Having ->procname but not ->proc_handler is valid when PROC_SYSCTL=n,
people use such combination to reduce ifdefs with non-standard handlers.

The gpio_twl4030_probe() function calls gpio_twl4030_remove(), and the
former has __devinit, so the latter cannot use __devexit. Otherwise we
hit the section mismatch warning:
WARNING: drivers/gpio/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x71a): Section mismatch
in reference from the function _gpio_twl4030_probe() to the function
.devexit.text:_gpio_twl4030_remove()
The function __devinit _gpio_twl4030_probe() references a function
__devexit _gpio_twl4030_remove().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function uses
functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __devexit annotation of
_gpio_twl4030_remove() so it may be used outside an exit section.

The IBM Saturn serial card has only one port. Without that fixup,
the kernel thinks it has two, which confuses userland setup and
admin tools as well.

Isolators putting a page back to the LRU do not hold the page lock, and if
the page is mlocked, another thread might munlock it concurrently.
Expecting this, the putback code re-checks the evictability of a page when
it just moved it to the unevictable list in order to correct its decision.
The problem, however, is that ordering is not garuanteed between setting
PG_lru when moving the page to the list and checking PG_mlocked
afterwards:
#0: #1
spin_lock()
if (TestClearPageMlocked())
if (PageLRU())
move to evictable list
SetPageLRU()
spin_unlock()
if (!PageMlocked())
move to evictable list
The PageMlocked() check may get reordered before SetPageLRU() in #0,
resulting in #0 not moving the still mlocked page, and in #1 failing to
isolate and move the page as well. The page is now stranded on the
unevictable list.
The race condition is very unlikely. The consequence currently is one
page falling off the reclaim grid and eventually getting freed with
PG_unevictable set, which triggers a warning in the page allocator.
TestClearPageMlocked() in #1 already provides full memory barrier
semantics.
This patch adds an explicit full barrier to force ordering between
SetPageLRU() and PageMlocked() so that either one of the competitors
rescues the page.

A particular fsfuzzer run caused an hfs file system to crash on mount.
This is due to a corrupted MDB extent record causing a miscalculation of
HFS_I(inode)->first_blocks for the extent tree. If the extent records are
zereod out, it won't trigger the first_blocks special case. Instead it
falls through to the extent code which we're still in the middle of
initializing.
This patch catches the 0 size extent records, reports the corruption, and
fails the mount.

It is possible to have !Anon but SwapBacked pages, and some apps could
create huge number of such pages with MAP_SHARED|MAP_ANONYMOUS. These
pages go into the ANON lru list, and hence shall not be protected: we only
care mapped executable files. Failing to do so may trigger OOM.

mm: oom analysis: add buffer cache information to show_free_areas()
show_free_areas() is called during page allocation failures, and page
allocation failures can occur in any calling context.
But nr_blockdev_pages() takes VFS locks which should not be taken from
hard IRQ context (at least). The result is lockdep warnings (and
deadlockability) during page allocation failures.

As found in <http://bugs.debian.org/550010>, hfsplus is using type u32
rather than sector_t for some sector number calculations.
In particular, hfsplus_get_block() does:
u32 ablock, dblock, mask;
...
map_bh(bh_result, sb, (dblock << HFSPLUS_SB(sb).fs_shift) + HFSPLUS_SB(sb).blockoffset + (iblock & mask));
I am not confident that I can find and fix all cases where a sector number
may be truncated. For now, avoid data loss by refusing to mount HFS+
volumes with more than 2^32 sectors (2TB).

strstrip() can return a modified value of its input argument, when
removing elading whitesapce. So it is surely bug for this function's
return value to be ignored. The caller is probably going to use the
incorrect original pointer.
So mark it __must_check to prevent this frm happening (as it has before).

Since commit 02b51df1b07b4e9ca823c89284e704cadb323cd1 (proc connector: add
event for process becoming session leader) we have the following warning:
Badness at kernel/softirq.c:143

The warning is
---> WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq() || irqs_disabled());
The network code must not be called with disabled interrupts but
sys_setsid holds the tasklist_lock with spinlock_irq while calling the
connector.
After a discussion we agreed that we can move proc_sid_connector from
__set_special_pids to sys_setsid.
We also agreed that it is sufficient to change the check from
task_session(curr) != pid into err > 0, since if we don't change the
session, this means we were already the leader and return -EPERM.
One last thing:
There is also daemonize(), and some people might want to get a
notification in that case. Since daemonize() is only needed if a user
space does kernel_thread this does not look important (and there seems
to be no consensus if this connector should be called in daemonize). If
we really want this, we can add proc_sid_connector to daemonize() in an
additional patch (Scott?)

Given such a long name, the kB count in /proc/meminfo's HardwareCorrupted
line is being shown too far right (it does align with x86_64's VmallocChunk
above, but I hope nobody will ever have that much corrupted!). Align it.

Memory failure on a KSM page currently oopses on its NULL anon_vma in
page_lock_anon_vma(): that may not be much worse than the consequence of
ignoring it, but it is better to be consistent with how ZERO_PAGE and
hugetlb pages and other awkward cases are treated. Just skip it.
We could fix it for 2.6.32 at the KSM end, by putting a dummy anon_vma
pointer in there; but that would get harder next time, when KSM will put a
pointer to something else there (and I'm not currently planning to do any
work to open that up to memory_failure). So I would prefer this simple
PageKsm test, until the other exceptions are handled.

When CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is disabled, cpufreq_get() needs a stub. Used by kvm
(although it looks like a bit of the kvm code could be omitted when
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is disabled).
arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `kvm_arch_init':
(.text+0x10de7): undefined reference to `cpufreq_get'
(Needed in linux-next's KVM tree, but it's correct in 2.6.32).

This reverts "Add serial number support for virtio_blk, V4a".
Turns out that virtio_pci, lguest and s/390 all have an 8 bit limit
on virtio config space, so noone could ever use this.
This is coming back later in a cleaner form.

Rusty,
commit 3ca4f5ca73057a617f9444a91022d7127041970a
virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.
In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

It seems like the addition of QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT caueses major performance
regressions for Fedora users:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=509383
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=505695
while I can't reproduce those extreme regressions myself I think the flag
is wrong.
Rationale:
QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT expands to QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT which casus the queue
unplugged immediately. This is not a good behaviour for at least
qemu and kvm where we do have significant overhead for every
I/O operations. Even with all the latested speeups (native AIO,
MSI support, zero copy) we can only get native speed for up to 128kb
I/O requests we already are down to 66% of native performance for 4kb
requests even on my laptop running the Intel X25-M SSD for which the
QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT was designed.
If we ever get virtio-blk overhead low enough that this flag makes
sense it should only be set based on a feature flag set by the host.

Increase TEST_SUSPEND_SECONDS to 10 so the warning in
suspend_test_finish() doesn't annoy the users of slower systems so much.
Also, make the warning print the suspend-resume cycle time, so that we
know why the warning actually triggered.
Patch prepared during the hacking session at the Kernel Summit in Tokyo.
