After fixing the GPF in mem_cgroup_lru_del_list(), three times one
machine running a similar load (moving and removing memcgs while
swapping) has oopsed in mem_cgroup_zone_nr_lru_pages(), when retrieving
memcg zone numbers for get_scan_count() for shrink_mem_cgroup_zone():
this is where a struct mem_cgroup is first accessed after being chosen
by mem_cgroup_iter().
Just what protects a struct mem_cgroup from being freed, in between
mem_cgroup_iter()'s css_get_next() and its css_tryget()? css_tryget()
fails once css->refcnt is zero with CSS_REMOVED set in flags, yes: but
what if that memory is freed and reused for something else, which sets
"refcnt" non-zero? Hmm, and scope for an indefinite freeze if refcnt is
left at zero but flags are cleared.
It's tempting to move the css_tryget() into css_get_next(), to make it
really "get" the css, but I don't think that actually solves anything:
the same difficulty in moving from css_id found to stable css remains.
But we already have rcu_read_lock() around the two, so it's easily fixed
if __mem_cgroup_free() just uses kfree_rcu() to free mem_cgroup.
However, a big struct mem_cgroup is allocated with vzalloc() instead of
kzalloc(), and we're not allowed to vfree() at interrupt time: there
doesn't appear to be a general vfree_rcu() to help with this, so roll
our own using schedule_work(). The compiler decently removes
vfree_work() and vfree_rcu() when the config doesn't need them.

As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do

Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f2
("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate

This patch fixes a buffer overrun bug in
tracepoint_id_to_path(). The bug manisfested itself as a memory
error reported by perf record. I ran into it with perf sched:
$ perf sched rec noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds
[ perf record: Woken up 14 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 42.701 MB perf.data (~1865622 samples) ]
Fatal: No memory to alloc tracepoints list
It turned out that tracepoint_id_to_path() was reading the
tracepoint id using read() but the buffer was not large enough
to include the \n terminator for id with 4 digits or more.
The patch fixes the problem by extending the buffer to a more
reasonable size covering all possible id length include \n
terminator. Note that atoll() stops at the first non digit
character, thus it is not necessary to clear the buffer between
each read.

Is possible that we stop queue and then do not wake up it again,
especially when packets are transmitted fast. That can be easily
reproduced with modified tx queue entry_num to some small value e.g. 16.
If mac80211 already hold local->queue_stop_reason_lock, then we can wait
on that lock in both rt2x00queue_pause_queue() and
rt2x00queue_unpause_queue(). After drooping ->queue_stop_reason_lock
is possible that __ieee80211_wake_queue() will be performed before
__ieee80211_stop_queue(), hence we stop queue and newer wake up it
again.
Another race condition is possible when between rt2x00queue_threshold()
check and rt2x00queue_pause_queue() we will process all pending tx
buffers on different cpu. This might happen if for example interrupt
will be triggered on cpu performing rt2x00mac_tx().
To prevent race conditions serialize pause/unpause by queue->tx_lock.

commit ea4fc0d619 (ipv4: Don't use rt->rt_{src,dst} in ip_queue_xmit())
added a serious regression on synflood handling.
Simon Kirby discovered a successful connection was delayed by 20 seconds
before being responsive.
In my tests, I discovered that xmit frames were lost, and needed ~4
retransmits and a socket dst rebuild before being really sent.
In case of syncookie initiated connection, we use a different path to
initialize the socket dst, and inet->cork.fl.u.ip4 is left cleared.
As ip_queue_xmit() now depends on inet flow being setup, fix this by
copying the temp flowi4 we use in cookie_v4_check().

9a7aa12f39 introduced additional logic around setting the i_mutex
lockdep class for directory inodes. The idea was that some filesystems
may want their own special lockdep class for different directory
inodes and calling unlock_new_inode() should not clobber one of
those special classes.
I believe that the added conditional, around the *negated* return value
of lockdep_match_class(), caused directory inodes to be placed in the
wrong lockdep class.
inode_init_always() sets the i_mutex lockdep class with i_mutex_key for
all inodes. If the filesystem did not change the class during inode
initialization, then the conditional mentioned above was false and the
directory inode was incorrectly left in the non-directory lockdep class.
If the filesystem did set a special lockdep class, then the conditional
mentioned above was true and that class was clobbered with
i_mutex_dir_key.
This patch removes the negation from the conditional so that the i_mutex
lockdep class is properly set for directory inodes. Special classes are
preserved and directory inodes with unmodified classes are set with
i_mutex_dir_key.

Current code has put_ioctx() called asynchronously from aio_fput_routine();
that's done *after* we have killed the request that used to pin ioctx,
so there's nothing to stop io_destroy() waiting in wait_for_all_aios()
from progressing. As the result, we can end up with async call of
put_ioctx() being the last one and possibly happening during exit_mmap()
or elf_core_dump(), neither of which expects stray munmap() being done
to them...
We do need to prevent _freeing_ ioctx until aio_fput_routine() is done
with that, but that's all we care about - neither io_destroy() nor
exit_aio() will progress past wait_for_all_aios() until aio_fput_routine()
does really_put_req(), so the ioctx teardown won't be done until then
and we don't care about the contents of ioctx past that point.
Since actual freeing of these suckers is RCU-delayed, we don't need to
bump ioctx refcount when request goes into list for async removal.
All we need is rcu_read_lock held just over the ->ctx_lock-protected
area in aio_fput_routine().
