36676bcbf9 [PATCH] Fix oops in sysfs_hash_and_remove_file()
The problem arises if an entity in sysfs is created and removed without
ever having been made completely visible.  In SCSI this is triggered by
removing a device while it's initialising.

The problem appears to be that because it was never made visible in sysfs,
the sysfs dentry has a null d_inode which oopses when a reference is made
to it.  The solution is simply to check d_inode and assume the object was
never made visible (and thus doesn't need deleting) if it's NULL.

(akpm: possibly a stopgap for 2.6.13 scsi problems.  May not be the
long-term fix)

485761bd6a [PATCH] x86_64: Tell VM about holes in nodes
Some nodes can have large holes on x86-64.

This fixes problems with the VM allowing too many dirty pages because it
overestimates the number of available RAM in a node.  In extreme cases you
can end up with all RAM filled with dirty pages which can lead to deadlocks
and other nasty behaviour.

This patch just tells the VM about the known holes from e820.  Reserved
(like the kernel text or mem_map) is still not taken into account, but that
should be only a few percent error now.

Small detail is that the flat setup uses the NUMA free_area_init_node() now
too because it offers more flexibility.

(akpm: lotsa thanks to Martin for working this problem out)

32818c2eb6 [PATCH] ppc64: Fix issue with gcc 4.0 compiled kernels
I recently had a BUG_ON() go off spuriously on a gcc 4.0 compiled kernel.
It turns out gcc-4.0 was removing a sign extension while earlier gcc
versions would not.  Thinking this to be a compiler bug, I submitted a
report:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23422

It turns out we need to cast the input in order to tell gcc to sign extend
it.

d634cc15e8 [PATCH] Fix oops in fs/locks.c on close of file with pending locks
The recent change to locks_remove_flock code in fs/locks.c changes how
byte range locks are removed from closing files, which shows up a bug in
cifs.

The assumption in the cifs code was that the close call sent to the
server would remove any pending locks on the server on this file, but
that is no longer safe as the fs/locks.c code on the client wants unlock
of 0 to PATH_MAX to remove all locks (at least from this client, it is
not possible AFAIK to remove all locks from other clients made to the
server copy of the file).

Note that cifs locks are different from posix locks - and it is not
possible to map posix locks perfectly on the wire yet, due to
restrictions of the cifs network protocol, even to Samba without adding
a new request type to the network protocol (which we plan to do for
Samba 3.0.21 within a few months), but the local client will have the
correct, posix view, of the lock in most cases.

The correct fix for cifs for this would involve a bigger change than I
would like to do this late in the 2.6.13-rc cycle - and would involve
cifs keeping track of all unmerged (uncoalesced) byte range locks for
each remote inode and scanning that list to remove locks that intersect
or fall wholly within the range - locks that intersect may have to be
reaquired with the smaller, remaining range.

This was a fall-out of switching x86 over to the generic PCI resource

d10689b68a [PATCH] cpu_exclusive sched domains on partial nodes temp fix
This keeps the kernel/cpuset.c routine update_cpu_domains() from
invoking the sched.c routine partition_sched_domains() if the cpuset in
question doesn't fall on node boundaries.

I have boot tested this on an SN2, and with the help of a couple of ad
hoc printk's, determined that it does indeed avoid calling the
partition_sched_domains() routine on partial nodes.

I did not directly verify that this avoids setting up bogus sched
domains or avoids the oops that Hawkes saw.

This patch imposes a silent artificial constraint on which cpusets can
be used to define dynamic sched domains.

This patch should allow proceeding with this new feature in 2.6.13 for
the configurations in which it is useful (node alligned sched domains)
while avoiding trying to setup sched domains in the less useful cases
that can cause the kernel corruption and oops.

d3813fcf10 [PATCH] x86_64: Don't oops at boot when empty Opteron node has IO
The code to detect IO links on Opteron would not check
if the node had actually memory. This could lead to pci_bus_to_node
returning an invalid node, which might cause crashes later
when dma_alloc_coherent passes it to page_alloc_node().

The bug has been there forever but for some reason
it is causing now crashes.

2bbfb16bf3 [PATCH] usbnet oops fix
There's a "return the wrong SKB" error in the GL620A cable minidriver
(for "usbnet") which can oops.  This would not appear when talking
Linux-to-Linux, only Linux-to-Windows (for recent Linuxes).

b1daec3089 [PATCH] i386: fix incorrect FP signal code
i386 floating-point exception handling has a bug that can cause error
code 0 to be sent instead of the proper code during signal delivery.

This is caused by unconditionally checking the IS and c1 bits from the
FPU status word when they are not always relevant.  The IS bit tells
whether an exception is a stack fault and is only relevant when the
exception is IE (invalid operation.) The C1 bit determines whether a
stack fault is overflow or underflow and is only relevant when IS and IE
are set.
