host bridge _CRS:

Min Relocatability : MinFixed
Max Relocatability : MaxFixed
Address Minimum : CFF00000 (_MIN)
Address Maximum : FEBFFFFF (_MAX)
Address Length : 3EE10000 (_LEN)
This is invalid per spec (ACPI 4.0, 6.4.3.5) because it's a fixed size,
fixed location descriptor, but _LEN != _MAX - _MIN + 1.
Based on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15480#c15, I think
Windows handles this by truncating the window so it fits between _MIN and
_MAX. I also verified this by modifying the SeaBIOS DSDT and booting
Windows 2008 R2 with qemu.
This patch makes Linux truncate the window, too, which fixes:

mmc: fix incorrect interpretation of card type bits

In version 4.4 two of the reserved bits were designated for identifying

instead of ignoring them as it should.
This patch makes mmc_read_ext_csd() ignore the CARD_TYPE bits that are

reiserfs: properly honor read-only devices
The reiserfs journal behaves inconsistently when determining whether to
allow a mount of a read-only device.
This is due to the use of the continue_replay variable to short circuit
the journal scanning. If it's set, it's assumed that there are
transactions to replay, but there may not be. If it's unset, it's assumed
that there aren't any, and that may not be the case either.
I've observed two failure cases:
1) Where a clean file system on a read-only device refuses to mount
2) Where a clean file system on a read-only device passes the
optimization and then tries writing the journal header to update
the latest mount id.
The former is easily observable by using a freshly created file system on
a read-only loopback device.
This patch moves the check into journal_read_transaction, where it can
bail out before it's about to replay a transaction. That way it can go
through and skip transactions where appropriate, yet still refuse to mount
a file system with outstanding transactions.

Commit 57fe60df ("reiserfs: add atomic addition of selinux attributes
during inode creation") contains a bug that will cause it to oops when
mounting a file system that didn't previously contain extended attributes
on a system using security.* xattrs.
The issue is that while creating the privroot during mount
reiserfs_security_init calls reiserfs_xattr_jcreate_nblocks which
dereferences the xattr root. The xattr root doesn't exist, so we get an
oops.
In 2.6.34-rc1, removing vhost_net module causes an oops in sync_mm_rss
(called from do_exit) when workqueue is destroyed. This does not happen
on net-next, or with vhost on top of to 2.6.33.
The issue seems to be introduced by 34e55232e59f7b19050267a05ff1226e5cd122a5 ("mm: avoid false sharing of
mm_counter) which added sync_mm_rss() that is passed task->mm, and
dereferences it without checking. If task is a kernel thread, mm might be
NULL. I think this might also happen e.g. with aio.
This patch fixes the oops by calling sync_mm_rss when task->mm is set to
NULL. I also added BUG_ON to detect any other cases where counters get
incremented while mm is NULL.
(note: handle_rx_net is a work item using workqueue in question).
sync_mm_rss+0x33/0x6f gave me a hint. I also tried reverting 34e55232e59f7b19050267a05ff1226e5cd122a5 and the oops goes away.
The module in question calls use_mm and later unuse_mm from a kernel
thread. It is when this kernel thread is destroyed that the crash
happens.

tmpfs: handle MPOL_LOCAL mount option properly
commit 71fe804b6d5 (mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in
shmem_sb_info) added mpol=local mount option. but its feature is broken
since it was born. because such code always return 1 (i.e. mount
failure).
Fix an 'oops' when a tmpfs mount point is mounted with the mpol=default
mempolicy.
Upon remounting a tmpfs mount point with 'mpol=default' option, the mount
code crashed with a null pointer dereference. The initial problem report
was on 2.6.27, but the problem exists in mainline 2.6.34-rc as well. On
examining the code, we see that mpol_new returns NULL if default mempolicy
was requested. This 'NULL' mempolicy is accessed to store the node mask
resulting in oops.

