md: only count actual openers as access which prevent a 'stop'
Open isn't the only thing that increments ->active. e.g. reading
/proc/mdstat will increment it briefly. So to avoid false positives
in testing for concurrent access, introduce a new counter that counts
just the number of times the md device it open.

tun: Persistent devices can get stuck in xoff state
The scenario goes like this. App stops reading from tun/tap.
TX queue gets full and driver does netif_stop_queue().
App closes fd and TX queue gets flushed as part of the cleanup.
Next time the app opens tun/tap and starts reading from it but
the xoff state is not cleared. We're stuck.
Normally xoff state is cleared when netdev is brought up. But
in the case of persistent devices this happens only during
initial setup.
The fix is trivial. If device is already up when an app opens
it we clear xoff state and that gets things moving again.

"The register %ecx looks innocent but is very important here. The disassembly:
mov %edx,%ecx

So %ecx has been loaded from %edx... which is 0x6b6b6b6b/POISON_FREE.
(0x6b6b6b6b >> 2 == 0x1adadada.)
%ecx is the counter for the memset, from here:
memset(object, 0, c->objsize);
i.e. %ecx was loaded from c->objsize, so "c" must have been freed.
Where did "c" come from? Uh-oh...
c = get_cpu_slab(s, smp_processor_id());
This looks like it has very much to do with CPU hotplug/unplug. Is
there a race between SLUB/hotplug since the CPU slab is used after it
has been freed?"
Good analysis.
Yeah, it's possible that a caller of kmem_cache_alloc() -> slab_alloc()
can be migrated on another CPU right after local_irq_restore() and
before memset(). The inital cpu can become offline in the mean time (or
a migration is a consequence of the CPU going offline) so its
'kmem_cache_cpu' structure gets freed ( slab_cpuup_callback).
At some point of time the caller continues on another CPU having an
obsolete pointer...
Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.
Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup. Checking through
our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is
eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm().
Add ioremap_default(), which gives a sane mapping without worrying about
type conflicts.
Use it in /dev/mem read in place of ioremap(), as with ioremap(),
any mapping of the region (other than UC_MINUS) will cause a conflict
and failure of /dev/mem read.
I think we may have a race between try_to_wake_up() and
migrate_live_tasks() -> move_task_off_dead_cpu() when the later one
may end up looping endlessly.
Interrupts are enabled on other CPUs when migration_call(CPU_DEAD, ...) is

Correct hash flushing from huge_ptep_set_wrprotect()
As Andy Whitcroft recently pointed out, the current powerpc version of
huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() has a bug. It just calls ptep_set_wrprotect()
which in turn calls pte_update() then hpte_need_flush() with the 'huge'
argument set to 0. This will cause hpte_need_flush() to flush the wrong
hash entries (of any). Andy's fix for this is already in the powerpc
tree as commit 016b33c4958681c24056abed8ec95844a0da80a3.
I have confirmed this is a real bug, not masked by some other
synchronization, with a new testcase for libhugetlbfs. A process write
a (MAP_PRIVATE) hugepage mapping, fork(), then alter the mapping and
have the child incorrectly see the second write.
Therefore, this should be fixed for 2.6.26, and for the stable tree.
Here is a suitable patch for 2.6.26, which I think will also be suitable
for the stable tree (neither of the headers in question has been changed
much recently).
It is cut down slighlty from Andy's original version, in that it does
not include a 32-bit version of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect(). Currently,
hugepages are not supported on any 32-bit powerpc platform. When they
are, a suitable 32-bit version can be added - the only 32-bit hardware
which supports hugepages does not use the conventional hashtable MMU and
so will have different needs anyway.

is not interface specific but device specific, for example things like
periodic work for link tuners.
This patch will move the flush_workqueue() call to directly behind
the call to ops->stop() to make sure the workqueue is only flushed
when all interfaces are gone and there really shouldn't be any scheduled
work in the drivers left.

mac80211: move netif_carrier_on to after ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify

new association state may cause a race (tx frames may be sent before
configuration is done)
