9905d1b411 PM / yenta: Split resume into early and late parts (rev. 4)
Commit 0c570cdeb8
(PM / yenta: Fix cardbus suspend/resume regression) caused resume to
fail on systems with two CardBus bridges.  While the exact nature
of the failure is not known at the moment, it can be worked around by
splitting the yenta resume into an early part, executed during the
early phase of resume, that will only resume the socket and power it
up if there was a card in it during suspend, and a late part,
executed during "regular" resume, that will carry out all of the
remaining yenta resume operations.

Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14334, which is a
listed regression from 2.6.31.

3e2796a90c 9p: fix readdir corner cases
The patch below also addresses a couple of other corner cases in readdir
seen with a large (e.g. 64k) msize.  I'm not sure what people think of
my co-opting of fid->aux here.  I'd be happy to rework if there's a better
way.

When the size of the user supplied buffer passed to readdir is smaller
than the data returned in one go by the 9P read request, v9fs_dir_readdir()
currently discards extra data so that, on the next call, a 9P read
request will be issued with offset < previous offset + bytes returned,
which voilates the constraint described in paragraph 3 of read(5) description.
This patch preseves the leftover data in fid->aux for use in the next call.

strstrip() can return a modified value of its input argument, when

return value to be ignored.  The caller is probably going to use the
incorrect original pointer.

So mark it __must_check to prevent this frm happening (as it has before).

65afac7d80 param: fix lots of bugs with writing charp params from sysfs, by leaking mem.
e180a6b775 "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.

721a669b72 perf events: Fix swevent hrtimer sampling by keeping track of remaining time when enabling/disabling swevent hrtimers
Make the hrtimer based events work for sysprof.

Whenever a swevent is scheduled out, the hrtimer is canceled.
When it is scheduled back in, the timer is restarted. This
happens every scheduler tick, which means the timer never
expired because it was getting repeatedly restarted over and
over with the same period.

To fix that, save the remaining time when disabling; when
reenabling, use that saved time as the period instead of the
user-specified sampling period.

Also, move the starting and stopping of the hrtimers to helper
functions instead of duplicating the code.

e95646c3ec virtio: let header files include virtio_ids.h
Rusty,

commit 3ca4f5ca73
    virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.

In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

019129d595 rcu: Stopgap fix for synchronize_rcu_expedited() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
For the short term, map synchronize_rcu_expedited() to
synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and to
synchronize_sched_expedited() for TREE_RCU.

Longer term, there needs to be a real expedited grace period for
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, but candidate patches to date are considerably
more complex and intrusive.

43046b6066 workqueue: add 'flush_delayed_work()' to run and wait for delayed work
It basically turns a delayed work into an immediate work, and then waits

799e2205ec sched: Disable SD_PREFER_LOCAL for MC/CPU domains
Yanmin reported that both tbench and hackbench were significantly
hurt by trying to keep tasks local on these domains, esp on small
cache machines.

So disable it in order to promote spreading outside of the cache
domains.

d20ef63d32 mac80211: document ieee80211_rx() context requirement
ieee80211_rx() must be called with softirqs disabled
since the networking stack requires this for netif_rx()
and some code in mac80211 can assume that it can not
be processing its own tasklet and this call at the same
time.

It may be possible to remove this requirement after a
careful audit of mac80211 and doing any needed locking
improvements in it along with disabling softirqs around
netif_rx(). An alternative might be to push all packet
processing to process context in mac80211, instead of
to the tasklet, and add other synchronisation.

5fdb9973c1 net: Fix struct sock bitfield annotation
Since commit a98b65a3 (net: annotate struct sock bitfield), we lost
8 bytes in struct sock on 64bit arches because of
kmemcheck_bitfield_end(flags) misplacement.

Fix this by putting together sk_shutdown, sk_no_check, sk_userlocks,
sk_protocol and sk_type in the 'flags' 32bits bitfield

c01226c314 warn about use of uninstalled kernel headers
User applications frequently hit problems when they try to use
the kernel headers directly, rather than the exported headers.

This adds an explicit warning for this case, and points to
a URL holding an explanation of why this is wrong and what
to do about it.
