The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices. The code for evaluating LDM partitions (in fs/partitions/ldm.c) contains a bug that causes a kernel oops on certain corrupted LDM partitions. A kernel subsystem seems to crash, because, after the oops, the kernel no longer recognizes newly connected storage devices. The patch validates the value of vblk_size.

Commit 982134ba ("mm: avoid wrapping vm_pgoff in mremap()") fixed the case of a expanding mapping causing vm_pgoff wrapping when you used mremap. But there was another case where we expand mappings hiding in plain sight: the automatic stack expansion. This fixes that case too. This one also found by Robert Święcki, using his nasty system call fuzzer tool. Good job.

The ATAG_BOARDINFO is intended to hand over the information bd->bi_board_number from u-boot to the kernel. This piece of information can be used to implement some kind of board identification while booting the kernel. Therefore it is placed in .initdata section and can be accessed via the new symbol board_number only while initializing the kernel.

platform_get_irq returns -ENXIO on failure, so !int_irq was probably always true. Better use (int)int_irq <= 0. Note that a return value of zero is still handled as error even though this could mean irq0. This is a followup to 305b3228 that changed the return value of platform_get_irq from 0 to -ENXIO on error.

We can delete the code that checks to see if we're sending an ignored signal to init because force_sig_info() already handles this case. force_sig_info() will kill init even if the signal handler is SIG_DFL and the scenario described in the comment where init might "generate the same exception over and over again" cannot occur (force_sig_info() clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE to ensure that init will die). Also, the use of is_global_init() is not correct in the multhreaded case, as Oleg Nesterov explains, "is_global_init() is not right in theory, /sbin/init can be multithreaded. And, this doesn't cover the sub-namespace inits... I'd suggest to check SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, but looking closer I think you can simply remove this code." It seems this code was copied from arch/powerpc in March 2007 in commit 623b0355 "[AVR32] Clean up exception handling code" but the code was deleted from arch/powerpc in November 2009 in commit a0592d42 "powerpc: kill the obsolete code under is_global_init()" So catch up with powerpc and delete the bogus code.

As per Konrad's original patch, the dummy page used by the gart code and allocated in radeon_gart_init() was not freed properly in radeon_gart_fini(). At the same time r6xx and newer allocated and freed the dummy page on their own. So to do Konrad's patch one better, just remove the allocation and freeing of the dummy page in the r6xx, 7xx, evergreen, and ni code and allocate and free in the gart_init/fini() functions for all asics.

Gaah. When commit be85bcca reverted the export of file system uuid via /proc/<pid>/mountinfo, it also unintentionally removed the s_uuid field in struct super_block. I didn't mean to do that, since filesystems have been taught to fill it in (and we want to keep it for future re-introduction in the mountinfo file). Stupid of me. This adds it back in.

nfs_scan_commit() is called with the inode->i_lock held, but it then calls __mark_inode_dirty() while still holding the lock. This causes a deadlock. Push the inode->i_lock into nfs_scan_commit() so it can protect only the parts of the code it needs to and can be dropped before the call to __mark_inode_dirty() to avoid the deadlock.

Commit 53a7706d ("mlock: do not hold mmap_sem for extended periods of time") changed mlock() to care about the exact number of pages that __get_user_pages() had brought it. Before, it would only care about errors. And that doesn't work, because we also handled one page specially in __mlock_vma_pages_range(), namely the stack guard page. So when that case was handled, the number of pages that the function returned was off by one. In particular, it could be zero, and then the caller would end up not making any progress at all. Rather than try to fix up that off-by-one error for the mlock case specially, this just moves the logic to handle the stack guard page into__get_user_pages() itself, thus making all the counts come out right automatically.

This reverts commit 93f1c20b. It turns out that libmount misparses it because it adds a '-' character in the uuid string, which libmount then incorrectly confuses with the separator string (" - ") at the end of all the optional arguments. Upstream libmount (in the util-linux tree) has been fixed, but until that fix actually percolates up to users, we'd better not expose this change in the kernel. Let's revisit this later (possibly by exposing the UUID without any '-' characters in it, avoiding the user-space bug).

The EC version string is 6QHT28WW-1.09. The driver was requiring that both of these have 'WW' in positions 6 and 7.
