      mm, oom: fix badness score underflow · 1e11ad8d
      David Rientjes authored
      If the privileges given to root threads (3% of allowable memory) or a
      negative value of /proc/pid/oom_score_adj happen to exceed the amount of
      rss of a thread, its badness score overflows as a result of commit
      a7f638f9 ("mm, oom: normalize oom scores to oom_score_adj scale only
      for userspace").
      
      Fix this by making the type signed and return 1, meaning the thread is
      still eligible for kill, if the value is negative.

      Revert "drm/i915/crt: Do not rely upon the HPD presence pin" · 8f53369b
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts commit 9e612a00.
      
      It incorrectly finds VGA connectors where none are attached, apparently
      not noticing that nothing replied to the EDID queries, and happily using
      the default EDID modes that have nothing to do with actual hardware.
      
      That in turn then causes X to fall down to the lowest common
      denominator, which is usually the default 1024x768 mode that is in the
      default EDID and pretty much anything supports).
      
      I'd suggest that if not relying on the HDP pin, the code should at least
      check whether it gets valid EDID data back, rather than just assume
      there's something on the VGA connector.

      Revert "vfs: stop d_splice_alias creating directory aliases" · 32ba9c3f
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts commit 7732a557 (and commit
      3f50fff4, which was a follow-up
      cleanup).
      
      We're chasing an elusive bug that Dave Jones can apparently reproduce
      using his system call fuzzer tool, and that looks like some kind of
      locking ordering problem on the directory i_mutex chain.  Our i_mutex
      locking is rather complex, and depends on the topological ordering of
      the directories, which is why we have been very wary of splicing
      directory entries around.
      
      Of course, we really don't want to ever see aliased unconnected
      directories anyway, so none of this should ever happen, but this revert
      aims to basically get us back to a known older state.
      
      Bruce points to some of the previous discussion at
      
             http://marc.info/?i=<20110310105821.GE22723@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>
      
      and in particular a long post from Neil:
      
             http://marc.info/?i=<20110311150749.2fa2be66@notabene.brown>
      
      It should be noted that it's possible that Dave's problems come from
      other changes altohgether, including possibly just the fact that Dave
      constantly is teachning his fuzzer new tricks.  So what appears to be a
      new bug could in fact be an old one that just gets newly triggered, but
      reverting these patches as "still under heavy discussion" is the right
      thing regardless.
