a5a7103fe1 p54: fix a NULL pointer dereference bug
If the RSSI calibration table was not found or not parsed properly,
priv->rssi_db will be NULL, p54_rssi_find needs to be able to deal
with that.

c3371d64d2 iwlwifi: remove duplicate initialization
rate_mask is initialized again later so this can be removed.  Btw, if
rate_control_send_low(sta, priv_sta, txrc) returns false, that means
that "sta" is non-NULL.  That's why the second initialization of
rate_mask is a little simpler than the first.

8a80c79a77 netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: fix out of sync scenario while in SYN_RECV
This patch fixes the out of sync scenarios while in SYN_RECV state.

Quoting Jozsef, what it happens if we are out of sync if the
following:

> > b. conntrack entry is outdated, new SYN received
> >    - (b1) we ignore it but save the initialization data from it
> >    - (b2) when the reply SYN/ACK receives and it matches the saved data,
> >      we pick up the new connection
This is what it should happen if we are in SYN_RECV state. Initially,
the SYN packet hits b1, thus we save data from it. But the SYN/ACK
packet is considered a retransmission given that we're in SYN_RECV
state. Therefore, we never hit b2 and we don't get in sync. To fix
this, we ignore SYN/ACK if we are in SYN_RECV. If the previous packet
was a SYN, then we enter the ignore case that get us in sync.

This patch helps a lot to conntrackd in stress scenarios (assumming a
client that generates lots of small TCP connections). During the failover,
consider that the new primary has injected one outdated flow in SYN_RECV
state (this is likely to happen if the conntrack event rate is high
because the backup will be a bit delayed from the primary). With the
current code, if the client starts a new fresh connection that matches
the tuple, the SYN packet will be ignored without updating the state
tracking, and the SYN+ACK in reply will blocked as it will not pass
checkings III or IV (since all state tracking in the original direction
is not initialized because of the SYN packet was ignored and the ignore
case that get us in sync is not applied).

I posted a couple of patches before this one. Changli Gao spotted
a simpler way to fix this problem. This patch implements his idea.

299c56966a x86: Use u32 instead of long to set reset vector back to 0
A customer of ours, complained that when setting the reset
vector back to 0, it trashed other data and hung their box.
They noticed when only 4 bytes were set to 0 instead of 8,
everything worked correctly.

Mathew pointed out:

 |
 | We're supposed to be resetting trampoline_phys_low and
 | trampoline_phys_high here, which are two 16-bit values.
 | Writing 64 bits is definitely going to overwrite space
 | that we're not supposed to be touching.
 |

So limit the area modified to u32.

My first guess would have been stale TLB entries laying around that a new

however, as when we mapped the pages for the new bo the TLBs would've
gotten flushed anyway.

can switch into oneshot mode, when the backup broadcast device
supports oneshot mode as well. Otherwise we would try to switch the

unnoticed so far as the current available broadcast devices support
oneshot mode. Seth unearthed this problem while debugging and working
around an hpet related BIOS wreckage.

It seems odd that truncate_inode_pages_range(), called not only when
truncating but also when evicting inodes, has mem_cgroup_uncharge_start
and _end() batching in its second loop to clear up a few leftovers, but
not in its first loop that does almost all the work: add them there too.

7137c6bd45 aio: fix race between io_destroy() and io_submit()
A race can occur when io_submit() races with io_destroy():

 CPU1						CPU2
io_submit()
  do_io_submit()
    ...
    ctx = lookup_ioctx(ctx_id);
						io_destroy()
    Now do_io_submit() holds the last reference to ctx.
    ...
    queue new AIO
    put_ioctx(ctx) - frees ctx with active AIOs

We solve this issue by checking whether ctx is being destroyed in AIO
submission path after adding new AIO to ctx.  Then we are guaranteed that
either io_destroy() waits for new AIO or we see that ctx is being
destroyed and bail out.

aio-dio-invalidate-failure GPFs in aio_put_req from io_submit.

lookup_ioctx doesn't implement the rcu lookup pattern properly.
rcu_read_lock does not prevent refcount going to zero, so we might take
a refcount on a zero count ioctx.

