e9ec7f3539 X86: intel_ips, check for kzalloc properly
Stanse found that there are two NULL checks missing in ips_monitor. So
check their value too and bail out appropriately if the allocation
failed.

While at it, add one more kfree to the fail path. It is not necessary
now, but may be needed in the future when a new allocation is added.
And for completeness.

Also remove unneeded initialization of the variables. They are all set
right after their declaration.

aa7ffc01d2 x86 platform driver: intelligent power sharing driver
Intel Core i3/5 platforms with integrated graphics support both CPU and
GPU turbo mode.  CPU turbo mode is opportunistic: the CPU will use any
available power to increase core frequencies if thermal headroom is
available.  The GPU side is more manual however; the graphics driver
must monitor GPU power and temperature and coordinate with a core
thermal driver to take advantage of available thermal and power headroom
in the package.

The intelligent power sharing (IPS) driver is intended to coordinate
this activity by monitoring MCP (multi-chip package) temperature and
power, allowing the CPU and/or GPU to increase their power consumption,
and thus performance, when possible.  The goal is to maximize
performance within a given platform's TDP (thermal design point).

6d96e00cef X86 platform: hp-wmi Better match the HP WMI query interface
- Improve error handling, by explictly return zero for success, error otherwise
- WMI query command can have arbitrary input sized params
- WMI query command can have specific output sized params (0, 4, 128,..) byte

I like to go on here, but this is a rather intrusive change that should
be looked at first. I am sure the one or other thing can be done better or
there might be typo/bug somewhere.

This did not get any testing yet, only compile tested.

Next steps could be:
  - Eventually introduce hp_wmi_perform_{read,write}_query macros
  - Introduce new wireless query interface (0x1B)
  - more

8dda6b0410 x86 platform drivers: hp-wmi fix buffer size depending on ACPI version
Depending on ACPI version (1.0 -> 32 bit) an integer could be
32 or 64 bit long. _WED internal concatenates two integers and
the return value will be 8 byte (2* 32 bit) or 16 byte (2* 64 bit)
long, depending on the ACPI version.

Also the data send with the WMI event is defined to be splitted into:
  - Event ID -> 4 bytes
  - Event Data -> 4 bytes

This gets messed up with new ACPI versions.
But it's a HP BIOS bug that may get fixed in the future
-> Support both, 16 and 8 byte _WED buffers.

Also the wrong assumption that from the event data sent, only the
first byte is relevant got cleaned up that it fits event_id/event_data
as described above.

de51257aa3 mm: fix ia64 crash when gcore reads gate area
Debian's ia64 autobuilders have been seeing kernel freeze or reboot
when running the gdb testsuite (Debian bug 588574): dannf bisected to
2.6.32 62eede62da "mm: ZERO_PAGE without
PTE_SPECIAL"; and reproduced it with gdb's gcore on a simple target.

I'd missed updating the gate_vma handling in __get_user_pages(): that
happens to use vm_normal_page() (nowadays failing on the zero page),
yet reported success even when it failed to get a page - boom when
access_process_vm() tried to copy that to its intermediate buffer.

Fix this, resisting cleanups: in particular, leave it for now reporting
success when not asked to get any pages - very probably safe to change,
but let's not risk it without testing exposure.

Why did ia64 crash with 16kB pages, but succeed with 64kB pages?
Because setup_gate() pads each 64kB of its gate area with zero pages.

smp_processor_id() must not be called from a preemptible context (this

This lead to a problem where the wrong per_cpu kmap_high_l1_vipt_depth

kunmap_high_l1_vipt().

The solution is to move the call to smp_processor_id() after the call

674b222292 nfs: include space for the NUL in root path
In root_nfs_name() it does the following:

        if (strlen(buf) + strlen(cp) > NFS_MAXPATHLEN) {
                printk(KERN_ERR "Root-NFS: Pathname for remote directory too long.\n");
                return -1;
        }
        sprintf(nfs_export_path, buf, cp);

In the original code if (strlen(buf) + strlen(cp) == NFS_MAXPATHLEN)
then the sprintf() would lead to an overflow.  Generally the rest of the
code assumes that the path can have NFS_MAXPATHLEN (1024) characters and
a NUL terminator so the fix is to add space to the nfs_export_path[]
buffer.

