The memory hotplug case involves calling to build_all_zonelists() which
in turns calls in to setup_zone_pageset(). The latter is marked
__meminit while build_all_zonelists() itself has no particular
annotation. build_all_zonelists() is only handed a non-NULL pointer in
the case of memory hotplug through an existing __meminit path, so the
setup_zone_pageset() reference is always safe.
The options as such are either to flag build_all_zonelists() as __ref (as
per __build_all_zonelists()), or to simply discard the __meminit
annotation from setup_zone_pageset().

The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices.
The code for evaluating LDM partitions (in fs/partitions/ldm.c) contains
a bug that causes a kernel oops on certain corrupted LDM partitions.
A kernel subsystem seems to crash, because, after the oops, the kernel no
longer recognizes newly connected storage devices.
The patch validates the value of vblk_size.

Commit 982134ba6261 ("mm: avoid wrapping vm_pgoff in mremap()") fixed
the case of a expanding mapping causing vm_pgoff wrapping when you used
mremap. But there was another case where we expand mappings hiding in
plain sight: the automatic stack expansion.
This fixes that case too.
This one also found by Robert Święcki, using his nasty system call
fuzzer tool. Good job.

The ATAG_BOARDINFO is intended to hand over the information
bd->bi_board_number from u-boot to the kernel.
This piece of information can be used to implement some kind of board
identification while booting the kernel. Therefore it is placed in .initdata
section and can be accessed via the new symbol board_number only while
initializing the kernel.

platform_get_irq returns -ENXIO on failure, so !int_irq was probably
always true. Better use (int)int_irq <= 0. Note that a return value of
zero is still handled as error even though this could mean irq0.
This is a followup to 305b3228f9ff4d59f49e6d34a7034d44ee8ce2f0 that
changed the return value of platform_get_irq from 0 to -ENXIO on error.

We can delete the code that checks to see if we're sending an ignored
signal to init because force_sig_info() already handles this case.
force_sig_info() will kill init even if the signal handler is SIG_DFL
and the scenario described in the comment where init might "generate
the same exception over and over again" cannot occur (force_sig_info()
clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE to ensure that init will die).
Also, the use of is_global_init() is not correct in the multhreaded
case, as Oleg Nesterov explains,
"is_global_init() is not right in theory, /sbin/init can be
multithreaded. And, this doesn't cover the sub-namespace
inits... I'd suggest to check SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, but looking
closer I think you can simply remove this code."
It seems this code was copied from arch/powerpc in March 2007 in commit
623b0355d5b1 "[AVR32] Clean up exception handling code"
but the code was deleted from arch/powerpc in November 2009 in commit
a0592d42fe3e "powerpc: kill the obsolete code under is_global_init()"
So catch up with powerpc and delete the bogus code.

As per Konrad's original patch, the dummy page used
by the gart code and allocated in radeon_gart_init()
was not freed properly in radeon_gart_fini().
At the same time r6xx and newer allocated and freed the
dummy page on their own. So to do Konrad's patch one
better, just remove the allocation and freeing of the
dummy page in the r6xx, 7xx, evergreen, and ni code and
allocate and free in the gart_init/fini() functions for
all asics.

Gaah. When commit be85bccaa5aa reverted the export of file system uuid
via /proc/<pid>/mountinfo, it also unintentionally removed the s_uuid
field in struct super_block.
I didn't mean to do that, since filesystems have been taught to fill it
in (and we want to keep it for future re-introduction in the mountinfo
file).
Stupid of me. This adds it back in.

Commit 53a7706d5ed8 ("mlock: do not hold mmap_sem for extended periods
of time") changed mlock() to care about the exact number of pages that
__get_user_pages() had brought it. Before, it would only care about
errors.
And that doesn't work, because we also handled one page specially in
__mlock_vma_pages_range(), namely the stack guard page. So when that
case was handled, the number of pages that the function returned was off
by one. In particular, it could be zero, and then the caller would end
up not making any progress at all.
Rather than try to fix up that off-by-one error for the mlock case
specially, this just moves the logic to handle the stack guard page
into__get_user_pages() itself, thus making all the counts come out
right automatically.

This reverts commit 93f1c20bc8cdb757be50566eff88d65c3b26881f.
It turns out that libmount misparses it because it adds a '-' character
in the uuid string, which libmount then incorrectly confuses with the
separator string (" - ") at the end of all the optional arguments.
Upstream libmount (in the util-linux tree) has been fixed, but until
that fix actually percolates up to users, we'd better not expose this
change in the kernel.
Let's revisit this later (possibly by exposing the UUID without any '-'
characters in it, avoiding the user-space bug).

My X201s BIOS version string is 6QET46V1 (1.16 ). The
EC version string is 6QHT28WW-1.09. The driver was requiring that both
of these have 'WW' in positions 6 and 7. I don't know what the
significance of having 'V1' there instead is, but removing the test

This is more or less the same patch as before, but with some merge
conflicts fixed up.
If a process has a dirty page mapped into its page tables, then it has
the ability to change it while the client is trying to write the data
out to the server. If that happens after the signature has been
calculated then that signature will then be wrong, and the server will
likely reset the TCP connection.
This patch adds a page_mkwrite handler for CIFS that simply takes the
page lock. Because the page lock is held over the life of writepage and
writepages, this prevents the page from becoming writeable until
the write call has completed.
With this, we can also remove the "sign_zero_copy" module option and
always inline the pages when writing.

In order for MFD drivers to fetch their cell pointer but also their
platform data one, an mfd cell pointer is added to the platform_device
structure.
That allows all MFD sub devices drivers to be MFD agnostic, unless
they really need to access their MFD cell data. Most of them don't,
especially the ones for IPs used by both MFD and non MFD SoCs.

When the TCP_Server_Info is first allocated and connected, tcpStatus ==
CifsGood means that the NEGOTIATE_PROTOCOL request has completed and the
socket is ready for other calls. cifs_reconnect however sets tcpStatus
to CifsGood as soon as the socket is reconnected and the optional
RFC1001 session setup is done. We have no clear way to tell the
difference between these two states, and we need to know this in order
to know whether we can send an echo or not.
Resolve this by adding a new statusEnum value -- CifsNeedNegotiate. When
the socket has been connected but has not yet had a NEGOTIATE_PROTOCOL
request done, set it to this value. Once the NEGOTIATE is done,
cifs_negotiate_protocol will set tcpStatus to CifsGood.
This also fixes and cleans the logic in cifs_reconnect and
cifs_reconnect_tcon. The old code checked for specific states when what
it really wants to know is whether the state has actually changed from
CifsNeedReconnect.

While testing my patchset to fix asynchronous writes, I hit a bunch
of signature problems when testing with signing on. The problem seems
to be that signature checks on receive can be running at the same
time as a process that is sending, or even that multiple receives can
be checking signatures at the same time, clobbering the same data
structures.
While we're at it, clean up the comments over cifs_calculate_signature
and add a note that the srv_mutex should be held when calling this
function.
This patch seems to fix the problems for me, but I'm not clear on
whether it's the best approach. If it is, then this should probably
go to stable too.
