As requested by Michael, add a missing check for valid flags in
timerfd_settime(), and make it return EINVAL in case some extra bits are
set.

Michael said:
If this is to be any use to userland apps that want to check flag
support (perhaps it is too late already), then the sooner we get it
into the kernel the better: 2.6.29 would be good; earlier stables as
well would be even better.

Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the
offset it passed to user space.  In the case pread this assumption is
broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread.

To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we
know where our logical file position is.  Then in seq_read if we try to
read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to
the offset user space wanted.

Separate FMODE_PREAD and FMODE_PWRITE into separate flags to reflect the
reality that the read and write paths may have independent restrictions.

A git grep verifies that these flags are always cleared together so this
new behavior will only apply to interfaces that change to clear flags
individually.

This is required for "seq_file: properly cope with pread", a post-2.6.25
regression fix.

We have get_vm_area_caller() and __get_vm_area() but not
__get_vm_area_caller()

On powerpc, I use __get_vm_area() to separate the ranges of addresses
given to vmalloc vs.  ioremap (various good reasons for that) so in order
to be able to implement the new caller tracking in /proc/vmallocinfo, I
need a "_caller" variant of it.

(akpm: needed for ongoing powerpc development, so merge it early)

If a USB PCI controller is behind a cardbus bridge, we are trying to
restore its configuration registers too early, before the cardbus
bridge is operational.  To fix this, call pci_restore_state() from
usb_hcd_pci_resume() and remove usb_hcd_pci_resume_early() which is
no longer necessary (the configuration spaces of USB controllers that
are not behind cardbus bridges will be restored by the PCI PM core
with interrupts disabled anyway).

This is the cause of the DMA faults and disk corruption that people have
been seeing. Some chipsets neglect to report the RWBF "capability" --
the flag which says that we need to flush the chipset write-buffer when
changing the DMA page tables, to ensure that the change is visible to
the IOMMU.

Override that bit on the affected chipsets, and everything is happy
again.

Getting this wrong caused

	WARNING: at fs/namespace.c:636 mntput_no_expire+0xac/0xf2()

due to optimistically checking cpu_writer->mnt outside the spinlock.

Here's what we really want:
 * we know that nobody will set cpu_writer->mnt to mnt from now on
 * all changes to that sucker are done under cpu_writer->lock
 * we want the laziest equivalent of
	spin_lock(&cpu_writer->lock);
	if (likely(cpu_writer->mnt != mnt)) {
		spin_unlock(&cpu_writer->lock);
		continue;
	}
	/* do stuff */
  that would make sure we won't miss earlier setting of ->mnt done by
  another CPU.

Anyway, for now we just move the spin_lock() earlier and move the test
into the properly locked region.

up before the video_ioctl2 call, causing random crashes.

I agree, this is bad.  The demuxer is far too much work to be done with
