Fix logic error in VMI relocation processing. NOPs would always cause
a BUG_ON to fire because the != RELOCATION_NONE in the first if clause

(which should never happen), falling back to native in that case.
NFS: Ensure PG_writeback is cleared when writeback fails
If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the
memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must
ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared.
Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we
schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the
value of test_set_page_writeback().
The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the
PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

[VLAN]: Allow VLAN interface on top of bridge interface
When a VLAN interface is created on top of a bridge interface and

corrupted when passing through the netfilter code. This is caused by the
VLAN driver not setting the 'protocol' and 'nh' members of the sk_buff

connected to a physical ethernet interface which does not use the
'protocol' and 'nh' members. For a bridge interface, however, these

ide: correctly prevent IDE timer expiry function to run if request was already handled
It is possible for the timer expiry function to run even though the
request has already been handled: ide_timer_expiry() only checks that
the handler is not NULL, but it is possible that we have handled a
request (thus clearing the handler) and then started a new request
(thus starting the timer again, and setting a handler).
A simple way to exhibit this is to set the DMA timeout to 1 jiffy and
run dd: The kernel will panic after a few minutes because
ide_timer_expiry() tries to add a timer when it's already active.
To fix this, we simply add a request generation count that gets
incremented at every interrupt, and check in ide_timer_expiry() that
we have not already handled a new interrupt before running the expiry
function.
