YAMAMOTO-san noticed that task_dirty_inc doesn't seem to be called properly for
cases where set_page_dirty is not used to dirty a page (eg. mark_buffer_dirty).
Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is
called. It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback.
So rather than increment it in a set_page_dirty wrapper, move it down to
exactly where the dirty page accounting stats are incremented.

As requested by Michael, add a missing check for valid flags in
timerfd_settime(), and make it return EINVAL in case some extra bits are
set.
Michael said:
If this is to be any use to userland apps that want to check flag
support (perhaps it is too late already), then the sooner we get it
into the kernel the better: 2.6.29 would be good; earlier stables as
well would be even better.

Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the
offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is
broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread.
To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we
know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to
read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to
the offset user space wanted.

Separate FMODE_PREAD and FMODE_PWRITE into separate flags to reflect the
reality that the read and write paths may have independent restrictions.
A git grep verifies that these flags are always cleared together so this
new behavior will only apply to interfaces that change to clear flags
individually.

If a USB PCI controller is behind a cardbus bridge, we are trying to
restore its configuration registers too early, before the cardbus
bridge is operational. To fix this, call pci_restore_state() from
usb_hcd_pci_resume() and remove usb_hcd_pci_resume_early() which is
no longer necessary (the configuration spaces of USB controllers that
are not behind cardbus bridges will be restored by the PCI PM core
with interrupts disabled anyway).

This is the cause of the DMA faults and disk corruption that people have
been seeing. Some chipsets neglect to report the RWBF "capability" --
the flag which says that we need to flush the chipset write-buffer when
changing the DMA page tables, to ensure that the change is visible to
the IOMMU.
Override that bit on the affected chipsets, and everything is happy
again.

WARNING: at fs/namespace.c:636 mntput_no_expire+0xac/0xf2()
due to optimistically checking cpu_writer->mnt outside the spinlock.
Here's what we really want:
* we know that nobody will set cpu_writer->mnt to mnt from now on
* all changes to that sucker are done under cpu_writer->lock
* we want the laziest equivalent of
spin_lock(&cpu_writer->lock);
if (likely(cpu_writer->mnt != mnt)) {
spin_unlock(&cpu_writer->lock);
continue;
}
/* do stuff */
that would make sure we won't miss earlier setting of ->mnt done by
another CPU.
Anyway, for now we just move the spin_lock() earlier and move the test
into the properly locked region.

As reported by David Engel <david@istwok.net>, ATSC115 doesn't work
fine with mythtv. This software opens both analog and dvb interfaces of
saa7134.
What happens is that some tuner commands are going to the wrong place,
as shown at the logs:
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: using tuner params #0 (ntsc)
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: freq = 67.25 (1076), range = 0, config = 0xce, cb = 0x01
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: Freq= 67.25 MHz, V_IF=45.75 MHz, Offset=0.00 MHz, div=1808
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner 1-0061: tv freq set to 67.25
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: using tuner params #0 (ntsc)
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: freq = 67.25 (1076), range = 0, config = 0xce, cb = 0x01
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: Freq= 67.25 MHz, V_IF=45.75 MHz, Offset=0.00 MHz, div=1808
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: tv 0x07 0x10 0xce 0x01
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: tv 0x07 0x10 0xce 0x01
This happens due to a hack at TUV1236D analog setup, where it replaces
tuner address, at 0x61 for 0x0a, in order to save a few memory bytes.
The code assumes that nobody else would try to access the tuner during
that setup, but the point is that there's no lock to protect such
access. So, this opens the possibility of race conditions to happen.
Instead of hacking tuner address, this patch uses a temporary var with
the proper tuner value to be used during the setup. This should save
the issue, although we should consider to write some analog/digital
lock at saa7134 driver.

It turns out that LRW has never worked properly on big endian.
This was never discussed because nobody actually used it that
way. In fact, it was only discovered when Geert Uytterhoeven
loaded it through tcrypt which failed the test on it.
The fix is straightforward, on big endian the to find the nth
bit we should be grouping them by words instead of bytes. So
setbit128_bbe should xor with 128 - BITS_PER_LONG instead of
128 - BITS_PER_BYTE == 0x78.
