      x86: fix up system call numbering nit · 8cbd84f2
      Linus Torvalds authored
      As pointed out by Jiri Slaby: when I resolved the the 32-bit x85 system
      call entry tables for prlimit (due to the conflict with fanotify), I
      forgot to add the numbering in comments that we do for every fifth entry.

      Randy Dunlap authored
      'make htmldocs' produces errors due to missing a supporting media
      file, so add 'xmldoclinks' to the htmldocs dependencies so that the
      needed supporting file will be present.

      docbook: fix fatal error from libata · 3d2be54b
      Randy Dunlap authored
      'make htmldocs' has a fatal error when processing libata.xml, as seen
      below.  The string "Example patterns:" (or any string with "example.*:"
      in it AFAIK) causes some part of the doc generation tool chain to try to
      produce an <informalexample> block without a beginning <para>, but
      there is an ending </para> generated, which throws things out of kilter.
      
      I don't even know where (what program) this is happening in.
      I searched in docproc and xmlto and in some XML stylesheets without
      finding anything.  If anyone can give me pointers about this, please do.
      Until this is fixed, let's just spell "Example" as "Sample"
      and match up the double quotation marks while there.

      jfs: don't allow os2 xattr namespace overlap with others · aca0fa34
      Dave Kleikamp authored
      It's currently possible to bypass xattr namespace access rules by
      prefixing valid xattr names with "os2.", since the os2 namespace stores
      extended attributes in a legacy format with no prefix.
      
      This patch adds checking to deny access to any valid namespace prefix
      following "os2.".
