Module refcounting is implemented with a per-cpu counter for speed.
However there is a race when tallying the counter where a reference may
be taken by one CPU and released by another. Reference count summation
may then see the decrement without having seen the previous increment,
leading to lower than expected count. A module which never has its
actual reference drop below 1 may return a reference count of 0 due to
this race.
Module removal generally runs under stop_machine, which prevents this
race causing bugs due to removal of in-use modules. However there are
other real bugs in module.c code and driver code (module_refcount is
exported) where the callers do not run under stop_machine.
Fix this by maintaining running per-cpu counters for the number of
module refcount increments and the number of refcount decrements. The
increments are tallied after the decrements, so any decrement seen will
always have its corresponding increment counted. The final refcount is
the difference of the total increments and decrements, preventing a
low-refcount from being returned.

Scheduler's task migration events don't work because they always
pass NULL regs perf_sw_event(). The event hence gets filtered
in perf_swevent_add().
Scheduler's context switches events use task_pt_regs() to get
the context when the event occured which is a wrong thing to
do as this won't give us the place in the kernel where we went
to sleep but the place where we left userspace. The result is
even more wrong if we switch from a kernel thread.
Use the hot regs snapshot for both events as they belong to the
non-interrupt/exception based events family. Unlike page faults
or so that provide the regs matching the exact origin of the event,
we need to save the current context.
This makes the task migration event working and fix the context
switch callchains and origin ip.

percpu.h has always been including slab.h to get k[mz]alloc/free() for
UP inline implementation. percpu.h being used by very low level
headers including module.h and sched.h, this meant that a lot files
unintentionally got slab.h inclusion.
Lee Schermerhorn was trying to make topology.h use percpu.h and got
bitten by this implicit inclusion. The right thing to do is break
this ultimately unnecessary dependency. The previous patch added
explicit inclusion of either gfp.h or slab.h to the source files using
them. This patch updates percpu.h such that slab.h is no longer
included from percpu.h.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

In commit 9df93939b735 ("ext3: Use bitops to read/modify
EXT3_I(inode)->i_state") ext3 changed its internal 'i_state' variable to
use bitops for its state handling. However, unline the same ext4
change, it didn't actually change the name of the field when it changed
the semantics of it.
As a result, an old use of 'i_state' remained in fs/ext3/ialloc.c that
initialized the field to EXT3_STATE_NEW. And that does not work
_at_all_ when we're now working with individually named bits rather than
values that get masked. So the code tried to mark the state to be new,
but in actual fact set the field to EXT3_STATE_JDATA. Which makes no
sense at all, and screws up all the code that checks whether the inode
was newly allocated.
In particular, it made the xattr code unhappy, and caused various random
behavior, like apparently
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=577911
So fix the initialization, and rename the field to match ext4 so that we
don't have this happen again.

and add mod->percpu_size and record percpu_size in it. Both percpu

When the cgroup freezer is used to freeze tasks we do not want to thaw
those tasks during resume. Currently we test the cgroup freezer
state of the resuming tasks to see if the cgroup is FROZEN. If so
then we don't thaw the task. However, the FREEZING state also indicates
that the task should remain frozen.
This also avoids a problem pointed out by Oren Ladaan: the freezer state
transition from FREEZING to FROZEN is updated lazily when userspace reads
or writes the freezer.state file in the cgroup filesystem. This means that
resume will thaw tasks in cgroups which should be in the FROZEN state if
there is no read/write of the freezer.state file to trigger this
transition before suspend.
NOTE: Another "simple" solution would be to always update the cgroup
freezer state during resume. However it's a bad choice for several reasons:
Updating the cgroup freezer state is somewhat expensive because it requires
walking all the tasks in the cgroup and checking if they are each frozen.
Worse, this could easily make resume run in N^2 time where N is the number
of tasks in the cgroup. Finally, updating the freezer state from this code
path requires trickier locking because of the way locks must be ordered.
Instead of updating the freezer state we rely on the fact that lazy
updates only manage the transition from FREEZING to FROZEN. We know that
a cgroup with the FREEZING state may actually be FROZEN so test for that
state too. This makes sense in the resume path even for partially-frozen
cgroups -- those that really are FREEZING but not FROZEN.

