Impact: fix circular locking
Steven reports a circular locking from alloc_cpumask_var doing
a wakeup. We get rid of this using the tried-and-true technique
of using a per-cpu cpumask_var_t rather than doing an alloc
every time.
Simpler and more robust than a rare, implicit allocation within
an atomic codepath.

Impact: cleanup, reduce memory usage for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
Part of the "getting rid of obsolete cpumask_t" patch:
1) Use cpumask_var_t: this is a pointer if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
2) Call alloc_cpumask_var() on first entry into enter_uniprocessor()
3) Use modern cpumask_* functions.

Impact: cleanup, avoid cpumask games
The APM code wants to run on CPU 0: we create an "on_cpu0" wrapper
which uses work_on_cpu() if we're not already on cpu 0.
This introduces a new failure mode: -ENOMEM, so we add an explicit
err arg and handle Linux-style errnos in apm_err().

Straightforward indirection through work_on_cpu(). One change is

plumbed back to microcode_init_cpu(), so now we printk if it fails
on cpu hotplug.

Impact: Fix cpu offline when CONFIG_MAXSMP=y
Changeset bc9b83dd1f "cpumask: convert
c1e_mask in arch/x86/kernel/process.c to cpumask_var_t" contained a
bug: c1e_mask is manipulated even if C1E isn't detected (and hence
not allocated).
This is simply fixed by checking for NULL (which gcc optimizes out
anyway of CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n, since it knows ce1_mask can never
be NULL).
In addition, fix a leak where select_idle_routine re-allocates
(and re-clears) c1e_mask on every cpu init.

explicitly clear the mask and set the first word, rather than using
assignment.

CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }
Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)
Which formalizes this practice. One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).
So replace everywhere which used &CPU_MASK_ALL or CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR
with the modern "cpu_all_mask" (a real const struct cpumask *), and remove
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR altogether.

Guennadi Liakhovetski noticed that the end condition for the loop in
bitmap_find_free_region() is wrong, and the "return if error" was also
using the wrong conditional that would only trigger if the bitmap was an
exact multiple of the allocation size, which is not necessarily the case
with dma_alloc_from_coherent().
Such a failure would end up in bitmap_find_free_region() accessing
beyond the end of the bitmap.

STag zero is a special STag that allows consumers to access any bus
address without registering memory. The nes driver unfortunately
allows STag zero to be used even with QPs created by unprivileged
userspace consumers, which means that any process with direct verbs
access to the nes device can read and write any memory accessible to
the underlying PCI device (usually any memory in the system). Such
access is usually given for cluster software such as MPI to use, so
this is a local privilege escalation bug on most systems running this
driver.
The driver was using STag zero to receive the last streaming mode
data; to allow STag zero to be disabled for unprivileged QPs, the
driver now registers a special MR for this data.

There was a report of a data corruption
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/14/121. There is a script included to
reproduce the problem.
During testing, I encountered a number of strange things with ext3, so I
tried ext2 to attempt to reduce complexity of the problem. I found that
fsstress would quickly hang in wait_on_inode, waiting for I_LOCK to be
cleared, even though instrumentation showed that unlock_new_inode had
already been called for that inode. This points to memory scribble, or
synchronisation problme.
i_state of I_NEW inodes is not protected by inode_lock because other
processes are not supposed to touch them until I_LOCK (and I_NEW) is
cleared. Adding WARN_ON(inode->i_state & I_NEW) to sites where we modify
i_state revealed that generic_sync_sb_inodes is picking up new inodes from
the inode lists and passing them to __writeback_single_inode without
waiting for I_NEW. Subsequently modifying i_state causes corruption. In
my case it would look like this:
CPU0 CPU1
unlock_new_inode() __sync_single_inode()
reg <- inode->i_state
reg -> reg & ~(I_LOCK|I_NEW) reg <- inode->i_state
reg -> inode->i_state reg -> reg | I_SYNC
reg -> inode->i_state
Non-atomic RMW on CPU1 overwrites CPU0 store and sets I_LOCK|I_NEW again.
Fix for this is rather than wait for I_NEW inodes, just skip over them:
inodes concurrently being created are not subject to data integrity
operations, and should not significantly contribute to dirty memory
either.
After this change, I'm unable to reproduce any of the added warnings or
hangs after ~1hour of running. Previously, the new warnings would start
immediately and hang would happen in under 5 minutes.
I'm also testing on ext3 now, and so far no problems there either. I
don't know whether this fixes the problem reported above, but it fixes a
real problem for me.

Currently we disable the Acer WMI backlight device if there is no ACPI
backlight device. As a result, we end up with no backlight device at all.
We should instead disable it if there is an ACPI device, as the other
laptop drivers do. This regression was introduced in febf2d9 ("Acer-WMI:
fingers off backlight if video.ko is serving this functionality").
Each laptop driver with backlight support got a similar change around
febf2d9. The changes to the other drivers look correct; see e.g.
a598c82f for a similar but correct change. The regression is also in
2.6.28.

fellowship unfortunately ran out a short while ago (after earlier attempts
to seek funding, only Google stepped forward with a bit of further funding
for the position), so the patch below acknowledges something closer to
reality.
Unfortunately, there will (probably very) soon be a further downgrade from
"Maintained" to "Odd Fixes" or "Orphan", unless some funding miracle
