Some new uses of get_empty_filp() have crept in; switched
to alloc_file() to make sure that pieces of initialization
won't be missing.
We really need to kill get_empty_filp().

Make sure no-one calls dentry_open with a NULL vfsmount argument and crap
out with a stacktrace otherwise. A NULL file->f_vfsmnt has always been
problematic, but with the per-mount r/o tracking we can't accept anymore
at all.
[AV] the last place that passed NULL had been eliminated by the previous
patch (reiserfs xattr stuff)

After several posts and bug reports regarding interaction with the NULL
nameidata, here's a patch to clean up the mess with struct file in the
reiserfs xattr code.
As observed in several of the posts, there's really no need for struct file
to exist in the xattr code. It was really only passed around due to the
f_op->readdir() and a_ops->{prepare,commit}_write prototypes requiring it.
reiserfs_prepare_write() and reiserfs_commit_write() don't actually use the
struct file passed to it, and the xattr code uses a private version of
reiserfs_readdir() to enumerate the xattr directories.

* hppfs_iget() and its users are racy; there's no need to pollute icache
anyway, new_inode() works fine and is safe, unlike the current kludges
(these relied on overwriting ->i_ino before another iget_locked() gets
to that one - and did it after unlocking).
* merge hppfs_iget()/init_inode()/hppfs_read_inode(), while we are
at it.
* to pass proper vfsmount to dentry_open() store the reference
in hppfs superblock.

Here's patch for hppfs that uses vfs_kern_mount to make sure it always has a
procfs instance and passed the vfsmount on through the inode private data.
Also fixes a procfs file_system_type leak for every attempted hppfs mount.

vfs_kern_mount() requires having a reference to fs type, which
makes it impossible for module to create procfs, etc. private
mount. Open-coding is not an option, since e.g. put_filesystem()
is _not_ exported, and for a good reason.

Improve ACPI hotplug handling such that dock event is handled properly.
* Register handlers for dock events.
* Directly detach device on EJECT_REQUEST instead of signaling hotplug
event. This prevents libata from accessing severed controller

The problem can be triggered with a high amount of host->guest traffic.
I think its the following race:
poll says netif_rx_complete
poll calls enable_cb
enable_cb opens the interrupt mask
a new packet comes, an interrupt is triggered----\
enable_cb sees that there is more work |
enable_cb disables the interrupt |
. V
. interrupt is delivered
. skb_recv_done does atomic napi test, ok
some waiting disable_cb is called->check fails->bang!
.
poll would do napi check
poll would do disable_cb
The fix is to let enable_cb not disable the interrupt again, but expect the
caller to do the cleanup if it returns false. In that case, the interrupt is
only disabled, if the napi test_set_bit was successful.

Commit a0c1e9073ef7428a14309cba010633a6cd6719ea added code to futex.c

time:
+ curval = cmpxchg_futex_value_locked(NULL, 0, 0);
+ if (curval == -EFAULT)
+ futex_cmpxchg_enabled = 1;
This is bogus on parisc, since page zero in kernel virtual space is the
gateway page for syscall entry, and should not be read from the kernel.

Commit 721fdf34167580ff98263c74cead8871d76936e6 introduced a subtle bug
by accidently removing the "static" from iodc_dbuf. This resulted in, what
appeared to be, a trap without *current set to a task. Probably the result of
a trap in real mode while calling firmware.
Also do other misc clean ups. Since the only input from firmware is non
blocking, share iodc_dbuf between input and output, and spinlock the
only callers.

This essentially reverts commit 71fc47a9adf8ee89e5c96a47222915c5485ac437
("ACPI: basic initramfs DSDT override support"), because the code simply
isn't ready.
It did ugly things to the init sequence to populate the rootfs image
early, but that just ended up showing other problems with the whole
approach. The fact is, the VFS layer simply isn't initialized this
early, and the relevant ACPI code should either run much later, or this
shouldn't be done at all.
For 2.6.25, we'll just pick the latter option. We can revisit this
concept later if necessary.

Currently we schedule to the leftmost task in the runqueue. When the
runtimes are very short because of some server/client ping-pong,
especially in over-saturated workloads, this will cycle through all
tasks trashing the cache.
Reduce cache trashing by keeping dependent tasks together by running
newly woken tasks first. However, by not running the leftmost task first
we could starve tasks because the wakee can gain unlimited runtime.
Therefore we only run the wakee if its within a small
(wakeup_granularity) window of the leftmost task. This preserves
fairness, but does alternate server/client task groups.

Current min_vruntime tracking is incorrect and will cause serious
problems when we don't run the leftmost task for some reason.
min_vruntime does two things; 1) it's used to determine a forward
direction when the u64 vruntime wraps, 2) it's used to track the
leftmost vruntime to position newly enqueued tasks from.
The current logic advances min_vruntime whenever the current task's
vruntime advance. Because the current task may pass the leftmost task
still waiting we're failing the second goal. This causes new tasks to be
placed too far ahead and thus penalizes their runtime.
Fix this by making min_vruntime the min_vruntime of the waiting tasks by
tracking it in enqueue/dequeue, and compare against current's vruntime
to obtain the absolute minimum when placing new tasks.

Fix a hard to trigger crash seen in the -rt kernel that also affects
the vanilla scheduler.
There is a race condition between schedule() and some dequeue/enqueue
functions; rt_mutex_setprio(), __setscheduler() and sched_move_task().
When scheduling to idle, idle_balance() is called to pull tasks from
other busy processor. It might drop the rq lock. It means that those 3
functions encounter on_rq=0 and running=1. The current task should be
put when running.
Here is a possible scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
| schedule()
| ->deactivate_task()
| ->idle_balance()
| -->load_balance_newidle()
rt_mutex_setprio() |
| --->double_lock_balance()
*get lock *rel lock
* on_rq=0, ruuning=1 |
* sched_class is changed |
*rel lock *get lock
: |
:
->put_prev_task_rt()
->pick_next_task_fair()
=> panic
The current process of CPU1(P1) is scheduling. Deactivated P1, and the
scheduler looks for another process on other CPU's runqueue because CPU1
will be idle. idle_balance(), load_balance_newidle() and
double_lock_balance() are called and double_lock_balance() could drop
the rq lock. On the other hand, CPU0 is trying to boost the priority of
P1. The result of boosting only P1's prio and sched_class are changed to
RT. The sched entities of P1 and P1's group are never put. It makes
cfs_rq invalid, because the cfs_rq has curr and no leaf, but
pick_next_task_fair() is called, then the kernel panics.
