almost every posix_cpu_timer_ method has problems.

It is not simple to fix this bug correctly. First of all, I think
that timer->it.cpu should use struct pid instead of task_struct.
Also, the locking should be reworked completely. In particular,
tasklist_lock should not be used at all. This all needs a lot of
nontrivial and hard-to-test changes.

Change __exit_signal() to do posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() when
the old leader dies during exec. This is not the fix, just the
temporary hack to hide the problem for 2.6.37 and stable. IOW,
this is obviously wrong but this is what we currently have anyway:
cpu timers do not work after mt exec.

In theory this change adds another race. The exiting leader can
detach the timers which were attached to the new leader. However,
the window between de_thread() and release_task() is small, we
can pretend that sys_timer_create() was called before de_thread().
