mfd: twl4030 irq fixes
The TWL4030 IRQ handler has a bug which leads to spinlock lock-up. It is
calling the 'unmask' function in a process context. :The mask/unmask/ack

or the proper API interfaces found in linux/interrupt.h.
Also there is no need to have IRQ chaining mechanism. The right way to
handle this is to claim the parent interrupt as a standard interrupt
and arrange for handle_twl4030_pih to take care of the rest of the devices.

If gcc chooses to put flags on the stack, for instance because this is
inlined into a larger function with more register pressure, the offset
of the flags variable from the stack pointer will change when the
pushf is performed. gcc doesn't attempt to understand that fact, and
address used for pop will still be the same. It will write to
somewhere near flags on the stack but not actually into it and
overwrite some other value.
I saw this happen in the ide_device_add_all function when running in a
simulator I work on. I'm assuming that some quirk of how the simulated

it normally wouldn't.

This patch replaces md_integrity_check() by two new public functions:
md_integrity_register() and md_integrity_add_rdev() which are both
personality-independent.
md_integrity_register() is called from the ->run and ->hot_remove
methods of all personalities that support data integrity. The
function iterates over the component devices of the array and
determines if all active devices are integrity capable and if their
profiles match. If this is the case, the common profile is registered
for the mddev via blk_integrity_register().
The second new function, md_integrity_add_rdev() is called from the
->hot_add_disk methods, i.e. whenever a new device is being added
to a raid array. If the new device does not support data integrity,
or has a profile different from the one already registered, data
integrity for the mddev is disabled.

Userspace needs some love to support the two-stage ejection nicely,

thinkpad-acpi: disable broken bay and dock subdrivers
Currently, the ThinkPad-ACPI bay and dock drivers are completely
broken, and cause a NULL pointer derreference in kernel mode (and,
therefore, an OOPS) when they try to issue events (i.e. on dock,
undock, bay ejection, etc).
OTOH, the standard ACPI dock driver can handle the hotplug bays and

In fact, it does a much better job of it than thinkpad-acpi ever did.
It is just not worth the hassle to find a way to fix this crap without
breaking the (deprecated) thinkpad-acpi dock/bay ABI. This is old,
deprecated code that sees little testing or use.
As a quick fix suitable for -stable backports, mark the thinkpad-acpi
bay and dock subdrivers as BROKEN in Kconfig. The dead code will be
removed by a later patch.

do_sigaltstack: small cleanups
The previous commit ("do_sigaltstack: avoid copying 'stack_t' as a
structure to user space") fixed a real bug. This one just cleans up the
copy from user space to that gcc can generate better code for it (and so
that it looks the same as the later copy back to user space).

do_sigaltstack: avoid copying 'stack_t' as a structure to user space
Ulrich Drepper correctly points out that there is generally padding in
the structure on 64-bit hosts, and that copying the structure from
kernel to user space can leak information from the kernel stack in those
padding bytes.
Avoid the whole issue by just copying the three members one by one
instead, which also means that the function also can avoid the need for
a stack frame. This also happens to match how we copy the new structure
from user space, so it all even makes sense.
[ The obvious solution of adding a memset() generates horrid code, gcc
does really stupid things. ]
nilfs2: fix oops due to inconsistent state in page with discrete b-tree nodes
Andrea Gelmini gave me a report that a kernel oops hit on a nilfs
filesystem with a 1KB block size when doing rsync.
This turned out to be caused by an inconsistency of dirty state
between a page and its buffers storing b-tree node blocks.
If the page had multiple buffers split over multiple logs, and if the
logs were written at a time, a dirty flag remained in the page even
every dirty flag in the buffers was cleared.
This will fix the failure by dropping the dirty flag properly for
pages with the discrete multiple b-tree nodes.

lib/scatterlist: add a flags to signalize mapping direction
sg_miter_start() is currently unaware of the direction of the copy
process (to or from the scatter list). It is important to know the
direction because the page has to be flushed in case the data written
is seen on a different mapping in user land on cache incoherent
architectures.

xfs: reduce bmv_count in xfs_vn_fiemap
commit 6321e3ed2acf3ee9643cdd403e1c88605d7944ba caused
the full bmv_count's worth of getbmapx structures to get
allocated; telling it to do MAXEXTNUM was a bit insane,
resulting in ENOMEM every time.
Chop it down to something reasonable, the number of slots
in the caller's input buffer. If this is too large the
caller may get ENOMEM but the reason should not be a
mystery, and they can try again with something smaller.
We add 1 to the value because in the normal getbmap
world, bmv_count includes the header and xfs_getbmap does:

Changeset 3869c4aa18835c8c61b44bd0f3ace36e9d3b5bd0
that went in after 2.6.30-rc1 was a seemingly small change to _set_memory_wc()
to make it complaint with SDM requirements. But, introduced a nasty bug, which
can result in crash and/or strange corruptions when set_memory_wc is used.
One such crash reported here
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/30/94
Actually, that changeset introduced two bugs.
* change_page_attr_set() takes &addr as first argument and can the addr value
might have changed on return, even for single page change_page_attr_set()
call. That will make the second change_page_attr_set() in this routine
operate on unrelated addr, that can eventually cause strange corruptions
and bad page state crash.
* The second change_page_attr_set() call, before setting _PAGE_CACHE_WC, should
clear the earlier _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS, as otherwise cache attribute will not
be WC (will be UC instead).
The patch below fixes both these problems. Sending a single patch to fix both
the problems, as the change is to the same line of code. The change to have a
addr_copy is not very clean. But, it is simpler than making more changes
through various routines in pageattr.c.
A huge thanks to Jerome for reporting this problem and providing a simple test
case that helped us root cause the problem.
