cba767175becadc5c4016cceb7bfdd2c7fe722f4
("pktcdvd: remove broken dev_t export of class devices"). Device is not
registered using dev_t, so it should not be destroyed using device_destroy

again will fail with the "duplicate name" error. This is fixed using
device_unregister instead of device_destroy.

mm: flush dcache before writing into page to avoid alias
The cache alias problem will happen if the changes of user shared mapping
is not flushed before copying, then user and kernel mapping may be mapped
into two different cache line, it is impossible to guarantee the coherence
after iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic. So the right steps should be:
flush_dcache_page(page);
kmap_atomic(page);
write to page;
kunmap_atomic(page);
flush_dcache_page(page);
More precisely, we might create two new APIs flush_dcache_user_page and
flush_dcache_kern_page to replace the two flush_dcache_page accordingly.
Here is a snippet tested on omap2430 with VIPT cache, and I think it is
not ARM-specific:
int val = 0x11111111;
fd = open("abc", O_RDWR);
addr = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
*(addr+0) = 0x44444444;
tmp = *(addr+0);
*(addr+1) = 0x77777777;
write(fd, &val, sizeof(int));
close(fd);
The results are not always 0x11111111 0x77777777 at the beginning as expected. Sometimes we see 0x44444444 0x77777777.

This happens because when sub_alloc() back tracks it doesn't always do it
step-by-step while the over-the-limit detection assumes step-by-step
backtracking. The logic in sub_alloc() looks like the following.
restart:
clear pa[top level + 1] for end cond detection
l = top level
while (true) {
search for empty slot at this level
if (not found) {
push id to the next possible value
l++
A: if (pa[l] is clear)
failed, return asking caller to grow the tree
if (going up 1 level gives more slots to search)
continue the while loop above with the incremented l
else
C: goto restart
}
adjust id accordingly to the found slot
if (l == 0)
return found id;
create lower level if not there yet
record pa[l] and l--
}
Test A is the fail exit condition but this assumes that failure is
propagated upwared one level at a time but the B optimization path breaks
the assumption and restarts the whole thing with a start value which is
above the possible limit with the current layers. sub_alloc() assumes the
start id value is inside the limit when called and test A is the only exit
condition check, so it ends up searching for empty slot while ignoring
high set bit.
So, for 4095->4096 test, level0 search fails but pa[1] contains a valid
pointer. However, going up 1 level wouldn't give any more empty slot so
it takes C and when the whole thing restarts nobody notices the high bit
set beyond the top level.
This patch fixes the bug by changing the fail exit condition check to full
id limit check.

Getting it is not used, let's drop support for notifications about
(un)registered events from connector.
Another option was to check credentials on receiving, but we can always
restore it without bugs if needed, but genetlink has a wider code base
and none complained, that userspace can not get notification when some
other clients were (un)registered.
Kudos for Sebastian Krahmer <krahmer@suse.de>, who found a bug in the
code.

mm: purge fragmented percpu vmap blocks
Improve handling of fragmented per-CPU vmaps. We previously don't free
up per-CPU maps until all its addresses have been used and freed. So
fragmented blocks could fill up vmalloc space even if they actually had
no active vmap regions within them.
Add some logic to allow all CPUs to have these blocks purged in the case
of failure to allocate a new vm area, and also put some logic to trim
such blocks of a current CPU if we hit them in the allocation path (so
as to avoid a large build up of them).
Christoph reported some vmap allocation failures when using the per CPU
vmap APIs in XFS, which cannot be reproduced after this patch and the
previous bug fix.

RCU list walking of the per-cpu vmap cache was broken. It did not use

obviously wrong (because free_list is indeed the list we are RCU

While we are there, remove a couple of unused fields from an earlier

These APIs aren't actually used anywhere, because of problems with the
XFS conversion. Christoph has now verified that the problems are solved
with these patches. Also it is an exported interface, so I think it

Fix 'flush_old_exec()/setup_new_exec()' split
Commit
221af7f87b9 ("Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions") split
the function at the point of no return - ie right where there were no
more error cases to check. That made sense from a technical standpoint,
but when we then also combined it with the actual personality setting
going in between flush_old_exec() and setup_new_exec(), it needs to be a
bit more careful.
In particular, we need to make sure that we really flush the old
personality bits in the 'flush' stage, rather than later in the 'setup'
stage, since otherwise we might be flushing the _new_ personality state
that we're just setting up.
So this moves the flags and personality flushing (and 'flush_thread()',
which is the arch-specific function that generally resets lazy FP state
etc) of the old process into flush_old_exec(), so that it doesn't affect
any state that execve() is setting up for the new process environment.

