ddca60c590 [PATCH] lockdep: annotate the BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION ioctl
The delete partition IOCTL takes the bd_mutex for both the disk and the
partition; these have an obvious hierarchical relationship and this patch
annotates this relationship for lockdep.

bef317e364 [PATCH] ramdisk blocksize Kconfig entry
Make the ramdisk blocksize configurable at kernel compilation time rather
than only at boot or module load time, like a couple of the other ramdisk
options.  I found this handy awhile back but thought little of it, until
recently asked by a few of the testing folks here to be able to do the same
thing for their automated test setups.

The Kconfig comment is largely lifted from comments in rd.c, and hopefully
this will increase the chances of making folks aware that the default value
often isn't a great choice here (for increasing values of PAGE_SIZE, even
moreso).

52fa259b5a [PATCH] hdrinstall: remove asm/io.h from user visibility
There's no excuse for userspace abusing this kernel header -- the kernel's
headers are not intended to provide a library of helper routines for
userspace.  Using <asm/io.h> from userspace is broken on most architectures
anyway.  Just say 'no'.

This isn't suitable for userspace to see -- the kernel headers are not a
random library of stuff for userspace; they're only there to define the
kernel<->user ABI for system libraries and tools.  Anything which _was_
abusing asm/atomic.h from userspace was probably broken anyway -- as it often
didn't even give atomic operation.

098c5eea03 [PATCH] null-terminate over-long /proc/kallsyms symbols
Got a customer bug report (https://bugzilla.novell.com/190296) about kernel
symbols longer than 127 characters which end up in a string buffer that is
not NULL terminated, leading to garbage in /proc/kallsyms.  Using strlcpy
prevents this from happening, even though such symbols still won't come out
right.

A better fix would be to not use a fixed-size buffer, but it's probably not
worth the trouble.  (Modversion'ed symbols even have a length limit of 60.)

8477b55ba1 [PATCH] i386: remove redundant might_sleep() in user accessors.
On i386, the user space accessor functions copy_from/to_user() both invoke
might_sleep(), do a quick sanity check, and then pass the work on to their
__copy_from/to_user() counterparts, which again invoke might_sleep().
Given that no actual work happens between these two calls, it is best to
eliminate one of the redundant might_sleep()s.

e78a887a59 [PATCH] i386 kexec: allow the kexec on panic support to compile on voyager
This patch removes the foolish assumption that SMP implied local apics.
That assumption is not-true on the Voyager subarch.  This makes that
dependency explicit, and allows the code to build.

What gets disabled is just an optimization to get better crash dumps so the
support should work if there is a kernel that will initialization on the
voyager subarch under those harsh conditions.

Hopefully we can figure out how to initialize apics in init_IRQ and remove
the need to disable io_apics and this dependency.

c38c8db722 [PATCH] ia64: race flushing icache in COW path
There is a race condition that showed up in a threaded JIT environment.
The situation is that a process with a JIT code page forks, so the page is
marked read-only, then some threads are created in the child.  One of the
threads attempts to add a new code block to the JIT page, so a
copy-on-write fault is taken, and the kernel allocates a new page, copies
the data, installs the new pte, and then calls lazy_mmu_prot_update() to
flush caches to make sure that the icache and dcache are in sync.
Unfortunately, the other thread runs right after the new pte is installed,
but before the caches have been flushed.  It tries to execute some old JIT
code that was already in this page, but it sees some garbage in the i-cache
from the previous users of the new physical page.

Fix: we must make the caches consistent before installing the pte.  This is
an ia64 only fix because lazy_mmu_prot_update() is a no-op on all other
architectures.

And 1 object leaks in

*size-64
*size-128

It is the fix for the first one.  filp leaks in the bowels of namei.c.

Seems, size-4096 is file table leaking in expand_fdtables.

I have no idea what are the rest and why they show only accompanying
another leaks.  Some debugging structs?

79bd3f8563 [SCSI] More buffer->request_buffer changes
Seem like quite a few splipped through the cracks.  Here's a patch to
update all references I could find:

27b437c8b7 [NET]: Update frag_list in pskb_trim
When pskb_trim has to defer to ___pksb_trim to trim the frag_list part of
the packet, the frag_list is not updated to reflect the trimming.  This
will usually work fine until you hit something that uses the packet length
or tail from the frag_list.

Examples include esp_output and ip_fragment.

Another problem caused by this is that you can end up with a linear packet
with a frag_list attached.

It is possible to get away with this if we audit everything to make sure
that they always consult skb->len before going down onto frag_list.  In
fact we can do the samething for the paged part as well to avoid copying
the data area of the skb.  For now though, let's do the conservative fix
and update frag_list.

Many thanks to Marco Berizzi for helping me to track down this bug.

This 4-year old bug took 3 months to track down.  Marco was very patient
indeed :)
