Oleg Nesterov 247284481c Kill some obsolete sub-thread-ptrace stuff
There is a couple of subtle checks which were needed to handle ptracing from
the same thread group. This was deprecated a long ago, imho this code just
complicates the understanding.

And, the "->parent->signal->flags & SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT" check in exit_notify()
is not right. SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT can mean exec(), not exit_group(). This means
ptracer can lose a ptraced zombie on exec(). Minor problem, but still the bug.

Michael Neuling 67439b76f2 [POWERPC] Fixes for the SLB shadow buffer code
On a machine with hardware 64kB pages and a kernel configured for a
64kB base page size, we need to change the vmalloc segment from 64kB
pages to 4kB pages if some driver creates a non-cacheable mapping in
the vmalloc area.  However, we never updated with SLB shadow buffer.
This fixes it.  Thanks to paulus for finding this.

Also added some write barriers to ensure the shadow buffer contents
are always consistent.

Michael Ellerman b9c3fdb0f0 [POWERPC] Fix parse_drconf_memory() for 64-bit start addresses
Some new machines use the "ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory" property
to provide memory layout information, rather than via memory nodes.

There is a bug in the code to parse this property for start addresses
over 4GB; we store the start address in an unsigned int, which means
we throw away the high bits and add apparently duplicate regions.
This results in a BUG() in free_bootmem_core().  This fixes it by
using an unsigned long instead.

Kevin Corry 17aa3a82aa [POWERPC] Fix num_cpus calculation in smp_call_function_map()
In smp_call_function_map(), num_cpus is set to the number of online
CPUs minus one.  However, if the CPU mask does not include all CPUs
(except the one we're running on), the routine will hang in the first
while() loop until the 8 second timeout occurs.

The num_cpus should be set to the number of CPUs specified in the mask
passed into the routine, after we've made any modifications to the
mask.  With this change, we can also get rid of the call to
cpus_empty() and avoid adding another pass through the bitmask.

This patch fixes affinity reference point placement, which was not being
done in some situations, after the introduction of node_allowed() calls.

The previously used parameter, 'ctx', is just the iterator of the
previous list_for_each_entry_reverse loop, and its value might be
invalid at the end of the loop. Also, the right context to seek
for information when defining the reference ctx location
_is_ the reference ctx.

The code for mapping special 4k pages on kernels using a 64kB base
page size was missing the code for doing the RPN (real page number)

bucket.  It needs the same code as has already been added to the
code that inserts the HPTE in the primary hash bucket.  This adds it.

Joy Latten 4a4b6271a8 [PF_KEY]: Fix ipsec not working in 2.6.23-rc1-git10
Although an ipsec SA was established, kernel couldn't seem to find it.

I think since we are now using "x->sel.family" instead of "family" in
the xfrm_selector_match() called in xfrm_state_find(), af_key needs to
set this field too, just as xfrm_user.

In af_key.c, x->sel.family only gets set when there's an
ext_hdrs[SADB_EXT_ADDRESS_PROXY-1] which I think is for tunnel.

I think pfkey needs to also set the x->sel.family field when it is 0.

Tested with below patch, and ipsec worked when using pfkey.

David S. Miller 3516ffb0fe [TCP]: Invoke tcp_sendmsg() directly, do not use inet_sendmsg().
As discovered by Evegniy Polyakov, if we try to sendmsg after
a connection reset, we can do incredibly stupid things.

The core issue is that inet_sendmsg() tries to autobind the
socket, but we should never do that for TCP.  Instead we should
just go straight into TCP's sendmsg() code which will do all
of the necessary state and pending socket error checks.

TCP's sendpage already directly vectors to tcp_sendpage(), so this
merely brings sendmsg() in line with that.

This patch fixes up the defconfig for various sh7751r based boards
by updating them to the single cpu subtype CONFIG_CPU_SUBTYPE_SH7751R.
The following sh4 boards are updated: hs7751rvoip, landisk, lboxre2,
systemh, titan.

The current defconfigs with two subtypes defined trigger a configuration
bug which result in kernel configurations with missing board support
code. We end up with kernels without board code and with generic machvec
only.

Artem Bityutskiy 06a7643cd3 [MTD] [NAND] fix race in nand_base.c
When we mark block bad we have to get chip because this involves
writing to the page's OOB. We hit this bug in UBI - we observed
random obscure crashes when it marks block bad from the background
thread and there is some parallel task which utilizes flash.

This patch also adds a TODO note about BBT table protection which
it seems does not exist.

Roland Stigge 9d7b4b5562 [MTD] [NAND] Fix refactoring of EDB7312 hwcontrol function.
The patch ensures that the current code (kernel 2.6.22) uses the bits
like the code prior to the refactoring. The variable "bits" is employed
in a useful way now.
