This is the third respin of the patch posted yesterday to fix the error handling in cifs_follow_symlink. It also includes a fix for a bogus NULL pointer check in CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink that Jeff Moyer spotted. It's possible for CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink to return without setting target_path to a valid pointer. If that happens then the current value to which we're initializing this pointer could cause an oops when it's kfree'd. This patch is a little more comprehensive than the last patches. It reorganizes cifs_follow_link a bit for (hopefully) better readability. It should also eliminate the uneeded allocation of full_path on servers without unix extensions (assuming they can get to this point anyway, of which I'm not convinced). On a side note, I'm not sure I agree with the logic of enabling this query even when unix extensions are disabled on the client. It seems like that should disable this as well. But, changing that is outside the scope of this fix, so I've left it alone for now.

Processor idle power states C2 and C3 stop the TSC on many machines. Linux recognizes this situation and marks the TSC as unstable: Marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts in idle But if those same machines are booted with "processor.max_cstate=1", then there is no need to validate C2 and C3, and no need to disable the TSC, which can be reliably used as a clocksource.

This patch provides new heuristics for parsing both the form factor and media rotation rate ATA IDENFITY words. The reported ATA version must be 7 or greater and the device must return values defined as valid in the standard. Only then are the characteristics reported to SCSI via the VPD B1 page. This seems like a reasonable compromise to me considering that we have been shipping several kernel releases that key off the rotation rate bit without any version checking whatsoever. With no complaints so far. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

devpts_get_sb() calls memset(0) to clear mount options and calls parse_mount_options() if user specified any mount options. The memset(0) is bogus since the 'mode' and 'ptmxmode' options are non-zero by default. parse_mount_options() restores options to default anyway and can properly deal with NULL mount options. So in devpts_get_sb() remove memset(0) and call parse_mount_options() even for NULL mount options. Bug reported by Eric Paris: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/5/7/448.

If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same time, there is nothing protecting the i_cached_extent structure from being used and updated at the same time. This could potentially cause the wrong location on disk to be read or written to, including potentially causing the corruption of the block group descriptors and/or inode table. This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of ext4's development. Fortunately once the data is stored in the page cache cache, ext4_get_blocks() doesn't need to be called, so trying to replicate this problem to the point where we could identify its root cause was *extremely* difficult. Many thanks to Kevin Shanahan for working over several months to be able to reproduce this easily so we could finally nail down the cause of the corruption.

The treatment of the SP register is different on x86_64 and i386. This is a regression fix that lived outside the mainline kernel from 2.6.27 to now. The regression was a result of the original merge consolidation of the i386 and x86_64 archs to x86. The incorrectly reported SP on i386 prevented stack tracebacks from working correctly in gdb.

Commit 79e53945 introduced a regression where you cannot use sysrq 'g' to enter kgdb. The solution is to move the intel fb sysrq over to V for video instead of G for graphics. The SMP VOYAGER code to register for the sysrq-v is not anywhere to be found in the mainline kernel, so the comments in the code were cleaned up as well. This patch also cleans up the sysrq definitions for kgdb to make it generic for the kernel debugger, such that the sysrq 'g' can be used in the future to enter a gdbstub or another kernel debugger.

This reverts commit fafd688e. Work is progressing to switch away from pdflush as the process backing for flushing out dirty data. So it seems pointless to add more knobs to control pdflush threads. The original author of the patch did not have any specific use cases for adding the knobs, so we can easily revert this before 2.6.30 to avoid having to maintain this API forever.
