Moving the path activation to workqueue along with scsi_dh patches introduced a race. It is due to the fact that the current_pgpath (in the multipath data structure) can be modified if changes happen in any of the paths leading to the lun. If the changes lead to current_pgpath being set to NULL, then it leads to the invalid access which results in the panic below. This patch fixes that by storing the pgpath to activate in the multipath data structure and properly protecting it. Note that if activate_path is called twice in succession with different pgpath, with the second one being called before the first one is done, then activate path will be called twice for the second pgpath, which is fine.

I tracked down the shutdown regression to CPUs not dying when being shut down during power-off. This turns out to be due to the system_state being SYSTEM_POWER_OFF, which this code doesn't take as a valid state for shutting off CPUs in. This has never made sense to me, but when I added hotplug code to implement hibernate I only "made it work" and did not question the need to check the system_state. Thomas Gleixner helped me dig, but the only thing we found is that it was added with the original commit that added CPU hotplug support.

The PCI bridge on the Holly board is incorrectly represented in the device tree. The current device tree node for the PCI bridge sits under the tsi-bridge node. That's not obviously wrong, but the PCI bridge translates some PCI spaces into CPU address ranges which were not translated by the "ranges" property in tsi-bridge node. We used to get away with this problem because the PCI bridge discovery code was also buggy, assuming incorrectly that PCI host bridge nodes were always directly under the root bus and treating the translated addresses as raw CPU addresses, rather than parent bus addresses. This has since been fixed, thus breaking Holly. This could be fixed by adding extra translations to the tsi-bridge node, but this patch instead moves the Holly PCI bridge out of the tsi-bridge node to the root bus. This makes the tsi-bridge node represent only the built-in IO devices in the bridge, with a more-or-less contiguous address range. This is the same convention used on Freescale SoC chips, where the "soc" node represents only the IMMR region, and the PCI and other bus bridges are separate nodes under the root bus.

There's a race between mm->owner assignment and swapoff, more easily seen when task slab poisoning is turned on. The condition occurs when try_to_unuse() runs in parallel with an exiting task. A similar race can occur with callers of get_task_mm(), such as /proc/<pid>/<mmstats> or ptrace or page migration. CPU0 CPU1 try_to_unuse looks at mm = task0->mm increments mm->mm_users task 0 exits mm->owner needs to be updated, but no new owner is found (mm_users > 1, but no other task has task->mm = task0->mm) mm_update_next_owner() leaves mmput(mm) decrements mm->mm_users task0 freed dereferencing mm->owner fails The fix is to notify the subsystem via mm_owner_changed callback(), if no new owner is found, by specifying the new task as NULL. Jiri Slaby: mm->owner was set to NULL prior to calling cgroup_mm_owner_callbacks(), but must be set after that, so as not to pass NULL as old owner causing oops. Daisuke Nishimura: mm_update_next_owner() may set mm->owner to NULL, but mem_cgroup_from_task() and its callers need to take account of this situation to avoid oops. Hugh Dickins: Lockdep warning and hang below exec_mmap() when testing these patches. exit_mm() up_reads mmap_sem before calling mm_update_next_owner(), so exec_mmap() now needs to do the same. And with that repositioning, there's now no point in mm_need_new_owner() allowing for NULL mm.

Impact: per CPU hrtimers can be migrated from a dead CPU The hrtimer code has no knowledge about per CPU timers, but we need to prevent the migration of such timers and warn when such a timer is active at migration time. Explicitely mark the timers as per CPU and use a more understandable mode descriptor for the interrupts safe unlocked callback mode, which is used by hrtimer_sleeper and the scheduler code.

Impact: during migration active hrtimers can be seen as inactive The migration code removes the hrtimers from the queues of the dead CPU and sets the state temporary to INACTIVE.

Impact: Stale timers after a CPU went offline. commit 37bb6cb4 hrtimer: unlock hrtimer_wakeup changed the hrtimer sleeper callback mode to CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ due to locking problems. A result of this change is that when enqueue is called for an already expired hrtimer the callback function is not longer called directly from the enqueue code. The normal callers have been fixed in the code, but the migration code which moves hrtimers from a dead CPU to a live CPU was not made aware of this. This can be fixed by checking the timer state after the call to enqueue in the migration code. Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

The VFS interface for the 'd_compare()' is a bit special (read: 'odd'), because it really just essentially replaces a memcmp(). The filesystem is supposed to just compare the two names with whatever case-independent or other function. And when I say 'is supposed to', I obviously mean that 'procfs does odd things, and actually looks at the dentry that we don't even pass down, rather than just the name'. Which results in problems, because we actually call d_compare before we have even verified that the dentry is still hashed at all. And that causes a problm since the inode that procfs looks at may have been free'd and the d_inode pointer is NULL. procfs just assumes that all dentries are positive, since procfs itself never generates a negative one. But memory pressure will still result in the dentry getting torn down, and as it is removed by RCU, it still remains visible on some lists - and to d_compare. If the filesystem just did a name comparison, we wouldn't care. And we could just fix procfs to know about negative dentries too. But rather than have the low-level filesystems know about internal VFS details, just move the check for a unhashed dentry up a bit, so that we will only call d_compare on dentries that are still active. The actual oops this caused didn't look like a NULL pointer dereference because procfs did a 'container_of(inode, struct proc_inode, vfs_inode)' to get at its internal proc_inode information from the inode pointer, and accessed a field below the inode. So the oops would look something like BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffffffffff0 IP: [<ffffffff802bc6c6>] proc_sys_compare+0x36/0x50 and was seen on both x86-64 (Alexey Dobriyan and Hugh Dickins) and ppc64 (Hugh Dickins).

Update the CS4270 ALSA device driver to use the new-style I2C interface. Starting with the 2.6.27 PowerPC kernel, I2C devices that have entries in the device trees can no longer be probed by old-style I2C drivers. The device tree for Freescale MPC8610 HPCD has included an entry for the CS4270 since 2.6.25, but that entry was previously ignored by the PowerPC I2C subsystem. Since that's no longer the case, the best solution is to update the CS4270 driver to a new-style interface, rather than try to revert the behavior of new PowerPC I2C subsystem.
