Mark Fasheh eeb47d1234 ocfs2: Fix invalid assertion during write on 64k pages
The write path code intends to bug if a math error (or unhandled case)
results in a write outside of the current cluster boundaries. The actual
BUG_ON() statements however are incorrect, leading to a crash on kernels
with 64k page size. Fix those by checking against the right variables.

Also, move the assertions higher up within the functions so that they trip
*before* the code starts to mark buffers.

Andrew Morton 78ae87c3cd vanishing ioctl handler debugging
We've had several reoprts of the CPU jumping to 0x00000000 is do_ioctl().  I
assume that there's a race and someone is zeroing out the ioctl handler while
this CPU waits for the lock_kernel().

The patch adds code to detect this, then emits stuff which will hopefuly lead
us to the culprit.

Trond Myklebust b4946ffb18 NFS: Fix a refcount leakage in O_DIRECT
The current code is leaking a reference to dreq->kref when the calls to
nfs_direct_read_schedule() and nfs_direct_write_schedule() return an

This patch moves the call to kref_put() from nfs_direct_wait() back into
nfs_direct_read() and nfs_direct_write() (which are the functions that
actually took the reference in the first place) fixing the leak.

David Chinner df3c724426 [XFS] Write at EOF may not update filesize correctly.
The recent fix for preventing NULL files from being left around does not
update the file size corectly in all cases. The missing case is a write
extending the file that does not need to allocate a block.

In that case we used a read mapping of the extent which forced the use of
the read I/O completion handler instead of the write I/O completion
handle. Hence the file size was not updated on I/O completion.

Hugh Dickins f4d43bd579 fix compat console unimap regression
Why is it that since the 2f1a2ccb9c console
UTF-8 fixes went into 2.6.22-rc1, the PowerMac G5 shows only inverse video
question marks for the text on tty2-6? whereas tty1 is fine, and so is x86.

No fault of that patch: by removing the old fallback behaviour, it reveals
that 32-bit setfont running on 64-bit kernels has only really worked on
the current console, the rest getting faked by that inadequate fallback.

Bring the compat do_unimap_ioctl into line with the main one: PIO_UNIMAP
and GIO_UNIMAP apply to the specified tty, not redirected to fg_console.
Use the same checks, and most particularly, remember to check access_ok:
con_set_unimap and con_get_unimap are using __get_user and __put_user.

And the compat vt_check should ask for the same capability as the main
one, CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG rather than CAP_SYS_ADMIN.  Added in vt_ioctl's
vc_cons_allocated check for safety, though failure may well be impossible.

Trond Myklebust 7fe7f8487a NFS: Avoid a deadlock situation on write
When processes are allowed to attempt to lock a non-contiguous range of nfs
write requests, it is possible for generic_writepages to 'wrap round' the
address space, and call writepage() on a request that is already locked by
the same process.

We avoid the deadlock by checking if the page index is contiguous with the
list of nfs write requests that is already held in our
nfs_pageio_descriptor prior to attempting to lock a new request.

Alexey Dobriyan e8edc6e03a Detach sched.h from mm.h
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up

	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig

However, jffs2_build_xattr_subsystem() runs later than this, and will
attach an xref to the dead inode. Then later when the last nodes of that
dead inode are erased we hit a BUG() in jffs2_del_ino_cache() 
because we're not supposed to get there with an xattr still attached to 
the inode which is being killed.

The simple fix is to refrain from attaching xattrs to inodes with zero 
nlink, in jffs2_build_xattr_subsystem(). It's it's OK to trust nlink 
here because the file system isn't actually mounted yet, so there's no 
chance that a zero-nlink file could actually be alive still because 
it's open.

Davide Libenzi 18963c01b8 timerfd use waitqueue lock ...
The timerfd was using the unlocked waitqueue operations, but it was
using a different lock, so poll_wait() would race with it.

This makes timerfd directly use the waitqueue lock.

Christoph Lameter ea125892a1 Fix page allocation flags in grow_dev_page()
grow_dev_page() simply passes GFP_NOFS to find_or_create_page.  This means
the allocation of radix tree nodes is done with GFP_NOFS and the allocation
of a new page is done using GFP_NOFS.

The mapping has a flags field that contains the necessary allocation flags
for the page cache allocation.  These need to be consulted in order to get
DMA and HIGHMEM allocations etc right.  And yes a blockdev could be
allowing Highmem allocations if its a ramdisk.

Jan Kara 7925409e20 circular locking dependency found in QUOTA OFF
i_mutex on quota files is special.  Unlike i_mutexes for other inodes it is
acquired under dqonoff_mutex.  Tell lockdep about this lock ranking.  Also
comment and code in quota_sync_sb() seem to be bogus (as i_mutex for quota
file can be acquired under dqonoff_mutex).  Move truncate_inode_pages()
call under dqonoff_mutex and save some problems with races...

Make sysctl/kernel/core_pattern and fs/exec.c agree on maximum core
filename size and change it to 128, so that extensive patterns such as
'/local/cores/%e-%h-%s-%t-%p.core' won't result in truncated filename
generation.
