tty: Avoid dropping ldisc_mutex over hangup tty re-initialization
A couple of people have hit the WARN_ON() in drivers/char/tty_io.c,
tty_open() that is unhappy about seeing the tty line discipline go away
during the tty hangup. See for example
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14255
and the reason is that we do the tty_ldisc_halt() outside the
ldisc_mutex in order to be able to flush the scheduled work without a
deadlock with vhangup_work.
However, it turns out that we can solve this particular case by
- using "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" in tty_ldisc_halt(), which waits
for just the particular work, rather than synchronizing with any
random outstanding pending work.
This won't deadlock, since the buf.work we synchronize with doesn't
care about the ldisc_mutex, it just flushes the tty ldisc buffers.
- realize that for this particular case, we don't need to wait for any
hangup work, because we are inside the hangup codepaths ourselves.
so as a result we can just drop the flush_scheduled_work() entirely, and
then move the tty_ldisc_halt() call to inside the mutex. That way we
never expose the partially torn down ldisc state to tty_open(), and hold
the ldisc_mutex over the whole sequence.

ACPI: Fix bound checks for copy_from_user in the acpi /proc code
The ACPI /proc write() code takes an unsigned length argument like any write()
function, but then assigned it to a *signed* integer called "len".
Only after this is a sanity check for len done to make it not larger than 4.
Due to the type change a len < 0 is in principle also possible; this patch
adds a check for this.

ARM: 5728/1: Proper prefetch abort handling on ARMv6 and ARMv7
Currently, on ARMv6 and ARMv7, if an application tries to execute
code (or garbage) on non-executable page it hangs. It caused by
incorrect prefetch abort handling. Now every prefetch abort
processes as a translation fault.
To fix this we have to analyze instruction fault status register
to figure out reason why we've got the abort and process it
accordingly.
To make IFSR different from DFSR we set bit 31 which is reserved in
both IFSR and DFSR.
This patch also tries to protect from future hangs on unexpected
exceptions. An application will be killed if unexpected exception
type was received.

ARM: 5727/1: Pass IFSR register to do_PrefetchAbort()
Instruction fault status register, IFSR, was introduced on ARMv6 to
provide status information about the last insturction fault. It
needed for proper prefetch abort handling.
Now we have three prefetch abort model:
* legacy - for CPUs before ARMv6. They doesn't provide neither
IFSR nor IFAR. We simulate IFSR with section translation fault
status for them to generalize code;
* ARMv6 - provides IFSR, but not IFAR;
* ARMv7 - provides both IFSR and IFAR.

ARM: 5740/1: fix valid_phys_addr_range() range check
Commit 1522ac3ec95ff0230e7aa516f86b674fdf72866c
("Fix virtual to physical translation macro corner cases")
breaks the end of memory check in valid_phys_addr_range().
The modified expression results in the apparent /dev/mem size
being 2 bytes smaller than what it actually is.
This patch reworks the expression to correctly check the address,
while maintaining use of a valid address to __pa().

The ATAG_CORE is allowed to be empty. Although this is handled

cfq-iosched: add a knob for desktop interactiveness
This is basically identical to what Vivek Goyal posted, but combined
into one and labelled 'desktop' instead of 'fairness'. The goal
is to continue to improve on the latency side of things as it relates
to interactiveness, keeping the questionable bits under this sysfs
tunable so it would be easy for throughput-only people to turn off.
Apart from adding the interactive sysfs knob, it also adds the
behavioural change of allowing slice idling even if the hardware
does tagged command queuing.

This fixes the problem of not handling the NETDEV_UP event properly
during hot-plug or modprobe of bnx2 after cnic. The handling was
skipped by mistakenly using "else if" to check for the event.
