The test case at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/posixtest/posixtestsuite/conforman
ce/interfaces/clock_nanosleep/1-5.c fails if it runs as a 32bit process on
x86_86 machines.

The root cause is the sub 32bit process fails to restart the syscall after it
is interrupted by a signal.

The syscall number of sys_restart_syscall in table sys_call_table is
__NR_restart_syscall (219) while it's __NR_ia32_restart_syscall
(0) in ia32_sys_call_table. When regs->rax==(unsigned
long)-ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK, function do_signal doesn't distinguish if
the process is 64bit or 32bit, and always sets restart syscall number
as __NR_restart_syscall (219).

This patch removes the entwining of cpusets and hotplug code in the "No
more Mr.  Nice Guy" case of sched.c move_task_off_dead_cpu().

Since the hotplug code is holding a spinlock at this point, we cannot take
the cpuset semaphore, cpuset_sem, as would seem to be required either to
update the tasks cpuset, or to scan up the nested cpuset chain, looking for
the nearest cpuset ancestor that still has some CPUs that are online.  So
we just punt and blast the tasks cpus_allowed with all bits allowed.

This reverts these lines of code to what they were before the cpuset patch.
 And it updates the cpuset Doc file, to match.

The one known alternative to this that seems to work came from Dinakar
Guniguntala, and required the hotplug code to take the cpuset_sem semaphore
much earlier in its processing.  So far as we know, the increased locking
entanglement between cpusets and hot plug of this alternative approach is
not worth doing in this case.

The recent change to add a timeout to strbuf flushing had
a negative performance impact.  The udelay()'s are too long,
and they were done in the wrong order wrt. the register read
checks.  Fix both, and things are happy again.

On ppc32, the platform code can supply a "progress" function that is
used to show progress through the boot.  These functions are usually
in an init section and so can't be called after the init pages are
freed.  Now that the cpu bringup code can be called after the system
is booted (for hotplug cpu) we can get the situation where the
progress function can be called after boot.  The simple fix is to set
the progress function pointer to NULL when the init pages are freed,
and that is what this patch does (note that all callers already check
whether the function pointer is NULL before trying to call it).

As noted by Chris Wright, we need to do the full range of tests regardless
of whether MAP_FIXED is set or not, so re-organize get_unmapped_area()
slightly to do the sanity checks unconditionally.

In netlink_broadcast() we're sending shared skb's to netlink listeners
when possible (saves some copying). This is OK, since we hold the only
other reference to the skb.

However, this implies that we must drop our reference on the skb, before
allowing a receiving socket to disappear. Otherwise, the socket buffer
accounting is disrupted.

This bug causes:

assertion (!atomic_read(&sk->sk_rmem_alloc)) failed at net/netlink/af_netlink.c (122)

What's happening is that:

1) The skb is sent to socket 1.
2) Someone does a recvmsg on socket 1 and drops the ref on the skb.
   Note that the rmalloc is not returned at this point since the
   skb is still referenced.
3) The same skb is now sent to socket 2.

This version of the fix resurrects the skb_orphan call that was moved
out, last time we had 'shared-skb troubles'. It is practically a no-op
in the common case, but still prevents the possible race with recvmsg.

Having frag_list members which holds wmem of an sk leads to nightmares
with partially cloned frag skb's.  The reason is that once you unleash
a skb with a frag_list that has individual sk ownerships into the stack
you can never undo those ownerships safely as they may have been cloned
by things like netfilter.  Since we have to undo them in order to make
skb_linearize happy this approach leads to a dead-end.

So let's go the other way and make this an invariant:

	For any skb on a frag_list, skb->sk must be NULL.

That is, the socket ownership always belongs to the head skb.
It turns out that the implementation is actually pretty simple.

The above invariant is actually violated in the following patch
for a short duration inside ip_fragment.  This is OK because the
offending frag_list member is either destroyed at the end of the
slow path without being sent anywhere, or it is detached from
the frag_list before being sent.
