Fix the locking of signal->tty.
Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used
by most other members of ->signal/->sighand. And unless we are 'current'
or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway.
(NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules)
Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding
tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid. Otherwise the lifetime of ttys
are governed by their open file handles. This leaves some holes for tty
access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access).
It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing.
(NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to
be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think
it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info
invocations)

The IPMI BT subdriver has been patched to survive "long busy" timeouts seen
during firmware upgrades and resets. The patch never returns the HOSED state,
synthesizes response messages with meaningful completion codes, and recovers
gracefully when the hardware finishes the long busy. The subdriver now issues
a "Get BT Capabilities" command and properly uses those results. More
informative completion codes are returned on error from transaction starts;
this logic was propogated to the KCS and SMIC subdrivers. Finally, indent and
other style quirks were normalized.

Clean up several code points in which the return code from misc_register is
not handled properly.
Several modules failed to deregister various hooks when misc_register fails,
and this patch cleans them up. Also there are a few modules that legitimately
don't care about the failure status of misc register. These drivers however
unilaterally call misc_deregister on module unload.
Since misc_register doesn't initialize the list_head in the init_routine if it
fails, the deregister operation is at risk for oopsing when list_del is
called. The initial solution was to manually init the list in the miscdev
structure in each of those modules, but the consensus in this thread was to
consolodate and do that universally inside misc_register.

Not all graphic page remappers support physical addresses over the 4GB
mark for remapping, so while some do (the AMD64 GART always did, and I
just fixed the i965 to do so properly), we're safest off just forcing
GFP_DMA32 allocations to make sure graphics pages get allocated in the
low 32-bit address space by default.
AGP sub-drivers that really care, and can do better, could just choose
to implement their own allocator (or we could add another "64-bit safe"
default allocator for their use), but quite frankly, you're not likely
to care in practice.
So for now, this trivial change means that we won't be allocating pages
that we can't map correctly by mistake on x86-64.
[ On traditional 32-bit x86, this could never happen, because GFP_KERNEL
would never allocate any highmem memory anyway ]

Also simplify/clean-up the i965 case for the aperture sizing by just
returning the fixed 512kB size from "fetch_size()". We don't really
care that not all of the aperture may be visible - the only thing that
cares about the aperture size is the Intel "stolen memory" calculation,
which depends on the fixed size.

Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().
In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

Separate delayable work items from non-delayable work items be splitting them
into a separate structure (delayed_work), which incorporates a work_struct and
the timer_list removed from work_struct.
The work_struct struct is huge, and this limits it's usefulness. On a 64-bit
architecture it's nearly 100 bytes in size. This reduces that by half for the
non-delayable type of event.

a number of small patches:
- include notifier.h include file
- re-arrange prototype functions
- remove =0 initializations
- change printk logging levels to what's used in other drivers
- /dev/watchdog is a VFS so use nonseekable_open
- Style: Instead of "if (constant op function_or_variable)"
we prefer "if (function_or_variable op constant)"
- arg is a __user pointer
- use MAX_TIMEOUT_SECONDS instead of 32 in WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT

port is dereferenced even if it is NULL. Dereference it _after_ the
check if (!port)... Thanks Eric <ef87@yahoo.com> for reporting this.

Fix MSPEC driver to build for non SN2 enabled configs as the driver should
work in cached and uncached modes (no fetchop) on these systems. In
addition make MSPEC select IA64_UNCACHED_ALLOCATOR, which is required for
it and move it to arch/ia64/Kconfig to avoid warnings on non ia64
architectures running allmodconfig. Once the Kconfig code is fixed, we can
move it back.

A wrong function was being used to free a list; this fixes the problem.
Otherwise, an oops at unload time was possible. But not likely, since you
can't have any users when you unload the modules and it is very hard to get
messages into this queue without users.

It looks like device registration in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c was
cleaned up and a small error was made when setting the class_mask. The fix
is simple as the correct mask value is defined in the code but is not used.

only allow specific type-3 packets to pass the verifier instead of all for r100/r200 as others might be unsafe (r300 already does this), and add checking for these we need but aren't safe. Check the RADEON_CP_INDX_BUFFER packet on both r200 and r300 as it isn't safe neither.
