Patch "firewire: fw-sbp2: fix NULL pointer deref. in scsi_remove_device"
had the unintended effect that firewire-sbp2 could not be unloaded
anymore until all SBP-2 devices were unplugged.

We now fix the NULL pointer bug by reacquiring a reference to the sdev
instead of holding a reference to the sdev (and to the module) all the
time.

Eric Sandeen tracked an XFS on ARM corruption bug down to a function
under fs/xfs/ involving some get_unaligned() calls on u64 pointers.
As it turns out, calling ARM's get_unaligned() on a u64 pointer
pointing to the following byte sequence:

	80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87

would return ffffffff83828180 (LE mode.)  This turns out to be
because of implicit u8 -> int promotion in ARM's implementation of
various helpers for get_unaligned(), causing them to accidentally
return signed instead of unsigned values, which in turn caused the
subsequent casts to unsigned long long in __get_unaligned_8_[bl]e()
to sign-extend the lower words.

Fix by casting the return values of __get_unaligned_[24]_[bl]e()
to unsigned int.

This patch fixes a potentially invalid access to a per-CPU variable in
rcu_process_callbacks().

This per-CPU access needs to be done in such a way as to guarantee that
the code using it cannot move to some other CPU before all uses of the
value accessed have completed.  Even though this code is currently only
invoked from softirq context, which currrently cannot migrate to some
other CPU, life would be better if this code did not silently make such
an assumption.

The 2.6.25 ptrace_bts_config structure in asm-x86/ptrace-abi.h
is defined with u32 types:

   #include <asm/types.h>

   /* configuration/status structure used in PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG and
      PTRACE_BTS_STATUS commands.
   */
   struct ptrace_bts_config {
           /* requested or actual size of BTS buffer in bytes */
           u32 size;
           /* bitmask of below flags */
           u32 flags;

           /* actual size of bts_struct in bytes */
           u32 bts_size;
   };
   #endif

But u32 is only accessible in asm-x86/types.h if __KERNEL__,
leading to compile errors when ptrace.h is included from
user-space. The double-underscore versions that are exported
to user-space in asm-x86/types.h should be used instead.

avoid over-eager large page splitup.

When the target area needs to be split or is split already (ioremap)
then the current code enforces the split of large mappings in the alias
regions even if we could avoid it.

Use a separate variable processed in the cpa_data structure to carry
the number of pages which have been processed instead of reusing the
numpages variable. This keeps numpages intact and gives the alias code
a chance to keep large mappings intact.

I recently stumbled upon a problem in the support for huge pages. If a
program using huge pages does not explicitly unmap them, they remain
mapped (and therefore, are lost) after the program exits.

I observed that the free huge page count in /proc/meminfo decreased when
running my program, and it did not increase after the program exited.
After running the program a few times, no more huge pages could be
allocated.

The reason for this seems to be that the x86 pmd_bad and pud_bad
consider pmd/pud entries having the PSE bit set invalid. I think there
is nothing wrong with this bit being set, it just indicates that the
lowest level of translation has been reached. This bit has to be (and
is) checked after the basic validity of the entry has been checked, like
in this fragment from follow_page() in mm/memory.c:

  if (pmd_none(*pmd) || unlikely(pmd_bad(*pmd)))
          goto no_page_table;

  if (pmd_huge(*pmd)) {
          BUG_ON(flags & FOLL_GET);
          page = follow_huge_pmd(mm, address, pmd, flags & FOLL_WRITE);
          goto out;
  }

Note that this code currently doesn't work as intended if the pmd refers
to a huge page, the pmd_huge() check can not be reached if the page is
huge.

Extending pmd_bad() (and, for future 1GB page support, pud_bad()) to
allow for the PSE bit being set fixes this. For similar reasons,
allowing the NX bit being set is necessary, too. I have seen huge pages
having the NX bit set in their pmd entry, which would cause the same
problem.