cfq-iosched: Do not idle on async queues
Few weeks back, Shaohua Li had posted similar patch. I am reposting it
with more test results.
This patch does two things.
- Do not idle on async queues.
- It also changes the write queue depth CFQ drives (cfq_may_dispatch()).
Currently, we seem to driving queue depth of 1 always for WRITES. This is
true even if there is only one write queue in the system and all the logic
of infinite queue depth in case of single busy queue as well as slowly
increasing queue depth based on last delayed sync request does not seem to
be kicking in at all.
This patch will allow deeper WRITE queue depths (subjected to the other
WRITE queue depth contstraints like cfq_quantum and last delayed sync
request).
Shaohua Li had reported getting more out of his SSD. For me, I have got
one Lun exported from an HP EVA and when pure buffered writes are on, I
can get more out of the system. Following are test results of pure
buffered writes (with end_fsync=1) with vanilla and patched kernel. These
results are average of 3 sets of run with increasing number of threads.

bufwfs 3 16 0 0 299260 1.70731e+06
I also ran buffered writes along with some sequential reads and some
buffered reads going on in the system on a SATA disk because the potential
risk could be that we should not be driving queue depth higher in presence
of sync IO going to keep the max clat low.
With some random and sequential reads going on in the system on one SATA
disk I did not see any significant increase in max clat. So it looks like
other WRITE queue depth control logic is doing its job. Here are the
results.

agp_amd64_init and agp_amd64_cleanup").
The above commit changes agp_amd64_init() not to do anything if
gart_iommu_aperture is not zero.
If GART iommu calls agp_amd64_init(), we need to skip
agp_amd64_init() when it's called later via module_init.
The problem is that gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init()
with not zero gart_iommu_aperture so agp_amd64_init() is never
initialized.
When gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init(), agp should be
always initialized.

2da31939a42f7a676a0bc5155d6a0a39ed8451f2, support
for Bluetooth hid_output_raw_report was added, but it pushes
the data to the interrupt channel instead of the contol one.
This patch makes hid_output_raw_report use the control channel
instead. Using the interrupt channel was a mistake.

Bluetooth: Redo checks in IRQ handler for shared IRQ support
Commit
ac019360fe3 changed the irq handler logic to BUG_ON rather than
returning IRQ_NONE when the incoming argument is invalid. While this
works in most cases, it doesn't work when the IRQ is shared with other
devices (or when DEBUG_SHIRQ is enabled).
So revert the previous change and replace the warning message with a
comment explaining that we want this behavior.

perf, hw_breakpoint, kgdb: Do not take mutex for kernel debugger
This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the
kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw
breakpoint reservations.
The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it
can start the kernel running from an invalid context.
A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get
created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint
reservations.
The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently
processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is
improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is
warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the
hardware breakpoint reservations.
Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it
will be a system wide reservation.

x86, hw_breakpoints, kgdb: Fix kgdb to use hw_breakpoint API
In the 2.6.33 kernel, the hw_breakpoint API is now used for the
performance event counters. The hw_breakpoint_handler() now
consumes the hw breakpoints that were previously set by kgdb
arch specific code. In order for kgdb to work in conjunction
with this core API change, kgdb must use some of the low level
functions of the hw_breakpoint API to install, uninstall, and
deal with hw breakpoint reservations.
The kgdb core required a change to call kgdb_disable_hw_debug
anytime a slave cpu enters kgdb_wait() in order to keep all the
hw breakpoints in sync as well as to prevent hitting a hw
breakpoint while kgdb is active.
During the architecture specific initialization of kgdb, it will
pre-allocate 4 disabled (struct perf event **) structures. Kgdb
will use these to manage the capabilities for the 4 hw
breakpoint registers, per cpu. Right now the hw_breakpoint API
does not have a way to ask how many breakpoints are available,
on each CPU so it is possible that the install of a breakpoint
might fail when kgdb restores the system to the run state. The
intent of this patch is to first get the basic functionality of
hw breakpoints working and leave it to the person debugging the
kernel to understand what hw breakpoints are in use and what
restrictions have been imposed as a result. Breakpoint
constraints will be dealt with in a future patch.
While atomic, the x86 specific kgdb code will call
arch_uninstall_hw_breakpoint() and arch_install_hw_breakpoint()
to manage the cpu specific hw breakpoints.
The net result of these changes allow kgdb to use the same pool
of hw_breakpoints that are used by the perf event API, but
neither knows about future reservations for the available hw
breakpoint slots.

mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swapping
After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's
5f8dcc21211a3d4e3a7a5ca366b469fb88117f61 "page-allocator: split per-cpu
list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE
pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves.
Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads
of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is
already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it.
How did this bug show up? As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild
swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator. Bisecting to that
commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy.
The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even
less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones
than x86, I think that may be a factor). We guess that lumpy reclaim
of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably
this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim.
But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and
imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up
the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.
