pcmcia timer initialisation fixes from Anton Blanchard

Patch from William Lee Irwin III <wli@holomorphy.com>

PAE's pte_none() and pte_pfn() evaluate their arguments twice;
analogous fixes have been made to other things; c.f. pgtable.h's long
list of one-line inlines with parentheses still around their args.

Patch from: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

Mikael Pettersson points out that "-s" gets mangled to "_s" on the
kernel command line, even though it turns out not to be a
parameter.

Patch from William Lee Irwin III <wli@holomorphy.com>

pgd_index() doesn't parenthesize its argument.  This is a bad idea for
macros, since it's legitimate to pass expressions to them that will get
misinterpreted given operator precedence and the shift.

Patch from Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

Make symbol_get() use undefined weak symbols if !CONFIG_MODULE.
Many thanks to RTH for introducing undef weak symbols to me.

Patch from William Lee Irwin III <wli@holomorphy.com>

BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH and BLK_BOUNCE_ANY are compared against 64-bit quantities.
Cast these unsigned long quantities to avoid overflow.

Patch from Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>

cache_alloc_refill() forgets to disable interrupts again on an error path.
This exposes us to slab corruption and it makes slab debugging go BUG (it
expects local irqs to be disabled).

Patch from William Lee Irwin III <wli@holomorphy.com>

struct thread_info is shared with the stack, not struct task_struct.
False positives have been seen.

Random semicolon makes the whole thing a no-op.

It _did_ work.  I must have broken it between testing and sending :(

Patch from: jak@rudolph.ccur.com (Joe Korty)

The new, preemptable spin_lock() spins on an atomic bus-locking read/write
instead of an ordinary read, as the original spin_lock implementation did.
Perhaps that is the source of the inefficiency being seen.

Attached sample code compiles but is untested and incomplete (present
only to illustrate the idea).

The second quota locking fix.  Sorry, I seem to have misplaced the
changelog.

Quota locking fix from Jan Kara.

Spotted by Andries Brouwer.  There's one place where slab is calling
check_poison_obj() but not reporting on any detected failure.

We used to go BUG() in there.  Convert it over to the kinder, gentler
slab_error() regime.

There have been sporadic sightings of ext3 causing little blips of 100,000
context switches per second when under load.

At the start of do_get_write_access() we have this logic:

	repeat:
		lock_buffer(jh->bh);
		...
		unlock_buffer(jh->bh);
		...
		if (jh->j_list == BJ_Shadow) {
			sleep_on_buffer(jh->bh);
			goto repeat;
		}

The problem is that the unlock_buffer() will wake up anyone who is sleeping
in the sleep_on_buffer().

So if task A is asleep in sleep_on_buffer() and task B now runs
do_get_write_access(), task B will wake task A by accident.  Task B will then
sleep on the buffer and task A will loop, will run unlock_buffer() and then
wake task B.

This state will continue until I/O completes against the buffer and kjournal
changes jh->j_list.

Unless task A and task B happen to both have realtime scheduling policy - if
they do then kjournald will never run.  The state is never cleared and your
box locks up.


The fix is to not do the `goto repeat;' until the buffer has been taken of
the shadow list.  So we don't go and wake up the other waiter(s) until they
can actually proceed to use the buffer.

The patch removes the exported sleep_on_buffer() function and simply exports
an existing function which provides access to a buffer_head's waitqueue
pointer.  Which is a better interface anyway, because it permits the use of
wait_event().

This bug was introduced introduced into 2.4.20-pre5 and was faithfully ported
up.

The general error logic handling in there is:

	*errp = -EFOO;
	<lots of code>
	if (some_error)
		goto out;

this is fragile and unmaintainable, because the setting of the error code is
"far away" from the site where the error was detected.

And the code was actually wrong - we're returning ENOSPC in places where fs
metadata inconsistency was detected.  We traditionally return -EIO in this
case.

So change it all to do, effectively:

	if (some_error) {
		*errp = -EFOO;
		goto out;
	}

Patch from: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>

For almost a year (since 2.5.4) ext2_new_block has tended to set err 0
instead of -ENOSPC or -EIO.  This manifested variously (typically depends on
what's stale in ext2_get_block's chain[4] array): sometimes __brelse free
free buffer backtraces, sometimes release_pages oops, usually
generic_make_request beyond end of device messages, followed by further ext2
errors.

[Insert lecture on dangers of using goto for unwind :-]

Forward port of a 2.4 patch by Christoph Hellwig.

See http://cert.uni-stuttgart.de/archive/bugtraq/2002/03/msg00384.html
for the security implications.

Patch from Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>

exec of setuid apps and ptrace must be synchronized, to ensure that a normal
user cannot ptrace a setuid app across exec.  ptrace_attach acquires the
task_lock around the uid checks, compute_creds acquires the BLK.  The patch
converts compute_creds to the task_lock.  Additionally, it removes the
do_unlock variable: the task_lock is not heaviliy used, there is no need to
avoid the spinlock by adding branches.

The patch is a cleanup patch, not a fix for a security problem: AFAICS the
sys_ptrace in every arch acquires the BKL before calling ptrace_attach.

Compile fix in sound/oss/maestro.c

Patch from: "H. J. Lu" <hjl@lucon.org>

Fixes a commonly-reported insmod oops.

Move the ksymtab labels definitions inside the liker section, so they get the
right addresses.

Since Jan removed the lock_kernel()s in inode_add_bytes() and
inode_sub_bytes(), these functions have been racy.

One problematic workload has been discovered in which concurrent writepage
and truncate on SMP quickly causes i_blocks to go negative.  writepage() does
not take i_sem, and it seems that for ext2, there are no other locks in
force when inode_add_bytes() is called.

Putting the BKL back in there is not acceptable.  To fix this race I have
added a new spinlock "i_lock" to the inode.

That lock is presently used to protect i_bytes and i_blocks.  We could use it
to protect i_size as well.

The splitting of the used disk space into i_blocks and i_bytes is silly - we
should nuke all that and just have a bare loff_t i_usedbytes.   Later.

When an appending O_DIRECT write hits ENOSPC we're returning a short write
which is _too_ short.  The file ends up with an undersized i_size and fsck
complains.

So update the return value with the partial result before bailing out.

In 2.5.52 I broke sys_sync() for ext2 in subtle ways.

sys_sync() will set mapping->dirtied_when non-zero against a clean inode.
Later, in (say) __iget(), that inode gets moved over to inode_unused or
inode_in_use.  But because it has non-zero ->dirtied_when,
__mark_inode_dirty() thinks that the inode must still be on sb->s_dirty.

But it isn't.  It's on inode_in_use.  It (and its pages) never get written
out and the data gets thrown away on unmount.

The patch ceases to use ->dirtied_when as an indicator of inode dirtiness.
Not sure why I even did that :(

__virt_to_bus/__bus_to_virt depended on INTEGRATOR_HDR0_SDRAM_BASE
Unfortunately, this is defined in arch-integrator/platform.h, and
we really don't want to include it in memory.h.

We instead use BUS_OFFSET, which will eventually depend on the CPU
number in the system.

Only default BLK_DEV_IDEDMA on BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_ICS if ARCH_ACORN is
set, not if ARM is set.  There are PCI ARM systems out there!

Ensure that we clean up properly after initialisation error,
releasing all claimed resources in an orderly manner and
returning the correct error code.

Add cfbfillrect / cfbcopyarea / cfbimgblt objects for SA1100fb.
Remove redundant "pm" member.

Found a buglet in the marvel code -- doesn't change the number of IRQS
just the logic to get there.. This applies on top of the other marvel
code.
