We should probably not be testing any flags after we've cleared the
RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag, since rpc_make_runnable() is then free to assign the
rpc_task to another workqueue, which may then destroy it.

We can fix any races with rpc_make_runnable() by ensuring that we only
clear the RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag while holding the rpc_wait_queue->lock that
the task is supposed to be sleeping on (and then checking whether or not
the task really is sleeping).

Prevent the kernel from being crashed by a divide-by-zero operation when
supplied an incorrectly filled 'struct fb_var_screeninfo' from userland.

Previously i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params) was using the global
'yres' symbol previously defined at i810_main.c:145 as a module parameter
value holder (i810_main.c:2174).  If i810fb is compiled-in or if this
param doesn't get a default value, this direct usage leads to a
divide-by-zero at i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params).  The patch simply
replace the 'yres' global, perhaps undefined symbol usage by a given
parameter structure lookup.

This problem occurs with directfb, mplayer -vo fbdev, SDL library.
It was also reported ( but non solved ) at:

Fix a problem in the IDR system, where an idr_remove_all() hands a data
element to call_rcu() (via free_layer()) before making that data element
inaccessible to new readers.  This is very bad, and results in readers
still having a reference to this data element at the end of the grace
period.

Tests on large machines that concurrently map and unmap user-space memory
within the same multithreaded process result in crashes within about five
minutes.  Applying this patch increases the kernel's longevity to the
three-to-eight-hour range.

There appear to be other similar problems in idr_get_empty_slot() and
sub_remove(), but I fixed the easy one in idr_remove_all() first.  It is
therefore no surprise that failures still occur.

get_nid_for_pfn() returns int

Presumably the (nid < 0) case has never happened.

We do know that it is happening on one system while creating a symlink for
a memory section so it should also happen on the same system if
unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() were called to remove the same symlink.

The test was actually added in response to a problem with an earlier
version reported by Yasunori Goto where one or more of the leading pages
of a memory section on the 2nd node of one of his systems was
uninitialized because I believe they coincided with a memory hole.

That earlier version did not ignore uninitialized pages and determined
the nid by considering only the 1st page of each memory section.  This
caused the symlink to the 1st memory section on the 2nd node to be
incorrectly created in /sys/devices/system/node/node0 instead of
/sys/devices/system/node/node1.  The problem was fixed by adding the
test to skip over uninitialized pages.

I suspect we have not seen any reports of the non-removal
of a symlink due to the incorrect declaration of the nid
variable in unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() because
  - systems where a memory section could have an uninitialized
    range of leading pages are probably rare.
  - memory remove is probably not done very frequently on the
    systems that are capable of demonstrating the problem.
  - lingering symlink(s) that should have been removed may
    have simply gone unnoticed.

This reverts commit e088e4c9

.

Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a
regression in bug 12826.

Course of action:
 - Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them
   if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically.
   If it isn't, we need to fix that.
 - mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated
 - try again with the removal in six months.

It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because
it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding
a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

Impact: remove lots of lguest boot WARN_ON() when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y

We now need to call irq_to_desc_alloc_cpu() before
set_irq_chip_and_handler_name(), but we can't do that from init_IRQ (no
kmalloc available).

So do it as we use interrupts instead.  Also means we only alloc for
irqs we use, which was the intent of CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ anyway.

		rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE, misc_enable);

And that rdmsr faults (not allowed from non-0 PL).  We can get around
this by mugging the family ID part of the cpuid.  5 seems like a good
number.

Of course, this is a hack (how very lguest!).  We could just indicate
that we don't support MSRs, or implement lguest_rdmst.

Impact: fix race+crash in mmiotrace

The list manipulation in remove_kmmio_fault_pages() was broken. If more
than one consecutive kmmio_fault_page was re-added during the grace
period between unregister_kmmio_probe() and remove_kmmio_fault_pages(),
the list manipulation failed to remove pages from the release list.

After a second grace period the pages get into rcu_free_kmmio_fault_pages()
and raise a BUG_ON() kernel crash.

The list manipulation is fixed to properly remove pages from the release
list.

This bug has been present from the very beginning of mmiotrace in the
mainline kernel. It was introduced in 0fd0e3da
