5ddfe9691c [PATCH] md: check bio address after mapping through partitions.
Partitions are not limited to live within a device.  So we should range
check after partition mapping.

Note that 'maxsector' was being used for two different things.  I have
split off the second usage into 'old_sector' so that maxsector can be still
be used for it's primary usage later in the function.

4a279ff1ea [PATCH] taskstats: fix sub-threads accounting
If there are no listeners, taskstats_exit_send() just returns because
taskstats_exit_alloc() didn't allocate *tidstats.  This is wrong, each
sub-thread should do fill_tgid_exit() on exit, otherwise its ->delays is
not recorded in ->signal->stats and lost.

Q: We don't send TASKSTATS_TYPE_AGGR_TGID when single-threaded process
exits.  Is it good?  How can the listener figure out that it was actually a
process exit, not sub-thread?

Fix a small memory leak in ubd_config, and clearify the confusion which lead
to it.

Then, some little changes not affecting operations -
* move init functions together,
* add a comment about a potential problem in case of some evolution in the block layer,
* mark all initcalls as static __init functions
* mark an used once little function as inline
* document that mconsole methods are all called in process context (was
  triggered when checking ubd mconsole methods).

2fe30a34a1 [PATCH] uml ubd driver: convert do_ubd to a boolean variable
do_ubd is actually just a boolean variable - the way it is used currently is a
leftover from the old 2.4 block layer, but it is still used; its use is
suspicious, but removing it would be too intrusive for now and needs more
thinking.

33f775eea1 [PATCH] uml ubd driver: ubd_io_lock usage fixup
Add some comments about requirements for ubd_io_lock and expand its use.

When an irq signals that the "controller" (i.e.  another thread on the host,
which does the actual requests and is the only one blocked on I/O on the host)
has done some work, we call again the request function ourselves
(do_ubd_request).

We now do that with ubd_io_lock held - that's useful to protect against
concurrent calls to elv_next_request and so on.

XXX: Maybe we shouldn't call at all the request function.  Input needed on
this.  Are we supposed to plug and unplug the queue?  That code "indirectly"
does that by setting a flag, called do_ubd, which makes the request function
return (it's a residual of 2.4 block layer interface).

Meanwhile, however, merge this patch, which improves things.

d7fb2c3865 [PATCH] uml ubd driver: change ubd_lock to be a mutex
This lock protects ubd setup and teardown, so is only used in process context;
beyond that, during such setup memory allocations must be performed and some
generic functions which can sleep must be called (such as add_disk()).  So the
only correct solution is to make it a mutex instead of a spin_lock.  No other
change is done - this lock must be acquired in different places but it's done
afterwards.

To rethink locking, I needed to understand well what each function does.
While doing this I renamed some:

* ubd_close -> ubd_close_dev (since it pairs with ubd_open_dev)

* ubd_new_disk -> ubd_disk_register (it handles registration with the block
  layer - one hopes this makes clearer the difference with ubd_add())

df6c0cd9a8 [PATCH] clean up add_bd_holder()
add_bd_holder() is called from bd_claim_by_kobject to put a given struct
bd_holder in the list if there is no matching entry.

There are 3 possible results of add_bd_holder():
  1. there is no matching entry and add the given one to the list
  2. there is matching entry, so just increment reference count of
     the existing one
  3. something failed during its course

1 and 2 are successful cases.  But for case 2, someone has to free the
unused struct bd_holder.

The current code frees it inside of add_bd_holder and returns same value
0 for both cases 1 and 2.  However, it's natural and less error-prone if
caller frees it since it's allocated by the caller.

d6740df98e [PATCH] sunrpc: fix refcounting problems in rpc servers
A recent patch fixed a problem which would occur when the refcount on an
auth_domain reached zero.  This problem has not been reported in practice
despite existing in two major kernel releases because the refcount can
never reach zero.

This patch fixes the problems that stop the refcount reaching zero.

1/ We were adding to the refcount when inserting in the hash table,
   but only removing from the hashtable when the refcount reached zero.
   Obviously it never would.  So don't count the implied reference of
   being in the hash table.

2/ There are two paths on which a socket can be destroyed.  One called
   svcauth_unix_info_release().  The other didn't.  So when the other was
   taken, we can lose a reference to an ip_map which in-turn holds a
   reference to an auth_domain

   So unify the exit paths into svc_sock_put.  This highlights the fact
   that svc_delete_socket has slightly odd semantics - it does not drop
   a reference but probably should.  Fixing this need a bit more
   thought and testing.

d45e44d4be [PATCH] uml: fix compilation options for USER_OBJS
From: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>, Paolo Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Make sure that when compiling USER_OBJS the correct compilation options are
passed; since they are compiled with USER_CFLAGS which is derived from
CFLAGS, make sure it is a recursively evaluated variable, so that changes
to CFLAGS done afterwards the inclusion of arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile are
reflected in USER_CFLAGS.

For instance, without this patch userspace objects are never compiled with
debug info active.

b428b51ed9 [PATCH] Fix "Remove the use of _syscallX macros in UML"
Fix commit 5f4c6bc1f3: it spits out warnings
about missing syscall prototype (it is in <unistd.h>) and it does not
recognize that two uses of _syscallX are to be resolved against kernel
headers in the source tree, not against _syscallX; they in fact do not
compile and would not work anyway.

If _syscallX macros will be removed from the kernel tree altogether, the
only reasonable solution for that piece of code is switching to open-coded
inline assembly (it's remapping the whole executable from memory, except
the page containing this code).
