When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its
instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some
processes might be preempted on the buffer.  The freeze_processes() and
thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer.
There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag.  If
those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the
buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing.

However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time.  So, this
patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot.  It also
introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency.

The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released
immediately.  But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are
marked as garbages.  collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release
"dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if
there are no unused slots.

Currently we allocate 64k space on the user stack and use it the msgbuf for
sys_{msgrcv,msgsnd} for compat and the results are later copied in user [
by copy_in_user].  This patch introduces helper routines for
sys_{msgrcv,msgsnd} as below:

do_msgsnd() : Accepts the mtype and user space ptr to the buffer along with
the msqid and msgflg.

do_msgrcv() : Accepts a kernel space ptr to mtype and a userspace ptr to
the buffer.  The mtype has to be copied back the user space msgbuf by the
caller.

These changes avoid the need to allocate the msgsize on the userspace (
thus removing the size limt ) and the overhead of an extra copy_in_user().

A driver for the PCEngines WRAP boards (http://www.pcengines.ch), which are
very similar to the Soekris net4801 (same NS SC1100 geode reference
design).

The LEDs on the WRAP are on different GPIO lines and I have modified and
copied the net48xx error led support for this.  It also includes support
for an "extra" led (in addition to error).  The three LEDs on the WRAP are
at GPIO lines 2,3,18 (WRAP LEDs from left to right).  This driver gives
access to the second and third LEDs by twiddling GPIO lines 3 & 18.

Because these boards are so similar to the net48xx, I basically sed-ed that
driver to form the basis for leds-wrap.c.  The only changes from
leds-net48xx.c are:

 - #define WRAP_EXTRA_LED_GPIO

 - name changes

 - duplicate relevant sections to provide support for the "extra" led

 - reverse the various *_led_set values.  The WRAP is "backwards" from the
   net48xx, and these needed to be updated for that.

Fix two things.  Firstly the unit is "Hz" not "HZ".  Secondly it is useful
to have 300Hz support when doing multimedia work.  250 is fine for us in
Europe but the US frame rate is 30fps (29.99 blah for pedants).  300 gives
us a tick divisible by both 25 and 30, and for interlace work 50 and 60.
It's also giving similar performance to 250Hz.

I'd argue we should remove 250 and add 300, but that might be excess
disruption for now.

Steve Grubb's fzfuzzer tool (http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/
fsfuzzer-0.6.tar.gz) generates corrupt Cramfs filesystems which cause
Cramfs to kernel oops in cramfs_uncompress_block().  The cause of the oops
is an unchecked corrupted block length field read by cramfs_readpage().

This patch adds a sanity check to cramfs_readpage() which checks that the
block length field is sensible.  The (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1) size check is
intentional, even though the uncompressed data is not going to be larger
than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, gzip sometimes generates compressed data larger than
the original source data.  Mkcramfs checks that the compressed size is
always less than or equal to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << 1.  Of course Cramfs could
use the original uncompressed data in this case, but it doesn't.

Clean up several code points in which the return code from misc_register is
not handled properly.

Several modules failed to deregister various hooks when misc_register fails,
and this patch cleans them up.  Also there are a few modules that legitimately
don't care about the failure status of misc register.  These drivers however
unilaterally call misc_deregister on module unload.

Since misc_register doesn't initialize the list_head in the init_routine if it
fails, the deregister operation is at risk for oopsing when list_del is
called.  The initial solution was to manually init the list in the miscdev
structure in each of those modules, but the consensus in this thread was to
consolodate and do that universally inside misc_register.
