98310e581e cramfs: propagate uncompression errors
Decompression errors can arise due to corruption of compressed blocks on
flash or in memory.  This patch propagates errors detected during
decompression back to the block layer.

1bc4faa59b sgi-gru: remove SGI_GRU as a valid config option for ia64 configs with SGI_UV
Some current configs turn on GRU for ia64.  The GRU code does not
correctly load on boot on ia64 (GRU does continue to work for x86-64), so
changing the IA64 Kconfig to not select GRU on ia64 configs for now until
we have time to fix.

50db9d8e4c parport: netmos 9845 & 9855 1P4S fixes
netmos serial/parallel adapters come in different flavour differing only
by the number of parallel and serial ports, which are encoded in the
subdevice ID.

Last fix of Christian Pellegrin for 9855 2P2S broke support for 9855 1P4S,
and works only by side-effect for the first parallel port of a 2P2S, as
this first parallel port is found by reading the second addr entry of
(struct parport_pc_pci) cards[netmos_9855], which is not initialized, and
hence has value 0, which happens to be the BAR of the first parallel port.

netmos_9xx5_combo entry in (struct parport_pc_pci) cards[], which is used
for a 9845 1P4S must also be fixed for the parallel port support when
there are 4 serial ports because this entry currently gives 2 as BAR index
for the parallel port.  Actually, in this case, BAR 2 is the 3rd serial
port while the parallel port is at BAR 4.

I fixed 9845 1P4S and 9855 1P4S support, while preserving 9855 2P2S support,

- by creating a netmos_9855_2p entry and using it for 9855 boards with 2
  parallel ports : 9855 2P2S and 9855 2P0S boards,

- and by allowing netmos_parallel_init to change not only the number of
  parallel ports (0 or 1), but making it also change the BAR index of the
  parallel port when the serial ports are before the parallel port.

PS: the netmos_9855_2p entry in (struct pciserial_board)
pci_parport_serial_boards[] is needed because netmos_parallel_init has no
clean way to replace FL_BASE2 by FL_BASE4 in the description of the serial
ports in function of the number of parallel ports on the card.

Tested with 9845 1P4S, 9855 1P4S and 9855 2P2S boards.

dba7a77c0e edac: new ppc4xx driver module
This adds support for an EDAC memory controller adaptation driver for the
"ibm,sdram-4xx-ddr2" ECC controller realized in the AMCC PowerPC 405EX[r].

At present, this driver has been developed and tested against the
controller realization in the AMCC PPC405EX[r] on the AMCC Kilauea and
Haleakala boards (256 MiB w/o ECC memory soldered onto the board) and a
proprietary board based on those designs (128 MiB ECC memory, also
soldered onto the board).

In the future, dynamic feature detection and handling needs to be added
for the other realizations of this controller found in the 440SP, 440SPe,
460EX, 460GT and 460SX.

Eventually, this driver will likely be evolved and adapted to the above
variant realizations of this controller as well as broken apart to handle
the other known ECC-capable controllers prevalent in other PPC4xx
processors:

  - IBM SDRAM (405GP, 405CR and 405EP) "ibm,sdram-4xx"
  - IBM DDR1 (440GP, 440GX, 440EP and 440GR) "ibm,sdram-4xx-ddr"
  - Denali DDR1/DDR2 (440EPX and 440GRX) "denali,sdram-4xx-ddr2"

1a2ad21128 nbd: add locking to nbd_ioctl
The code was written to rely on big kernel lock to protect it from races.
It mostly works when interface is not abused.

So this uses tx_lock to protect data structures from concurrent use
between ioctl and worker threads.

Next step will be moving from ioctl to unlocked_ioctl.

1b0f7ffd0e pids: kill signal_struct-> __pgrp/__session and friends
We are wasting 2 words in signal_struct without any reason to implement
task_pgrp_nr() and task_session_nr().

task_session_nr() has no callers since
2e2ba22ea4, we can remove it.

task_pgrp_nr() is still (I believe wrongly) used in fs/autofsX and
fs/coda.

This patch reimplements task_pgrp_nr() via task_pgrp_nr_ns(), and kills
__pgrp/__session and the related helpers.

The change in drivers/char/tty_io.c is cosmetic, but hopefully makes sense
anyway.

52ee2dfdd4 pids: refactor vnr/nr_ns helpers to make them safe
Inho, the safety rules for vnr/nr_ns helpers are horrible and buggy.

task_pid_nr_ns(task) needs rcu/tasklist depending on task == current.

As for "special" pids, vnr/nr_ns helpers always need rcu.  However, if
task != current, they are unsafe even under rcu lock, we can't trust
task->group_leader without the special checks.

And almost every helper has a callsite which needs a fix.

Also, it is a bit annoying that the implementations of, say,
task_pgrp_vnr() and task_pgrp_nr_ns() are not "symmetrical".

This patch introduces the new helper, __task_pid_nr_ns(), which is always
safe to use, and turns all other helpers into the trivial wrappers.

After this I'll send another patch which converts task_tgid_xxx() as well,
they're are a bit special.

2ae448efc8 pids: improve get_task_pid() to fix the unsafe sys_wait4()->task_pgrp()
sys_wait4() does get_pid(task_pgrp(current)), this is not safe.  We can
add rcu lock/unlock around, but we already have get_task_pid() which can
be improved to handle the special pids in more reliable manner.

6dda81f438 pids: document task_pgrp/task_session is not safe without tasklist/rcu
Even if task == current, it is not safe to dereference the result of
task_pgrp/task_session.  We can race with another thread which changes the
special pid via setpgid/setsid.

Document this.  The next 2 patches give an example of the unsafe usage, we
have more bad users.

303d379c54 hpet: fix the possibility of insane return value of hpet_calibrate() against SMI
hpet_calibrate() has a possibility of miss-calibration due to SMI.  If SMI
interrupts in the while loop of calibration, then return value will be
big.  This change calibrates until stabilizing by the return value with a
small value.

11dea19009 proc_sysctl: use CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL around ipc and utsname proc_handlers
As pointed out by Cedric Le Goater (in response to Alexey's original
comment wrt mqns), ipc_sysctl.c and utsname_sysctl.c are using
CONFIG_PROC_FS, not CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL, to determine whether to define
the proc_handlers.  Change that.

e562aebc6c ipc: make shm_get_stat() more robust
shm_get_stat() assumes idr_find(&shm_ids(ns).ipcs_idr) returns "struct
shmid_kernel *"; all other callers assume that it returns "struct
kern_ipc_perm *".  This works because "struct kern_ipc_perm" is currently
the first member of "struct shmid_kernel", but it would be better to use
container_of() to prevent future breakage.

2355b70fd5 workqueue: avoid recursion in run_workqueue()
1) lockdep will complain when run_workqueue() performs recursion.

2) The recursive implementation of run_workqueue() means that
   flush_workqueue() and its documentation are inconsistent.  This may
   hide deadlocks and other bugs.

3) The recursion in run_workqueue() will poison cwq->current_work, but
   flush_work() and __cancel_work_timer(), etcetera need a reliable
   cwq->current_work.

1ee1184485 ptrace_untrace: fix the SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED check
This bug is ancient too. ptrace_untrace() must not resume the task
if the group stop in progress, we should set TASK_STOPPED instead.

Unfortunately, we still have problems here:

	- if the process/thread was traced, SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED
	  does not necessary means this thread group is stopped.

	- ptrace breaks the bookkeeping of ->group_stop_count.
