powerpc: Make it possible to select hibernation on all PowerPCs
Just as with kexec, hibernation may fail even on well-tested platforms:
some PCI device, a driver of which doesn't play well with hibernation,
is enough to break resuming.
Hibernation code is not much platform dependent, and hiding features only
because these were not verified on a particular hardware is
counterproductive: we just prevent the features from being widely tested.
For example, with this patch I just tested hibernation on a MPC83xx
board, and it works quite well, modulo a few drivers that need some
fixing.
So, let's make it possible to select hibernation support for all
PowerPCs, then let's wait for any possible bug reports, and actually fix
(or just collect ;-) the bugs instead of hiding them. If some platforms
really can't stand hibernation, we can make a blacklist, with proper
comments why exactly hibernation doesn't work, whether it is possible to
fix, and what needs to be done to fix it.
CONFIG_HIBERNATION is still =n by default, so the commit doesn't change
anything apart from ability to set it to =y.
I'm not sure if EXPERIMENTAL dependency is needed, I'd rather not add it
for a few reasons:
1) It doesn't matter much, for distro kernels user has no clue that some
feature is experimental. Majority of defconfigs enable EXPERIMENTAL
anyway (90 vs. 4, which, btw, means that EXPERIMENTAL is overused
in Kconfigs);
2) EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing for features that change default
behaviour of a kernel, while for hibernation user has to explicitly
issue 'echo disk > /sys/power/state' to trigger any hibernation bugs;
3) Per init/Kconfig, EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing to scare and discourage
users from 'widespread use of a feature', while we want to encourage
that use.

cpuidle: always return with interrupts enabled
In the case where cpuidle_idle_call() returns before changing state due to
a need_resched(), it was returning with IRQs disabled.
The idle path assumes that the platform specific idle code returns with
interrupts enabled (although this too is undocumented AFAICT) and on ARM
we have a WARN_ON(!(irqs_disabled()) when returning from the idle loop, so
the user-visible effects were only a warning since interrupts were
eventually re-enabled later.
On x86, this same problem exists, but there is no WARN_ON() to detect it.
As on ARM, the interrupts are eventually re-enabled, so I'm not sure of
any actual bugs triggered by this. It's primarily a
correctness/consistency fix.
This patch ensures IRQs are (re)enabled before returning.

The macro concatenation (##) sequence can cause false errors when checking

edac: i5400 fix csrow mapping
The i5400 EDAC driver has several bugs with chip-select row computation
which most likely lead to bugs in detailed error reporting. Attempts to
contact the authors have gone mostly unanswered so I am presenting my diff
here. I do not subscribe to lkml and would appreciate being kept in the
cc.
The most egregious problem was miscalculating the addresses of MTR
registers after register 0 by assuming they are 32bit rather than 16.
This caused the driver to miss half of the memories. Most motherboards
tend to have only 8 dimm slots and not 16, so this may not have been
noticed before.
Further, the row calculations multiplied the number of dimms several
times, ultimately ending up with a maximum row of 32. The chipset only
supports 4 dimms in each of 4 channels, so csrow could not be higher than
4 unless you use a row per-rank with dual-rank dimms. I opted to
eliminate this behavior as it is confusing to the user and the error
reporting works by slot and not rank. This gives a much clearer view of
memory by slot and channel in /sys.

twl4030-gpio: remove __devexit markings from remove func
The gpio_twl4030_probe() function calls gpio_twl4030_remove(), and the
former has __devinit, so the latter cannot use __devexit. Otherwise we
hit the section mismatch warning:
WARNING: drivers/gpio/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x71a): Section mismatch
in reference from the function _gpio_twl4030_probe() to the function
.devexit.text:_gpio_twl4030_remove()
The function __devinit _gpio_twl4030_probe() references a function
__devexit _gpio_twl4030_remove().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function uses
functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __devexit annotation of
_gpio_twl4030_remove() so it may be used outside an exit section.

vmscan: order evictable rescue in LRU putback
Isolators putting a page back to the LRU do not hold the page lock, and if
the page is mlocked, another thread might munlock it concurrently.
Expecting this, the putback code re-checks the evictability of a page when
it just moved it to the unevictable list in order to correct its decision.
The problem, however, is that ordering is not garuanteed between setting
PG_lru when moving the page to the list and checking PG_mlocked
afterwards:
#0: #1
spin_lock()
if (TestClearPageMlocked())
if (PageLRU())
move to evictable list
SetPageLRU()
spin_unlock()
if (!PageMlocked())
move to evictable list
The PageMlocked() check may get reordered before SetPageLRU() in #0,
resulting in #0 not moving the still mlocked page, and in #1 failing to
isolate and move the page as well. The page is now stranded on the
unevictable list.
The race condition is very unlikely. The consequence currently is one
page falling off the reclaim grid and eventually getting freed with
PG_unevictable set, which triggers a warning in the page allocator.
TestClearPageMlocked() in #1 already provides full memory barrier
semantics.
This patch adds an explicit full barrier to force ordering between
SetPageLRU() and PageMlocked() so that either one of the competitors
rescues the page.

