e542713529 md: do not count blocked devices as spares
remove_and_add_spares() assumes that failed devices have been hot-removed
from the array.  Removal is skipped in the 'blocked' case so do not count a
device in this state as 'spare'.

2339788376 md: fix merge error
The original STRIPE_OP_IO removal patch had the following hunk:

-               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; ) {
+               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; )
                        set_bit(R5_Wantwrite, &sh->dev[i].flags);
-                       if (!test_and_set_bit(STRIPE_OP_IO, &sh->ops.pending))
-                               sh->ops.count++;
-               }

However it appears the hunk became broken after merging:
-               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; ) {
+               for (i = conf->raid_disks; i--; )
                        set_bit(R5_Wantwrite, &sh->dev[i].flags);
                        set_bit(R5_LOCKED, &dev->flags);
                        s.locked++;

4b80991c6c md: Protect access to mddev->disks list using RCU
All modifications and most access to the mddev->disks list are made
under the reconfig_mutex lock.  However there are three places where
the list is walked without any locking.  If a reconfig happens at this
time, havoc (and oops) can ensue.

So use RCU to protect these accesses:
  - wrap them in rcu_read_{,un}lock()
  - use list_for_each_entry_rcu
  - add to the list with list_add_rcu
  - delete from the list with list_del_rcu
  - delay the 'free' with call_rcu rather than schedule_work

Note that export_rdev did a list_del_init on this list.  In almost all
cases the entry was not in the list anymore so it was a no-op and so
safe.  It is no longer safe as after list_del_rcu we may not touch
the list_head.
An audit shows that export_rdev is called:
  - after unbind_rdev_from_array, in which case the delete has
     already been done,
  - after bind_rdev_to_array fails, in which case the delete isn't needed.
  - before the device has been put on a list at all (e.g. in
      add_new_disk where reading the superblock fails).
  - and in autorun devices after a failure when the device is on a
      different list.

So remove the list_del_init call from export_rdev, and add it back
immediately before the called to export_rdev for that last case.

Note also that ->same_set is sometimes used for lists other than
mddev->list (e.g. candidates).  In these cases rcu is not needed.

f2ea68cf42 md: only count actual openers as access which prevent a 'stop'
Open isn't the only thing that increments ->active.  e.g. reading
/proc/mdstat will increment it briefly.  So to avoid false positives
in testing for concurrent access, introduce a new counter that counts
just the number of times the md device it open.

d07bd3bcc4 md: Fix check for overlapping devices.
The checks in overlaps() expect all parameters either in block-based
or sector-based quantities. However, its single caller passes two
rdev->data_offset arguments as well as two rdev->size arguments, the
former being sector counts while the latter are measured in 1K blocks.

This could cause rdev_size_store() to accept an invalid size from user
space. Fix it by passing only sector-based quantities to overlaps().

d7027458d6 md: Tidy up rdev_size_store a bit:
- used strict_strtoull in place of simple_strtoull
 - use my_mddev in place of rdev->mddev (they have the same value)
and more significantly,
 - don't adjust mddev->size to fit, rather reject changes which make
   rdev->size smaller than mddev->size

Adjusting mddev->size is a hangover from bind_rdev_to_array which
does a similar thing.  But it really is a better design to insist that
mddev->size is set as required, then the rdev->sizes are set to allow
for that.  The previous way invites confusion.

d71f9f88d7 md: Make update_size() take the number of sectors.
Changing the internal representations of sizes of raid devices
from 1K blocks to sector counts (512B units) is desirable because
it allows to get rid of many divisions/multiplications and unnecessary
casts that are present in the current code.

This patch is a first step in this direction. It replaces the old
1K-based "size" argument of update_size() by "num_sectors" and
fixes up its two callers.

df5b20cf68 md: Better control of when do_md_stop is allowed to stop the array.
do_md_stop check the number of active users before allowing the array
to be stopped.
Two problems:
  1/ it assumes the request is coming through an open file descriptor
     (via ioctl) so it allows for that.  This is not always the case.
  2/ it doesn't do the check it the array hasn't been activated.
     This is not good for cases when we use an inactive array to hold

e35259a953 tun: Persistent devices can get stuck in xoff state
The scenario goes like this. App stops reading from tun/tap.
TX queue gets full and driver does netif_stop_queue().
App closes fd and TX queue gets flushed as part of the cleanup.
Next time the app opens tun/tap and starts reading from it but
the xoff state is not cleared. We're stuck.
Normally xoff state is cleared when netdev is brought up. But
in the case of persistent devices this happens only during
initial setup.

