i386: fix file_read_actor() and pipe_read() for original i386 systems
The __copy_to_user_inatomic() calls in file_read_actor() and pipe_read()
are broken on original i386 machines, where WP-works-ok == false, as
__copy_to_user_inatomic() on such systems calls functions which might
sleep and/or contain cond_resched() calls inside of a kmap_atomic()
region.
The original check for WP-works-ok was in access_ok(), but got moved
during the 2.5 series to fix a race vs. swap.
Return the number of bytes to copy in the case where we are in an atomic
region, so the non atomic code pathes in file_read_actor() and
pipe_read() are taken.
This could be optimized to avoid the kmap_atomicby moving the check for
WP-works-ok into fault_in_pages_writeable(), but this is more intrusive
and can be done later.

APPLETALK: Fix a remotely triggerable crash (CVE-2007-1357)
When we receive an AppleTalk frame shorter than what its header says,
we still attempt to verify its checksum, and trip on the BUG_ON() at
the end of function atalk_sum_skb() because of the length mismatch.
This has security implications because this can be triggered by simply
sending a specially crafted ethernet frame to a target victim,
effectively crashing that host. Thus this qualifies, I think, as a
remote DoS. Here is the frame I used to trigger the crash, in npg
format:
<Appletalk Killer>
{
# Ethernet header -----
XX XX XX XX XX XX # Destination MAC
00 00 00 00 00 00 # Source MAC
00 1D # Length
The destination MAC address must be set to those of the victim.
The severity is mitigated by two requirements:
* The target host must have the appletalk kernel module loaded. I
suspect this isn't so frequent.
* AppleTalk frames are non-IP, thus I guess they can only travel on
local networks. I am no network expert though, maybe it is possible
to somehow encapsulate AppleTalk packets over IP.
The bug has been reported back in June 2004:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2979
But it wasn't investigated, and was closed in July 2006 as both
reporters had vanished meanwhile.
This code was new in kernel 2.6.0-test5:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ab442d7e0a76402c12553ee256f756097cae2d2
And not modified since then, so we can assume that vanilla kernels
2.6.0-test5 and later, and distribution kernels based thereon, are
affected.
Note that I still do not know for sure what triggered the bug in the
real-world cases. The frame could have been corrupted by the kernel if
we have a bug hiding somewhere. But more likely, we are receiving the
faulty frame from the network.

While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification

[NET_SCHED]: Fix endless loops caused by inaccurate qlen counters
There are multiple problems related to qlen adjustment that can lead
to an upper qdisc getting out of sync with the real number of packets
queued, leading to endless dequeueing attempts by the upper layer code.
All qdiscs must maintain an accurate q.qlen counter. There are basically
two groups of operations affecting the qlen: operations that propagate
down the tree (enqueue, dequeue, requeue, drop, reset) beginning at the
root qdisc and operations only affecting a subtree or single qdisc
(change, graft, delete class). Since qlen changes during operations from
the second group don't propagate to ancestor qdiscs, their qlen values
become desynchronized.
This patch adds a function to propagate qlen changes up the qdisc tree,
optionally calling a callback function to perform qdisc-internal
maintenance when the child qdisc is deactivated, and converts all
qdiscs to use this where necessary.

On most architectures it doesn't really matter since we don't have
any tables with names that long in the kernel and the structure
