This adds an additional queuing strategy, called pfifo_head_drop,
to remove the oldest skb in the case of an overflow within the queue -
the head element - instead of the last skb (tail). To remove the oldest
skb in congested situations is useful for sensor network environments
where newer packets reflect the superior information.

virtio_net: Make delayed refill more reliable
I have seen RX stalls on a machine that experienced a suspected
OOM. After the stall, the RX buffer is empty on the guest side
and there are exactly 16 entries available on the host side. As
the number of entries is less than that required by a maximal
skb, the host cannot proceed.
The guest did not have a refill job scheduled.
My diagnosis is that an OOM had occured, with the delayed refill
job scheduled. The job was able to allocate at least one skb, but
not enough to overcome the minimum required by the host to proceed.
As the refill job would only reschedule itself if it failed completely
to allocate any skbs, this would lead to an RX stall.
The following patch removes this stall possibility by always
rescheduling the refill job until the ring is totally refilled.
Testing has shown that the RX stall no longer occurs whereas
previously it would occur within a day.

When enabling connection track, fragments are received at PRE_ROUTING HOOK.

When testing the "e1000: enhance frame fragment detection" (and e1000e)

descriptor used with the 1000 mtu test also (re) introduced the
(originally) reported bug, and causes us to need the e1000_clean_tx_irq
"enhance frame fragment detection" fix.
So what has occured here is that 2.6.32 is only vulnerable for mtu <
1500 due to the jumbo specific routines in both e1000 and e1000e.
So, 2.6.32 needs the 2kB buffer len fix for those smaller MTUs, but
is not vulnerable to the original issue reported. It has been pointed
out that this vulnerability needs to be patched in older kernels that
don't have the e1000 jumbo routine. Without the jumbo routines, we
need the "enhance frame fragment detection" fix the e1000, old
e1000e is only vulnerable for < 1500 mtu, and needs a similar
fix. We split the patches up to provide easy backport paths.
There is only a slight bit of extra code when this fix and the
original "enhance frame fragment detection" fixes are applied, so

vmalloc: remove BUG_ON due to racy counting of VM_LAZY_FREE
In free_unmap_area_noflush(), va->flags is marked as VM_LAZY_FREE first, and
then vmap_lazy_nr is increased atomically.
But, in __purge_vmap_area_lazy(), while traversing of vmap_are_list, nr
is counted by checking VM_LAZY_FREE is set to va->flags. After counting
the variable nr, kernel reads vmap_lazy_nr atomically and checks a
BUG_ON condition whether nr is greater than vmap_lazy_nr to prevent
vmap_lazy_nr from being negative.
The problem is that, if interrupted right after marking VM_LAZY_FREE,
increment of vmap_lazy_nr can be delayed. Consequently, BUG_ON
condition can be met because nr is counted more than vmap_lazy_nr.
It is highly probable when vmalloc/vfree are called frequently. This
scenario have been verified by adding delay between marking VM_LAZY_FREE
and increasing vmap_lazy_nr in free_unmap_area_noflush().
Even the vmap_lazy_nr is for checking high watermark, it never be the
strict watermark. Although the BUG_ON condition is to prevent
vmap_lazy_nr from being negative, vmap_lazy_nr is signed variable. So,
it could go down to negative value temporarily.
Consequently, removing the BUG_ON condition is proper.

perf: Honour event state for aux stream data
Anton reported that perf record kept receiving events even after calling
ioctl(PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE). It turns out that FORK,COMM and MMAP
events didn't respect the disabled state and kept flowing in.

Paul questioned the context in which we should call
perf_event_do_pending(). After looking at that I found that it should be
called from IRQ context these days, however the fallback call-site is
placed in softirq context. Ammend this by placing the callback in the IRQ
timer path.

sched: Reassign prev and switch_count when reacquire_kernel_lock() fail
Assume A->B schedule is processing, if B have acquired BKL before and it
need reschedule this time. Then on B's context, it will go to
need_resched_nonpreemptible for reschedule. But at this time, prev and
switch_count are related to A. It's wrong and will lead to incorrect
scheduler statistics.