mm/ksm.c is doing an unneeded _notify in write_protect_page.
ksm.c's write_protect_page implements a lockless means of verifying a page
does not have any users of the page which are not accounted for via other
kernel tracking means. It does this by removing the writable pte with TLB
flushes, checking the page_count against the total known users, and then
using set_pte_at_notify to make it a read-only entry.
An unneeded mmu_notifier callout is made in the case where the known users
does not match the page_count. In that event, we are inserting the
identical pte and there is no need for the set_pte_at_notify, but rather
the simpler set_pte_at suffices.

cpu_relax() is documented in volatile-considered-harmful.txt to be a
memory barrier. However, everyone with the exception of Blackfin and
possibly ia64 defines cpu_relax() to be a compiler barrier.
Make the documentation reflect the general concensus.
Linus sayeth:
: I don't think it was ever the intention that it would be seen as anything
: but a compiler barrier, although it is obviously implied that it might
: well perform some per-architecture actions that have "memory barrier-like"

:
: After all, the whole and only point of the "cpu_relax()" thing is to tell
: the CPU that we're busy-looping on some event.
:
: And that "event" might be (and often is) about reading the same memory
: location over and over until it changes to what we want it to be. So it's
: quite possible that on various architectures the "cpu_relax()" could be
: about making sure that such a tight loop on loads doesn't starve cache
: transactions, for example - and as such look a bit like a memory barrier
: from a CPU standpoint.

: But it's not meant to have any kind of architectural memory ordering

firewire: core: align driver match with modalias
The driver match strategy was:
- Match vendor/model/specifier/version of the unit directory.
- If that was a miss, match vendor from the root directory and
model/specifier/version of the unit directory.
This was inconsistent with how the modalias string was constructed
until recently (take vendor/model from root directory and specifier/
version from unit directory). It was also inconsistent with how it is
done since the parent commit:
- Use vendor/model/specifier/version of the unit directory if possible,
- fall back to one or more of vendor/model/specifier/version from the
root directory depending on which ones are not present at the unit
directory.
Fix this inconsistency by sharing the ROM scanner function between
modalias printer function and driver match function.

firewire: core: fix Model_ID in modalias
The modalias string of devices that represent units on a FireWire node
did not show Module_ID entries within unit directories. This was
because firewire-core searched only the root directory of the
configuration ROM for a Model_ID entry.
We now search first the root directory, then the unit directory. IOW
honor a unit directory's Model_ID if present, otherwise fall back to the
root directory's model ID (if present).
Furthermore, apply the same change to Vendor_ID. This had the same
issue but it was less apparent because most devices provide Vendor_ID
only in the root directory.
And finally, also use this strategy for the remaining two IDs in the
modalias, Specifier_ID and Version. It does not actually make sense to
look for them elsewhere than in the unit directory because they are
mandatory there. However, a uniform search order simplifies the
implementation and has no adverse affect in practice.
Side notes:
- The older counterpart of this, nodemgr.c of ieee1394, looked for
Vendor_ID first in the root directory, then in the unit directory,
and for Model_ID only in the unit directory.
- There is a single mainline driver which requires Vendor_ID and
Model_ID --- the firedtv driver. This one worked because FireDTVs
provide Vendor_ID in the root directory and Model_ID identically in
root directory and unit directory.
- Apart from firedtv, there are currently no drivers known to me
(including userspace drivers) that look at the Vendor_ID or Model_ID
of the modalias.

PCI quirk: RS780/RS880: work around missing MSI initialization
AMD says in section 2.5.4 (GFX MSI Enable) of #43291 (AMD 780G Family
Register Programming Requirements):
The SBIOS must enable internal graphics MSI capability in GCCFG by
setting the following: NBCFG.NB_CNTL.STRAP_MSI_ENABLE='1'
Quite a few BIOS writers misinterpret this sentence and think that
enabling MSI is an optional feature. However, clearing that bit just
prevents delivery of MSI messages but does not remove the MSI PCI
capabilities registers, and so leaves these devices unusable for any
driver that attempts to use MSI.
Setting that bit is not possible after the BIOS has locked down the
configuration registers, so we have to manually disable MSI for the
affected devices.
This fixes the codec communication errors in the HDA driver when
accessing the HDMI audio device, and allows us to get rid of the
overcautious quirk in radeon_irq_kms.c.
