unix_dgram_poll() is pretty expensive to check POLLOUT status, because
it has to lock the socket to get its peer, take a reference on the peer
to check its receive queue status, and queue another poll_wait on
peer_wait. This all can be avoided if the process calling
unix_dgram_poll() is not interested in POLLOUT status. It makes
unix_dgram_recvmsg() faster by not queueing irrelevant pollers in
peer_wait.

Alban Crequy reported a problem with connected dgram af_unix sockets and
provided a test program. epoll() would miss to send an EPOLLOUT event
when a thread unqueues a packet from the other peer, making its receive
queue not full.
This is because unix_dgram_poll() fails to call sock_poll_wait(file,
&unix_sk(other)->peer_wait, wait);
if the socket is not writeable at the time epoll_ctl(ADD) is called.
We must call sock_poll_wait(), regardless of 'writable' status, so that
epoll can be notified later of states changes.
Misc: avoids testing twice (sk->sk_shutdown & RCV_SHUTDOWN)

Writers only hold RTNL, not dev_base_lock, so readers must use RCU if

Commit 5c521830cf (ext4: Support discard requests when running in

(in data=writeback mode) and in no-journal mode. Unfortunately, this
no longer works, because in commit dd3932eddf (block: remove

interface, and there are times when we call ext4_free_blocks() when we
are are holding a spinlock, or are otherwise in an atomic context.
For now, I've removed the call to sb_issue_discard() to prevent a
deadlock or (if spinlock debugging is enabled) failures like this:

The following BUG can occur when an inode which is getting freed when
it still has dirty pages outstanding, and it gets deleted (in this
because it was the target of a rename). In ordered mode, we need to
make sure the data pages are written just in case we crash before the
rename (or unlink) is committed. If the inode is being freed then
when we try to igrab the inode, we end up tripping the BUG_ON at
fs/ext4/page-io.c:146.
To solve this problem, we need to keep track of the number of io
callbacks which are pending, and avoid destroying the inode until they
have all been completed. That way we don't have to bump the inode
count to keep the inode from being destroyed; an approach which
doesn't work because the count could have already been dropped down to
zero before the inode writeback has started (at which point we're not
allowed to bump the count back up to 1, since it's already started
getting freed).
Thanks to Dave Chinner for suggesting this approach, which is also
used by XFS.

Commit 27ae60f8f7 ("ipw2x00: replace "ieee80211" with "libipw" where

up the places where it was used to specify the name for the /proc/net/
directory.
For backwards compatibility reasons, that directory name remained
"ieee80211", but due to the DRV_NAME change, the error case printouts
and the cleanup functions now used "libipw" instead. Which made it all
fail badly.
For example, on module unload as reported by Randy:
WARNING: at fs/proc/generic.c:816 remove_proc_entry+0x156/0x35e()
name 'libipw'
because it's trying to unregister a /proc directory that obviously
doesn't even exist.
Clean it all up to use DRV_PROCNAME for the actual /proc directory name.

posix-cpu-timers.c correctly assumes that the dying process does
posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() and removes all !CPUCLOCK_PERTHREAD
timers from signal->cpu_timers list.
But, it also assumes that timer->it.cpu.task is always the group
leader, and thus the dead ->task means the dead thread group.
This is obviously not true after de_thread() changes the leader.
After that almost every posix_cpu_timer_ method has problems.
It is not simple to fix this bug correctly. First of all, I think
that timer->it.cpu should use struct pid instead of task_struct.
Also, the locking should be reworked completely. In particular,
tasklist_lock should not be used at all. This all needs a lot of
nontrivial and hard-to-test changes.
Change __exit_signal() to do posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() when
the old leader dies during exec. This is not the fix, just the
temporary hack to hide the problem for 2.6.37 and stable. IOW,
this is obviously wrong but this is what we currently have anyway:
cpu timers do not work after mt exec.
In theory this change adds another race. The exiting leader can
detach the timers which were attached to the new leader. However,
the window between de_thread() and release_task() is small, we
can pretend that sys_timer_create() was called before de_thread().

adapter->id is deprecated and not set by any adapter driver, so this
was certainly not what the author wanted to use. adapter->nr maybe,
but as dev_err() already includes this value, as well as the client's
address, there's no point repeating them. Better print a simple error
message in plain English words.
