With aliasing VIPT cache support, the ARM implementation of
clear_user_page() and copy_user_page() sets up a temporary kernel space
mapping such that we have the same cache colour as the userspace page.
This avoids having to consider any userspace aliases from this operation.
However, when highmem is enabled, kmap_atomic() have to setup mappings.
The copy_user_highpage() and clear_user_highpage() call these functions
before delegating the copies to copy_user_page() and clear_user_page().
The effect of this is that each of the *_user_highpage() functions setup
their own kmap mapping, followed by the *_user_page() functions setting
up another mapping. This is rather wasteful.
Thankfully, copy_user_highpage() can be overriden by architectures by
defining __HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE. However, replacement of
clear_user_highpage() is more difficult because its inline definition
is not conditional. It seems that you're expected to define
__HAVE_ARCH_ALLOC_ZEROED_USER_HIGHPAGE and provide a replacement
__alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() implementation instead.
The allocation itself is fine, so we don't want to override that. What
we really want to do is to override clear_user_highpage() with our own
version which doesn't kmap_atomic() unnecessarily.
Other VIPT architectures (PARISC and SH) would also like to override
this function as well.

udf_clear_inode() can leave behind buffers on mapping's i_private list (when
we truncated preallocation). Call invalidate_inode_buffers() so that the list
is properly cleaned-up before we return from udf_clear_inode(). This is ugly
and suggest that we should cleanup preallocation earlier than in clear_inode()
but currently there's no such call available since drop_inode() is called under
inode lock and thus is unusable for disk operations.

Impact: fix boot crash on AMD IOMMU if CONFIG_GART_IOMMU is off
Currently these macros evaluate to a no-op except the kernel is compiled
with GART or Calgary support. But we also need these macros when we have
SWIOTLB, VT-d or AMD IOMMU in the kernel. Since we always compile at
least with SWIOTLB we can define these macros always.
This patch is also for stable backport for the same reason the SWIOTLB

..
The s390 implementation of sched_clock uses the store clock instruction and
subtracts jiffies_timer_cc.
jiffies_timer_cc is a local variable in arch/s390/kernel/time.c and only used
for sched_clock and monotonic clock. For historical reasons there is an offset
on that value. With todays code this offset is unnecessary. By removing that
offset we can get a sched_clock which returns the nanoseconds after time_init.
This improves CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME.
Since sched_clock is the only user, I have also renamed jiffies_timer_cc to
sched_clock_base_cc. In addition, the local variable init_timer_cc is redundant
and can be romved as well.

syscall_get_nr() currently returns a valid result only if the call
chain of the traced process includes do_syscall_trace_enter(). But
collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of
syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus.
To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field
in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process
is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path.
The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2]
for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2]
may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call
chain includes do_syscall_trace_enter. Use regs->orig_gprs2 instead.

This fixes a regression from v2.6.27, caused by commit
5814f737e1cd2cfa2893badd62189acae3e1e1fd, "ACPI: thinkpad-acpi:
attempt to preserve fan state on resume".
It is possible for fan_suspend() to fail to properly initialize
fan_control_desired_level as required by fan_resume(), resulting on
the fan always being set to level 7 on resume if the user didn't
touch the fan controller.
In order to get fan sleep/resume handling to work right:
1. Fix the fan_suspend handling of the T43 firmware quirk. If it is
still undefined, we didn't touch the fan yet and that means we have no
business doing it on resume.
2. Store the fan level on its own variable to avoid any possible
issues with hijacking fan_control_desired_level (which isn't supposed
to have anything other than 0-7 in it, anyway).
3. Change the fan_resume code to me more straightforward to understand
(although we DO optimize the boolean logic there, otherwise it looks
disgusting).
4. Add comments to help understand what the code is supposed to be
doing.
5. Change fan_set_level to be less strict about how auto and
full-speed modes are requested.

