-tip testing found that this patch breaks the build on x86 if
CONFIG_KALLSYMS is disabled:

 kernel/module.c: In function ‘load_module’:
 kernel/module.c:2367: error: ‘struct module’ has no member named ‘sect_attrs’
 distcc[8269] ERROR: compile kernel/module.c on ph/32 failed

 make: *** [kernel] Error 2
 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Commit 1b364bf4 misses the fact that section attributes are only
built and dealt with if kallsyms is enabled. The patch below fixes
this.

( note, technically speaking this should depend on CONFIG_SYSFS as
  well but this patch is correct too and keeps the #ifdef less
  intrusive - in the KALLSYMS && !SYSFS case the code is a NOP. )

Before the rewrite copy_event_to_user always wrote a terqminating '\0'
byte to user space after the filename.  Since the rewrite that
terminating byte was skipped if your filename is exactly a multiple of
event_size.  Ouch!

So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to
set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the
strange nul_inotify_event.  I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero
will never exceed 16 and even if it doesn't clear_user should be more
efficient and a more accurate reflection of what the code is trying to

When setting the same GPIO number, multiple IRQ shared requests will be
done without freing the previous request.  It will also try to free a
failed request or an already freed IRQ if 0 was written to the gpio file.

All these oops and leaks were fixed with the following solution: keep the
previous allocated GPIO (if any) still allocated in case the new request
fails.  The alternative solution would desallocate the previous allocated
GPIO and set gpio as 0.

If the BIOS reports an invalid throttling state (which seems to be
fairly common after system boot), a reset is done to state T0.
Because of a check in acpi_processor_get_throttling_ptc(), the reset
never actually gets executed, which results in the error reoccurring
on every access of for example /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling.

Add a 'force' option to acpi_processor_set_throttling() to ensure
the reset really takes effect.

This patch, together with the next one, fixes a regression introduced in
2.6.30, listed on the regression list. They have been available for 2.5
months now in bugzilla, but have not been picked up, despite various
reminders and without any reason given.

Google shows that numerous people are hitting this issue. The issue is in
itself relatively minor, but the bug in the code is clear.

The patches have been in all my kernels and today testing has shown that
throttling works correctly with the patches applied when the system
overheats (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13918#c14).

Summary:
Kernel panic arise when stack protection is enabled, since strncat will
add a null terminating byte '\0'; So in functions
like this one (wmi_query_block):
        char wc[4]="WC";
	....
	strncat(method, block->object_id, 2);
        ...
the length of wc should be n+1 (wc[5]) or stack protection
fault will arise. This is not noticeable when stack protection is
disabled,but , isn't good either.

The return value of the get_temp function is not checked when doing a
thermal zone update.  This may lead to a critical shutdown if get_temp
fails and the content of the temp variable is incorrectly set higher than
the critical trip point.

This has been observed on a system with incorrect ACPI implementation
where the corresponding methods were not serialized and therefore
sometimes triggered ACPI errors (AE_ALREADY_EXISTS).  The following
critical shutdowns indicated a temperature of 2097 C, which was obviously
wrong.

The patch adds a return value check that jumps over all trip point
evaluations printing a warning if get_temp fails.  The trip points are
evaluated again on the next polling interval with successful get_temp
execution.
