      rcu: Reset rcu_fanout_leaf if out of bounds · 13bd6494
      Paul E. McKenney authored
      Currently if the rcu_fanout_leaf boot parameter is out of bounds (that
      is, less than RCU_FANOUT_LEAF or greater than the number of bits in an
      unsigned long), a warning is issued and execution continues with the
      out-of-bounds value.  This can result in all manner of failures, so this
      patch resets rcu_fanout_leaf to RCU_FANOUT_LEAF when an out-of-bounds
      condition is detected.

      rcu: Shut up bogus gcc array bounds warning · 032dfc87
      Alexander Gordeev authored
      Because gcc does not realize a loop would not be entered ever
      (i.e. in case of rcu_num_lvls == 1):
      
        for (i = 1; i < rcu_num_lvls; i++)
      	  rsp->level[i] = rsp->level[i - 1] + levelcnt[i - 1];
      
      some compiler (pre- 5.x?) versions give a bogus warning:
      
        kernel/rcu/tree.c: In function ‘rcu_init_one.isra.55’:
        kernel/rcu/tree.c:4108:13: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
           rsp->level[i] = rsp->level[i - 1] + rsp->levelcnt[i - 1];
                     ^
      Fix that warning by adding an extra item to rcu_state::level[]
      array. Once the bogus warning is fixed in gcc and kernel drops
      support of older versions, the dummy item may be removed from
      the array.

      bluetooth: fix list handling · 9b284cbd
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Commit 835a6a2f ("Bluetooth: Stop sabotaging list poisoning")
      thought that the code was sabotaging the list poisoning when NULL'ing
      out the list pointers and removed it.
      
      But what was going on was that the bluetooth code was using NULL
      pointers for the list as a way to mark it empty, and that commit just
      broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on
      a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further).
      
      So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling
      (which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to
      initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized
      implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc())
      
      This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong
      An.
      
      [ I would normally expect to get this through the bt tree, but I'm going
        to release -rc1, so I'm just committing this directly   - Linus ]
