Now that sys_sysctl is an emulation on top of proc sys all sysctl
operations look like normal filesystem operations and we don't need
to use the special sysctl hook to authenticate them.

proc mount.
With the change of sys_sysctl going through the internal proc mount we no
longer need to handle security_sysctl in tomoyo as we have valid pathnames
for all sysctl accesses. There is one slight caveat to that in that
all of the paths from the internal mount look like
"/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range" instead of
"/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range" so tomoyo needs to add the
"/proc" portion manually when resolving to full path names to get what it expects.
This change teaches tomoyo perform that modification.

For consistency drop & in front of every proc_handler. Explicity
taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations
like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.

Because of an integer overflow on start_blk, various kind of wrong results
would be returned by the generic_block_fiemap() handler, such as no
extents when there is a 4GB+ hole at the beginning of the file, or wrong
fe_logical when an extent starts after the first 4GB.

PPS events must be recorded according to PPS's mode settings.
If a process asks for (i.e.) capture-assert events only, when the PPS
client calls the pps_event() function to save the current PPS event, we
should verify the event type and then discard unwanted ones.
Also, without this patch userland processes waiting for a specific PPS
event (assert or clear but not both) may be awakened at wrong time.

In case of failure, device_create() returns not NULL but the error code.
The current code checks for non-NULL though which causes kernel oops in
sysfs_create_group() when device_create() fails. Check for error using
IS_ERR() and propagate the error value using PTR_ERR() instead of fixed
-ENODEV code returned now...

v3020_mmio_read_bit() always returns 0 when left_shift > 7.
v3020_mmio_read_bit()'s return type is (unsigned char). The code returns
a value masked by (1 << left_shift) that is casted to the return type. If
left_shift is larger than 7, the cast will always result in a 0 return
value. The problem was discovered with left_shift = 16, and the included
patch corrects the problem.
The bug was introduced in the last (Apr 3 2009) commit of the file, kernel
versions 2.6.30 and later.

Daniel Lezcano reported a leak in 'struct pid' and 'struct pid_namespace'
that is discussed in:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/2/159.
To summarize the thread, when container-init is terminated, it sets the
PF_EXITING flag, zaps other processes in the container and waits to reap
them. As a part of reaping, the container-init should flush any /proc
dentries associated with the processes. But because the container-init is
itself exiting and the following PF_EXITING check, the dentries are not
flushed, resulting in leak in /proc inodes and dentries.
This fix reverts the commit 7766755a2f249e7e0 ("Fix /proc dcache deadlock
in do_exit") which introduced the check for PF_EXITING. At the time of
the commit, shrink_dcache_parent() flushed dentries from other filesystems
also and could have caused a deadlock which the commit fixed. But as
pointed out by Eric Biederman, after commit 0feae5c47aabdde59,
shrink_dcache_parent() no longer affects other filesystems. So reverting
the commit is now safe.
As pointed out by Jan Kara, the leak is not as critical since the
unclaimed space will be reclaimed under memory pressure or by:
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
But since this check is no longer required, its best to remove it.

disabled.
Lee Schermerhorn reported that he saw bad pointer dereference in
mem_cgroup_end_migration() when he disabled memcg by boot option.
memcg's page migration logic works as
mem_cgroup_prepare_migration(page, &ptr);
do page migration
mem_cgroup_end_migration(page, ptr);
Now, ptr is not initialized in prepare_migration when memcg is disabled
by boot option. This causes panic in end_migration. This patch fixes it.

Remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations from frame buffer layer.
They are used only in two drivers:
1. savagefb - and cause bug #11248
2. uvesafb
Usage of these operations is misunderstood in both drivers so kill these
operations, fix the bug #11248 and avoid confusion in the future.
Tested on Savage 3D/MV card and the patch fixes the bug #11248.
The frame buffer layer uses these funtions during switch between graphics
and text mode of the console, but these drivers saves state before
switching of the frame buffer (in the fb_open) and after releasing it (in
the fb_release). This defeats the purpose of these operations.

after direct reclaim failed
If a direct reclaim makes no forward progress, it considers whether it
should go OOM or not. Whether OOM is triggered or not, it may retry the
allocation afterwards. In times past, this would always wake kswapd as
well but currently, kswapd is not woken up after direct reclaim fails.
For order-0 allocations, this makes little difference but if there is a
heavy mix of higher-order allocations that direct reclaim is failing for,
it might mean that kswapd is not rewoken for higher orders as much as it
did previously.
This patch wakes up kswapd when an allocation is being retried after a
direct reclaim failure. It would be expected that kswapd is already
awake, but this has the effect of telling kswapd to reclaim at the higher
order as well.

Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys .ctl_name
and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code. Remove them.
Remove a smattering of ctl_names used in sysctl paths,
and kill the ctl_names in the recently added mach-bcmring.
mach-bcmring never should have had sysctl entries with
.ctl_name set. The binary sysctl interface has been frozen
for a long time before that code was merged, to prevent
probmes with conflicts and lack of testing. The sysctl_check
code would have caught this if anyone had ever tested it that way.
So I have simply dropped the binary sysctl support instead of
adding another compat entry into sysctl_binary.c. Going through
/proc/sys/reboot/warm will still work.

Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys .ctl_name
and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code. Remove them.
Also add an C99 named initializer to the child member of unaligned_root
to prevent chaos as the ctl_table definition changes over time.
