Commit 916f676f started reserving boot service code since some systems require you to keep that code around until SetVirtualAddressMap is called. However, in some cases those areas will overlap with reserved regions. The proper medium-term fix is to fix the bootloader to prevent the conflicts from occurring by moving the kernel to a better position, but the kernel should check for this possibility, and only reserve regions which can be reserved.

Hugh Dickins points out that lockdep (correctly) spots a potential deadlock on the anon_vma lock, because we now do a GFP_KERNEL allocation of anon_vma_chain while doing anon_vma_clone(). The problem is that page reclaim will want to take the anon_vma lock of any anonymous pages that it will try to reclaim. So re-organize the code in anon_vma_clone() slightly: first do just a GFP_NOWAIT allocation, which will usually work fine. But if that fails, let's just drop the lock and re-do the allocation, now with GFP_KERNEL. End result: not only do we avoid the locking problem, this also ends up getting better concurrency in case the allocation does need to block. Tim Chen reports that with all these anon_vma locking tweaks, we're now almost back up to the spinlock performance.

This matches the anon_vma_clone() case, and uses the same lock helper functions. Because of the need to potentially release the anon_vma's, it's a bit more complex, though. We traverse the 'vma->anon_vma_chain' in two phases: the first loop gets the anon_vma lock (with the helper function that only takes the lock once for the whole loop), and removes any entries that don't need any more processing. The second phase just traverses the remaining list entries (without holding the anon_vma lock), and does any actual freeing of the anon_vma's that is required.

In anon_vma_clone() we traverse the vma->anon_vma_chain of the source vma, locking the anon_vma for each entry. But they are all going to have the same root entry, which means that we're locking and unlocking the same lock over and over again. Which is expensive in locked operations, but can get _really_ expensive when that root entry sees any kind of lock contention. In fact, Tim Chen reports a big performance regression due to this: when we switched to use a mutex instead of a spinlock, the contention case gets much worse. So to alleviate this all, this commit creates a small helper function (lock_anon_vma_root()) that can be used to take the lock just once rather than taking and releasing it over and over again. We still have the same "take the lock and release" it behavior in the exit path (in unlink_anon_vmas()), but that one is a bit harder to fix since we're actually freeing the anon_vma entries as we go, and that will touch the lock too.

____call_usermodehelper() now erases any credentials set by the subprocess_inf::init() function. The problem is that commit 17f60a7d ("capabilites: allow the application of capability limits to usermode helpers") creates and commits new credentials with prepare_kernel_cred() after the call to the init() function. This wipes all keyrings after umh_keys_init() is called. The best way to deal with this is to put the init() call just prior to the commit_creds() call, and pass the cred pointer to init(). That means that umh_keys_init() and suchlike can modify the credentials _before_ they are published and potentially in use by the rest of the system. This prevents request_key() from working as it is prevented from passing the session keyring it set up with the authorisation token to /sbin/request-key, and so the latter can't assume the authority to instantiate the key. This causes the in-kernel DNS resolver to fail with ENOKEY unconditionally.

The default bits per word setting should be 8 bits, but since most of our devices have been explicitly setting this up, we didn't notice when the default stopped working. At the moment, any default transfers without an explicit bit size setting error out with: bfin-spi bfin-spi.0: transfer: unsupported bits_per_word So in the transfer logic, have a bits_per_word setting of 0 fall into the 8 bit transfer logic.

There is a problem that kdump(2nd kernel) sometimes hangs up due to a pending IPI from 1st kernel. Kernel panic occurs because IPI comes before call_single_queue is initialized. To fix the crash, rename init_call_single_data() to call_function_init() and call it in start_kernel() so that call_single_queue can be initialized before enabling interrupts. The details of the crash are: (1) 2nd kernel boots up (2) A pending IPI from 1st kernel comes when irqs are first enabled in start_kernel(). (3) Kernel tries to handle the interrupt, but call_single_queue is not initialized yet at this point. As a result, in the generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt(), NULL pointer dereference occurs when list_replace_init() tries to access &q->list.next. Therefore this patch changes the name of init_call_single_data() to call_function_init() and calls it before local_irq_enable() in start_kernel().
