Commit 5dc49c75a26b ("decompressors: make the default XZ_DEC_* config
match the selected architecture") added
default y if POWERPC
to lib/xz/Kconfig. But there is no Kconfig symbol POWERPC. The most
general Kconfig symbol for the powerpc architecture is PPC. So let's
use that.

If find_vma() fails, sys_remap_file_pages() will dereference `vma', which
contains NULL. Fix it by checking the pointer.
(We could alternatively check for err==0, but this seems more direct)
(The vm_flags change is to squish a bogus used-uninitialised warning
without adding extra code).

idr_get_new*() and friends are about to be deprecated. Convert to the
new idr_alloc() interface.
There are some peculiarities and possible bugs in the converted
functions. This patch preserves those.
* drv_insert_node_res_element() returns -ENOMEM on alloc failure,
-EFAULT if id space is exhausted. -EFAULT is at best misleading.
* drv_proc_insert_strm_res_element() is even weirder. It returns
-EFAULT if kzalloc() fails, -ENOMEM if idr preloading fails and
-EPERM if id space is exhausted. What's going on here?
* drv_proc_insert_strm_res_element() doesn't free *pstrm_res after
failure.
Only compile tested.

When the new signal handlers are set up, the location of sa_restorer is
not cleared, leaking a parent process's address space location to
children. This allows for a potential bypass of the parent's ASLR by
examining the sa_restorer value returned when calling sigaction().
Based on what should be considered "secret" about addresses, it only
matters across the exec not the fork (since the VMAs haven't changed
until the exec). But since exec sets SIG_DFL and keeps sa_restorer,
this is where it should be fixed.
Given the few uses of sa_restorer, a "set" function was not written
since this would be the only use. Instead, we use
__ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER, as already done in other places.
Example of the leak before applying this patch:
$ cat /proc/$$/maps

Don't allowing sharing the root directory with processes in a
different user namespace. There doesn't seem to be any point, and to
allow it would require the overhead of putting a user namespace
reference in fs_struct (for permission checks) and incrementing that
reference count on practically every call to fork.
So just perform the inexpensive test of forbidding sharing fs_struct
acrosss processes in different user namespaces. We already disallow
other forms of threading when unsharing a user namespace so this
should be no real burden in practice.
This updates setns, clone, and unshare to disallow multiple user
namespaces sharing an fs_struct.

The commit 2e124b4a390ca85325fae75764bef92f0547fa25 removed the checks
that prevented qt2_process_read_urb() from trying to put chars into
ttys that weren't actually opened. This resulted in 'tty is NULL'
warnings from flush_to_ldisc() when the device was used.
The devices use just one read urb for all ports. As a result
qt2_process_read_urb() may be called with the current port set to a
port number that has not been opened. Add a check if the port is open
before calling tty_flip_buffer_push().

Commit 8e3dffc6 introduced a regression where deleting inode with
large extended attributes leads to triggering
BUG_ON(inode->i_state != (I_FREEING | I_CLEAR))
in fs/inode.c:evict(). That happens because freeing of xattr block
dirtied the inode and it happened after clear_inode() has been called.
Fix the issue by moving removal of xattr block into ext2_evict_inode()
before clear_inode() call close to a place where data blocks are
truncated. That is also more logical place and removes surprising
requirement that ext2_free_blocks() mustn't dirty the inode.

I had assumed that the only use of module aliases for filesystems
prior to "fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules."
was in request_module. It turns out I was wrong. At least mkinitcpio
in Arch linux uses these aliases.
So readd the preexising aliases, to keep from breaking userspace.
Userspace eventually will have to follow and use the same aliases the
kernel does. So at some point we may be delete these aliases without
problems. However that day is not today.

Good job. I was too lazy to bisect for bad commit;)
Reading the code I found problematic kthread_should_stop call from netlink
connector which causes the oops. After applying a patch, I've been testing
owfs+w1 setup for nearly two days and it seems to work very reliable (no
hangs, no memleaks etc).
More detailed description and possible fix is given below:
Function w1_search can be called from either kthread or netlink callback.
While the former works fine, the latter causes oops due to kthread_should_stop
invocation.
This patch adds a check if w1_search is serving netlink command, skipping
kthread_should_stop invocation if so.

Fix regression introduced by commit d2323cf773 ("onewire: w1-gpio: add
ext_pullup_enable pin in platform data") which added a gpio entry to the
platform data, but did not add the required initialisers to the board
files using it. Consequently, the driver would request gpio 0 at probe,
which could break other uses of the corresponding pin.
On AT91 requesting gpio 0 changes the pin muxing for PIOA0, which, for
instance, breaks SPI0 on at91sam9g20.

security keys
Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to
compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an
explicit "access_ok()" check before calling
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when
we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to
fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev().
This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements
should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact,
there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel,
and they both seem to get it wrong:
Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb()
also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through
aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to
be missing. Same situation for
security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov().
I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it,
and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat
counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where
copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so
the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat.
While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values.
And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error
handling.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Arnd Bergmann:
"These bug fixes are for the largest part for mvebu/kirkwood, which saw
a few regressions after the clock infrastructure was enabled, and for
OMAP, which showed a few more preexisting bugs with the new

Other small fixes are for imx, mxs, tegra, spear and socfpga"

The Kconfig symbol SERIAL_S3C2412 got removed in commit
da121506eb03ee5daea55404709110b798bd61d9 ("serial: samsung: merge
probe() function from all SoC specific extensions"). But it also added a
last reference to that symbol. The commit and the tree make clear that
CPU_S3C2412 should have been used instead.

With commit 835d844d1 (8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe), the
8250 driver was renamed to 8250_core. This means any existing usage of
the 8259.<xxxx> module parameters or as a kernel command line switch is
now broken, as the 8250_core driver doesn't parse options belonging to
something called "8250".
To solve this, we redefine the module options in a dummy function using
a redefined MODULE_PARAM_PREFX when built into the kernel. In the case
where we're building as a module, we provide an alias to the old 8250
name. The dummy function prevents compiler errors due to global variable
redefinitions that happen as part of the module_param_ macro expansions.

This could have been either ARCH_S5P64X0 or CPU_S5P6450. Looking at
commit 2555e663b367b8d555e76023f4de3f6338c28d6c ("ARM: S5P64X0: Add UART
serial support for S5P6450") - which added this typo - makes clear this
should be CPU_S5P6450.

The InsydeH2O BIOS (version dated 09/12/2011) has the following in
its pnp resouces for its serial ports:
$ cat /sys/bus/pnp/devices/00:0b/resources
state = active
io disabled
irq disabled
We do not check if the resources are disabled, and create a bogus
ttyS* device. Since commit 835d844d1a28e (8250_pnp: do pnp probe
before legacy probe) we get a bogus ttyS0, which prevents the legacy
probe from detecting it.
Note, the BIOS can also be upgraded, fixing this problem, but for people
who can't do that, this fix is needed.

92a19f9cec9a80ad93c06e115822deb729e2c6ad introduced a local variable
with the same name as the argument to bcm_uart_do_rx, breaking
compilation. Fix this by renaming the new variable and its uses where
expected.
