      Fix compile breakage with kref.h · 67175b85
      James Bottomley authored 
      This set of build failures just started appearing on parisc:

  In file included from drivers/input/serio/serio_raw.c:12:
  include/linux/kref.h: In function 'kref_get':
  include/linux/kref.h:40: error: 'TAINT_WARN' undeclared (first use in this function)
  include/linux/kref.h:40: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
  include/linux/kref.h:40: error: for each function it appears in.)
  include/linux/kref.h: In function 'kref_sub':
  include/linux/kref.h:65: error: 'TAINT_WARN' undeclared (first use in this function)

It happens because TAINT_WARN is defined in kernel.h and this particular
compile doesn't seem to include it (no idea why it's just manifesting ..
probably some #include file untangling exposed it).

Fix by adding

  #include <linux/kernel.h>

to linux/kref.h

      proc: clean up and fix /proc/<pid>/mem handling · e268337d
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Jüri Aedla reported that the /proc/<pid>/mem handling really isn't very
robust, and it also doesn't match the permission checking of any of the
other related files.

This changes it to do the permission checks at open time, and instead of
tracking the process, it tracks the VM at the time of the open.  That
simplifies the code a lot, but does mean that if you hold the file
descriptor open over an execve(), you'll continue to read from the _old_
VM.

That is different from our previous behavior, but much simpler.  If
somebody actually finds a load where this matters, we'll need to revert
this commit.

I suspect that nobody will ever notice - because the process mapping
addresses will also have changed as part of the execve.  So you cannot
actually usefully access the fd across a VM change simply because all
the offsets for IO would have changed too.

      cfq-iosched: fix use-after-free of cfqq · 54b466e4
      Jens Axboe authored 
      With the changes in life time management between the cfq IO contexts
and the cfq queues, we now risk having cfqd->active_queue being
freed when cfq_slice_expired() is being called. cfq_preempt_queue()
caches this queue and uses it after calling said function, causing
a use-after-free condition. This triggers the following oops,
when cfqq_type() attempts to dereference it:

Get rid of the caching of cfqd->active_queue, and reorder the
check so that it happens before we expire the active queue.

Thanks to Tejun for pin pointing the error location.

      Revert "capabitlies: ns_capable can use the cap helpers rather than lsm call" · 951880e6
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      This reverts commit d2a7009f.

J. R. Okajima explains:

 "After this commit, I am afraid access(2) on NFS may not work
  correctly.  The scenario based upon my guess.
   - access(2) overrides the credentials.
   - calls inode_permission() -- ... -- generic_permission() --
      ns_capable().
   - while the old ns_capable() calls security_capable(current_cred()),
     the new ns_capable() calls has_ns_capability(current) --
     security_capable(__task_cred(t)).

  current_cred() returns current->cred which is effective (overridden)
  credentials, but __task_cred(current) returns current->real_cred (the
  NFSD's credential).  And the overridden credentials by access(2) lost."

      mce: fix warning messages about static struct mce_device · e032d807
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored 
      When suspending, there was a large list of warnings going something like:

	Device 'machinecheck1' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed

This patch turns the static mce_devices into dynamically allocated, and
properly frees them when they are removed from the system.  It solves
the warning messages on my laptop here.
