drivers/platform/x86/sony-laptop.c: fix scancodes
The scancodes returned by the sony-laptop driver for function keys did not
match the scancodes used to remap keys. Also, since the scancode was sent
to the input subsystem after the mapped keysym the /lib/udev/keymap
utility was confused about which scancode to report for which keysym.
This patch fixes the driver so the correct scancode is shown for each key.
It also adds to the documentation a description of where to find the
scancodes.
Before the patch FN/E returned scancode 0x1B, but to remap scancode 0x14
had to be used.

x86, olpc: add debugfs interface for EC commands
Add a debugfs interface for sending commands to the OLPC Embedded
Controller (EC) and reading the responses. The EC provides functionality
for machine identification, battery and AC control, wakeup control, etc.
Having a debugfs interface available is useful for EC development and
debugging.

mm/vmalloc.c: eliminate extra loop in pcpu_get_vm_areas error path
If either of the vas or vms arrays are not properly kzalloced, then the
code jumps to the err_free label.
The err_free label runs a loop to check and free each of the array members
of the vas and vms arrays which is not required for this situation as none
of the array members have been allocated till this point.
Eliminate the extra loop we have to go through by introducing a new label
err_free2 and then jumping to it.

x86, olpc-xo15-sci: enable lid close wakeup control through sysfs
Like most systems, OLPC's ACPI LID switch wakes up the system when the lid
is opened, but not when it is closed.
Under OLPC's opportunistic suspend model, the lid may be closed while the
system was oportunistically suspended with the screen running. In this
event, we want to wake up to turn the screen off.
Enable control of normal ACPI wakeups through lid close events through a
new sysfs attribute "lid_wake_on_closed". When set, and when LID wakeups
are enabled through ACPI, the system will wake up on both open and close
lid events.

acerhdf: lowered default temp fanon/fanoff values
Due to new supported hardware, of which the actual temperature limits of
processor, harddisk and other components are unknown, it feels safer with
lower fanon / fanoff settings.
It won't change much for most people, already using acerhdf, as they use
their own fanon/fanoff variable settings when loading the module.
Furthermore seems like kernel and userspace tools have been improved to
work more efficient and netbooks don't get so hot anymore.

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

memcg: add mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() to fix LRU issue
Commit ef6a3c6311 ("mm: add replace_page_cache_page() function") added a
function replace_page_cache_page(). This function replaces a page in the
radix-tree with a new page. WHen doing this, memory cgroup needs to fix
up the accounting information. memcg need to check PCG_USED bit etc.
In some(many?) cases, 'newpage' is on LRU before calling
replace_page_cache(). So, memcg's LRU accounting information should be
fixed, too.
This patch adds mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() and removes the old hooks.
In that function, old pages will be unaccounted without touching
res_counter and new page will be accounted to the memcg (of old page).
WHen overwriting pc->mem_cgroup of newpage, take zone->lru_lock and avoid
races with LRU handling.
Background:
replace_page_cache_page() is called by FUSE code in its splice() handling.
Here, 'newpage' is replacing oldpage but this newpage is not a newly allocated
page and may be on LRU. LRU mis-accounting will be critical for memory cgroup
because rmdir() checks the whole LRU is empty and there is no account leak.
If a page is on the other LRU than it should be, rmdir() will fail.
