1aa9b4b9bc [PATCH] revert "retries in ext3_prepare_write() violate ordering requirements"
Revert e92a4d595b.

Dmitry points out

"When we block_prepare_write() failed while ext3_prepare_write() we jump to
 "failure" label and call ext3_prepare_failure() witch search last mapped bh
 and invoke commit_write untill it.  This is wrong!!  because some bh from
 begining to the last mapped bh may be not uptodate.  As a result we commit to
 disk not uptodate page content witch contains garbage from previous usage."

and

"Unexpected file size increasing."

   Call trace the same as it was in first issue but result is different.
   For example we have file with i_size is zero.  we want write two blocks ,
   but fs has only one free block.

   ->ext3_prepare_write(...from == 0, to == 2048)
     retry:
     ->block_prepare_write() == -ENOSPC# we failed but allocated one block here.
     ->ext3_prepare_failure()
       ->commit_write( from == 0, to == 1024) # after this i_size becomes 1024 :)
     if (ret == -ENOSPC && ext3_should_retry_alloc(inode->i_sb, &retries))
        goto retry;

   Finally when all retries will be spended ext3_prepare_failure return
   -ENOSPC, but i_size was increased and later block trimm procedures can't
   help here.

We don't appear to have the horsepower to fix these issues, so let's put
things back the way they were for now.

2400ff77e7 [PATCH] CPUSETS: add mems to basic usage documentation
It seems that there must be at least one node in mems and at least one CPU
in cpus in order to be able to assign tasks to a cpuset.  This makes sense.
 And I think it would also make sense to include a mems setting in the
basic usage section of the documentation.

I also wonder if something logged to dmsg, explaining why a write failed,
would be a good enhancement.  I ended up having rummage arround in cpuset.c
in order to work out why my configuration was failing.

10fa1155a2 [PATCH] uml: fix unreasonably long udelay
Currently we have a confused udelay implementation.

* __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64
* our implementation requires usecs as arg
* it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h

Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some
x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper.

To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed -
that's why UML seems to work most times.  Fix this with a simple udelay
implementation.

398e692fd5 [ARM] 4298/1: fix memory barriers for DMA coherent and SMP platforms
This patch:
- Switches mb/rmb/wmb back to being full-blown DMBs on ARM SMP systems,
  since mb/rmb/wmb are required to order Normal memory accesses as well.
- Enables the use of DMB and ISB on XSC3 (which is an ARMv5TE ISA core
  but conforms to the ARMv6 memory ordering model and supports the
  various ARMv6 barriers.)
- Makes DMA coherent platforms (only ixp23xx at the moment) map
  mb/rmb/wmb to dmb(), as on DMA coherent platforms, DMA consistent
  mappings are done as Normal mappings, which are weakly ordered.

9a4d93d49d [ARM] 4295/2: Fix error-handling in pxaficp_ir.c (version 2)
This patch addresses the following issues with the pxa2xx FIr driver:

1. increment overrun error counter and not frame error counter on ICSR1_ROR bit set in ICSR1.
2. drop frames reported with the frame error from the IC.
3. when resetting the receiver and preparing it for the next DMA in pxa_irda_fir_irq() actually clear the Rx FIFO. See description in Table 11-2 in PXA270 Developer's Manual of the RXE bit.

Correction added in version 2: clearing the IC Rx FIFO also has to be done in pxa_irda_fir_dma_tx_irq()

c21b1e4d9b [PATCH] kbuild: fix dependency generation
Commit 2e3646e51b changed the way the
split config tree is built, but failed to also adjust fixdep accordingly
- if changing a config option from or to m, files referencing the
respective CONFIG_..._MODULE (but not the corresponding CONFIG_...)
didn't get rebuilt.

The problem is that trisate symbol are represent with three different
symbols:
    SYMBOL=n => no symbol defined
    SYMBOL=y => CONFIG_SYMBOL defined to '1'
    SYMBOL=m => CONFIG_SYMBOL_MODULE defined to '1'

But conf_split_config do not distingush between the =y and =m case, so
only the =y case is honoured.

This is fixed in fixdep so when a CONFIG symbol with _MODULE is found we
skip that part and only look for the CONFIG_SYMBOL version.

83d2cd3de4 [IA64] bugfix stack layout upside-down
ia64 expects following vm layout:

== low memory
[register-stack grows up]
[memory-stack grows down]
== high memory

But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the
maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the
stack *might* start.  Stack randomization will result in the
memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the
user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can
end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if
you were very unlucky right on top of it!).

Fix: Calculate the base address for the register stack starting
from the actual address of the memory stack.

c01003c205 [IFB]: Fix crash on input device removal
The input_device pointer is not refcounted, which means the device may
disappear while packets are queued, causing a crash when ifb passes packets
with a stale skb->dev pointer to netif_rx().

Fix by storing the interface index instead and do a lookup where neccessary.

a76c0b9763 [PATCH] mm: fix xip issue with /dev/zero
Fix the bug, that reading into xip mapping from /dev/zero fills the user
page table with ZERO_PAGE() entries.  Later on, xip cannot tell which pages
have been ZERO_PAGE() filled by access to a sparse mapping, and which ones
origin from /dev/zero.  It will unmap ZERO_PAGE from all mappings when
filling the sparse hole with data.  xip does now use its own zeroed page
for its sparse mappings.  Please apply.

90ed52ebe4 [PATCH] holepunch: fix mmap_sem i_mutex deadlock
sys_madvise has down_write of mmap_sem, then madvise_remove calls
vmtruncate_range which takes i_mutex and i_alloc_sem: no, we can easily devise
deadlocks from that ordering.

madvise_remove drop mmap_sem while calling vmtruncate_range: luckily, since
madvise_remove doesn't split or merge vmas, it's easy to handle this case with
a NULL prev, without restructuring sys_madvise.  (Though sad to retake
mmap_sem when it's unlikely to be needed, and certainly down_read is
sufficient for MADV_REMOVE, unlike the other madvices.)
