revert "drivers/video/s3c-fb.c: fix clock setting for Samsung SoC Framebuffer"
Fix divide by zero and broken output. Commit 600ce1a0fa ("fix clock
setting for Samsung SoC Framebuffer") introduced a mandatory refresh
parameter to the platform data for the S3C framebuffer but did not
introduce any validation code, causing existing platforms (none of which
have refresh set) to divide by zero whenever the framebuffer is
configured, generating warnings and unusable output.
Ben Dooks noted several problems with the patch:
- The platform data supplies the pixclk directly and should already
have taken care of the refresh rate.
- The addition of a window ID parameter doesn't help since only the
root framebuffer can control the pixclk.
- pixclk is specified in picoseconds (rather than Hz) as the patch
assumed.
and suggests reverting the commit so do that. Without fixing this no
mainline user of the driver will produce output.

nommu: fix shared mmap after truncate shrinkage problems
Fix a problem in NOMMU mmap with ramfs whereby a shared mmap can happen
over the end of a truncation. The problem is that
ramfs_nommu_check_mappings() checks that the reduced file size against the
VMA tree, but not the vm_region tree.
The following sequence of events can cause the problem:
Mapping 'a' creates a vm_region covering 32KB of the file. Mapping 'b'
sees that the vm_region from 'a' is covering the region it wants and so
shares it, pinning it in memory.
Mapping 'a' then goes away and the file is truncated to the end of VMA
'b'. However, the region allocated by 'a' is still in effect, and has
_not_ been reduced.
Mapping 'c' is then created, and because there's a vm_region covering the
desired region, get_unmapped_area() is _not_ called to repeat the check,
and the mapping is granted, even though the pages from the latter half of
the mapping have been discarded.
However:
d = mmap(NULL, 16 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
Mapping 'd' should work, and should end up sharing the region allocated by
'a'.
To deal with this, we shrink the vm_region struct during the truncation,
lest do_mmap_pgoff() take it as licence to share the full region
automatically without calling the get_unmapped_area() file op again.

nommu: fix race between ramfs truncation and shared mmap
Fix the race between the truncation of a ramfs file and an attempt to make
a shared mmap of region of that file.
The problem is that do_mmap_pgoff() calls f_op->get_unmapped_area() to
verify that the file region is made of contiguous pages and to find its
base address - but there isn't any locking to guarantee this region until
vma_prio_tree_insert() is called by add_vma_to_mm().
Note that moving the functionality into f_op->mmap() doesn't help as that
is also called before vma_prio_tree_insert().
Instead make ramfs_nommu_check_mappings() grab nommu_region_sem whilst it
does its checks. This means that this function will wait whilst mmaps
take place.

Due to prototype mismatch, print_block_size() will sprintf() into
*attribute instead of *buf, hence user space will read the initial
zeros from *buf:
$ hexdump /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes 0000000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000008
After patch:
cat /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes

Current mem_cgroup_force_empty() only ensures mem->res.usage == 0 on
success. But this doesn't guarantee memcg's LRU is really empty, because
there are some cases in which !PageCgrupUsed pages exist on memcg's LRU.
For example:
- Pages can be uncharged by its owner process while they are on LRU.
- race between mem_cgroup_add_lru_list() and __mem_cgroup_uncharge_common().
So there can be a case in which the usage is zero but some of the LRUs are not empty.
OTOH, mem_cgroup_del_lru_list(), which can be called asynchronously with
rmdir, accesses the mem_cgroup, so this access can cause a problem if it
races with rmdir because the mem_cgroup might have been freed by rmdir.
Actually, I saw a bug which seems to be caused by this race.
The problem here is pages on LRU may contain pointer to stale memcg. To
make res->usage to be 0, all pages on memcg must be uncharged or moved to
another(parent) memcg. Moved page_cgroup have already removed from
original LRU, but uncharged page_cgroup contains pointer to memcg withou
PCG_USED bit. (This asynchronous LRU work is for improving performance.)
If PCG_USED bit is not set, page_cgroup will never be added to memcg's
LRU. So, about pages not on LRU, they never access stale pointer. Then,
what we have to take care of is page_cgroup _on_ LRU list. This patch
fixes this problem by making mem_cgroup_force_empty() visit all LRUs
before exiting its loop and guarantee there are no pages on its LRU.

inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 2
but after this patch inotify would return watch descriptors like so:
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
inotify_rm_watch(X, 1);
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
which I saw as equivalent to opening an fd where
open(file) = 1;
close(1);
open(file) = 1;
seemed perfectly reasonable. The issue is that quite a bit of userspace
apparently relies on the behavior in which watch descriptors will not be
quickly reused. KDE relies on it, I know some selinux packages rely on
it, and I have heard complaints from other random sources such as debian
bug 558981.
Although the man page implies what we do is ok, we broke userspace so
this patch almost reverts us to the old behavior. It is still slightly
racey and I have patches that would fix that, but they are rather large
and this will fix it for all real world cases. The race is as follows:
- task1 creates a watch and blocks in idr_new_watch() before it updates
the hint.
- task2 creates a watch and updates the hint.
- task1 updates the hint with it's older wd
- task removes the watch created by task2
- task adds a new watch and will reuse the wd originally given to task2
it requires moving some locking around the hint (last_wd) but this should
solve it for the real world and be -stable safe.
As a side effect this patch papers over a bug in the lib/idr code which
is causing a large number WARN's to pop on people's system and many
reports in kerneloops.org. I'm working on the root cause of that idr
bug seperately but this should make inotify immune to that issue.

Many platform support this feature, and it can provide significant

So disable the feature by default, but allow users to opt-in to the

ipv6: skb_dst() can be NULL in ipv6_hop_jumbo().
This fixes CERT-FI FICORA #341748
Discovered by Olli Jarva and Tuomo Untinen from the CROSS
project at Codenomicon Ltd.
Just like in CVE-2007-4567, we can't rely upon skb_dst() being
non-NULL at this point. We fixed that in commit e76b2b2567b83448c2ee85a896433b96150c92e6 ("[IPV6]: Do no rely on
skb->dst before it is assigned.")
Complicating analysis further, this bug can only trigger when network
namespaces are enabled in the build. When namespaces are turned off,
the dev_net() does not evaluate it's argument, so the dereference
would not occur.
So, for a long time, namespaces couldn't be turned on unless SYSFS was
disabled. Therefore, this code has largely been disabled except by
people turning it on explicitly for namespace development.

tg3: Fix std rx prod ring handling
There are some tg3 devices that require the driver to post new rx
buffers in smaller increments. Commit 4361935afe3abc3e5a93006b99197fac1fabbd50, "tg3: Consider
rx_std_prod_idx a hw mailbox" changed how the driver tracks the rx
producer ring updates, but it does not make any special considerations
for the above-mentioned devices. For those devices, it is possible for
the driver to hit the special case path, which updates the hardware
mailbox register but skips updating the shadow software mailbox member.
If the special case path represents the final mailbox update for this
ISR iteration, the hardware and software mailbox values will be out of
sync. Ultimately, this will cause the driver to use a stale mailbox
value on the next iteration, which will appear to the hardware as a
large rx buffer update. Bad things ensue.
The fix is to update the software shadow mailbox member when the special
case path is taken.
