        some reported issues.
      
        The MEI driver issue resolves a lot of problems that people have been
        having, as does the mem driver fix. The other minor fixes resolve
        other reported issues.

      fix a fencepost error in pipe_advance() · b9dc6f65
      Al Viro authored
      The logics in pipe_advance() used to release all buffers past the new
      position failed in cases when the number of buffers to release was equal
      to pipe->buffers.  If that happened, none of them had been released,
      leaving pipe full.  Worse, it was trivial to trigger and we end up with
      pipe full of uninitialized pages.  IOW, it's an infoleak.

      coredump: Ensure proper size of sparse core files · 4d22c75d
      Dave Kleikamp authored
      If the last section of a core file ends with an unmapped or zero page,
      the size of the file does not correspond with the last dump_skip() call.
      gdb complains that the file is truncated and can be confusing to users.
      
      After all of the vma sections are written, make sure that the file size
      is no smaller than the current file position.
      
      This problem can be demonstrated with gdb's bigcore testcase on the
      sparc architecture.
