In __writeback_single_inode(), when we find a locked inode and we're not
doing a data-integrity sync, we used to just skip writing entirely,
since we didn't want to wait for the inode to unlock.
However, there's really no reason to skip writing the data pages, which
are likely to be the the bulk of the dirty state anyway (and the main
reason why writeback was started for the non-data-integrity case, of
course!)

It's not pretty, but it appears that ext3 with data=journal will clean
pages without ever actually telling the VM that they are clean. This,
in turn, will result in the VM (and balance_dirty_pages() in particular)
to never realize that the pages got cleaned, and wait forever for an
event that already happened.
Technically, this seems to be a problem with ext3 itself, but it used to
be hidden by 'try_to_free_buffers()' noticing this situation on its own,
and just working around the filesystem problem.
This commit re-instates that hack, in order to avoid a regression for
the 2.6.20 release. This fixes bugzilla 7844:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7844
Peter Zijlstra points out that we should probably retain the debugging
code that this removes from cancel_dirty_page(), and I agree, but for
the imminent release we might as well just silence the warning too
(since it's not a new bug: anything that triggers that warning has been
around forever).

The commit 8e3d8433d8 ([NET]: MIPS
checksum annotations and cleanups) broke 64-bit MIPS.
The problem is the commit replaces some unsigned long with __be32. On
64bit MIPS, a __be32 (i.e. unsigned int) value is represented as a
sign-extented 32-bit value in a 64-bit argument register. So the
address 192.168.0.1 (0xc0a80001) is passed as 0xffffffffc0a80001 to
csum_tcpudp_nofold() but the asm code in the function expects
0x00000000c0a80001, therefore it returns a wrong checksum. Explicit
cast to unsigned long is needed to drop high 32bit.

Some ATA/ATAPI devices act weirdly after the link is put into slumber
mode. Some hang completely requiring physical power removal while
others fail to wake up till the link is hardreset a couple of times.
The addition of slumber on power down was never driven by real need.
It just followed what ahci spec said literally. The spec itself seems
faulty in that it doesn't consider devices (not controllers) which
don't support link powersaving mode.
Theory never matches reality when it comes to dark allys of cheap
ATA/ATAPI world. It's just unrealistic to expect vendors to test
rarely used link powersaving feature rigorously. This patch makes
ahci more friendly to the coldness of reality.
This shouldn't have any negative effect - when suspend operation
succeeds, we power off the whole machine; otherwise, we wake up
everything. I can't see any reason to be so elaborate with powering
down the link in the first place.

Several people reported issues with certain drive commands timing out on
sata_nv controllers running in ADMA mode. The commands in question were
non-DMA-mapped commands, usually FLUSH CACHE or FLUSH CACHE EXT.
From experimentation it appears that the NV_INT_DEV indication isn't
always set when a legitimate command completion interrupt is received on
a legacy-mode command, at least not on these controllers in ADMA mode.
When a command is pending on the port, force the flag on always in the
irq_stat value before calling nv_host_intr so that the drive busy state
is always checked by ata_host_intr.
This also fixes some questionable code in nv_host_intr which called
ata_check_status when a command was pending and ata_host_intr returned
"unhandled". If the device interrupted at just the wrong time this could
cause interrupts to be lost.

With the introduction of x_tables we accidentally broke compatibility
by defining IPT_TABLE_MAXNAMELEN to XT_FUNCTION_MAXNAMELEN instead of
XT_TABLE_MAXNAMELEN, which is two bytes larger.
On most architectures it doesn't really matter since we don't have
any tables with names that long in the kernel and the structure
layout didn't change because of alignment requirements of following
members. On CRIS however (and other architectures that don't align
data) this changed the structure layout and thus broke compatibility
with old iptables binaries.
Changing it back will break compatibility with binaries compiled
against recent kernels again, but since the breakage has only been
there for three releases this seems like the better choice.

I encountered a kernel panic with my test program, which is a very
simple IPv6 client-server program.
The server side sets IPV6_RECVPKTINFO on a listening socket, and the
client side just sends a message to the server. Then the kernel panic
occurs on the server. (If you need the test program, please let me
know. I can provide it.)
This problem happens because a skb is forcibly freed in
tcp_rcv_state_process().
When a socket in listening state(TCP_LISTEN) receives a syn packet,
then tcp_v6_conn_request() will be called from
tcp_rcv_state_process(). If the tcp_v6_conn_request() successfully
returns, the skb would be discarded by __kfree_skb().
However, in case of a listening socket which was already set
IPV6_RECVPKTINFO, an address of the skb will be stored in
treq->pktopts and a ref count of the skb will be incremented in
tcp_v6_conn_request(). But, even if the skb is still in use, the skb
will be freed. Then someone still using the freed skb will cause the
kernel panic.
I suggest to use kfree_skb() instead of __kfree_skb().
