be2net: allocate more headroom in incoming skbs
Allocation of 64 bytes in skb headroom is not enough if we have to pull
ethernet + ipv6 + tcp headers, and/or extra tunneling header.
Its currently not noticed because netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align(64) give us
more room, thanks to power-of-two kmalloc() roundups.
Make sure we ask for 128 bytes so that side effects of upcoming patches
from Ian Campbell dont decrease benet rx performance, because of extra
skb head reallocations.

by cnic attempting to access because nic is loading, but being blocked because
of the Recovery state.

In virtualized environments indirect access to the device may not be supported
(depending on the Hypervisor type). Indirect device access was used since in
some harware contexts (i.e. certain chipset and BIOS) every access the driver
makes across the pci is followed by a BIOS initiated Zero Length Read to the
same address. When accessing widebus registers this zero length read corrupts
the serialization of the read/write sequence resulting with errors. To avoid
this problem widebus registers are always accessed via the DMAE or the indirect
interface. However, the 57712x and 578xx devices intercept the zero length read
and so using the indirect interface with these devices is not necessary. Since
PDA is only supported for 57712x and 578xx the indirect access to device was
restricted to 57710 and 57711x.

net: usb: qmi_wwan: New driver for Huawei QMI based WWAN devices
Some WWAN LTE/3G devices based on chipsets from Qualcomm provide
near standard CDC ECM interfaces in addition to the usual serial
interfaces. The Huawei E392/E398 are examples of such devices.
These typically cannot be fully configured using AT commands
over a serial interface. It is necessary to speak the proprietary
Qualcomm MSM Interface (QMI) protocol to the device to enable the
ethernet proxy functionality.
The devices embed the QMI protocol in CDC on the control interface,
using standard CDC commands and notifications. The do not otherwise
use CDC commands for the ethernet function. This driver does
therefore not need access to any other aspects of the control
interface than the descriptors attached to it.
Another driver, cdc-wdm, will provide userspace access to the
QMI protocol independently of this driver. To facilitate this,
this driver avoids binding to the control interface, and uses
only the associated data interface after parsing the common CDC
functional descriptors on the control interface.
You will want both the cdc-wdm and option drivers as companions to
this driver, to have full access to all interfaces and protocols
exported by the device.

ALSA: hda - Fix silent outputs from docking-station jacks of Dell laptops
The recent change of the power-widget handling for IDT codecs caused

partially fixed by the commit f2cbba7602383cd9cdd21f0a5d0b8bd1aad47b33
"ALSA: hda - Fix the lost power-setup of seconary pins after PM resume".
But the line-out on the docking-station is still silent when booted

The remainig bug is that the power-widget is set off in stac92xx_init()
because the pins in cfg->line_out_pins[] aren't checked there properly
but only hp_pins[] are checked in is_nid_hp_pin().
This patch fixes the problem by checking both HP and line-out pins

score: fix off-by-one index into syscall table
If the provided system call number is equal to __NR_syscalls, the
current check will pass and a function pointer just after the system
call table may be called, since sys_call_table is an array with total
size __NR_syscalls.
Whether or not this is a security bug depends on what the compiler puts
immediately after the system call table. It's likely that this won't do
anything bad because there is an additional NULL check on the syscall
entry, but if there happens to be a non-NULL value immediately after the
system call table, this may result in local privilege escalation.
Memory migration fills a pte with a migration entry and it doesn't
update the rss counters. Then it replaces the migration entry with the
new page (or the old one if migration failed). But between these two
passes this pte can be unmaped, or a task can fork a child and it will
get a copy of this migration entry. Nobody accounts for this in the rss
counters.
This patch properly adjust rss counters for migration entries in
zap_pte_range() and copy_one_pte(). Thus we avoid extra atomic
operations on the migration fast-path.

SHM_UNLOCK: fix Unevictable pages stranded after swap
Commit cc39c6a9bbde ("mm: account skipped entries to avoid looping in
find_get_pages") correctly fixed an infinite loop; but left a problem
that find_get_pages() on shmem would return 0 (appearing to callers to
mean end of tree) when it meets a run of nr_pages swap entries.
The only uses of find_get_pages() on shmem are via pagevec_lookup(),
called from invalidate_mapping_pages(), and from shmctl SHM_UNLOCK's
scan_mapping_unevictable_pages(). The first is already commented, and
not worth worrying about; but the second can leave pages on the
Unevictable list after an unusual sequence of swapping and locking.
Fix that by using shmem_find_get_pages_and_swap() (then ignoring the
swap) instead of pagevec_lookup().
But I don't want to contaminate vmscan.c with shmem internals, nor
shmem.c with LRU locking. So move scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() into
shmem.c, renaming it shmem_unlock_mapping(); and rename
check_move_unevictable_page() to check_move_unevictable_pages(), looping
down an array of pages, oftentimes under the same lock.
Leave out the "rotate unevictable list" block: that's a leftover from
when this was used for /proc/sys/vm/scan_unevictable_pages, whose flawed
handling involved looking at pages at tail of LRU.
Was there significance to the sequence first ClearPageUnevictable, then
test page_evictable, then SetPageUnevictable here? I think not, we're
under LRU lock, and have no barriers between those.

