2772f90373 bnx2x: Rx work check
The has Rx work check was wrong: when the FW was at the end of the page,
the driver was already at the beginning of the next page. Since the
check only validated that both driver and FW are pointing to the same
place, it concluded that there is still work to be done. This caused
some serious issues including long latency results on ping-pong test and
lockups while unloading the driver in that condition.

d25e26b61d [x86] Clean up MAXSMP Kconfig, and limit NR_CPUS to 512
This fixes a regression that was indirectly caused by commit
1184dc2ffe ("x86: modify Kconfig to allow
up to 4096 cpus").

Allowing 4k CPU's is not practical at this time, because we still have a
number of places that have several 'cpumask_t's on the stack, and a
4k-bit cpumask is 512 bytes of stack-space for each such variable.  This
literally caused functions like 'smp_call_function_mask' to have a 2.5kB
stack frame, and several functions to have 2kB stackframes.

With an 8kB stack total, smashing the stack was simply much too likely.
At least bugzilla entry

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11342

was due to this.

The earlier commit to not inline load_module() into sys_init_module()
fixed the particular symptoms of this that Alan Brunelle saw in that
bugzilla entry, but the huge stack waste by cpumask_t's was the more
direct cause.

Some day we'll have allocation helpers that allocate large CPU masks
dynamically, but in the meantime we simply cannot allow cpumasks this
large.

8a549f8b58 [IA64] Fix __{in,out}s{w,l} to handle unaligned data
Some ia64 systems produce several repeats of kernel messages like this:

 kernel unaligned access to 0xe000000644220466, ip=0xa000000100516fa1

This was tracked to ide code using the __cmd[] field in "struct request"
via the __outsw() function.  __cmd[] is a char array, so is not guaranteed
to be properly aligned when accessed as words.

ffb4ba76a2 [module] Don't let gcc inline load_module()
'load_module()' is a complex function that contains all the ELF section
logic, and inlining it is utterly insane.  But gcc will do it, simply
because there is only one call-site.  As a result, all the stack space
that is allocated for all the work to load the module will still be
active when we actually call the module init sequence, and the deep call
chain makes stack overflows happen.

And stack overflows are really hard to debug, because they not only
corrupt random pages below the stack, but also corrupt the thread_info
structure that is allocated under the stack.

In this case, Alan Brunelle reported some crazy oopses at bootup, after
loading the processor module that ends up doing complex ACPI stuff and
has quite a deep callchain.  This should fix it, and is the sane thing
to do regardless.

42aca483dd [IA64] Fix ia64 build failure when CONFIG_SFC=m
CONFIG_SFC=m uses topology_core_siblings() which, for ia64, expects
cpu_core_map to be exported.  It is not.  This patch exports the needed
symbol.

Maintainers note: This really looks like the wrong thing to do ... it
would be much better for the kernel to export an API to provide
drivers like this with data they need (which in the case of this
driver seems to be an estimate of the effective parallelism available
on the platform).  But x86 has exported this forever ... so go with
the flow until such an API is defined.

354879bb97 sched_clock: fix cpu_clock()
This patch fixes 3 issues:

a) it removes the dependency on jiffies, because jiffies are incremented
   by a single CPU, and the tick is not synchronized between CPUs. Therefore
   relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work
   as it can drift around.

   So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window.

b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking):

   delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw;
   clock += delta;

   Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear.

c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking.

the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas:

18b13e5457 KVM: Use .fixup instead of .text.fixup on __kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot
vmlinux.lds expects the fixup code to be on a section named .fixup. The
.text.fixup section is not mentioned on vmlinux.lds, and is included on
the resulting vmlinux (just after .text) only because of ld heuristics on
placing orphan sections.

However, placing .text.fixup outside .text breaks the definition of
_etext, making it exclude the .text.fixup contents. That makes .text.fixup
be ignored by the kernel initialization code that needs to know about
section locations, such as the code setting page protection bits.

532a6086e3 virtio_balloon: fix towards_target when deflating balloon
Both v and vb->num_pages are u32 and unsigned int respectively.  If v is less
than vb->num_pages (and it is, when deflating the balloon), the result is a
very large 32-bit number.  Since we're returning a s64, instead of getting the
same negative number we desire, we get a very large positive number.

This handles the case where v < vb->num_pages and ensures we get a small,
negative, s64 as the result.

Rusty: please push this for 2.6.27-rc4.  It's probably appropriate for the
stable tree too as it will cause an unexpected OOM when ballooning.

3051e41ab7 ALSA: ASoC: Fix double free and memory leak in many codec drivers
Many SoC audio codec drivers have improper freeing of memory in error
paths.

* codec is allocated in the platform device probe function, but is not
  freed there in case of error. Instead it is freed in the i2c device
  probe function's error path. However the success or failure of both
  functions is not linked, so this could result in a double free (if
  the platform device is successfully probed, the i2c device probing
  fails and then the platform driver is unregistered.)

* codec->private_data is allocated in many platform device probe
  functions but not freed in their error paths.

This patch hopefully solves all these problems.

a2bd7274b4 x86: fix HPET regression in 2.6.26 versus 2.6.25, check hpet against BAR, v3
David Witbrodt tracked down (and bisected) a hpet bootup hang on his
system to the following problem: a BIOS bug made the hpet device
visible as a generic PCI device. If e820 reserved entries happen to
be registered first in the resource tree [which v2.6.26 started doing],
then the PCI code will reallocate that device's BAR to some other
address - breaking timer IRQs and hanging the system.

( Normally hpet devices are hidden by the BIOS from the OS's PCI
  discovery via chipset magic. Sometimes the hpet is not a PCI device
  at all. )

Solve this fundamental fragility by making non-PCI platform drivers
insert resources into the resource tree even if it overlaps the e820
reserved entry, to keep the resource manager from updating the BAR.

Also do these checks for the ioapic and mmconfig addresses, and emit
a warning if this happens.

seq_read() has a subtle bug - we want the first loop there to go

Return value of filldir callback is just "should we stop here"; it's
not a usable channel for passing error values (i.e. ->readdir() will
forget anything except "is it non-zero").

One still needs 2^28 proc entries to notice this.

060700b571 x86: do not enable TSC notifier if we don't need it
Impact: crash on non-TSC-equipped CPUs

Don't enable the TSC notifier if we *either*:

1. don't have a CPU, or
2. have a CPU with constant TSC.

In either of those cases, the notifier is either damaging (1) or useless(2).

3e5fc80a40 drm: don't set the signal blocker on the master process.
There is a problem with debugging the X server and gdb crashes in
the xkb startup code.

This avoids the problem by allowing the master process to get signals.
It should be safe as the signal blocker is mainly so that you can
Ctrl-Z a 3D application without locking up the whole box. Ctrl-Z the
X server isn't something many people do.
