This patch fixes a bug on PPC where the kernel will oops if a process does a system call and the system call number is out of range. While fixing that, I noticed that if the process is being ptraced, an out-of-range system call will not get traced on the way in but will on the way out. This patch fixes that too, by making it get traced on the way in as well as the way out. It turned out to be less change, and fewer instructions overall, to do that than to make the out-of-range system call not be traced at all.

Early ACPI table parse for HPET tables has a bug, where in it does not do proper set_fixmap for ACPI-HPET table. This bug was lost in oversight, and was not noticed during my testing too, as the ACPI-HPET table on all my test systems happened to be in 1st Gig of memory (where __va() will do the job).

The 2.4 megaraid driver recognizes the Intel PCI vendor id whereas the 2.6 driver does not. The attached patch against 2.6.0-test9 adds the missing two lines from the 2.4 driver to enable this.

The #ifdef CONFIG_SMP around the call to schedule_tail was removed a long time ago for native ia64, but ia32 emulation continues to have a #ifdef. We saw a bunch of weird behavior with respect to getpid() on multithreaded programs (they behave ok on SMP, but break on UP).

This forward-ports some more of the ALI IDE sanity checks from the 2.4.x tree. In particular, we only do the enable bits for revisions < 0xC5

This leaves just the minimal oops protection in place, and maintains the logic that "if we have a non-ALI northbridge, we shouldn't touch any of the GPIOs because we don't know what they might be connected to".

- Mucking with the original skb pointers with push/pull around the packet quoting was wrong, muching with these pointers could cause problems with others using the SKB. It was also buggy, it only handled the case where skb->nh.raw was ahead of or equal to skb->data - The fix is to record skb->nh.raw - skb->data and use this as a base offset in calls to skb_copy_and_csum_bits(). This is what the pre-IPSEC code did. This fixes IPV6 oopses and packet corruption on 64-bit platforms when sending UDP port unreachable ICMP messages. Reported and analyzed by Jan Oravec (jan.oravec@6com.sk)

signal handler. Otherwise, a restarted system call that gets interrupted before the restart has taken effect by _another_ signal will potentially restart the wrong system call.

It would oops on any machines that had an ALI northbridge but didn't have the exact ISA bridge we expected.

The problem with clock_nanosleep() restarting was that the address of the users return timespec was being saved at the wrong place. In needs to be saved in the sys call interface code rather than the do_clock_nanosleep(). My original tests were a bit weak as they only did one signal rather than two or more which were required to break it. The attached patch fixes the problem. I also added a few comments about how restart works, and added my name to the MAINTAINERS list.

The bug is probably impossible to trigger on x86, due to its fairly strong coherency model (the SMP-safe bitops end up being memory barriers etc), but other architectures - notably ppc64 - can apparently trigger a race whereby the signal sender doesn't wake up the target because it doesn't notice that it has gone to sleep. The optimization also optimizes only what appears to be the uncommon case, where the signal happens for an already-running process.

This makes the AIO submit path holds an extra reference until just before returning. This fixes the referencing a free kiocb. Without this patch the kernel will oops if the AIO completes early.

Noticed by Petr Vandrovec. In the out-of-memory case, do_wp_page() would unlock page_table_lock twice - once before allocating, and once in the exit path. Rewrite the exit paths to be more readable, and don't try to share the code between all the exit cases, since they are very different.
