4cd481f68d KVM: Fix overlapping check for memory slots
When checking for overlapping slots on registration of a new one, kvm
currently also considers zero-length (ie. deleted) slots and rejects
requests incorrectly. This finally denies user space from joining slots.
Fix the check by skipping deleted slots and advertise this via a
KVM_CAP_JOIN_MEMORY_REGIONS_WORKS.

d24d2c1cc4 KVM: ia64: fix locking order entering guest
Reorder locking as down_read() may return with local interrupts enabled,
which means we could go into vti_vcpu_run() with interrupts enabled.

This caused random crashes on the Altix as the timer interrupt tried
to read a memory mapped clock source, for which the TLB had not yet been
reinstated in the exit, before ipsr was retored.

99894a799f KVM: MMU: Fix off-by-one calculating large page count
The large page initialization code concludes there are two large pages spanned
by a slot covering 1 (small) page starting at gfn 1.  This is incorrect, and
also results in incorrect write_count initialization in some cases (base = 1,
npages = 513 for example).

956d039a25 sparc: Fix bus type probing for ESP and LE devices.
If there is a dummy "espdma" or "ledma" parent device above ESP scsi
or LE ethernet device nodes, we have to match the bus as SBUS.

Otherwise the address and size cell counts are wrong and we don't
calculate the final physical device resource values correctly at all.

Commit 5280267c1d ("sparc: Fix handling
of LANCE and ESP parent nodes in of_device.c") was meant to fix this
problem, but that only influences the inner loop of
build_device_resources().  We need this logic to also kick in at the
beginning of build_device_resources() as well, when we make the first
attempt to determine the device's immediate parent bus type for 'reg'
property element extraction.

Based almost entirely upon a patch by Friedrich Oslage.

13a791b4e6 eCryptfs: Fix data corruption when using ecryptfs_passthrough
ecryptfs_passthrough is a mount option that allows eCryptfs to allow
data to be written to non-eCryptfs files in the lower filesystem.  The
passthrough option was causing data corruption due to it not always
being treated as a non-eCryptfs file.

The first 8 bytes of an eCryptfs file contains the decrypted file size.
This value was being written to the non-eCryptfs files, too.  Also,
extra 0x00 characters were being written to make the file size a
multiple of PAGE_CACHE_SIZE.

3f9738f73a 8139too: fix HW initial flow
While ifconfig eth0 up kernel calls open() of 8139 driver(8139too.c).
In rtl8139_hw_start() of rtl8139_open(), 8139 driver enable RX before
setting up the DMA buffer address. In this interval where RX was
enabled and DMA buffer address is not yet set up, any incoming
broadcast packet would be send to a strange physical address:
0x003e8800 which is the default value of DMA buffer address.
Unfortunately, this address is used by Linux kernel. So kernel panics.
This patch fix it by setting up DMA buffer address before RX enabled
and everything is fine even under broadcast packets attack.

3fa6b5adbe af_iucv: Fix race when queuing incoming iucv messages
AF_IUCV runs into a race when queuing incoming iucv messages
and receiving the resulting backlog.

If the Linux system is under pressure (high load or steal time),
the message queue grows up, but messages are not received and queued
onto the backlog queue. In that case, applications do not
receive any data with recvmsg() even if AF_IUCV puts incoming
messages onto the message queue.

The race can be avoided if the message queue spinlock in the
message_pending callback is spreaded across the entire callback
function.

a9e9dc24bb bio: use bio_kmalloc() in copy/map functions
Impact: remove possible deadlock condition

There is no reason to use mempool backed allocation for map functions.
Also, because kern mapping is used inside LLDs (e.g. for EH), using
mempool backed allocation can lead to deadlock under extreme
conditions (mempool already consumed by the time a request reached EH
and requests are blocked on EH).

Switch copy/map functions to bio_kmalloc().

451a9ebf65 bio: fix bio_kmalloc()
Impact: fix bio_kmalloc() and its destruction path

bio_kmalloc() was broken in two ways.

* bvec_alloc_bs() first allocates bvec using kmalloc() and then
  ignores it and allocates again like non-kmalloc bvecs.

* bio_kmalloc_destructor() didn't check for and free bio integrity
  data.

This patch fixes the above problems.  kmalloc patch is separated out
from bio_alloc_bioset() and allocates the requested number of bvecs as
inline bvecs.

* bio_alloc_bioset() no longer takes NULL @bs.  None other than
  bio_kmalloc() used it and outside users can't know how it was
  allocated anyway.

* Define and use BIO_POOL_NONE so that pool index check in
  bvec_free_bs() triggers if inline or kmalloc allocated bvec gets
  there.

* Relocate destructors on top of each allocation function so that how
  they're used is more clear.

Jens Axboe suggested allocating bvecs inline.

cd0aca2d55 block: fix queue bounce limit setting
Impact: don't set GFP_DMA in q->bounce_gfp unnecessarily

All DMA address limits are expressed in terms of the last addressable
unit (byte or page) instead of one plus that.  However, when
determining bounce_gfp for 64bit machines in blk_queue_bounce_limit(),
it compares the specified limit against 0x100000000UL to determine
whether it's below 4G ending up falsely setting GFP_DMA in
q->bounce_gfp.

As DMA zone is very small on x86_64, this makes larger SG_IO transfers
very eager to trigger OOM killer.  Fix it.  While at it, rename the
parameter to @dma_mask for clarity and convert comment to proper
winged style.

592578a1dd m68knommu: Fixed GPIO pin initialization for CONFIG_M5271 FEC.
This processor only have one FEC and its MDIO pins are
located at a different offset than the code used for
the current CONFIG_M527x.

Tesed on M5271EVB eval platform.
Without this patch the FEC driver will report no PHY attached
if the bootloader does not pre-initialize the PAR_FECI2C GPIO register.

d4d5291c8c driver synchronization: make scsi_wait_scan more advanced
There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage
device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the
scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this
module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers
were loaded before the module load are present.

Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async
stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only
waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take
into account at all that probing might not have begun yet.
(Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him)

This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which
had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for
the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did
it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml):
The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it
will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

5028eaa97d PERCPU: Collect the DECLARE/DEFINE declarations together
Collect the DECLARE/DEFINE declarations together in linux/percpu-defs.h so
that they're in one place, and give them descriptive comments, particularly
the SHARED_ALIGNED variant.

It would be nice to collect these in linux/percpu.h, but that's not possible
without sorting out the severe #include recursion between the x86 arch headers
and the general headers (and possibly other arches too).

9b8de7479d FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU()
In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU().  This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.

On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section.  The linker throws
up the following errors:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o

To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU().  However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.