The order of the IPv6 raw table is currently reversed, that makes impossible
to use the NOTRACK target in IPv6: for example if someone enters
ip6tables -t raw -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j NOTRACK
and if we receive fragmented packets then the first fragment will be
untracked and thus skip nf_ct_frag6_gather (and conntrack), while all
subsequent fragments enter nf_ct_frag6_gather and reassembly will never
successfully be finished.

support for the newly added High-Speed Dual Data Rate. Unfortunately the
mmc_read_ext_csd() function required that the reserved bits be zero
instead of ignoring them as it should.
This patch makes mmc_read_ext_csd() ignore the CARD_TYPE bits that are
reserved or not yet supported. It also stops the function jumping to the
end as though an error occurred, when it is only warns that the CARD_TYPE
bits (that it does interpret) are invalid.

Commit 57fe60df ("reiserfs: add atomic addition of selinux attributes
during inode creation") contains a bug that will cause it to oops when
mounting a file system that didn't previously contain extended attributes
on a system using security.* xattrs.
The issue is that while creating the privroot during mount
reiserfs_security_init calls reiserfs_xattr_jcreate_nblocks which
dereferences the xattr root. The xattr root doesn't exist, so we get an
oops.

include/linux/kfifo.h first defines and then undefines __kfifo_initializer
which is used by INIT_KFIFO (which is also a macro, so building a module
which uses INIT_KFIFO will fail).

The dma map fields in the skb_shared_info structure no longer has any users
and can be dropped since it is making the skb_shared_info unecessarily larger.
Running slabtop show that we were using 4K slabs for the skb->head on x86_64 w/
an allocation size of 1522. It turns out that the dma_head and dma_maps array
made skb_shared large enough that we had crossed over the 2k boundary with
standard frames and as such we were using 4k blocks of memory for all skbs.

On some old IBM workstations and desktop computers, the BIOS presents in the
DSDT an SMBus object that is missing the HID identifier that the i2c-scmi
driver looks for. Modify the ACPI device scan code to insert the missing HID
if it finds an IBM system with such an object.
Affected machines: IntelliStation Z20/Z30. Note that the i2c-i801 driver no
longer works on these machines because of ACPI resource conflicts.

Instead of requiring PCMCIA socket drivers to call various functions
during their (bus) resume and suspend functions, register an own
dev_pm_ops for this class. This fixes several suspend/resume bugs
seen on db1xxx-ss, and probably on some other socket drivers, too.
With regard to the asymmetry with only _noirq suspend, but split up
resume, please see bug 14334 and commit 9905d1b411946fb3 .

request_resource() and insert_resource() only return success or failure,
which no information about what existing resource conflicted with the
proposed new reservation. This patch adds request_resource_conflict()
and insert_resource_conflict(), which return the conflicting resource.
Callers may use this for better error messages or to adjust the new
resource and retry the request.

The ->release_request() callback was designed to allow the transport layer
to do housekeeping after the RPC call is done. It cannot be used to free
the request itself, and doing so leads to a use-after-free bug in
xprt_release().

Some of the debug files ended up wrongly in sysfs, because at that point
of time, debugfs didn't exist. Convert these files to use debugfs and
also seq_file. This patch converts all of these files at once and then
removes the exported symbol for the Bluetooth sysfs class.

Currently, ENOBUFS errors are reported to the socket via
netlink_set_err() even if NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS is set. However,
that should not happen. This fixes this problem and it changes the
prototype of netlink_set_err() to return the number of sockets that
have set the NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS socket option. This return
value is used in the next patch in these bugfix series.
