The devcgroup_inode_permission() hook in the devices whitelist cgroup has
always bypassed access checks on fifos. But the mknod hook did not. The
devices whitelist is only about block and char devices, and fifos can't
even be added to the whitelist, so fifos can't be created at all except by
tasks which have 'a' in their whitelist (meaning they have access to all
devices).
Fix the behavior by bypassing access checks to mkfifo.

The race is calling cgroup_clone() while umounting the ns cgroup subsys,
and thus cgroup_clone() might access invalid cgroup_fs, or kill_sb() is
called after cgroup_clone() created a new dir in it.
The BUG I triggered is BUG_ON(root->number_of_cgroups != 1);
With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.
The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).
This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

If an interrupt comes in during the rb_set_commit_to_write and
pushes the tail page forward just at the right time, the commit
updates will miss the adding of the interrupt data. This will
cause the commit pointer to cease from moving forward.
If an interrupt goes off after the setting of the local variable
tail_page and before incrementing the write index of that page,
the interrupt could push the commit forward to the next page.
Later a check is made to see if interrupts pushed the buffer around
the entire ring buffer by comparing the next page to the last commited
page. This can produce a false positive if the interrupt had pushed
the commit page forward as stated above.
The paths in a DFS request are supposed to only have a single preceding
backslash, but we are sending them with a double backslash. This is
exposing a bug in Windows where it also sends a path in the response
that has a double backslash.
The existing code that builds the mount option string however expects a
double backslash prefix in a couple of places when it tries to use the
path returned by build_path_from_dentry. Fix compose_mount_options to
expect properly formed DFS paths (single backslash at front).
Also clean up error handling in that function. There was a possible
NULL pointer dereference and situations where a partially built option
string would be returned.

edac: fix edac core deadlock when removing a device
When deleting an edac device, we have to wait for its edac_dev.work to be
completed before deleting the whole edac_dev structure. Since we have no
idea which work in current edac_poller's workqueue is the work we are
conerned about, we wait for all work in the edac_poller's workqueue to be
proceseed. This is done via flush_cpu_workqueue() which inserts a
wq_barrier into the tail of the workqueue and then sleeping on the
completion of this wq_barrier. The edac_poller will wake up sleepers when
it is found.
EDAC core creates only one kernel worker thread, edac_poller, to run the
works of all current edac devices. They share the same callback function
of edac_device_workq_function(), which would grab the mutex of
device_ctls_mutex first before it checks the device. This is exactly
where edac_poller and rmmod would have a great chance to deadlock.
In below call trace of rmmod > ... >
edac_device_del_device >
edac_device_workq_teardown > flush_workqueue > flush_cpu_workqueue,
device_ctls_mutex would have already been grabbed by
edac_device_del_device(). So, on one hand rmmod would sleep on the
completion of a wq_barrier, holding device_ctls_mutex; on the other hand
edac_poller would be blocked on the same mutex when it's running any one
of works of existing edac evices(Note, this edac_dev.work is likely to be
totally irrelevant to the one that is being removed right now)and never
would have a chance to run the work of above wq_barrier to wake rmmod up.
edac_device_workq_teardown() should not be called within the critical
region of device_ctls_mutex. Just like is done in edac_pci_del_device()
and edac_mc_del_mc(), where edac_pci_workq_teardown() and
edac_mc_workq_teardown() are called after related mutex are released.
Moreover, an edac_dev.work should check first if it is being removed. If
this is the case, then it should bail out immediately. Since not all of
existing edac devices are to be removed, this "shutting flag" should be
contained to edac device being removed. The current edac_dev.op_state can
be used to serve this purpose.
The original deadlock problem and the solution have been witnessed and
tested on actual hardware. Without the solution, rmmod an edac driver
would result in below deadlock:

logical if a cpu doesn't drop the version)... if so, the comparison with
memcmp() for the full 'struct cpu_signature' is wrong... and that's how one of
the aforementioned 'if' sections might have been triggered - leading to a
deadlock.
Obviously, in my tests I simulated loading/resuming with the ucode of the same

issue has never popped up.
I'd appreciate if someone with an appropriate system might give a try to the

irda: Add irda_skb_cb qdisc related padding
We need to pad irda_skb_cb in order to keep it safe accross dev_queue_xmit()
calls. This is some ugly and temporary hack triggered by recent qisc code
changes.
Even though it fixes bugzilla.kernel.org bug #11795, it will be replaced by a
proper fix before 2.6.29 is released.

cifs: fix buffer overrun in parse_DFS_referrals
While testing a kernel with memory poisoning enabled, I saw some warnings
about the redzone getting clobbered when chasing DFS referrals. The
buffer allocation for the unicode converted version of the searchName is
too small and needs to take null termination into account.
