Hugh Dickins 6f66cbc630 x86 microcode: revert some work_on_cpu
Revert part of af5c820a31 ("x86: cpumask:
use work_on_cpu in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c")

That change is causing only one Intel CPU's microcode to be updated e.g.
microcode: CPU3 updated from revision 0x9 to 0x17, date = 2005-04-22
where before it announced that also for CPU0 and CPU1 and CPU2.

We cannot use work_on_cpu() in the CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE code,
because Intel's request_microcode_user() involves a copy_from_user() from
/sbin/microcode_ctl, which therefore needs to be on that CPU at the time.

David Howells 2344b5b685 Fix lpfc_parse_bg_err()'s use of do_div()
Fix lpfc_parse_bg_err()'s use of do_div().  It should be passing a 64-bit
variable as the first parameter.  However, since it's only using a 32-bit
variable, it doesn't need to use do_div() at all, but can instead use the
division operator.

This deals with the following warnings:

ACM sets the low latency flag but calls the flip buffer routines from

Fortunatelt ACM doesn't need to set this flag in the first place as it
only set it to work around problems in ancient (pre tty flip rewrite)

Ingo Molnar 27b19565fe lockdep: warn about lockdep disabling after kernel taint, fix
Impact: build fix for Sparc and s390

Stephen Rothwell reported that the Sparc build broke:

 In file included from kernel/panic.c:12:
 include/linux/debug_locks.h: In function '__debug_locks_off':
 include/linux/debug_locks.h:15: error: implicit declaration of function 'xchg'

due to:

 9eeba61: lockdep: warn about lockdep disabling after kernel taint

There is some inconsistency between architectures about where exactly
xchg() is defined.

The traditional place is in system.h but the more logical point for it
is in atomic.h - where most architectures (especially new ones) have
it defined. These architecture also still offer it via system.h.

Some, such as Sparc or s390 only have it in asm/system.h and not available
via asm/atomic.h at all.

Use the widest set of headers in debug_locks.h and also include asm/system.h.

 "OK, the acpi tree went and had conflicting changes merged into it after

Jan Kara 316cb4ef3e ext2: fix data corruption for racing writes
If two writers allocating blocks to file race with each other (e.g.
because writepages races with ordinary write or two writepages race with
each other), ext2_getblock() can be called on the same inode in parallel.
Before we are going to allocate new blocks, we have to recheck the block
chain we have obtained so far without holding truncate_mutex.  Otherwise
we could overwrite the indirect block pointer set by the other writer
leading to data loss.

The below test program by Ying is able to reproduce the data loss with ext2
on in BRD in a few minutes if the machine is under memory pressure:

long kMemSize  = 50 << 20;
int kPageSize = 4096;

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
	int status;
	int count = 0;
	int i;
	char *fname = "/mnt/test.mmap";
	char *mem;
	unlink(fname);
	int fd = open(fname, O_CREAT | O_EXCL | O_RDWR, 0600);
	status = ftruncate(fd, kMemSize);
	mem = mmap(0, kMemSize, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
	// Fill the memory with 1s.
	memset(mem, 1, kMemSize);
	sleep(2);
	for (i = 0; i < kMemSize; i++) {
		int byte_good = mem[i] != 0;
		if (!byte_good && ((i % kPageSize) == 0)) {
			//printf("%d ", i / kPageSize);
			count++;
		}
	}
	munmap(mem, kMemSize);
	close(fd);
	unlink(fname);

	if (count > 0) {
		printf("Running %d bad page\n", count);
		return 1;
	}
	return 0;
}

Hugh Dickins caefba1740 shmem: respect MAX_LFS_FILESIZE
SHMEM_MAX_BYTES was derived from the maximum size of its triple-indirect
swap vector, forgetting to take the MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit into account.
Never mind 256kB pages, even 8kB pages on 32-bit kernels allowed files to
grow slightly bigger than that supposed maximum.

Fix this by using the min of both (at build time not run time).  And it
happens that this calculation is good as far as 8MB pages on 32-bit or
16MB pages on 64-bit: though SHMSWP_MAX_INDEX gets truncated before that,
it's truncated to such large numbers that we don't need to care.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: it needs pagemap.h]

Yuri Tikhonov 61609d01cb shmem: fix division by zero
Fix a division by zero which we have in shmem_truncate_range() and
shmem_unuse_inode() when using big PAGE_SIZE values (e.g.  256kB on
ppc44x).

With 256kB PAGE_SIZE, the ENTRIES_PER_PAGEPAGE constant becomes too large
(0x1.0000.0000) on a 32-bit kernel, so this patch just changes its type
from 'unsigned long' to 'unsigned long long'.

Hugh: reverted its unsigned long longs in shmem_truncate_range() and
shmem_getpage(): the pagecache index cannot be more than an unsigned long,
so the divisions by zero occurred in unreached code.  It's a pity we need
any ULL arithmetic here, but I found no pretty way to avoid it.

Stefan Husemann 347486bb10 intelfb: support i854
Support the Intel 854 Chipset in fbdev.

We test and use the patch on a Thomson IP1101 IPTV-Box.  On the VGA-Port
we get a normal signal.

Michael Ellerman a55ce6dc70 mm: add documentation describing what tsk->active_mm means vs tsk->mm
I'm sure everyone knows this, but I didn't, so I googled it, and found a
nice explanation from Linus.  Might be worth sticking in Documentation.
