KVM: Avoid killing userspace through guest SRAO MCE on unmapped pages
In common cases, guest SRAO MCE will cause corresponding poisoned page
be un-mapped and SIGBUS be sent to QEMU-KVM, then QEMU-KVM will relay
the MCE to guest OS.
But it is reported that if the poisoned page is accessed in guest
after unmapping and before MCE is relayed to guest OS, userspace will
be killed.
The reason is as follows. Because poisoned page has been un-mapped,
guest access will cause guest exit and kvm_mmu_page_fault will be
called. kvm_mmu_page_fault can not get the poisoned page for fault
address, so kernel and user space MMIO processing is tried in turn. In
user MMIO processing, poisoned page is accessed again, then userspace
is killed by force_sig_info.
To fix the bug, kvm_mmu_page_fault send HWPOISON signal to QEMU-KVM
and do not try kernel and user space MMIO processing for poisoned
page.

The regression occurred because the behavior changed for setting
NOTIFY_STOP as the return value to the die notifier if the breakpoint
was known to the HW breakpoint API. Because kgdb is using the HW
breakpoint API to register HW breakpoints slots, it must also now
implement the overflow_handler call back else kgdb does not get to see

Recently my tagged sysfs support revealed a flaw in the device core
that a few rare drivers are running into such that we don't always put
network devices in a class subdirectory named net/.
Since we are not creating the class directory the network devices wind
up in a non-tagged directory, but the symlinks to the network devices
from /sys/class/net are in a tagged directory. All of which works
until we go to remove or rename the symlink. When we remove or rename
a symlink we look in the namespace of the target of the symlink.
Since the target of the symlink is in a non-tagged sysfs directory we
don't have a namespace to look in, and we fail to remove the symlink.
Detect this problem up front and simply don't create symlinks we won't
be able to remove later. This prevents symlink leakage and fails in
a much clearer and more understandable way.

initialization of the transfer flags. This caused initialization
failures in the ums-karma driver. Fix the regression by zeroing it.
While at it, as Alan Stern points out, the initializers for
actual_length and status are handled by the core and error_count
only matters for isochronous urbs, so they don't need to be set here.
Remove them.

USB: xhci: Set Mult field in endpoint context correctly.
The bmAttributes field of the SuperSpeed Endpoint Companion Descriptor has
different meanings, depending on the endpoint type. If the endpoint is
isochronous, the bmAttributes field is the maximum number of packets
within a service interval that this endpoint supports. If the endpoint is
bulk, it's the number of stream IDs this endpoint supports.
Only set the Mult field of the xHCI endpoint context using the
bmAttributes field if the endpoint is isochronous, and the device is a
SuperSpeed device.
