9c312058b2 Avoid false positive warnings in kmap_atomic_prot() with DEBUG_HIGHMEM
I believe http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10318 is a false
positive.  There's no way in which networking will be using highmem pages
here, so it won't be taking the KM_USER0 kmap slot, so there's no point in
performing these checks.

1f71f50342 RDMA/cxgb3: Program hardware IRD with correct value
Because of a typo in iwch_accept_cr(), the cxgb3 connection handling
code programs the hardware IRD (incoming RDMA read queue depth) with
the value that is passed in for the ORD (outgoing RDMA read queue
depth).  In particular this means that if an application passes in IRD
> 0 and ORD = 0 (which is a completely sane and valid thing to do for
an app that expects only incoming RDMA read requests), then the
hardware will end up programmed with IRD = 0 and the app will fail in
a mysterious way.

Fix this by using "ep->ird" instead of "ep->ord" in the intended place.

Revert commit 1192aeb957 ("ACPI:
drivers/acpi: elide a non-zero test on a result that is never 0")
because it turns out that thermal_cooling_device_register() does
actually return NULL if CONFIG_THERMAL is turned off (then the routine
turns into a dummy inline routine in the header files that returns NULL
unconditionally).

This was found with randconfig testing, causing a crash during bootup:

a2ceff5e55 [POWERPC] Fix missed hardware breakpoints across multiple threads
There is a bug in the powerpc DABR (data access breakpoint) handling,
which can result in us missing breakpoints if several threads are trying
to break on the same address.

The circumstances are that do_page_fault() calls do_dabr(), this clears
the DABR (sets it to 0) and sets up the signal which will report to
userspace that the DABR was hit. The do_signal() code will restore the DABR
value on the way out to userspace.

If we reschedule before calling do_signal(), __switch_to() will check the
cached DABR value and compare it to the new thread's value, if they match
we don't set the DABR in hardware.

So if two threads have the same DABR value, and we schedule from one to
the other after taking the interrupt for the first thread hitting the DABR,
the second thread will run without the DABR set in hardware.

The cleanest fix is to move the cache update into set_dabr(), that way we
can't forget to do it.

2e8fe719b5 xen: fix UP setup of shared_info
We need to set up the shared_info pointer once we've mapped the real
shared_info into its fixmap slot.  That needs to happen once the general
pagetable setup has been done.  Previously, the UP shared_info was set
up one in xen_start_kernel, but that was left pointing to the dummy
shared info.  Unfortunately there's no really good place to do a later
setup of the shared_info in UP, so just do it once the pagetable setup
has been done.

04c44a080d xen: fix RMW when unmasking events
xen_irq_enable_direct and xen_sysexit were using "andw $0x00ff,
XEN_vcpu_info_pending(vcpu)" to unmask events and test for pending ones
in one instuction.

Unfortunately, the pending flag must be modified with a locked operation
since it can be set by another CPU, and the unlocked form of this
operation was causing the pending flag to get lost, allowing the processor
to return to usermode with pending events and ultimately deadlock.

The simple fix would be to make it a locked operation, but that's rather
costly and unnecessary.  The fix here is to split the mask-clearing and
pending-testing into two instructions; the interrupt window between
them is of no concern because either way pending or new events will
be processed.

This should fix lingering bugs in using direct vcpu structure access too.

732c8bd590 [IPSEC]: Fix BEET output
The IPv6 BEET output function is incorrectly including the inner
header in the payload to be protected.  This causes a crash as
the packet doesn't actually have that many bytes for a second
header.

The IPv4 BEET output on the other hand is broken when it comes
to handling an inner IPv6 header since it always assumes an
inner IPv4 header.

This patch fixes both by making sure that neither BEET output
function touches the inner header at all.  All access is now
done through the protocol-independent cb structure.  Two new
attributes are added to make this work, the IP header length

This was tracked down to a potential livelock in
return_unused_surplus_hugepages().  In the case where we have surplus
pages on some node, but no free pages on the same node, we may never
break out of the loop. To avoid this livelock, terminate the search if
we iterate a number of times equal to the number of online nodes without
freeing a page.

Thanks to Andy Whitcroft and Adam Litke for helping with debugging and
the patch.

a1de09195b hugetlb: indicate surplus huge page counts in per-node meminfo
Currently we show the surplus hugetlb pool state in /proc/meminfo, but
not in the per-node meminfo files, even though we track the information
on a per-node basis. Printing it there can help track down dynamic pool
bugs including the one in the follow-on patch.

d546b67a94 x86: fix performance drop for glx
fix the 3D performance drop reported at:

   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10328

fb drivers are using ioremap()/ioremap_nocache(), followed by mtrr_add with
WC attribute. Recent changes in page attribute code made both
ioremap()/ioremap_nocache() mappings as UC (instead of previous UC-). This
breaks the graphics performance, as the effective memory type is UC instead
of expected WC.

The correct way to fix this is to add ioremap_wc() (which uses UC- in the
absence of PAT kernel support and WC with PAT) and change all the
fb drivers to use this new ioremap_wc() API.

We can take this correct and longer route for post 2.6.25. For now,
revert back to the UC- behavior for ioremap/ioremap_nocache.

76c324182b x86: fix trim mtrr not to setup_memory two times
we could call find_max_pfn() directly instead of setup_memory() to get
max_pfn needed for mtrr trimming.

otherwise setup_memory() is called two times... that is duplicated...

[ mingo@elte.hu: both Thomas and me simulated a double call to
  setup_bootmem_allocator() and can confirm that it is a real bug
  which can hang in certain configs. It's not been reported yet but
  that is probably due to the relatively scarce nature of
  MTRR-trimming systems. ]

Er, yeah.  The patch below should fix it.  This should probably go into
2.6.25.

Oops, EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL wasn't being declared due to this header

c6e8256a7b x86, cpufreq: fix Speedfreq-SMI call that clobbers ECX
I have found that using SMI to change the cpu's frequency on my DELL
Latitude L400 clobbers the ECX register in speedstep_set_state, causing
unneccessary retries because the "state" variable has changed silently (GCC
assumes it is still present in ECX).

play safe and avoid gcc caching any register across IO port accesses
that trigger SMIs.

c8237a5fce SVCRDMA: Check num_sge when setting LAST_CTXT bit
The RDMACTXT_F_LAST_CTXT bit was getting set incorrectly
when the last chunk in the read-list spanned multiple pages. This
resulted in a kernel panic when the wrong context was used to
build the RPC iovec page list.

RDMA_READ is used to fetch RPC data from the client for
NFS_WRITE requests. A scatter-gather is used to map the
advertised client side buffer to the server-side iovec and
associated page list.

WR contexts are used to convey which scatter-gather entries are
handled by each WR. When the write data is large, a single RPC may
require multiple RDMA_READ requests so the contexts for a single RPC
are chained together in a linked list. The last context in this list
is marked with a bit RDMACTXT_F_LAST_CTXT so that when this WR completes,
the CQ handler code can enqueue the RPC for processing.

The code in rdma_read_xdr was setting this bit on the last two
contexts on this list when the last read-list chunk spanned multiple
pages. This caused the svc_rdma_recvfrom logic to incorrectly build
the RPC and caused the kernel to crash because the second-to-last
context doesn't contain the iovec page list.

Modified the condition that sets this bit so that it correctly detects
the last context for the RPC.
