This reverts commit 722385f75efd82d9f480f0765a1e97a4d83cac0d (or commit
3f27100872b21e4cc70d07b96eeb3611b30bce63, it's your choice ;), since the
same patch to Documentation/HOWTO got added twice because it just kept
applying cleanly.

With irqpoll enabled, trying to test the IRQF_IRQPOLL flag in the
actions would cause a NULL pointer dereference if no action was
installed (for example, the driver might have been unloaded with
interrupts still pending).
So be a bit more careful about testing the flag by making sure to test
for that case.
(The actual _change_ is trivial, the patch is more than a one-liner
because I rewrote the testing to also be much more readable.

We only need to dirty the pages that were actually read in.
Also convert nfs_direct_dirty_pages() to call set_page_dirty() instead of
set_page_dirty_lock(). A call to lock_page() is unacceptable in an rpciod
callback function.

When processes are allowed to attempt to lock a non-contiguous range of nfs
write requests, it is possible for generic_writepages to 'wrap round' the
address space, and call writepage() on a request that is already locked by
the same process.
We avoid the deadlock by checking if the page index is contiguous with the
list of nfs write requests that is already held in our
nfs_pageio_descriptor prior to attempting to lock a new request.

Allow in-place crypto operations. Also remove the coherent user flag
(we use it automagically now), and by default use the user written
key rather then the HW hidden key - this makes crypto just work without
any special considerations, and thats OK, since its our only usage
model.

The omap_uwire controller driver handles SPI_CPHA incorrectly;
It should mean:

CPHA=1 ... sample at trailing edge of clock
This bug has been masked by inverse bugs in layered drivers;

The NOHZ patch contains a check for softirqs pending when a CPU goes idle.
The BUG is unrelated to NOHZ, it just was made visible by the NOHZ patch.
The BUG showed up mainly on P4 / hyperthreading enabled machines which lead
the investigations into the wrong direction in the first place. The real
cause is in cond_resched_softirq():
cond_resched_softirq() is enabling softirqs without invoking the softirq
daemon when softirqs are pending. This leads to the warning message in the
NOHZ idle code:
t1 runs softirq disabled code on CPU#0
interrupt happens, softirq is raised, but deferred (softirqs disabled)
t1 calls cond_resched_softirq()
enables softirqs via _local_bh_enable()
calls schedule()
t2 runs
t1 is migrated to CPU#1
t2 is done and invokes idle()
NOHZ detects the pending softirq
Fix: change _local_bh_enable() to local_bh_enable() so the softirq
daemon is invoked.

If a raid0 has a component device larger than 4TB, and is accessed on a 32bit
machines, then as 'chunk' is unsigned long,
chunk << chunksize_bits
can overflow (this can be as high as the size of the device in KB). chunk
itself will not overflow (without triggering a BUG).
So change 'chunk' to be 'sector_t, and get rid of the 'BUG' as it becomes
impossible to hit.

cleanup_workqueue_thread() and cwq_should_stop() are overcomplicated.
Convert the code to use kthread_should_stop/kthread_stop as was
suggested by Gautham and Srivatsa.
In particular this patch removes the (unlikely) busy-wait loop from the
exit path, it was a temporary and ugly kludge (if not a bug).
Note: the current code was designed to solve another old problem:
work->func can't share locks with hotplug callbacks. I think this could
be done, see
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=116905366428633
but this needs some more complications to preserve CPU affinity of
cwq->thread during cpu_up(). A freezer-based hotplug looks more
appealing.

The check for super sized slabs where we can no longer move the free
pointer behind the object for debugging purposes etc is accessing a
field that is not setup yet. We must use objsize here since the size of
the slab has not been determined yet.
The effect of this is that a global slab shrink via "slabinfo -s" will
show errors about offsets being wrong if booted with slub_debug.
Potentially there are other troubles with huge slabs under slub_debug
because the calculated free pointer offset is truncated.
