This fixes some issues with restoring the altivec and/or FPU registers
upon return from a signal or when setting a context.  It also add a
proper stack backlink to the signal frames created for 64 bits

This patch changes our open specifically for clustering software. We must
allow root to access any volume or device with a LUN ID. We also modified
our revalidate function for this reason.
If a logical is reserved, we must register it with the OS with size=0. Then
the backup system can call BLKRRPART after breaking the reservation to
set the device to the correct size.
We also must register a controller with no logical volumes for the online
utilities to function. This is the way we've done it since the 2.2 kernel.
Which doesn't neccesarily make it right, but we have legacy apps to consider.

The firmware loader has a security issue.  Firmware on some devices can
write to all memory through DMA.  Therefore the ability to feed firmware
to the kernel is equivalent to writing to /dev/kmem.  CAP_SYS_RAWIO is
needed to protect itself.

[ Editors note: the firmware file is 0644, and owned by root, so this
  "security issue" is really only an issue for people who use
  capabilities explicitly, rather than the regular Unix permissions.
  This patch makes it do the same checks we do for /dev/mem etc.  ]

Fix some bugs in the kswapd logic which can cause kswapd lockups.

The balance_pgdat() logic is supposed to cause kswapd to loop across all zones
in the node until each zone either

	a) has enough pages free or

	b) is deemed to be in an "all pages unreclaimable" state.

In the latter case, we just give the zone a light scan on each balance_pgdat()
scan and wait for the zone to come back to life again.

But the zone->all_unreclaimable logic is broken - if the zone has no pages on
the LRU at all, we perform no scanning of that zone (of course).  So the
zone->pages_scanned is not incremented and the expression

		if (zone->pages_scanned > zone->present_pages * 2)
			zone->all_unreclaimable = 1;

never is satisfied.

The patch changes that logic to

		if (zone->pages_scanned >= (zone->nr_active +
						zone->nr_inactive) * 4)
			zone->all_unreclaimable = 1;

so if the zone has no LRU pages it will still enter the all_unreclaimable
state.


Another problem is that if the zone has no LRU pages we will tell
shrink_slab() that we scanned zero LRU pages.  This causes shrink_slab() to
scan zero slab objects, which is obviously wrong.  So change shrink_slab() to
perform a decent chunk of slab scanning in this situation.


And put a cond_resched() into the balance_pgdat() outer loop.  Probably
unnecessary, but that's what Jeff had in place when he confirmed that this
patch fixed the lockup :(

That sounds like a good suggestion.  Even better, instead of adding a new
field we can simply use the existing inquiry_length.

This patch changes scsi_probe_lun() to use the value in
sdev->inquiry_length for the first INQUIRY attempt, if that value is
nonzero.  Subsequent attempts are based, as before, on the blacklist flags
and the Additional Length field in the INQUIRY data.

The patch also contains a fairly extensive reorganization of the
subroutine.  All the code that was duplicated for sending the INQUIRY
command twice has been consolidated.  The routine now makes up to three
passes:

	In the first pass, the transfer length is the value initially
	found in sdev->inquiry_length if that has been set, otherwise
	it is the current conservative 36 bytes.

	If the first pass succeeds, the routine retrieves the blist flags
	for the device and checks the Additional Length field.  The blist
	flags take precedence over sdev->inquiry_length, which in turn
	takes precedence over the Additional Length.  If it turns out
	there is more data available than we transferred the first time,
	a second pass tries to get it.

	If the second pass succeeds the INQUIRY data may have changed,
	so the blist flags are looked up again and the Additional Length
	is checked again.  If not, a third pass tries to get the data
	back, using the same transfer length as the first pass.

Finally, the value stored in sdev->inquiry_length is set to the amount
actually transferred or the size computed from the Additional Length,
whichever is smaller.

Although the net change in the source file size is small, the new routine
has more comments and less code.  Overall I think it's an improvement.