8f92054e7c CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner comment
Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check by removing the following validation
condition:

	lockdep_tasklist_lock_is_held()

as commit_creds() does not take the tasklist_lock, and nor do most of the
functions that call it, so this check is pointless and it can prevent
detection of the RCU lock not being held if the tasklist_lock is held.

Instead, add the following validation condition:

	task->exit_state >= 0

to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore unable to change
its own credentials.

Fix __task_cred()'s comment to:

 (1) discard the bit that says that the caller must prevent the target task
     from being deleted.  That shouldn't need saying.

 (2) Add a comment indicating the result of __task_cred() should not be passed
     directly to get_cred(), but rather than get_task_cred() should be used
     instead.

Also put a note into the documentation to enforce this point there too.

de09a9771a CRED: Fix get_task_cred() and task_state() to not resurrect dead credentials
It's possible for get_task_cred() as it currently stands to 'corrupt' a set of
credentials by incrementing their usage count after their replacement by the
task being accessed.

What happens is that get_task_cred() can race with commit_creds():

	TASK_1			TASK_2			RCU_CLEANER
	-->get_task_cred(TASK_2)
	rcu_read_lock()
	__cred = __task_cred(TASK_2)
				-->commit_creds()
				old_cred = TASK_2->real_cred
				TASK_2->real_cred = ...
				put_cred(old_cred)
				  call_rcu(old_cred)
		[__cred->usage == 0]
	get_cred(__cred)
		[__cred->usage == 1]
	rcu_read_unlock()
							-->put_cred_rcu()
							[__cred->usage == 1]
							panic()

However, since a tasks credentials are generally not changed very often, we can
reasonably make use of a loop involving reading the creds pointer and using
atomic_inc_not_zero() to attempt to increment it if it hasn't already hit zero.

If successful, we can safely return the credentials in the knowledge that, even
if the task we're accessing has released them, they haven't gone to the RCU
cleanup code.

We then change task_state() in procfs to use get_task_cred() rather than
calling get_cred() on the result of __task_cred(), as that suffers from the
same problem.

Without this change, a BUG_ON in __put_cred() or in put_cred_rcu() can be
tripped when it is noticed that the usage count is not zero as it ought to be,
for example:

dc1eae256c ALSA: hda - Add a PC-beep workaround for ASUS P5-V
ASUS P5-V provides a SSID that unexpectedly matches with the value
compilant with Realtek's specification.  Thus the driver interprets
it badly, resulting in non-working PC beep.

This patch adds a white-list for such a case; a white-list of known
devices with working PC beep.

b92b361213 ARM: Add barriers to io{read,write}{8,16,32} accessors as well
The ioread/iowrite accessors also need barriers as they're used in
place of readl/writel et.al. in portable drivers.  Create __iormb()
and __iowmb() which are conditionally defined to be barriers dependent
on ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE, and always use these macros in the accessors.

79f64dbf68 ARM: 6273/1: Add barriers to the I/O accessors if ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE
When the coherent DMA buffers are mapped as Normal Non-cacheable
(ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE enabled), buffer accesses are no longer ordered
with Device memory accesses causing failures in device drivers that do
not use the mandatory memory barriers before starting a DMA transfer.
LKML discussions led to the conclusion that such barriers have to be
added to the I/O accessors:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/683509/focus=686153
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/46414
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/5250

This patch introduces a wmb() barrier to the write*() I/O accessors to
handle the situations where Normal Non-cacheable writes are still in the
processor (or L2 cache controller) write buffer before a DMA transfer
command is issued. For the read*() accessors, a rmb() is introduced
after the I/O to avoid speculative loads where the driver polls for a
DMA transfer ready bit.

This patch is in preparation for a subsequent patch which adds barriers
to the I/O accessors. Since the mandatory barriers may do an L2 cache
sync, this patch avoids a recursive call into l2x0_cache_sync() via the
write*() accessors and wmb() and a call into l2x0_cache_sync() with the
l2x0_lock held.
