Paul Mundt ccedb20c68 sh: Simplify phys_addr_mask()/PTE_PHYS_MASK for 29/32-bit.
Given that __in_29bit_mode() is a constant for the non-PMB case, we can
simply use the PMB-facing version of phys_addr_mask() and drop the other
variants.

Paul Mundt edc9a958fd sh: nommu: Support building without an uncached mapping.
Now that nommu selects 32BIT we run in to the situation where SH-2A
supports an uncached identity mapping by way of the BSC, while the SH-2
does not. This provides stubs for the PC manglers and tidies up some of
the system*.h mess in the process.

Paul Mundt e2fcf74f3d sh: nommu: use 32-bit phys mode.
The nommu code has regressed somewhat in that 29BIT gets set for the
SH-2/2A configs regardless of the fact that they are really 32BIT sans
MMU or PMB. This does a bit of tidying to get nommu properly selecting
32BIT as it was before.

Paul Mundt 2f6ba5792c mmc: sh_mmcif: Convert extern inline to static inline.
Presently the extern inline case results in a compiler warning on ARM due
to the memory barrier definition used in the I/O routines. These

Herbert Xu c00b2c9e79 cls_cgroup: Fix crash on module unload
Somewhere along the lines net_cls_subsys_id became a macro when
cls_cgroup is built as a module.  Not only did it make cls_cgroup
completely useless, it also causes it to crash on module unload.

This patch fixes this by removing that macro.

Thanks to Eric Dumazet for diagnosing this problem.

Xiaotian Feng 41bb78b4b9 net dst: fix percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwritten
There're some percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwritten warnings
in recent kernel, which is resulted by fc66f95c.

commit fc66f95c switches to use percpu_counter, in ip6_route_net_init, kernel
init the percpu_counter for dst entries, but, the percpu_counter is never destroyed
in ip6_route_net_exit. So if the related data is freed by kernel, the freed percpu_counter
is still on the list, then if we insert/remove other percpu_counter, list corruption
resulted. Also, if the insert/remove option modifies the ->prev,->next pointer of
the freed value, the poison overwritten is resulted then.

With the following patch, the percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwritten
warnings disappeared.

Jeff Layton b647c35f77 cifs: convert tlink_tree to a rbtree
Radix trees are ideal when you want to track a bunch of pointers and
can't embed a tracking structure within the target of those pointers.
The tradeoff is an increase in memory, particularly if the tree is
sparse.

In CIFS, we use the tlink_tree to track tcon_link structs. A tcon_link
can never be in more than one tlink_tree, so there's no impediment to
using a rb_tree here instead of a radix tree.

Convert the new multiuser mount code to use a rb_tree instead. This
should reduce the memory required to manage the tlink_tree.

Instead of keeping a tag on the master tlink in the tree, just keep a

using the radix tree to look up a tagged entry.

The preempt count logic tries to take the BKL into account, which breaks
when CONFIG_BKL is not set.

Use the same preempt_count offset that we use without CONFIG_PREEMPT
when CONFIG_BKL is disabled.

Mandar Joshi ca8dc34eaf ALSA: usb-audio - Support for Power/Status LED on Creative USB X-Fi S51
This patch adds support for Power/Status LED on Creative USB X-Fi S51.
There is just one LED on the device. The LED can either be On or it
can be set to Blink. There doesn't seem to be a way to switch it off.
The control message to change LED status is similar to that of
audigy2nx except that the index is to be set to 0 and value is 1 for
Blink and 0 for On.

The 'Power LED' control in alsamixer when muted will cause the LED to
Blink continuously. When unmuted  the LED will stay On. The Creative
driver under Windows sets the LED to blink whenever audio is muted.
This LED can be treated as the CMSS LED but I figured since there is
just one LED, it should be treated as the Power LED. Is that alright?

I've also changed the comment "Usb X-Fi" to "Usb X-Fi S51" as there
are other external X-Fi devices from Creative like Usb X-Fi Go and
Xmod. The volume knob and LED support patch doesn't apply to them.

Jesper Juhl fd0977d0f4 ALSA: asihpi - Unsafe memory management when allocating control cache
I noticed that sound/pci/asihpi/hpicmn.c::hpi_alloc_control_cache() does
not check the return value from kmalloc(), which may fail.
If kmalloc() fails we'll dereference a null pointer and things will go bad
fast.
There are two memory allocations in that function and there's also the
problem that the first may succeed and the second may fail and nothing is
done about that either which will also go wrong down the line.

Jiri Slaby 50ae28f014 FS: cifs, remove unneeded NULL tests
Stanse found that pSMBFile in cifs_ioctl and file->f_path.dentry in
cifs_user_write are dereferenced prior their test to NULL.

The alternative is not to dereference them before the tests. The patch is
to point out the problem, you have to decide.

While at it we cache the inode in cifs_user_write to a local variable
and use all over the function.
