      Pull devicetree bugfix from Grant Likely:
       "One more bug fix for v3.18.  I debated whether or not to send you this
        merge request because we're at such a late rc.  The bug isn't critical
        in that there is only one system known to be affected and the patch is
        easy to backport.  The codepath is used by pretty much every DT based
        system, so there is risk a of regression (it /should/ be safe, but
        I've been bitten by stuff that should be safe before).  I've had it in
        linux-next for a week and haven't received any complaints.
      
        I think it probably should just be merged right away rather than
        waiting for the merge window and backporting.  It does fix a real bug
        and the code is theoretically safer after the change.  I can't think
        of any situation where it would be dangerous to reserve the DT memory
        an extra time.
      
        Summary from tag:
      
          Single bugfix for boot failure seen in the wild.  The memory reserve
          code tries to be clever about reserving the FDT, but it should just
          go ahead and reserve it unconditionally to avoid the problem of
          partial overlap described in the patch"

      slab: fix nodeid bounds check for non-contiguous node IDs · 7c3fbbdd
      Paul Mackerras authored
      The bounds check for nodeid in ____cache_alloc_node gives false
      positives on machines where the node IDs are not contiguous, leading to
      a panic at boot time.  For example, on a POWER8 machine the node IDs are
      typically 0, 1, 16 and 17.  This means that num_online_nodes() returns
      4, so when ____cache_alloc_node is called with nodeid = 16 the VM_BUG_ON
      triggers, like this:
      
        kernel BUG at /home/paulus/kernel/kvm/mm/slab.c:3079!
        Call Trace:
          .____cache_alloc_node+0x5c/0x270 (unreliable)
          .kmem_cache_alloc_node_trace+0xdc/0x360
          .init_list+0x3c/0x128
          .kmem_cache_init+0x1dc/0x258
          .start_kernel+0x2a0/0x568
          start_here_common+0x20/0xa8
      
      To fix this, we instead compare the nodeid with MAX_NUMNODES, and
      additionally make sure it isn't negative (since nodeid is an int).  The
      check is there mainly to protect the array dereference in the get_node()
      call in the next line, and the array being dereferenced is of size
      MAX_NUMNODES.  If the nodeid is in range but invalid (for example if the
      node is off-line), the BUG_ON in the next line will catch that.
      
      Fixes: 14e50c6a ("mm: slab: Verify the nodeid passed to ____cache_alloc_node")

      mm: fix anon_vma_clone() error treatment · c4ea95d7
      Daniel Forrest authored
      Andrew Morton noticed that the error return from anon_vma_clone() was
      being dropped and replaced with -ENOMEM (which is not itself a bug
      because the only error return value from anon_vma_clone() is -ENOMEM).
      
      I did an audit of callers of anon_vma_clone() and discovered an actual
      bug where the error return was being lost.  In __split_vma(), between
      Linux 3.11 and 3.12 the code was changed so the err variable is used
      before the call to anon_vma_clone() and the default initial value of
      -ENOMEM is overwritten.  So a failure of anon_vma_clone() will return
      success since err at this point is now zero.
      
      Below is a patch which fixes this bug and also propagates the error
      return value from anon_vma_clone() in all cases.
      
      Fixes: ef0855d3 ("mm: mempolicy: turn vma_set_policy() into vma_dup_policy()")

      mm: fix swapoff hang after page migration and fork · 2022b4d1
      Hugh Dickins authored
      I've been seeing swapoff hangs in recent testing: it's cycling around
      trying unsuccessfully to find an mm for some remaining pages of swap.
      
      I have been exercising swap and page migration more heavily recently,
      and now notice a long-standing error in copy_one_pte(): it's trying to
      add dst_mm to swapoff's mmlist when it finds a swap entry, but is doing
      so even when it's a migration entry or an hwpoison entry.
      
      Which wouldn't matter much, except it adds dst_mm next to src_mm,
      assuming src_mm is already on the mmlist: which may not be so.  Then if
      pages are later swapped out from dst_mm, swapoff won't be able to find
      where to replace them.
      
      There's already a !non_swap_entry() test for stats: move that up before
      the swap_duplicate() and the addition to mmlist.

      a) don't bother with ->d_time for positives - we only check it for

      b) make sure to set it at unlink and rmdir time - at *that* point
         soon-to-be negative dentry matches then-current directory contents

      ipc/sem.c: fully initialize sem_array before making it visible · e8577d1f
      Manfred Spraul authored
      ipc_addid() makes a new ipc identifier visible to everyone.  New objects
      start as locked, so that the caller can complete the initialization
      after the call.  Within struct sem_array, at least sma->sem_base and
      sma->sem_nsems are accessed without any locks, therefore this approach
      doesn't work.
      
      Thus: Move the ipc_addid() to the end of the initialization.