Fix the bug by atomically testing for zero refcount before incrementing.

a2d6d2fa90 drivers/rtc/rtc-ds3232.c: fix time range difference between linux and RTC chip
In linux rtc_time struct, tm_mon range is 0~11, tm_wday range is 0~6,
while in RTC HW REG, month range is 1~12, day of the week range is 1~7,
this patch adjusts difference of them.

The efect of this bug was that most of month will be operated on as the
next month by the hardware (When in Jan it maybe even worse).  For
example, if in May, software wrote 4 to the hardware, which handled it as
April.  Then the logic would be different between software and hardware,
which would cause weird things to happen.

294f6cf486 ldm: corrupted partition table can cause kernel oops
The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices.
The code for evaluating LDM partitions (in fs/partitions/ldm.c) contains
a bug that causes a kernel oops on certain corrupted LDM partitions.  A
kernel subsystem seems to crash, because, after the oops, the kernel no
longer recognizes newly connected storage devices.

The patch changes ldm_parse_vmdb() to Validate the value of vblk_size.

2876592f23 mm: vmscan: stop reclaim/compaction earlier due to insufficient progress if !__GFP_REPEAT
should_continue_reclaim() for reclaim/compaction allows scanning to
continue even if pages are not being reclaimed until the full list is
scanned.  In terms of allocation success, this makes sense but potentially
it introduces unwanted latency for high-order allocations such as
transparent hugepages and network jumbo frames that would prefer to fail
the allocation attempt and fallback to order-0 pages.  Worse, there is a
potential that the full LRU scan will clear all the young bits, distort
page aging information and potentially push pages into swap that would
have otherwise remained resident.

This patch will stop reclaim/compaction if no pages were reclaimed in the
last SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages that were considered.  For allocations such as
hugetlbfs that use __GFP_REPEAT and have fewer fallback options, the full
LRU list may still be scanned.

Order-0 allocation should not be affected because RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION
is not set so the following avoids the gfp_mask being examined:

        if (!(sc->reclaim_mode & RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION))
                return false;

A tool was developed based on ftrace that tracked the latency of
high-order allocations while transparent hugepage support was enabled and
three benchmarks were run.  The "fix-infinite" figures are 2.6.38-rc4 with
Johannes's patch "vmscan: fix zone shrinking exit when scan work is done"
applied.

Mean time for order-1 allocations is reduced.  order-2 looks increased but
with so few allocations, it's not particularly significant.  THP mean
allocation latency is also reduced.  That said, allocation time varies so
significantly that the reductions are within noise.

Max allocation time is reduced by a significant amount for low-order
allocations but reduced for THP allocations which presumably are now
breaking before reclaim has done enough work.

Again, mean time for order-1 allocations is reduced while order-2
allocations are too few to draw conclusions from.  The mean time for THP
allocations is also slightly reduced albeit the reductions are within
varianes.

Once again, our maximum allocation time is significantly reduced for
low-order allocations and slightly increased for THP allocations.

This benchmark creates one thread per CPU which references an amount of
anonymous memory 1.5 times the size of physical RAM.  This pounds swap
quite heavily and is intended to exercise THP a bit.

Mean allocation time for order-1 is reduced as before.  It's also reduced
for THP allocations but the variations here are pretty massive due to
swap.  As before, maximum allocation times are significantly reduced.

Overall, the patch reduces the mean and maximum allocation latencies for
the smaller high-order allocations.  This was with Slab configured so it
would be expected to be more significant with Slub which uses these size
allocations more aggressively.

The mean allocation times for THP allocations are also slightly reduced.
The maximum latency was slightly increased as predicted by the comments
due to reclaim/compaction breaking early.  However, workloads care more
about the latency of lower-order allocations than THP so it's an
acceptable trade-off.

ac3c830419 drivers/nfc/pn544.c: add missing regulator
The regulator framework is used for power management.  The regulators are
only named in the driver code, the actual control stuff is in the board
file for each architecture or use case.

The PN544 chip has three regulators that can be controlled or not -
depending on the architecture where the chip is being used.  So some of
the regulators may not be controllable.  In our current case the third
regulator, which was missing from the code, went unnoticed because we
didn't need to control it.  To be as general as possible - in this respect
- the driver needs to list all regulators.  Then the board file can be
used to actually set the usage.