The fix is trivial. If device is already up when an app opens
it we clear xoff state and that gets things moving again.

	DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0068

and analyzed it:

  "The register %ecx looks innocent but is very important here. The disassembly:

       mov    %edx,%ecx
       shr    $0x2,%ecx
       rep stos %eax,%es:(%edi) <-- the fault

   So %ecx has been loaded from %edx... which is 0x6b6b6b6b/POISON_FREE.
   (0x6b6b6b6b >> 2 == 0x1adadada.)

   %ecx is the counter for the memset, from here:

       memset(object, 0, c->objsize);

  i.e. %ecx was loaded from c->objsize, so "c" must have been freed.
  Where did "c" come from? Uh-oh...

       c = get_cpu_slab(s, smp_processor_id());

  This looks like it has very much to do with CPU hotplug/unplug. Is
  there a race between SLUB/hotplug since the CPU slab is used after it
  has been freed?"

Good analysis.

Yeah, it's possible that a caller of kmem_cache_alloc() -> slab_alloc()
can be migrated on another CPU right after local_irq_restore() and
before memset().  The inital cpu can become offline in the mean time (or
a migration is a consequence of the CPU going offline) so its
'kmem_cache_cpu' structure gets freed ( slab_cpuup_callback).

At some point of time the caller continues on another CPU having an
obsolete pointer...

96a8e13ed4 exec: fix stack excutability without PT_GNU_STACK
Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.

Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup.  Checking through
our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

70ff05554f Fix PREEMPT_RCU without HOTPLUG_CPU
PREEMPT_RCU without HOTPLUG_CPU is broken.  The rcu_online_cpu is called
to initially populate rcu_cpu_online_map with all online CPUs when the
hotplug event handler is installed, and also to populate the map with
CPUs as they come online.  The former case is meant to happen with and
without HOTPLUG_CPU, but without HOTPLUG_CPU, the rcu_offline_cpu
function is no-oped -- while it still gets called, it does not set the
rcu CPU map.

With a blank RCU CPU map, grace periods get to tick by completely
oblivious to active RCU read side critical sections.  This results in
free-before-grace bugs.

Fix is obvious once the problem is known. (Also, change __devinit to
__cpuinit so the function gets thrown away on !HOTPLUG_CPU kernels).

e988cf1cfe ocfs2: Fix flags in ocfs2_file_lock
The stack-glue merge changed the way we use flags in dlmglue in that we now
use the fs/dlm equivalents. Unfortunately, a merge error left the new flock
code only partially updated. This took a while to show up though, because
the lock level constants are actually identical between o2dlm and fs/dlm.
The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is
eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm().

872ac8743c crypto: chainiv - Invoke completion function
When chainiv postpones requests it never calls their completion functions.
This causes symptoms such as memory leaks when IPsec is in use.

a361ee5cb8 x86: fix /dev/mem compatibility under PAT
Add ioremap_default(), which gives a sane mapping without worrying about
type conflicts.

Use it in /dev/mem read in place of ioremap(), as with ioremap(),
any mapping of the region (other than UC_MINUS) will cause a conflict
and failure of /dev/mem read.

Should address the vbetest failure reported at:

dc7fab8b3b sched: fix cpu hotplug
I think we may have a race between try_to_wake_up() and
migrate_live_tasks() -> move_task_off_dead_cpu() when the later one
may end up looping endlessly.

Interrupts are enabled on other CPUs when migration_call(CPU_DEAD, ...) is
called so we may get a race between try_to_wake_up() and
migrate_live_tasks() -> move_task_off_dead_cpu(). The former one may push
a task out of a dead CPU causing the later one to loop endlessly.

| That's exactly what explains a dump I got yesterday. Thanks for fixing! :)
