The hang was caused by the use of disable_irq() from the interrupt handler
itself. Fixed by the use of disable_irq_nosync(). The issue was
triggered by:

The commit 5a641bcd6398841cc4606b0a732d41a09256fd94 changed the
printk format to '%lu', but the value passed seems to be dependent
on the architecture. On x86-64, I got a new warning now because an
int value is passed actaully.
As a workaround, just cast the value always to unsigned long.

futex: setup writeable mapping for futex ops which modify user space data
|

Currently, userspace can fail to obtain the SAREA mapping (among other
reasons) if it passes SAREA_MAX to drmAddMap without aligning it to the
page size. This breaks for example on PowerPC with 64K pages and radeon
despite the kernel radeon actually doing the right rouding in the first
place.
The way SAREA_MAX is defined with a bunch of ifdef's and duplicated
between libdrm and the X server is gross, ultimately it should be
retrieved by userspace from the kernel, but in the meantime, we have
plenty of existing userspace built with bad values that need to work.
This patch works around broken userspace by rounding the requested size
in drm_addmap_core() of any SHM map to the page size. Since the backing
memory for SHM maps is also allocated within addmap_core, there is no
danger of adjacent memory being exposed due to the increased map size.
The only side effect is that drivers that previously tried to create or
access SHM maps using a size < PAGE_SIZE and failed (getting -EINVAL),
will now succeed at the cost of a little bit more memory used if that
happens to be when the map is created.

get_event_name uses sprintf to fill a buffer declared on the stack. It fills
the buffer 2 bytes at a time. What the code doesn't take into account is that
sprintf(buf, "%02x", data) actually writes 3 bytes. 2 bytes for the data and
then it nul terminates the string. Since we declare buf to be 40 characters
long and then we write 40 bytes of data into buf sprintf is going to write 41
characters. The fix is to leave room in buf for the nul terminator.

Recent PCI PM changes introduced a bug that causes some devices to be
mishandled after kexec and during early initialization. The failure
scenario in the kexec case is the following:
* Assume a PCI device is not power-manageable by the platform and has
PCI_PM_CTRL_NO_SOFT_RESET set in PMCSR.
* The device is put into D3 before kexec (using the native PCI PM).
* After kexec, pci_setup_device() sets the device's power state to
PCI_UNKNOWN.
* pci_set_power_state(dev, PCI_D0) is called by the device's driver.
* __pci_start_power_transition(dev, PCI_D0) is called and since the
device is not power-manageable by the platform, it causes
pci_update_current_state(dev, PCI_D0) to be called. As a result
the device's current_state field is updated to PCI_D3, in
accordance with the contents of its PCI PM registers.
* pci_raw_set_power_state() is called and it changes the device power
state to D0. *However*, it should also call pci_restore_bars() to
reinitialize the device, but it doesn't, because the device's
current_state field has been modified earlier.
To prevent this from happening, modify pci_platform_power_transition()
so that it doesn't use pci_update_current_state() to update the
current_state field for devices that aren't power-manageable by the
platform. Instead, this field should be updated directly for devices
that don't support the native PCI PM.

The futex code installs a read only mapping via get_user_pages_fast()
even if the futex op function has to modify user space data. The
eventual fault was fixed up by futex_handle_fault() which walked the
VMA with mmap_sem held.
After the cleanup patches which removed the mmap_sem dependency of the
futex code commit 4dc5b7a36a49eff97050894cf1b3a9a02523717 (futex:
clean up fault logic) removed the private VMA walk logic from the
futex code. This change results in a stale RO mapping which is not
fixed up.
Instead of reintroducing the previous fault logic we set up the
mapping in get_user_pages_fast() read/write for all operations which
modify user space data. Also handle private futexes in the same way
and make the current unconditional access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE) depend on
the futex op.

Due to the way that the WM8350 audio driver handles CODEC_ENA many of
the WM8350 audio registers are marked as volatile when they aren't
actually so. Allow the audio driver to see a cache of these values for
inspection during interrupt context.
To do this we need to stop satisfying any bits from volatile registers
from cache - there's no real benefit from doing so anyway, we did the
read already.