SHM_UNLOCK: fix long unpreemptible section
scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() is used to make SysV SHM_LOCKed pages
evictable again once the shared memory is unlocked. It does this with
pagevec_lookup()s across the whole object (which might occupy most of
memory), and takes 300ms to unlock 7GB here. A cond_resched() every
PAGEVEC_SIZE pages would be good.
However, KOSAKI-san points out that this is called under shmem.c's
info->lock, and it's also under shm.c's shm_lock(), both spinlocks.
There is no strong reason for that: we need to take these pages off the
unevictable list soonish, but those locks are not required for it.
So move the call to scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() from shmem.c's
unlock handling up to shm.c's unlock handling. Remove the recently
added barrier, not needed now we have spin_unlock() before the scan.
Use get_file(), with subsequent fput(), to make sure we have a reference
to mapping throughout scan_mapping_unevictable_pages(): that's something
that was previously guaranteed by the shm_lock().
Remove shmctl's lru_add_drain_all(): we don't fault in pages at SHM_LOCK
time, and we lazily discover them to be Unevictable later, so it serves
no purpose for SHM_LOCK; and serves no purpose for SHM_UNLOCK, since
pages still on pagevec are not marked Unevictable.
The original code avoided redundant rescans by checking VM_LOCKED flag
at its level: now avoid them by checking shp's SHM_LOCKED.
The original code called scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() on a locked
area at shm_destroy() time: perhaps we once had accounting cross-checks
which required that, but not now, so skip the overhead and just let
inode eviction deal with them.
Put check_move_unevictable_page() and scan_mapping_unevictable_pages()
under CONFIG_SHMEM (with stub for the TINY case when ramfs is used),
more as comment than to save space; comment them used for SHM_UNLOCK.

proc: clear_refs: do not clear reserved pages
/proc/pid/clear_refs is used to clear the Referenced and YOUNG bits for
pages and corresponding page table entries of the task with PID pid, which
includes any special mappings inserted into the page tables in order to
provide things like vDSOs and user helper functions.
On ARM this causes a problem because the vectors page is mapped as a
global mapping and since ec706dab ("ARM: add a vma entry for the user
accessible vector page"), a VMA is also inserted into each task for this
page to aid unwinding through signals and syscall restarts. Since the
vectors page is required for handling faults, clearing the YOUNG bit (and
subsequently writing a faulting pte) means that we lose the vectors page
*globally* and cannot fault it back in. This results in a system deadlock
on the next exception.
To see this problem in action, just run:
$ echo 1 > /proc/self/clear_refs
on an ARM platform (as any user) and watch your system hang. I think this
has been the case since 2.6.37
This patch avoids clearing the aforementioned bits for reserved pages,
therefore leaving the vectors page intact on ARM. Since reserved pages

We need to write new value if the bit mask fields of new value is not
equal to old value. It does not make sense to write new value only when
all the bit_mask bits are zero.

Commit ef53d9c5e ("kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed
locking") introduced a bug where we can potentially leak
kretprobe_instances since we initialize a hlist head after having used
it.
Initialize the hlist head before using it.

Add support for leds on Bachmann's ot200 visualisation device. The
device has three leds on the back panel (led_err, led_init and led_run)
and can handle up to seven leds on the front panel.
The driver was written by Linutronix on behalf of Bachmann electronic
GmbH. It incorporates feedback from Lars-Peter Clausen

mm: __count_immobile_pages(): make sure the node is online
page_zone() requires an online node otherwise we are accessing NULL
NODE_DATA. This is not an issue at the moment because node_zones are
located at the structure beginning but this might change in the future
so better be careful about that.

We are crashing because we are trying to dereference NULL zone which
came from pfn=0 (struct page ffffea0000000000). According to the boot
log this page is marked reserved:
e820 update range: 0000000000000000 - 0000000000010000 (usable) ==> (reserved)
and early_node_map confirms that:
early_node_map[3] active PFN ranges
1: 0x00000010 -> 0x0000009c
1: 0x00000100 -> 0x000bffa3
1: 0x00100000 -> 0x00240000
The problem is that memory_present works in PAGE_SECTION_MASK aligned
blocks so the reserved range sneaks into the the section as well. This
also means that free_area_init_node will not take care of those reserved
pages and they stay uninitialized.
When we try to read the removable status we walk through all available
sections and hope that the zone is valid for all pages in the section.
But this is not true in this case as the zone and nid are not initialized.
We have only one node in this particular case and it is marked as node=1
(rather than 0) and that made the problem visible because page_to_nid will
return 0 and there are no zones on the node.
Let's check that the zone is valid and that the given pfn falls into its
boundaries and mark the section not removable. This might cause some
false positives, probably, but we do not have any sane way to find out
whether the page is reserved by the platform or it is just not used for
whatever other reasons.

It seems that my sparc64 compiler (gcc-3.4.5) doesn't like the forward
declaration of enums.
Fix this by moving the "enum migrate_mode" definition into its own header
