ps3: Introduce CONFIG_PS3_ADVANCED, as suggested by Roman Zippel, and use it to control questions about PS3 subsystems that may not be obvious for the casual user.

There are race issues around ext[34] xattr block release code. ext[34]_xattr_release_block() checks the reference count of xattr block (h_refcount) and frees that xattr block if it is the last one reference it. Unlike ext2, the check of this counter is unprotected by any lock. ext[34]_xattr_release_block() will free the mb_cache entry before freeing that xattr block. There is a small window between the check for the re h_refcount ==1 and the call to mb_cache_entry_free(). During this small window another inode might find this xattr block from the mbcache and reuse it, racing a refcount updates. The xattr block will later be freed by the first inode without notice other inode is still use it. Later if that block is reallocated as a datablock for other file, then more serious problem might happen. We need put a lock around places checking the refount as well to avoid racing issue. Another place need this kind of protection is in ext3_xattr_block_set(), where it will modify the xattr block content in- the-fly if the refcount is 1 (means it's the only inode reference it). This will also fix another issue: the xattr block may not get freed at all if no lock is to protect the refcount check at the release time. It is possible that the last two inodes could release the shared xattr block at the same time. But both of them think they are not the last one so only decreased the h_refcount without freeing xattr block at all. We need to call lock_buffer() after ext3_journal_get_write_access() to avoid deadlock (because the later will call lock_buffer()/unlock_buffer () as well).

Fix the fact that pte_mkread set _PAGE_RW instead of _PAGE_USER (the logic is copied from i386 in most place, so it is really as bad as you're thinking). Thus currently page tables are more permissive than they should. Such a change may trigger other latent bugs, so be careful with this.

This fixes a problem seen by a number of people running UML on newer host kernels. init would hang with an infinite segfault loop. It turns out that the host kernel was providing a AT_SYSINFO_EHDR of 0xffffe000, which faked UML into believing that the host VDSO page could be reused. However, AT_SYSINFO pointed into the middle of the address space, and was unmapped as a result. Because UML was providing AT_SYSINFO_EHDR and AT_SYSINFO to its own processes, these would branch to nowhere when trying to use the VDSO. The fix is to also check the location of AT_SYSINFO when deciding whether to use the host's VDSO.

throttle_vm_writeout() is designed to wait for the dirty levels to subside. But if the caller holds IO or FS locks, we might be holding up that writeout.

Add some locking to host_ldt_entries to prevent racing when reading LDT information from the host. The locking is somewhat more careful than my previous attempt. Now, only the check of host_ldt_entries is locked. The lock is dropped immediately afterwards, and if the LDT needs initializing, that (and the memory allocations needed) proceed outside the lock. Also fixed some style violations.

i.e. one or more drives can be added and the array will re-stripe while on-line. Most of the interesting work was already done for raid5. This just extends it to raid6. mdadm newer than 2.6 is needed for complete safety, however any version of mdadm which support raid5 reshape will do a good enough job in almost all cases (an 'echo repair > /sys/block/mdX/md/sync_action' is recommended after a reshape that was aborted and had to be restarted with an such a version of mdadm).

An error always aborts any resync/recovery/reshape on the understanding that it will immediately be restarted if that still makes sense. However a reshape currently doesn't get restarted. With this patch it does. To avoid restarting when it is not possible to do work, we call into the personality to check that a reshape is ok, and strengthen raid5_check_reshape to fail if there are too many failed devices. We also break some code out into a separate function: remove_and_add_spares as the indent level for that code was getting crazy.

md tries to warn the user if they e.g. create a raid1 using two partitions of the same device, as this does not provide true redundancy. However it also warns if a raid0 is created like this, and there is nothing wrong with that.

There are two errors that can lead to recovery problems with raid10 when used in 'far' more (not the default). Due to a '>' instead of '>=' the wrong block is located which would result in garbage being written to some random location, quite possible outside the range of the device, causing the newly reconstructed device to fail. The device size calculation had some rounding errors (it didn't round when it should) and so recovery would go a few blocks too far which would again cause a write to a random block address and probably a device error. The code for working with device sizes was fairly confused and spread out, so this has been tided up a bit.

When removing set_native_irq I missed the fact that it was called in a couple of places that were compiled even when SMP support is disabled. And since the irq_desc[].affinity field only exists in SMP things broke. Thanks to Simon Arlott <simon@arlott.org> for spotting this. There are a couple of ways to fix this but the simplest one is to just remove the assignments. The affinity field is only used to display a value to the user, and nothing on either i386 or x86_64 reads it or depends on it being any particlua value, so skipping the assignment is safe. The assignment that is being removed is just for the initial affinity value before the user explicitly sets it. The irq_desc array initializes this field to CPU_MASK_ALL so the field is initialized to a reasonable value in the SMP case without being set. Signed-off-by: NEric W.
