The bug was that unix domain sockets use a pseduo packet for
connecting and accept uses that psudo packet to get the socket.
In the buggy seqpacket case we were allowing unconnected
sockets to call recvmsg and try to receive the pseudo packet.
That is always wrong and as of commit 7361c36c5 the pseudo
packet had become enough different from a normal packet
that the kernel started oopsing.
Do for seqpacket_recv what was done for seqpacket_send in 2.5
and only allow it on connected seqpacket sockets.

numa_cleanup_meminfo() trims each memblk between low (0) and
high (max_pfn) limits and discards empty ones. However, the
emptiness detection incorrectly used equality test. If the
start of a memblk is higher than max_pfn, it is empty but fails
the equality test and doesn't get discarded.
The condition triggers when max_pfn is lower than start of a
NUMA node and results in memory misconfiguration - leading to
WARN_ON()s and other funnies. The bug was discovered in devel
branch where 32bit too uses this code path for NUMA init. If a
node is above the addressing limit, max_pfn ends up lower than
the node triggering this problem.
The failure hasn't been observed on x86-64 but is still possible
with broken hardware e820/NUMA info. As the fix is very low
risk, it would be better to apply it even for 64bit.
Fix it by using >= instead of ==.

Older AMD K8 processors (Revisions A-E) are affected by erratum
400 (APIC timer interrupts don't occur in C states greater than
C1). This, for example, means that X86_FEATURE_ARAT flag should
not be set for these parts.
This addresses regression introduced by commit
b87cf80af3 ("x86, AMD: Set ARAT
feature on AMD processors") where the system may become
unresponsive until external interrupt (such as keyboard input)
occurs. This results, for example, in time not being reported
correctly, lack of progress on the system and other lockups.

Move the SMBus device ID definitions of recent devices from pci_ids.h
to the i2c-i801.c driver file. They don't have to be shared, as they
are clearly identified and only used in this driver. In the future,
such IDs will go to i2c-i801 directly. This will make adding support
for new devices much faster and easier, as it will avoid cross-
subsystem patch sets and merge conflicts.

It occured during some stress testing, in which the reporter was repeatedly
removing and modprobing the bnx2 module while doing various other random
operations on the bnx2 registered net device. Noting that this error occured on
a serdes based device, we noted that there were a few ethtool operations (most
notably self_test and set_phys_id) that have execution paths that lead into
bnx2_setup_serdes_phy. This function is notable because it executes a mod_timer
call, which starts the bp->timer running. Currently bnx2 is setup to assume
that this timer only nees to be stopped when bnx2_close or bnx2_suspend is
called. Since the above ethtool operations are not gated on the net device
having been opened however, that assumption is incorrect, and can lead to the
timer still running after the module has been removed, leading to the oops above
(as well as other simmilar oopses).
Fix the problem by ensuring that the timer is stopped when pci_device_unregister
is called.

If a rescuer and stop_machine() bringing down a CPU race with each
other, they may deadlock on non-preemptive kernel. The CPU won't
accept a new task, so the rescuer can't migrate to the target CPU,
while stop_machine() can't proceed because the rescuer is holding one
of the CPU retrying migration. GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is never cleared
and worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() retries indefinitely.
This problem can be reproduced semi reliably while the system is
entering suspend.

Some v4l drivers currently don't initialize their struct v4l2_subdev
with zeros, and this is a problem since some of the v4l2 code expects
this. One example is the addition of internal_ops in commit 45f6f84,
after that we are at risk of random oopses with these drivers when code
in v4l2_device_register_subdev tries to dereference sd->internal_ops->*,
as can be shown by the report at http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745213
and analysis of its crash at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/1/168
Use kzalloc within problematic drivers to ensure we have a zeroed struct
v4l2_subdev.

