[ Same race and same patch also by Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> ]
I have a laptop (G3 powerbook) which will pretty reliably hit a race
between con_open and con_close late in the boot process and oops in
vt_ioctl due to tty->driver_data being NULL.
What happens is this: process A opens /dev/tty6; it comes into
con_open() (drivers/char/vt.c) and assign a non-NULL value to
tty->driver_data. Then process A closes that and concurrently process
B opens /dev/tty6. Process A gets through con_close() and clears
tty->driver_data, since tty->count == 1. However, before process A
can decrement tty->count, we switch to process B (e.g. at the
down(&tty_sem) call at drivers/char/tty_io.c line 1626).
So process B gets to run and comes into con_open with tty->count == 2,
as tty->count is incremented (in init_dev) before con_open is called.
Because tty->count != 1, we don't set tty->driver_data. Then when the
process tries to do anything with that fd, it oopses.
The simple and effective fix for this is to test tty->driver_data
rather than tty->count in con_open. The testing and setting of
tty->driver_data is serialized with respect to the clearing of
tty->driver_data in con_close by the console_sem. We can't get a
situation where con_open sees tty->driver_data != NULL and then
con_close on a different fd clears tty->driver_data, because
tty->count is incremented before con_open is called. Thus this patch
eliminates the race, and in fact with this patch my laptop doesn't
oops.

I know that scsi procfs is legacy code but this is a fix for a memory leak.
While reading through sg.c I realized that the implementation of
/proc/scsi/sg/devices with seq_file is leaking memory due to freeing the
pointer returned by the next() iterator method. Since next() might return
NULL or an error this is wrong. This patch fixes it through using the
seq_files private field for holding the reference to the iterator object.
Here is a small bash script to trigger the leak. Use slabtop to watch
the size-32 usage grow and grow.

- copy_from_user() can fail; ->write() must check its return value.
- severe buffer overruns both in ->read() and ->write() - lseek to the
end (i.e. to mmapper_size) and
if (count + *ppos > mmapper_size)
count = count + *ppos - mmapper_size;
will do absolutely nothing. Then it will call
copy_to_user(buf,&v_buf[*ppos],count);
with obvious results (similar for ->write()).
Fixed by turning read to simple_read_from_buffer() and by doing
normal limiting of count in ->write().
- gratitious lock_kernel() in ->mmap() - it's useless there.
- lots of gratuitous includes.

When creating a table in context memory where the table is smaller
than our chunk size, we don't want to allocate and map a full chunk.
Instead, allocate just enough memory to cover the table.
This can be pretty simple because all tables are a power-of-2 size, so
either the table is a multiple of the chunk size, or it's smaller than
one chunk.

Add SRQ support to userspace verbs module. This adds several commands
and associated structures, but it's OK to do this without bumping the
ABI version because the commands are added at the end of the list so
they don't change the existing numbering. There are two cases to
worry about:
1. New kernel, old userspace. This is OK because old userspace simply
won't try to use the new SRQ commands. None of the old commands are
changed.
2. Old kernel, new userspace. This works perfectly as long as
userspace doesn't try to use SRQ commands. If userspace tries to
use SRQ commands, it will get EINVAL, which is perfectly
reasonable: the kernel doesn't support SRQs, so we couldn't do any
better.

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.

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.
