Btrfs: exclude super blocks when we read in block groups
This has been resulting in a BUT_ON(ret) after btrfs_reserve_extent in
btrfs_cow_file_range. The reason is we don't actually calculate the bytes_super
for a block group until we go to cache it, which means that the space_info can
hand out reservations for space that it doesn't actually have, and we can run
out of data space. This is also a problem if you are using space caching since
we don't ever calculate bytes_super for the block groups. So instead everytime
we read a block group call exclude_super_stripes, which calculates the
bytes_super for the block group so it can be left out of the space_info. Then
whenever caching completes we just call free_excluded_extents so that the super
excluded extents are freed up. Also if we are unmounting and we hit any block
groups that haven't been cached we still need to call free_excluded_extents to
make sure things are cleaned up properly. Thanks,

cifs: don't send an echo request unless NegProt has been done
When the socket to the server is disconnected, the client more or less
immediately calls cifs_reconnect to reconnect the socket. The NegProt
and SessSetup however are not done until an actual call needs to be
made.
With the addition of the SMB echo code, it's possible that the server
will initiate a disconnect on an idle socket. The client will then
reconnect the socket but no NegotiateProtocol request is done. The
SMBEcho workqueue job will then eventually pop, and an SMBEcho will be
sent on the socket. The server will then reject it since no NegProt was
done.
The ideal fix would be to either have the socket not be reconnected
until we plan to use it, or to immediately do a NegProt when the
reconnect occurs. The code is not structured for this however. For now
we must just settle for not sending any echoes until the NegProt is
done.

niu: Fix races between up/down and get_stats.
As reported by Flavio Leitner, there is no synchronization to protect
NIU's get_stats method from seeing a NULL pointer in either
np->rx_rings or np->tx_rings. In fact, as far as ->ndo_get_stats
is concerned, these values are set completely asynchronously.
Flavio attempted to fix this using a RW semaphore, which in fact
works most of the time. However, dev_get_stats() can be invoked
from non-sleepable contexts in some cases, so this fix doesn't
work in all cases.
So instead, control the visibility of the np->{rx,tx}_ring pointers
when the device is being brough up, and use properties of the device
down sequence to our advantage.
In niu_get_stats(), return immediately if netif_running() is false.
The device shutdown sequence first marks the device as not running (by
clearing the __LINK_STATE_START bit), then it performans a
synchronize_rcu() (in dev_deactive_many()), and then finally it
invokes the driver ->ndo_stop() method.
This guarentees that all invocations of niu_get_stats() either see
netif_running() as false, or they see the channel pointers before
->ndo_stop() clears them out.
If netif_running() is true, protect against startup races by loading
the np->{rx,tx}_rings pointer into a local variable, and punting if
it is NULL. Use ACCESS_ONCE to prevent the compiler from reloading
the pointer on us.
Also, during open, control the order in which the pointers and the
ring counts become visible globally using SMP write memory barriers.
We make sure the np->num_{rx,tx}_rings value is stable and visible
before np->{rx,tx}_rings is.
Such visibility control is not necessary on the niu_free_channels()
side because of the RCU sequencing that happens during device down as
described above. We are always guarenteed that all niu_get_stats
calls are finished, or will see netif_running() false, by the time
->ndo_stop is invoked.

agp: ensure GART has an address before enabling it
Some BIOSs (eg. the AMI BIOS on the Asus P4P800 motherboard) don't
initialise the GART address, and pcibios_assign_resources() can ignore it
because it can be marked as a host bridge (see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24392#c5 for details). This
was handled correctly up to 2.6.35, but the pci_enable_device() cleanup in
2.6.36 96576a9e1a0cdb8 ("agp: intel-agp: do not use PCI resources before
pci_enable_device()") means that the kernel tries to enable the GART
before assigning it an address; in such cases the GART overlaps with other
device assignments and ends up being disabled.

