      [S390] monwriter: fix return code handling · 37fa9975
      Heiko Carstens authored 
      Fix return code handling within monwrite_new_hdr(). Return code handling
is everwhere implemented, the return code of the diagnose function was
just not passed.

      [S390] Remove tape block device driver. · 66ceed5a
      Heiko Carstens authored 
      Remove the tape block device driver. It's not of real use but has
already created some confusion when users wanted to access tape devices
and used the block device nodes instead of the character device nodes.

Also remove the whole tape documentation since it's completely outdated
and we have the device drivers book which is the place where everything
is properly documented.

      [S390] Remove data execution protection · 043d0708
      Martin Schwidefsky authored 
      The noexec support on s390 does not rely on a bit in the page table
entry but utilizes the secondary space mode to distinguish between
memory accesses for instructions vs. data. The noexec code relies
on the assumption that the cpu will always use the secondary space
page table for data accesses while it is running in the secondary
space mode. Up to the z9-109 class machines this has been the case.
Unfortunately this is not true anymore with z10 and later machines.
The load-relative-long instructions lrl, lgrl and lgfrl access the
memory operand using the same addressing-space mode that has been
used to fetch the instruction.
This breaks the noexec mode for all user space binaries compiled
with march=z10 or later. The only option is to remove the current
noexec support.

      [S390] cio: fix unreg race in set_online path · 9bf05098
      Sebastian Ott authored 
      In ccw_device_set_online we basically start path verification and
wait for the device to reach a final state. If it turns out that the
device has no useable path we schedule the deregistration of the
device (which is still in an non-final state) and wake up the waiting
process. The deregistration process will set a final state, but if
the wake up happens to be prior to this, the device will hang forever
in ccw_device_set_online.

To fix this just set the final NOT_OPER state prior to the scheduled
deregistration of the device.

      x86: setup_smep needs to be __cpuinit · 82da65da
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The setup_smep function gets calle at resume time too, and is thus not a
pure __init function.  When marked as __init, it gets thrown out after
the kernel has initialized, and when the kernel is suspended and
resumed, the code will no longer be around, and we'll get a nice "kernel
tried to execute NX-protected page" oops because the page is no longer
marked executable.

      Remove prefetch() from <linux/skbuff.h> and "netlabel_addrlist.h" · a1e4891f
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Commit e66eed65 ("list: remove prefetching from regular list
iterators") removed the include of prefetch.h from list.h.  The skbuff
list traversal still had them.

Quoth David Miller:
  "Please just remove the prefetches.

  Those are modelled after list.h as I intend to eventually convert
  SKB list handling to "struct list_head" but we're not there yet.

  Therefore if we kill prefetches from list.h we should kill it from
  these things in skbuff.h too."

      Add appropriate <linux/prefetch.h> include for prefetch users · 70c71606
      Paul Gortmaker authored 
      After discovering that wide use of prefetch on modern CPUs
could be a net loss instead of a win, net drivers which were
relying on the implicit inclusion of prefetch.h via the list
headers showed up in the resulting cleanup fallout.  Give
them an explicit include via the following $0.02 script.

 =========================================
 #!/bin/bash
 MANUAL=""
 for i in `git grep -l 'prefetch(.*)' .` ; do
 	grep -q '<linux/prefetch.h>' $i
 	if [ $? = 0 ] ; then
 		continue
 	fi

 	(	echo '?^#include <linux/?a'
 		echo '#include <linux/prefetch.h>'
 		echo .
 		echo w
 		echo q
 	) | ed -s $i > /dev/null 2>&1
 	if [ $? != 0 ]; then
 		echo $i needs manual fixup
 		MANUAL="$i $MANUAL"
 	fi
 done
