commit 95aac7b1 ("epoll: make epoll_wait() use the hrtimer range feature") added a performance regression because it uses timespec_add_ns() with potential very large 'ns' values.

If migrate_huge_page by memory-failure fails , it calls put_page in itself to decrease page reference and caller of migrate_huge_page also calls putback_lru_pages. It can do double free of page so it can make page corruption on page holder. In addtion, clean of pages on caller is consistent behavior with migrate_pages by cf608ac1 ("mm: compaction: fix COMPACTPAGEFAILED counting").

noswapaccount couldn't be used to control memsw for both on/off cases so we have added swapaccount[=0|1] parameter. This way we can turn the feature in two ways noswapaccount resp. swapaccount=0. We have kept the original noswapaccount but I think we should remove it after some time as it just makes more command line parameters without any advantages and also the code to handle parameters is uglier if we want both parameters.

__setup based kernel command line parameters handlers which are handled in obsolete_checksetup are provided with the parameter value including = (more precisely everything right after the parameter name). This means that the current implementation of swapaccount[=1|0] doesn't work at all because if there is a value for the parameter then we are testing for "0" resp. "1" but we are getting "=0" resp. "=1" and if there is no parameter value we are getting an empty string rather than NULL. The original noswapccount parameter, which doesn't care about the value, works correctly.

As Tao Ma noticed, change 5ecfda04 breaks blktrace. This is because blktrace mmaps a file with PROT_WRITE permissions but without PROT_READ, so my attempt to not unnecessarity break COW during mlock ended up causing mlock to fail with a permission problem. I am proposing to let mlock ignore vma protection in all cases except PROT_NONE. In particular, mlock should not fail for PROT_WRITE regions (as in the blktrace case, which broke at 5ecfda04) or for PROT_EXEC regions (which seem to me like they were always broken).

The cERROR message in checkSMB when the calculated length doesn't match the RFC1001 length is incorrect in many cases. It always says that the RFC1001 length is bigger than the SMB, even when it's actually the reverse. Fix the error message to say the reverse of what it does now when the SMB length goes beyond the end of the received data. Also, clarify the error message when the RFC length is too big. Finally, clarify the comments to show that the 512 byte limit on extra data at the end of the packet is arbitrary.

Allow non-ARM SMP processors to use the SMP_ON_UP feature. CPUs supporting SMP must have the new CPU ID format, so check for this first. Then check for ARM11MPCore, which fails the MPIDR check. Lastly check the MPIDR reports multiprocessing extensions and that the CPU is part of a multiprocessing system.

Disable the initrd if the passed address already overlaps the reserved region. This avoids oopses on Netwinders when NeTTrom tells the kernel that an initrd is located at mem+4MB, but this overlaps the BSS, resulting in the kernels in-use BSS being freed.

Currently, we allow the pending_mid_q to grow without bound with SIGKILL'ed processes. This could eventually be a DoS'able problem. An unprivileged user could a process that does a long-running call and then SIGKILL it. If he can also intercept the NT_CANCEL calls or the replies from the server, then the pending_mid_q could grow very large, possibly even to 2^16 entries which might leave GetNextMid in an infinite loop. Fix this by imposing a hard limit of 32k calls per server. If we cross that limit, set the tcpStatus to CifsNeedReconnect to force cifsd to eventually reconnect the socket and clean out the pending_mid_q. While we're at it, clean up the function a bit and eliminate an unnecessary NULL pointer check.

Currently, when a request is cancelled via signal, we delete the mid immediately. If the request was already transmitted however, the client is still likely to receive a response. When it does, it won't recognize it however and will pop a printk. It's also a little dangerous to just delete the mid entry like this. We may end up reusing that mid. If we do then we could potentially get the response from the first request confused with the later one. Prevent the reuse of mids by marking them as cancelled and keeping them on the pending_mid_q list. If the reply comes in, we'll delete it from the list then. If it never comes, then we'll delete it at reconnect or when cifsd comes down.
