I ran into the same issue today, but when listing a directory with
invalid/corrupt entries:

udf_lookup
        udf_iget
                get_new_inode_fast
                        alloc_inode
                                udf_alloc_inode
                __udf_read_inode
                        fails for any reason
                iput (on error)
                        ...

The following patch to udf_alloc_inode() should take care of both (and
other similar) cases, but I've only tested it with udf_lookup().

The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged
packets because they know that the packet has not been cloned yet
(since the packet hasn't been given to anything else in the system).

This broke because skb_trim no longer allows paged packets to be
trimmed.  Paged packets must be given to one of the pskb_trim functions
instead.

This patch adds a new pskb_trim_unique function to cover the IPv4/IPv6
datagram output path scenario and replaces the corresponding skb_trim
calls with it.

Fix kernel panic on various SMP machines. The culprit is a null
ub->skb in ulog_send(). If ulog_timer() has already been scheduled on
one CPU and is spinning on the lock, and ipt_ulog_packet() flushes the
queue on another CPU by calling ulog_send() right before it exits,
there will be no skbuff when ulog_timer() acquires the lock and calls
ulog_send(). Cancelling the timer in ulog_send() doesn't help because
it has already been scheduled and is running on the first CPU.

Similar problem exists in ebt_ulog.c and nfnetlink_log.c.

Fix from Aji_Srinivas@emc.com, STP packets are incorrectly received on
all LLC datagram sockets, whichever interface they are bound to.  The
llc_sap datagram receive logic sends packets with a unicast
destination MAC to one socket bound to that SAP and MAC, and multicast
packets to all sockets bound to that SAP. STP packets are multicast,
and we do need to know on which interface they were received.

If dst->obsolete is -1, this is a signal from the
bundle creator that we want the XFRM dst and the
dsts that it references to be validated on every
use.

I misunderstood this intention when I changed
xfrm_dst_check() to always return NULL.

Now, when we purge a dst entry, by running dst_free()
on it.  This will set the dst->obsolete to a positive
integer, and we want to return NULL in that case so
that the socket does a relookup for the route.

Thus, if dst->obsolete<0, let stale_bundle() validate
the state, else always return NULL.

In general, we need to do things more intelligently
here because we flush too much state during rule
changes.  Herbert Xu has some ideas wherein the key
manager gives us some help in this area.  We can also
use smarter state management algorithms inside of
the kernel as well.

We recently fixed an out-of-space deadlock in XFS, and part of that fix
involved the addition of the XFS_ALLOC_FLAG_FREEING flag to some of the
space allocator calls to indicate they're freeing space, not allocating
it. There was a missed xfs_alloc_fix_freelist condition test that did not
correctly test "flags". The same test would also test an uninitialised
structure field (args->userdata) and depending on its value either would
or would not return early with a critical buffer pointer set to NULL.

This fixes that up, adds asserts to several places to catch future botches
of this nature, and skips sections of xfs_alloc_fix_freelist that are
irrelevent for the space-freeing case.

Patch from Dmitry Mishin <dim@openvz.org>:

Replace add_timer() by mod_timer() in dst_run_gc

del_timer(&dst_gc_timer)         fail to get lock
       ....                         mod_timer() <--- puts 
                                                 timer back
                                                 to the list
add_timer(&dst_gc_timer) <--- BUG because timer is in list already.

Found during OpenVZ internal testing.

At first we thought that it is OpenVZ specific as we
added dst_run_gc(0) call in dst_dev_event(),
but as Alexey pointed to me it is possible to trigger
this condition in mainstream kernel.

F.e. timer has fired on CPU2, but the handler was preeempted
by an irq before dst_lock is tried.
Meanwhile, someone on CPU1 adds an entry to gc list and
starts the timer.
If CPU2 was preempted long enough, this timer can expire
simultaneously with resuming timer handler on CPU1, arriving
exactly to the situation described.

SCSI EH locks door if sdev->locked is set.  Sometimes door lock
command fails continuously (e.g. when medium is not present) and as
libata uses EH to acquire sense data, this easily creates a loop where
a failed lock door invokes EH and EH issues lock door on completion.

loop.  This problem has been spotted and diagnosed by Unicorn Chang
