arch/x86/kernel/e820.c: quiet sparse noise about plain integer as NULL pointer
The last parameter to sort() is a pointer to the function used to swap
items. This parameter should be NULL, not 0, when not used. This quiets
the following sparse warning:

vrtc: change its year offset from 1960 to 1972
Real world year equals the value in vrtc YEAR register plus an offset. We
used 1960 for original developepment as the offset to make leap year
consistent, but for a device's first use, its YEAR register is 0 and the
system year will be parsed as 1960 which is not a valid UNIX time and will
cause many applications to fail mysteriously. Devices use 1972 instead to
fix this issue.

x86: fix mmap random address range
On x86_32 casting the unsigned int result of get_random_int() to long may
result in a negative value. On x86_32 the range of mmap_rnd() therefore
was -255 to 255. The 32bit mode on x86_64 used 0 to 255 as intended.

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c: fix Oops on container destroy
Problem:
A repeatable Oops can be caused if a container with networking
unshared is destroyed when it has nf_conntrack entries yet to expire.
A copy of the oops follows below. A perl program generating the oops
repeatably is attached inline below.
Analysis:
The oops is called from cleanup_net when the namespace is
destroyed. conntrack iterates through outstanding events and calls
death_by_timeout on each of them, which in turn produces a call to
ctnetlink_conntrack_event. This calls nf_netlink_has_listeners, which
oopses because net->nfnl is NULL.
The perl program generates the container through fork() then
clone(NS_NEWNET). I does not explicitly set up netlink
explicitly set up netlink, but I presume it was set up else net->nfnl
would have been NULL earlier (i.e. when an earlier connection
timed out). This would thus suggest that net->nfnl is made NULL
during the destruction of the container, which I think is done by
nfnetlink_net_exit_batch.
I can see that the various subsystems are deinitialised in the opposite
order to which the relevant register_pernet_subsys calls are called,
and both nf_conntrack and nfnetlink_net_ops register their relevant
subsystems. If nfnetlink_net_ops registered later than nfconntrack,
then its exit routine would have been called first, which would cause
the oops described. I am not sure there is anything to prevent this
happening in a container environment.
Whilst there's perhaps a more complex problem revolving around ordering
of subsystem deinit, it seems to me that missing a netlink event on a
container that is dying is not a disaster. An early check for net->nfnl
being non-NULL in ctnetlink_conntrack_event appears to fix this. There
may remain a potential race condition if it becomes NULL immediately
after being checked (I am not sure any lock is held at this point or
how synchronisation for subsystem deinitialization works).
Patch:
The patch attached should apply on everything from 2.6.26 (if not before)
onwards; it appears to be a problem on all kernels. This was taken against
Ubuntu-3.0.0-11.17 which is very close to 3.0.4. I have torture-tested it
with the above perl script for 15 minutes or so; the perl script hung the
machine within 20 seconds without this patch.
Applicability:
If this is the right solution, it should be applied to all stable kernels
as well as head. Apart from the minor overhead of checking one variable
against NULL, it can never 'do the wrong thing', because if net->nfnl
is NULL, an oops will inevitably result. Therefore, checking is a reasonable
thing to do unless it can be proven than net->nfnl will never be NULL.
Check net->nfnl for NULL in ctnetlink_conntrack_event to avoid Oops on
container destroy

Since commit 4a31a334, the name of this misc device is not initialized,
which leads to a funny device named /dev/(null) being created and
/proc/misc containing an entry with just a number but no name. The latter
leads to complaints by cryptsetup, which caused me to investigate this

The implementation on commit [08a1f5eb: ALSA: hda - Check NO_PRESENCE

The spec gives the reversed bit definition. But, following the spec
also causes to change so many existing device configurations, thus we
can't change it so easily for now. For 3.2-rc1, it's safer to revert
this check (actually this patch comments out the code).
We may re-introduced the fixed version once after the wider test-case
coverages are done.

This patch fixes the missing initialization of DACs when no mixer is
assigned to them.