mm: oom analysis: add buffer cache information to show_free_areas()
show_free_areas() is called during page allocation failures, and page
allocation failures can occur in any calling context.
But nr_blockdev_pages() takes VFS locks which should not be taken from
hard IRQ context (at least). The result is lockdep warnings (and
deadlockability) during page allocation failures.

hfsplus: refuse to mount volumes larger than 2TB
As found in <http://bugs.debian.org/550010>, hfsplus is using type u32

The warning is
---> WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq() || irqs_disabled());
The network code must not be called with disabled interrupts but
sys_setsid holds the tasklist_lock with spinlock_irq while calling the
connector.
After a discussion we agreed that we can move proc_sid_connector from
__set_special_pids to sys_setsid.
We also agreed that it is sufficient to change the check from
task_session(curr) != pid into err > 0, since if we don't change the
session, this means we were already the leader and return -EPERM.
One last thing:
There is also daemonize(), and some people might want to get a
notification in that case. Since daemonize() is only needed if a user
space does kernel_thread this does not look important (and there seems
to be no consensus if this connector should be called in daemonize). If
we really want this, we can add proc_sid_connector to daemonize() in an
additional patch (Scott?)

We could fix it for 2.6.32 at the KSM end, by putting a dummy anon_vma

ide: Serialize CMD643 and CMD646 to fix a hardware bug with SSD
CMD646 corrupts data on concurrent transfers on both channels when IDE SSD is
connected to one of the channels.
Setup that demonstrates this hardware bug: Ultra 5, onboard CMD646, rev 3.
/dev/hda is 8GB Seagate ST38410A in MWDMA2
/dev/hdd is 32GB SSD SiliconHardDisk in MWDMA2
- When reading /dev/hdd (for example with dd or fsck), reads from /dev/hda
are corrupted, there are twiddled single bits 1->0 and some full 32-bit
words corrupted, sometimes commands fail (which switches /dev/hda to
PIO mode but the corruptions happen even in PIO).
- Reads from /dev/hdd don't seem to be corrupted (i.e. fsck passes fine).
- When I connected normal rotating harddisk to /dev/hdd, there was no
corruption, so the corruption is something specific to SSD.
- I tried the same setup on a PCI card with CMD649 and saw no corruption.
This patch serializes the operation for CMD646 and 643 (I didn't test
CMD643 but it may have the same hw bug too because it's earlier design).

AF_RAW: Augment raw_send_hdrinc to expand skb to fit iphdr->ihl (v2)
Augment raw_send_hdrinc to correct for incorrect ip header length values
A series of oopses was reported to me recently. Apparently when using AF_RAW
sockets to send data to peers that were reachable via ipsec encapsulation,
people could panic or BUG halt their systems.
I've tracked the problem down to user space sending an invalid ip header over an
AF_RAW socket with IP_HDRINCL set to 1.
Basically what happens is that userspace sends down an ip frame that includes
only the header (no data), but sets the ip header ihl value to a large number,
one that is larger than the total amount of data passed to the sendmsg call. In
raw_send_hdrincl, we allocate an skb based on the size of the data in the msghdr
that was passed in, but assume the data is all valid. Later during ipsec
encapsulation, xfrm4_tranport_output moves the entire frame back in the skbuff
to provide headroom for the ipsec headers. During this operation, the
skb->transport_header is repointed to a spot computed by
skb->network_header + the ip header length (ihl). Since so little data was
passed in relative to the value of ihl provided by the raw socket, we point
transport header to an unknown location, resulting in various crashes.
This fix for this is pretty straightforward, simply validate the value of of
iph->ihl when sending over a raw socket. If (iph->ihl*4U) > user data buffer
size, drop the frame and return -EINVAL. I just confirmed this fixes the
reported crashes.

bonding: fix a race condition in calls to slave MII ioctls
In mii monitor mode, bond_check_dev_link() calls the the ioctl
handler of slave devices. It stores the ndo_do_ioctl function
pointer to a static (!) ioctl variable and later uses it to call the
handler with the IOCTL macro.
If another thread executes bond_check_dev_link() at the same time
(even with a different bond, which none of the locks prevent), a
race condition occurs. If the two racing slaves have different
drivers, this may result in one driver's ioctl handler being
called with a pointer to a net_device controlled with a different
driver, resulting in unpredictable breakage.
Unless I am overlooking something, the "static" must be a
copy'n'paste error (?).

param: fix setting arrays of bool
We create a dummy struct kernel_param on the stack for parsing each
array element, but we didn't initialize the flags word. This matters
for arrays of type "bool", where the flag indicates if it really is
an array of bools or unsigned int (old-style).

param: fix lots of bugs with writing charp params from sysfs, by leaking mem.
e180a6b7759a "param: fix charp parameters set via sysfs" fixed the case
where charp parameters written via sysfs were freed, leaving drivers
accessing random memory.
Unfortunately, storing a flag in the kparam struct was a bad idea: it's
rodata so setting it causes an oops on some archs. But that's not all:
1) module_param_array() on charp doesn't work reliably, since we use an
uninitialized temporary struct kernel_param.
2) there's a fundamental race if a module uses this parameter and then
it's changed: they will still access the old, freed, memory.
The simplest fix (ie. for 2.6.32) is to never free the memory. This
prevents all these problems, at cost of a memory leak. In practice, there
are only 18 places where a charp is writable via sysfs, and all are
root-only writable.
