We cannot do direct inode reclaim without taking the flush lock to ensure that we do not reclaim an inode under IO. We check the inode is clean before doing direct reclaim, but this is not good enough because the inode flush code marks the inode clean once it has copied the in-core dirty state to the backing buffer. It is the flush lock that determines whether the inode is still under IO, even though it is marked clean, and the inode is still required at IO completion so we can't reclaim it even though it is clean in core. Hence the requirement that we need to take the flush lock even on clean inodes because this guarantees that the inode writeback IO has completed and it is safe to reclaim the inode. With delayed write inode flushing, we coul dend up waiting a long time on the flush lock even for a clean inode. The background reclaim already handles this efficiently, so avoid all the problems by killing the direct reclaim path altogether.

The reclaim code will handle flushing of dirty inodes before reclaim occurs, so avoid them when determining whether an inode is a candidate for flushing to disk when walking the radix trees.

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/megaraid_sas/poll_mode_io defaults to being world-writable, which seems bad (letting any user affect kernel driver behavior). This turns off group and user write permissions, so that on typical production systems only root can write to it. Signed-off-by: Bryn M.

There are two copies of list_sort() in the tree already, one in the DRM code, another in ubifs. Now XFS needs this as well.

Fix compilation breakage of all m68knommu targets: CC arch/m68knommu/kernel/asm-offsets.s In file included from include/linux/sched.h:77, from arch/m68knommu/kernel/asm-offsets.c:12: include/linux/percpu.h: In function 'per_cpu_ptr_to_phys': include/linux/percpu.h:161: error: implicit declaration of function 'virt_to_phy This is broken in linux-2.6.33-rc3. Change the definitions of __pa() and __va() to not use virt_to_phys() and phys_to_virt(). Trivial 1:1 conversion required for the non-MMU case. A side effect if this is that the m68knommu can now use asm/virtconvert.h for the definition of virt_to_phys() and phys_to_virt(). Also cleaned up the definition of page_to_phys() when moving into virtconvert.h. Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When sata_promise encounters an overrun or underrun error it translates that to a libata AC_ERR_HSM, causing a hard reset. Since over/under-runs were thought to be rare and transient, this action seemed reasonable. Unfortunately it turns out that the controller throws overrun errors when e.g. hal polls a CD or DVD writer containing blank media, causing long sequences of hard resets and retries before EH finally gives up. This patch updates sata_promise to classify over/under-runs as AC_ERR_OTHER instead. This allows libata EH and upper layers to retry or fail the operation as they see fit without the disruption caused by repeated hard resets. This fixes a problem using a DVD-RAM drive with sata_promise, reported by Thomas Schorpp. I also tested it on a DVD-RW drive.
