fix compat console unimap regression
Why is it that since the
2f1a2ccb9c0de632ab07193becf5f7121794f6ae console
UTF-8 fixes went into 2.6.22-rc1, the PowerMac G5 shows only inverse video
question marks for the text on tty2-6? whereas tty1 is fine, and so is x86.
No fault of that patch: by removing the old fallback behaviour, it reveals
that 32-bit setfont running on 64-bit kernels has only really worked on
the current console, the rest getting faked by that inadequate fallback.
Bring the compat do_unimap_ioctl into line with the main one: PIO_UNIMAP
and GIO_UNIMAP apply to the specified tty, not redirected to fg_console.
Use the same checks, and most particularly, remember to check access_ok:
con_set_unimap and con_get_unimap are using __get_user and __put_user.
And the compat vt_check should ask for the same capability as the main
one, CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG rather than CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Added in vt_ioctl's
vc_cons_allocated check for safety, though failure may well be impossible.

[XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a
lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the
-EAGAIN buisness we had before.
Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That
works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get
silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules.
We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because
they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the
sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in
libc.
With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from
Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state
resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default.
This lays the framework to either:
1) Make this default at some point or...
2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the
ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of.
The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then
once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we
re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The
packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved
in a certain amount of time.

[NET]: "wrong timeout value" in sk_wait_data() v2
sys_setsockopt() do not check properly timeout values for
SO_RCVTIMEO/SO_SNDTIMEO, for example it's possible to set negative timeout

timeouts, but requires that setsockopt() shall fail with -EDOM if the send and
receive timeout values are too big to fit into the timeout fields in the socket
structure.
In current implementation negative timeout can lead to error messages like
"schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value".

- do not allows to set negative timeout values (sets 0 instead) and outputs

Prevent going idle with softirq pending
The NOHZ patch contains a check for softirqs pending when a CPU goes idle.
The BUG is unrelated to NOHZ, it just was made visible by the NOHZ patch.
The BUG showed up mainly on P4 / hyperthreading enabled machines which lead
the investigations into the wrong direction in the first place. The real
cause is in cond_resched_softirq():
cond_resched_softirq() is enabling softirqs without invoking the softirq
daemon when softirqs are pending. This leads to the warning message in the
NOHZ idle code:
t1 runs softirq disabled code on CPU#0
interrupt happens, softirq is raised, but deferred (softirqs disabled)
t1 calls cond_resched_softirq()
enables softirqs via _local_bh_enable()
calls schedule()
t2 runs
t1 is migrated to CPU#1
t2 is done and invokes idle()
NOHZ detects the pending softirq
Fix: change _local_bh_enable() to local_bh_enable() so the softirq
daemon is invoked.
Thanks to Anant Nitya for debugging this with great patience !

eCryptfs: delay writing 0's after llseek until write
Delay writing 0's out in eCryptfs after a seek past the end of the file
until data is actually written.

``The lseek() function shall not, by itself, extend the size of a
file.''
Without this fix, applications that lseek() past the end of the file without
writing will experience unexpected behavior.
