Yanmin Zhang reported:

Comparing with kernel 2.6.25, sysbench+mysql(oltp, readonly) has many
regressions with 2.6.26-rc1:

 1) 8-core stoakley: 28%;
 2) 16-core tigerton: 20%;
 3) Itanium Montvale: 50%.

a76bfd0da2 initcalls: Fix m68k build and possible buffer overflow
This patch fixes a build bug on m68k - gcc decides to emit a call to the
strlen library function, which we don't implement.

More importantly - my previous patch "init: don't lose initcall return
values" (commit e662e1cfd4) had introduced
potential buffer overflow by wrong calculation of string accumulator
size.

Use strlcat() instead, fixing both bugs.

Many thanks Andreas Schwab and Geert Uytterhoeven for helping
to catch and fix the bug.

a442ac512f Clean up 'print_fn_descriptor_symbol()' types
Everybody wants to pass it a function pointer, and in fact, that is what
you _must_ pass it for it to make sense (since it knows that ia64 and
ppc64 use descriptors for function pointers and fetches the actual
address from there).

So don't make the argument be a 'unsigned long' and force everybody to
add a cast.

487ad7efbf tty: fix BKL related leak and crash
Enabling the BKL to be lockdep tracked uncovered the following
upstream kernel bug in the tty code, which caused a BKL
reference leak:

  ================================================
  [ BUG: lock held when returning to user space! ]
  ------------------------------------------------
  dmesg/3121 is leaving the kernel with locks still held!
  1 lock held by dmesg/3121:
   #0:  (kernel_mutex){--..}, at: [<c02f34d9>] opost+0x24/0x194

this might explain some of the atomicity warnings and crashes
that -tip tree testing has been experiencing since the BKL

839052d27e [IA64] fix personality(PER_LINUX32) performance issue
The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall
personality(PER_LINUX32).

On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance
because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried
to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default
execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very
expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function
lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c).

To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in
initialization time for IA-64 architecture.

cpu_online_map. Both functions run with preemption disabled which
protects for cpus going offline. However new cpus can be added and
therefore the cpu_online_map can change unexpectedly.
So use the call_lock to protect against changes to the cpu_online_map
in start_secondary() and all smp_call_* functions.

Calls to copy_to_user() or copy_from_user() can fail when copying N
bytes, where N is a constant less than 8, but not 1, 2, 4, or 8,
because 'ret' is not initialized and is only set if the size is 1,
2, 4 or 8, but is tested after the switch statement for any constant
size <= 8.  This fixes it by initializing 'ret' to 1, causing the
code to fall through to the __copy_tofrom_user call for sizes other
than 1, 2, 4 or 8.

cec08e7a94 [POWERPC] vmemmap fixes to use smaller pages
This changes vmemmap to use a different region (region 0xf) of the
address space, and to configure the page size of that region
dynamically at boot.

The problem with the current approach of always using 16M pages is that
it's not well suited to machines that have small amounts of memory such
as small partitions on pseries, or PS3's.

In fact, on the PS3, failure to allocate the 16M page backing vmmemmap
tends to prevent hotplugging the HV's "additional" memory, thus limiting
the available memory even more, from my experience down to something
like 80M total, which makes it really not very useable.

The logic used by my match to choose the vmemmap page size is:

 - If 16M pages are available and there's 1G or more RAM at boot,
   use that size.
 - Else if 64K pages are available, use that
 - Else use 4K pages

I've tested on a POWER6 (16M pages) and on an iSeries POWER3 (4K pages)
and it seems to work fine.

Note that I intend to change the way we organize the kernel regions &
SLBs so the actual region will change from 0xf back to something else at
one point, as I simplify the SLB miss handler, but that will be for a
later patch.

e7e72bf641 Remove blkdev warning triggered by using md
As setting and clearing queue flags now requires that we hold a spinlock
on the queue, and as blk_queue_stack_limits is called without that lock,
get the lock inside blk_queue_stack_limits.

For blk_queue_stack_limits to be able to find the right lock, each md
personality needs to set q->queue_lock to point to the appropriate lock.
Those personalities which didn't previously use a spin_lock, us
q->__queue_lock.  So always initialise that lock when allocated.

With this in place, setting/clearing of the QUEUE_FLAG_PLUGGED bit will no
longer cause warnings as it will be clear that the proper lock is held.

Thanks to Dan Williams for review and fixing the silly bugs.

76cdd58e55 memory_hotplug: always initialize pageblock bitmap
Trying to online a new memory section that was added via memory hotplug
sometimes results in crashes when the new pages are added via __free_page.
 Reason for that is that the pageblock bitmap isn't initialized and hence
contains random stuff.  That means that get_pageblock_migratetype()
returns also random stuff and therefore

	list_add(&page->lru,
		&zone->free_area[order].free_list[migratetype]);

in __free_one_page() tries to do a list_add to something that isn't even
necessarily a list.

This happens since 86051ca5ea ("mm: fix
usemap initialization") which makes sure that the pageblock bitmap gets
only initialized for pages present in a zone.  Unfortunately for hot-added
memory the zones "grow" after the memmap and the pageblock memmap have
been initialized.  Which means that the new pages have an unitialized
bitmap.  To solve this the calls to grow_zone_span() and grow_pgdat_span()
are moved to __add_zone() just before the initialization happens.

The patch also moves the two functions since __add_zone() is the only
caller and I didn't want to add a forward declaration.

44c81433e8 per_cpu: fix DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED for modules
Current module loader lookups ".data.percpu" ELF section to perform
per_cpu relocation.  But DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() uses another
section (".data.percpu.shared_aligned"), currently only handled in
vmlinux.lds, not by module loader.

To correct this problem, instead of adding logic into module loader, or
using at build time a module.lds file for all arches to group
".data.percpu.shared_aligned" into ".data.percpu", just use ".data.percpu"
for modules.

Alignment requirements are correctly handled by ld and module loader.
