Ondrej Zary e8055139d9 x86: Fix oops in identify_cpu() on CPUs without CPUID
Kernel is broken for x86 CPUs without CPUID since 2.6.28. It
crashes with NULL pointer dereference in identify_cpu():

766        generic_identify(c);
767
768-->     if (this_cpu->c_identify)
769               this_cpu->c_identify(c);

this_cpu is NULL. This is because it's only initialized in
get_cpu_vendor() function, which is not called if the CPU has
no CPUID instruction.

Christoph Hellwig a8914f3a6d xfs: fix spin_is_locked assert on uni-processor builds
Without SMP or preemption spin_is_locked always returns false,
so we can't do an assert with it.  Instead use assert_spin_locked,
which does the right thing on all builds.

Christoph Hellwig b89d4208de xfs: check for dinode realtime flag corruption
Ramon tested XFS with a modified version of fsfuzzer and hit a NULL
pointer dereference in __xfs_get_blocks due to the RT device target
pointer being NULL.

To fix this reject inode with the realtime bit set on a a filesystem
without an RT subvolume during inode read.

Christoph Hellwig 36fae17a64 xfs: switch to NOFS allocation under i_lock in xfs_buf_associate_memory
xfs_buf_associate_memory is used for setting up the spare buffer for the
log wrap case in xlog_sync which can happen under i_lock when called from
xfs_fsync. The i_lock mutex is taken in reclaim context so all allocations
under it must avoid recursions into the filesystem.  There are a couple
more uses of xfs_buf_associate_memory in the log recovery code that are
also affected by this, but I'd rather keep the code simple than passing on
a gfp_mask argument.  Longer term we should just stop requiring the memoery
allocation in xlog_sync by some smaller rework of the buffer layer.

Fenghua Yu bf2a4c7270 arch/ia64/Makefile: Remove -mtune=merced in IA64 kernel build
Between GCC version 3.4.0 and 4.3.3 (including 3.4.0 and 4.3.3), -mtune=merced
is implemented in GCC. Starting from 4.4.0, -mtune=merced is deprecated.

Even implemented in versions between 3.4.0 and 4.3.3, the -mtune=merced
feature has been broken in some of the versions. For example, GCC 4.1.2 reports
interanl tuning function errors during kernel building with -mtune=merced. Or
GCC Bugzilla 16130 reports another -mtune=merced issue on GCC 3.4.1.

So I would remove the -mtune=merced from IA64 kernel build. Without this option,
kernel on Merced will remain the same except losing an unstable and out-of-date
performance tunning feature.

Since GCC version 3.4.0, -mtune=mckinley has been implemented. The
-mtune=mckinley option functions the same as mtune=itanium2. And mtune=itanium2
is the default option. So we don't need to add mtune=mckinley either since its
been the default option in any GCC version which implements this option.

ALC269 and ALC861-VD parsers override the ADC definitions
unconditionally without checking the spec definition.  This causes
the problem when any inconsistent ADC is set up in the device quirk

added a warning message printed for platform drivers that use the
legacy PM callbacks rather than struct dev_pm_ops.  Unfortunately,
this resulted in some confusion and made some people try to convert
drivers by replacing the old callbacks with struct dev_pm_ops in
automatic way, which generally is not a good idea.

Remove the platform device runtime dev_pm_ops warning for now,

Linus Torvalds 85dfd81dc5 pty: fix data loss when stopped (^S/^Q)
Commit d945cb9cc ("pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering
logic") dropped the test for 'tty->stopped' in pty_write_room(), which
then causes the n_tty line discipline thing to not throttle the data
properly when the tty is stopped.

So instead of pausing the write due to the tty being stopped, the ldisc
layer would go ahead and push it down to the pty.  The pty write()
routine would then refuse to take the data (because it _did_ check
'stopped'), and the data wouldn't actually be written.

This whole stopped test should eventually be moved into the tty ldisc
layer rather than have low-level tty drivers care about these things,
but right now the fix is to just re-instate the missing pty 'stopped'
handling.

In OCFS2, allocator locks rank above transaction start. Thus we
cannot extend quota file from inside a transaction less we could
deadlock.

We solve the problem by starting transaction not already in
ocfs2_acquire_dquot() but only in ocfs2_local_read_dquot() and
ocfs2_global_read_dquot() and we allocate blocks to quota files before starting
the transaction.  In case we crash, quota files will just have a few blocks
more but that's no problem since we just use them next time we extend the
quota file.

Linus Torvalds b6e61eef4f x86: Fix serialization in pit_expect_msb()
Wei Chong Tan reported a fast-PIT-calibration corner-case:

| pit_expect_msb() is vulnerable to SMI disturbance corner case
| in some platforms which causes /proc/cpuinfo to show wrong
| CPU MHz value when quick_pit_calibrate() jumps to success
| section.

I think that the real issue isn't even an SMI - but the fact
that in the very last iteration of the loop, there's no
serializing instruction _after_ the last 'rdtsc'. So even in
the absense of SMI's, we do have a situation where the cycle
counter was read without proper serialization.

The last check should be done outside the outer loop, since
_inside_ the outer loop, we'll be testing that the PIT has
the right MSB value has the right value in the next iteration.

So only the _last_ iteration is special, because that's the one
that will not check the PIT MSB value any more, and because the
final 'get_cycles()' isn't serialized.

In other words:

 - I'd like to move the PIT MSB check to after the last
   iteration, rather than in every iteration

 - I think we should comment on the fact that it's also a
   serializing instruction and so 'fences in' the TSC read.

Here's a suggested replacement.

Frederic Weisbecker 304703aba3 perf_counter: Subtract the buffer size field from the event record size
We compute the perf raw sample size by aligning the raw ftrace
event size plus the buffer size field itself. We do that
instead of aligning only the perf raw sample size, so that we
might economize some in some cases.

But this buffer size field is not stored in the perf raw
sample, we must then substract its size from the buffer once we
computed the alignment unless we may get a useless u32 field in
the buffer.

Oleg Nesterov 704b836cbf mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec
The problem is minor, but without ->cred_guard_mutex held we can race
with exec() and get the new ->mm but check old creds.

Now we do not need to re-check task->mm after ptrace_may_access(), it
can't be changed to the new mm under us.

Strictly speaking, this also fixes another very minor problem. Unless
security check fails or the task exits mm_for_maps() should never
return NULL, the caller should get either old or new ->mm.
