The original code ordered the blocks allocated in the build_height
routine backwards causing excessive disk seeks during a read of the
metadata. This patch reverses the order to try and reduce disk seeks.
Example: A five level metadata tree, I = Inode, P = Pointers, D = Data
You need to read the blocks in the order:
I P5 P4 P3 P2 P1 D
in order to read a single data block. The new code now orders the blocks
in this way. The old code used to order them as:
I P1 P2 P3 P4 P5 D
requiring two extra seeks on average. Note that for files which are
grown by gradual extension rather than by truncate or by llseek/write
at a large offset, this doesn't apply. In the case of writing to a
file linearly, this routine will only be called upon to extend the
height of the tree by one block at a time, so the ordering is
determined by when its called rather than by the internals of the
routine itself. Optimising that part of the ordering is a much
harder problem.

[SCSI] mptfc: race between mptfc_register_dev and mptfc_target_alloc
A race condition exists in mptfc between the thread registering a device
with the fc transport and the scan work generated by the transport.
This race existed prior to the application of the mptfc bug fix patch.
mptfc_register_dev() calls fc_remote_port_add() with the FC_RPORT_ROLE_TARGET
bit set in the rport ids passed to the function. Having this bit set causes
fc_remote_port_add() to schedule a scan of the device.
This scan can execute before mptfc_register_dev() can fill in the dd_data
in the rport structure. When this happens, mptfc_target_alloc() will fail
because dd_data is null.
Attached is a patch which fixes the problem. The patch changes the rport ids
passed to fc_remote_port_add() to not have the TARGET bit set. This prevents
the scan from being scheduled. After mptfc_register_dev() fills in the rport
dd_data field, fc_remote_port_rolechg() is called, changing the role of the
rport to TARGET. Thus, the scan is scheduled after dd_data is filled
in which prevents the failure in mptfc_target_alloc().

Fix races in in destroying various objects. If a destroy routine

and another place drops a reference to the object by doing
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&obj->refcount))

then this is susceptible to a race where the wait_event() and final
freeing of the object occur between the atomic_dec_and_test() and the
wake_up(). And this is a use-after-free, since wake_up() will be
called on part of the already-freed object.
Fix this in mthca by replacing the atomic_t refcounts with plain old
integers protected by a spinlock. This makes it possible to do the
decrement of the reference count and the wake_up() so that it appears
as a single atomic operation to the code waiting on the wait queue.
While touching this code, also simplify mthca_cq_clean(): the CQ being
cleaned cannot go away, because it still has a QP attached to it. So

The problem occurs very early on, when the kernel allocates space for the

EBDA region is not historically reserved in the e820 mapping. When the
bootmap is freed it marks the EBDA region as usable.
If you notice in setup.c there is already code to work around the EBDA

is allocated and doesn't prevent the bootmap from using this range.

Extend the support of attribute groups in class_device's to allow
groups to be created as part of the registration process. This allows
network device's to avoid race between registration and creating
groups.
Note that unlike attributes that are a property of the class object,
the groups are a property of the class_device object. This is done
because there are different types of network devices (wireless for
example).