Martin Knoblauch reports that trying to build 2.6.30-rc6-git3 with
RHEL4.3 userspace (gcc (GCC) 3.4.5 20051201 (Red Hat 3.4.5-2)) causes an
internal compiler error (ICE):
drivers/char/random.c: In function `get_random_int':
drivers/char/random.c:1672: error: unrecognizable insn:

(nil))
drivers/char/random.c:1672: internal compiler error: in extract_insn, at recog.c:2083
and after some debugging it turns out that it's due to the code trying
to figure out the rough value of the current stack pointer by taking an
address of an uninitialized variable and casting that to an integer.
This is clearly a compiler bug, but it's not worth fighting - while the
current stack kernel pointer might be somewhat hard to predict in user
space, it's also not generally going to change for a lot of the call
chains for a particular process.
So just drop it, and mumble some incoherent curses at the compiler.

This is the third respin of the patch posted yesterday to fix the error
handling in cifs_follow_symlink. It also includes a fix for a bogus NULL
pointer check in CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink that Jeff Moyer spotted.
It's possible for CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink to return without setting
target_path to a valid pointer. If that happens then the current value
to which we're initializing this pointer could cause an oops when it's
kfree'd.
This patch is a little more comprehensive than the last patches. It
reorganizes cifs_follow_link a bit for (hopefully) better readability.
It should also eliminate the uneeded allocation of full_path on servers
without unix extensions (assuming they can get to this point anyway, of
which I'm not convinced).
On a side note, I'm not sure I agree with the logic of enabling this
query even when unix extensions are disabled on the client. It seems
like that should disable this as well. But, changing that is outside the
scope of this fix, so I've left it alone for now.

We can fix this by calling del_gendisk() later in blkfront_closing, after
releasing blkif_io_lock. Since the queue is stopped during the interrupts
disabled phase I don't think there is any danger of an event occuring between
releasing the blkif_io_lock and deleting the disk.

This situation can occur when attempting to attach a block device whose
backend is an empty physical CD-ROM driver. The backend in this case
will go directly from the Initialising state to Closing->Closed.
Previously this would result in a NULL pointer deref on info->gd
(xenbus_dev_fatal does not return as a1a15ac5 seems to expect)

possible, but when exec opens a file, it just opens it O_READONLY which
means EXEC permission will not be checked at that time.

Commit c45d6320 ("fix reference counting of ftdi_private") stopped
ftdi_sio_port_remove() from directly freeing the port-private data, with
the intention if the port was still open, it would be freed when
ftdi_close() is eventually called and releases the last refcount on the
structure.
That's all very well, but ftdi_sio_port_remove() still contains a call
to usb_set_serial_port_data(port, NULL) -- so by the time we get to
ftdi_close() for the port which was unplugged, it _still_ oopses on
dereferencing that NULL pointer, as it did before (and does in 2.6.29).
The fix is just not to clear the private data in ftdi_sio_port_remove().
Then the refcount is properly reduced to zero when the final kref_put()
happens in ftdi_close().
Remove a bogus comment too, while we're at it. And stop doing things
inside "if (priv)" -- it must _always_ be there.
Based loosely on an earlier patch by Daniel Mack, and suggestions by
Alan Stern.

holes V2
pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap
associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always
have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole.
In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the
entire section.
However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free
memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never
used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid()
returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional
check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the
zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of
the full memmap are extremely rare.
This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for
SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages
are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that
any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching
these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the
memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of
the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid
memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory
consumption offsetting the gains.
This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes
in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets
ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx
which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand
later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within()
for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for
that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is
invalid for that PFN.

The remove function uses __devexit, so the .remove assignment needs
__devexit_p() to fix a build error with hotplug disabled.

I don't think anything guarantees that the objects in data.page_aligned
are a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, thus the section may end on any boundary.
So the following section, .data.cacheline_aligned needs an explicit
alignment.

After upgrading my distcc boxes from gcc 4.2.2 to 4.4.0, the function
graph tracer broke. This was discovered on my x86 boxes.
The issue is that gcc used the same register for an output as it did for
an input in an asm statement. I first thought this was a bug in gcc and
reported it. I was notified that gcc was correct and that the output had
to be flagged as an "early clobber".
I noticed that powerpc had the same issue and this patch fixes it.

pr_debug() can now result in code being generated even when #DEBUG
is not defined. That's not really desirable in the ftrace code
which we want to be snappy.
With CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y:
size before:
text data bss dec hex filename
3334 672 4 4010 faa arch/powerpc/kernel/ftrace.o
size after:
text data bss dec hex filename

With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM, an assertion is made when changing the protection
flags of a PTE that the PTE is locked. Huge pages use a different pagetable
format and the assertion is bogus and will always trigger with a bug looking
something like