According to Ivan Kokshaysky:
There is quite fundamental conflict between the Alpha architecture and
x86 AGP implementation - Alpha is entirely cache coherent by design,
while x86 AGP is not (I mean native AGP DMA transactions, not a PCI over
AGP). There are no such things as non-cacheable mappings or software
support for cache flushing/invalidation on Alpha, so x86 AGP code won't
work on Nautilus.
So there's no point in allowing this driver to be configured on Alpha.

x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after switching mm
Clearing the cpu in prev's mm_cpumask early will avoid the flush tlb
IPI's while the cr3 is still pointing to the prev mm. And this window
can lead to the possibility of bogus TLB fills resulting in strange
failures. One such problematic scenario is mentioned below.
T1. CPU-1 is context switching from mm1 to mm2 context and got a NMI
etc between the point of clearing the cpu from the mm_cpumask(mm1)
and before reloading the cr3 with the new mm2.
T2. CPU-2 is tearing down a specific vma for mm1 and will proceed with
flushing the TLB for mm1. It doesn't send the flush TLB to CPU-1
as it doesn't see that cpu listed in the mm_cpumask(mm1).
T3. After the TLB flush is complete, CPU-2 goes ahead and frees the
page-table pages associated with the removed vma mapping.
T4. CPU-2 now allocates those freed page-table pages for something
else.
T5. As the CR3 and TLB caches for mm1 is still active on CPU-1, CPU-1
can potentially speculate and walk through the page-table caches
and can insert new TLB entries. As the page-table pages are
already freed and being used on CPU-2, this page walk can
potentially insert a bogus global TLB entry depending on the
(random) contents of the page that is being used on CPU-2.
T6. This bogus TLB entry being global will be active across future CR3
changes and can result in weird memory corruption etc.
To avoid this issue, for the prev mm that is handing over the cpu to
another mm, clear the cpu from the mm_cpumask(prev) after the cr3 is
changed.
Marking it for -stable, though we haven't seen any reported failure that
can be attributed to this.
This patch prevents a user space program from calling the RTC_IRQP_SET
ioctl with a negative value of frequency. Also, if this call is make
with a zero value of frequency, there would be a division by zero in the
kernel code.

tracing: Replace syscall_meta_data struct array with pointer array
Currently the syscall_meta structures for the syscall tracepoints are
placed in the __syscall_metadata section, and at link time, the linker
makes one large array of all these syscall metadata structures. On boot
up, this array is read (much like the initcall sections) and the syscall
data is processed.
The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex
structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the
same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they
are suppose to be in an array.
A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the
structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other
architectures (sparc).
Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses
are now put into the __syscall_metadata section. As pointers are always the
natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together
(otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail).
By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still
iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems
with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of
gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers
off a little more.
The __syscall_metadata section is also moved into the .init.data section
as it is now only needed at boot up.

tracepoints: Fix section alignment using pointer array
Make the tracepoints more robust, making them solid enough to handle compiler
changes by not relying on anything based on compiler-specific behavior with
respect to structure alignment. Implement an approach proposed by David Miller:
use an array of const pointers to refer to the individual structures, and export
this pointer array through the linker script rather than the structures per se.
It will consume 32 extra bytes per tracepoint (24 for structure padding and 8
for the pointers), but are less likely to break due to compiler changes.
History:
commit 7e066fb8 tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE()
added the aligned(32) type and variable attribute to the tracepoint structures
to deal with gcc happily aligning statically defined structures on 32-byte
multiples.
One attempt was to use a 8-byte alignment for tracepoint structures by applying
both the variable and type attribute to tracepoint structures definitions and
declarations. It worked fine with gcc 4.5.1, but broke with gcc 4.4.4 and 4.4.5.
The reason is that the "aligned" attribute only specify the _minimum_ alignment
for a structure, leaving both the compiler and the linker free to align on
larger multiples. Because tracepoint.c expects the structures to be placed as an
array within each section, up-alignment cause NULL-pointer exceptions due to the
extra unexpected padding.