Paraphrasing the description from the above report, it makes sendmsg()

situation where child processes continue to queue new FDs over a
AF_UNIX socket to a parent which is in the exit path and running
garbage collection on these FDs. This contention can result in soft

Some Apple boxes evidently require us to set SCI_EN on resume
directly, because if we don't do that, they hung somewhere in the
resume code path. Moreover, on these boxes it is not sufficient to
use acpi_enable() to turn ACPI on during resume. All of this is
against the ACPI specification which states that (1) the BIOS is
supposed to return from the S3 sleep state with ACPI enabled
(SCI_EN set) and (2) the SCI_EN bit is owned by the hardware and we
are not supposed to change it.
For this reason, blacklist the affected systems so that the SCI_EN
bit is set during resume on them.
[NOTE: Unconditional setting SCI_EN for all system on resume doesn't
work, because it makes some other systems crash (that's to be
expected). Also, it is not entirely clear right now if all of the
Apple boxes require this workaround.]

(I did not compile or test it, please let me know, or help fixing
it, if something is wrong with the conversion)
This patch is part of a larger patch series which will remove
the "char bus_id[20]" name string from struct device. The device
name is managed in the kobject anyway, and without any size
limitation, and just needlessly copied into "struct device".
To set and read the device name dev_name(dev) and dev_set_name(dev)
must be used. If your code uses static kobjects, which it shouldn't
do, "const char *init_name" can be used to statically provide the
name the registered device should have. At registration time, the
init_name field is cleared, to enforce the use of dev_name(dev) to
access the device name at a later time.
We need to get rid of all occurrences of bus_id in the entire tree
to be able to enable the new interface. Please apply this patch,
and possibly convert any remaining remaining occurrences of bus_id.
We want to submit a patch to -next, which will remove bus_id from
"struct device", to find the remaining pieces to convert, and finally
switch over to the new api, which will remove the 20 bytes array
and does no longer have a size limitation.

Any user on existing parisc 32- and 64bit-kernels can easily crash
the kernel and as such enforce a DSO.
A simple testcase is available here:
http://gsyprf10.external.hp.com/~deller/crash.tgz
The problem is introduced by the fact, that the handle_interruption()
crash handler calls the show_regs() function, which in turn tries to
unwind the stack by calling parisc_show_stack(). Since the stack contains
userspace addresses, a try to unwind the stack is dangerous and useless
and leads to the crash.
The fix is trivial: For userspace processes
a) avoid to unwind the stack, and
b) avoid to resolve userspace addresses to kernel symbol names.
While touching this code, I converted print_symbol() to %pS
printk formats and made parisc_show_stack() static.
An initial patch for this was written by Kyle McMartin back in August:

value. The issue prior to this though was we were unmapping
a smaller amount which the prior DMA patch fixed.

This should fix the SW-IOMMU bounce buffer starvation
seen ok kernel.org bugzilla 11811:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11811
Users on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2 would see something like:
DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 4224 bytes at device 0000:0b:00.0
Unfortunately its only easy to trigger on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2
so far so its difficult to debug (even with swiotlb=force).
We were pci_unmap_single()'ing less bytes than what we called
for with pci_map_single() and as such we were starving
the swiotlb from its 64MB amount of bounce buffers. We remain
consistent and now always use sc->rxbufsize for RX. While at
it we update the beacon DMA maps as well to only use the data
portion of the skb, previous to this we were pci_map_single()'ing
more data for beaconing than what we tell the hardware it can use,
therefore pushing more iotlb abuse.
Still not sure why this is so easily triggerable on
MacBook Pro 3.1, it may be the hardware configuration
tends to use more memory > 3GB mark for DMA.

Patch fixes the kernel trace when user tries to set
ad-hoc mode on non IBSS channel.

For the RX DMA fix for iwlwifi ("iwlagn: fix RX skb alignment") Luis
pointed out:

I asked around, and he's right, there may be platforms that do not allow
passing such such an address to the DMA API functions. This patch
changes it by using the proper dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu API
invented for this purpose.
