      hpwdt: Only BYTE reads/writes to WD Timer port 0x72 · d08c9a33
      Mingarelli, Thomas authored
      This patch is to correct the use of the iLO port 0x72 usage.
      The port 0x72 is a byte size write/read and hpwdt is currently
      writing a WORD.

      mm: fix NULL ptr dereference in move_pages · 6e8b09ea
      Sasha Levin authored
      Commit 3268c63e ("mm: fix move/migrate_pages() race on task struct") has
      added an odd construct where 'mm' is checked for being NULL, and if it is,
      it would get dereferenced anyways by mput()ing it.

      Sasha Levin authored
      Commit 3268c63e ("mm: fix move/migrate_pages() race on task struct") has
      added an odd construct where 'mm' is checked for being NULL, and if it is,
      it would get dereferenced anyways by mput()ing it.
      
      This would lead to the following NULL ptr deref and BUG() when calling
      migrate_pages() with a pid that has no mm struct:

      Will Deacon authored
      Revert commit 85e72aa5 ("proc: clear_refs: do not clear reserved
      pages"), which was a quick fix suitable for -stable until ARM had been
      moved over to the gate_vma mechanism:
      
      https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/14/55
      
      With commit f9d4861f ("ARM: 7294/1: vectors: use gate_vma for vectors user
      mapping"), ARM does now use the gate_vma, so the PageReserved check can be
      removed from the proc code.

      hugetlbfs: lockdep annotate root inode properly · 65ed7601
      Aneesh Kumar K.V authored
      This fixes the below reported false lockdep warning.  e096d0c7
      ("lockdep: Add helper function for dir vs file i_mutex annotation") added
      a similar annotation for every other inode in hugetlbfs but missed the
      root inode because it was allocated by a separate function.
      
      For HugeTLB fs we allow taking i_mutex in mmap.  HugeTLB fs doesn't
      support file write and its file read callback is modified in a05b0855
      ("hugetlbfs: avoid taking i_mutex from hugetlbfs_read()") to not take
      i_mutex.  Hence for HugeTLB fs with regular files we really don't take
      i_mutex with mmap_sem held.

      acerhdf: lowered default temp fanon/fanoff values · 351963bb
      Peter Feuerer authored
      Due to new supported hardware, of which the actual temperature limits of
      processor, harddisk and other components are unknown, it feels safer with
      lower fanon / fanoff settings.
      
      It won't change much for most people, already using acerhdf, as they use
      their own fanon/fanoff variable settings when loading the module.
      
      Furthermore seems like kernel and userspace tools have been improved to
      work more efficient and netbooks don't get so hot anymore.

      fs/buffer.c: remove BUG() in possible but rare condition · 61065a30
      Glauber Costa authored
      While stressing the kernel with with failing allocations today, I hit the
      following chain of events:
      
      alloc_page_buffers():
      
      	bh = alloc_buffer_head(GFP_NOFS);
      	if (!bh)
      		goto no_grow; <= path taken
      
      grow_dev_page():
              bh = alloc_page_buffers(page, size, 0);
              if (!bh)
                      goto failed;  <= taken, consequence of the above
      
      and then the failed path BUG()s the kernel.
      
      The failure is inserted a litte bit artificially, but even then, I see no
      reason why it should be deemed impossible in a real box.
      
      Even though this is not a condition that we expect to see around every
      time, failed allocations are expected to be handled, and BUG() sounds just
      too much.  As a matter of fact, grow_dev_page() can return NULL just fine
      in other circumstances, so I propose we just remove it, then.

      mm: fix up the vmscan stat in vmstat · 904249aa
      Ying Han authored
      The "pgsteal" stat is confusing because it counts both direct reclaim as
      well as background reclaim.  However, we have "kswapd_steal" which also
      counts background reclaim value.
      
      This patch fixes it and also makes it match the existng "pgscan_" stats.
      
      Test:
      pgsteal_kswapd_dma32 447623
      pgsteal_kswapd_normal 42272677

      epoll: clear the tfile_check_list on -ELOOP · 13d51807
      Jason Baron authored
      An epoll_ctl(,EPOLL_CTL_ADD,,) operation can return '-ELOOP' to prevent
      circular epoll dependencies from being created.  However, in that case we
      do not properly clear the 'tfile_check_list'.  Thus, add a call to
      clear_tfile_check_list() for the -ELOOP case.

      Local variable "page" can be uninitialized if the nodemask from vma policy
      does not intersects with nodemask from cpuset.  Even if it doesn't happens
      it is better to initialize this variable explicitly than to introduce

      mm: nobootmem: Correct alloc_bootmem semantics. · 4e1c2b28
      David Miller authored
      The comments above __alloc_bootmem_node() claim that the code will
      first try the allocation using 'goal' and if that fails it will
      try again but with the 'goal' requirement dropped.
      
      Unfortunately, this is not what the code does, so fix it to do so.
      
      This is important for nobootmem conversions to architectures such
      as sparc where MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is infinity.
      
      On such architectures all of the allocations done by generic spots,
      such as the sparse-vmemmap implementation, will pass in:
      
      	__pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)
      
      as the goal, and with the limit given as "-1" this will always fail
      unless we add the appropriate fallback logic here.