The imon_ir_change_protocol function gets called two different ways, one
way is from rc_register_device, for initial protocol selection/setup,
and the other is via a userspace-initiated protocol change request,
either by direct sysfs prodding or by something like ir-keytable.
In the rc_register_device case, the imon context lock is already held,
but when initiated from userspace, it is not, so we must acquire it,
prior to calling send_packet, which requires that the lock is held.
Without this change, there's an easily reproduceable deadlock when
another function calls send_packet (such as either of the display write
fops) after a userspace-initiated change_protocol.

Bump the driver version here so its easier to tell if people have this
locking fix or not, and also make locking during probe easier to follow.

The PCI SSID is 1025:031c and the codec SSID is 1025:031d,
so the driver mistakes this for a SKU value, but looking at
the numbers, this is obviously wrong.

Sedat and Bruno reported RCU stalls which turned out to be caused by
the following;
sched_init() calls init_rt_bandwidth() which calls hrtimer_init()
_BEFORE_ hrtimers_init() is called. While not entirely correct this
worked because hrtimer_init() only accessed statically initialized
data (hrtimer_bases.clock_base[CLOCK_MONOTONIC])
Commit e06383db9 (hrtimers: extend hrtimer base code to handle more
then 2 clockids) added an indirection to the hrtimer_bases.clock_base
lookup to avoid gap handling in the hot path. The table which is used
for the translataion from CLOCK_ID to HRTIMER_BASE index is
initialized at runtime in hrtimers_init(). So the early call of the
scheduler code translates CLOCK_MONOTONIC to HRTIMER_BASE_REALTIME.
Thus the rt_bandwith timer ends up on CLOCK_REALTIME. If the timer is
armed and the wall clock time is set (e.g. ntpdate in the early boot
process - which also gives the problem deterministic behaviour
i.e. magic recovery after N hours), then the timer ends up with an
expiry time far into the future. That breaks the RT throttler
mechanism as rt runtime is accumulated and never cleared, so the rt
throttler detects a false cpu hog condition and blocks all RT tasks
until the timer finally expires. That in turn stalls the RCU thread of
TINYRCU which leads to an huge amount of RCU callbacks piling up.
Make the translation table statically initialized, so we are back to
the status of <= 2.6.39.

pfault, dasd diag and virtio all use the same external interrupt number.
The respective interrupt handlers decide by the subcode if they are
meant to handle the interrupt.
Counting is currently done before looking at the subcode which means
each handler counts an interrupt even if it is not handling it.
Fix this by moving the kstat code after the code which looks at the
subcode.

There are a couple of places in this code where these values can wrap or
go negative, and that could potentially end up overflowing the buffer.
Ensure that that doesn't happen. Do all of the length calculation and
checks first, and only perform the memcpy after they pass.
Also, increase some stack variables to 32 bits to ensure that they don't
wrap without being detected.
Finally, change the error codes to be a bit more descriptive of any
problems detected. -EINVAL isn't very accurate.

It's possible that when we go to decode the string area in the
SESSION_SETUP response, that bytes_remaining will be 0. Decrementing it at
that point will mean that it can go "negative" and wrap. Check for a
bytes_remaining value of 0, and don't try to decode the string area if
that's the case.

The buffer length checks in this function depend on this value being a
signed data type, but 690c522fa converted it to an unsigned type.
Also, eliminate a problem with the null termination check in the same
function. cifs_strndup_from_ucs handles that situation correctly
already, and the existing check could potentially lead to a buffer
overrun since it increments bleft without checking to see whether it
falls off the end of the buffer.

- Remove coding standard violations reported by checkpatch.pl
- Delete comment about handling of conditional branches which is no
longer true.
- Delete comment at end of file which lists all ARM instructions. This
duplicates data available in the ARM ARM and seems like an
unnecessary maintenance burden to keep this up to date and accurate.

The instruction decoding in space_cccc_000x needs to reject probing of
instructions with undefined patterns as they may in future become
defined and then emulated faultily - as has already happened with the
SMC instruction.
This fix is achieved by testing for the instruction patterns we want to
probe and making the the default fall-through paths reject probes. This
also allows us to remove some explicit tests for instructions that we
wish to reject, as that is now the default action.
