When the dump cannot occur most likely because of a full file system and
the page to be written is the zero page, the call to page_cache_release()
is missed.

It seems that there must be at least one node in mems and at least one CPU
in cpus in order to be able to assign tasks to a cpuset. This makes sense.
And I think it would also make sense to include a mems setting in the
basic usage section of the documentation.
I also wonder if something logged to dmsg, explaining why a write failed,
would be a good enhancement. I ended up having rummage arround in cpuset.c
in order to work out why my configuration was failing.

Currently we have a confused udelay implementation.
* __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64
* our implementation requires usecs as arg
* it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h
Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some
x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper.
To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed -
that's why UML seems to work most times. Fix this with a simple udelay
implementation.

We're using #ifdef CONFIG_SYSCTL, but we should be using CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL,
so we get

This patch:
- Switches mb/rmb/wmb back to being full-blown DMBs on ARM SMP systems,
since mb/rmb/wmb are required to order Normal memory accesses as well.
- Enables the use of DMB and ISB on XSC3 (which is an ARMv5TE ISA core
but conforms to the ARMv6 memory ordering model and supports the
various ARMv6 barriers.)
- Makes DMA coherent platforms (only ixp23xx at the moment) map
mb/rmb/wmb to dmb(), as on DMA coherent platforms, DMA consistent
mappings are done as Normal mappings, which are weakly ordered.

This patch addresses the following issues with the pxa2xx FIr driver:
1. increment overrun error counter and not frame error counter on ICSR1_ROR bit set in ICSR1.
2. drop frames reported with the frame error from the IC.
3. when resetting the receiver and preparing it for the next DMA in pxa_irda_fir_irq() actually clear the Rx FIFO. See description in Table 11-2 in PXA270 Developer's Manual of the RXE bit.
Correction added in version 2: clearing the IC Rx FIFO also has to be done in pxa_irda_fir_dma_tx_irq()

Commit 2e3646e51b2d6415549b310655df63e7e0d7a080 changed the way the
split config tree is built, but failed to also adjust fixdep accordingly
- if changing a config option from or to m, files referencing the
respective CONFIG_..._MODULE (but not the corresponding CONFIG_...)
didn't get rebuilt.
The problem is that trisate symbol are represent with three different
symbols:
SYMBOL=n => no symbol defined
SYMBOL=y => CONFIG_SYMBOL defined to '1'
SYMBOL=m => CONFIG_SYMBOL_MODULE defined to '1'
But conf_split_config do not distingush between the =y and =m case, so
only the =y case is honoured.
This is fixed in fixdep so when a CONFIG symbol with _MODULE is found we
skip that part and only look for the CONFIG_SYMBOL version.

ia64 expects following vm layout:
== low memory
[register-stack grows up]
[memory-stack grows down]
== high memory
But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the
maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the
stack *might* start. Stack randomization will result in the
memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the
user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can
end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if
you were very unlucky right on top of it!).
Fix: Calculate the base address for the register stack starting
from the actual address of the memory stack.

filling the sparse hole with data. xip does now use its own zeroed page
for its sparse mappings. Please apply.

sys_madvise has down_write of mmap_sem, then madvise_remove calls
vmtruncate_range which takes i_mutex and i_alloc_sem: no, we can easily devise
deadlocks from that ordering.
madvise_remove drop mmap_sem while calling vmtruncate_range: luckily, since
madvise_remove doesn't split or merge vmas, it's easy to handle this case with
a NULL prev, without restructuring sys_madvise. (Though sad to retake
mmap_sem when it's unlikely to be needed, and certainly down_read is
sufficient for MADV_REMOVE, unlike the other madvices.)

shmem_truncate_range has its own truncate_inode_pages_range, to free any pages
racily instantiated while it was in progress: a SHMEM_PAGEIN flag is set when
this might have happened. But holepunching gets no chance to clear that flag
at the start of vmtruncate_range, so it's always set (unless a truncate came
just before), so holepunch almost always does this second
truncate_inode_pages_range.
shmem holepunch has unlikely swap<->file races hereabouts whatever we do
(without a fuller rework than is fit for this release): I was going to skip
the second truncate in the punch_hole case, but Miklos points out that would
make holepunch correctness more vulnerable to swapoff. So keep the second
truncate, but follow it by an unmap_mapping_range to eliminate the
disconnected pages (freed from pagecache while still mapped in userspace) that
it might have left behind.

Miklos Szeredi observes that during truncation of shmem page directories,
info->lock is released to improve latency (after lowering i_size and
next_index to exclude races); but this is quite wrong for holepunching, which
receives no such protection from i_size or next_index, and is left vulnerable
to races with shmem_unuse, shmem_getpage and shmem_writepage.
Hold info->lock throughout when holepunching? No, any user could prevent
rescheduling for far too long. Instead take info->lock just when needed: in
shmem_free_swp when removing the swap entries, and whenever removing a
directory page from the level above. But so long as we remove before
scanning, we can safely skip taking the lock at the lower levels, except at
misaligned start and end of the hole.
