Relative hrtimers with a large timeout value might end up as negative
timer values, when the current time is added in hrtimer_start().

This in turn is causing the clockevents_set_next() function to set an
huge timeout and sleep for quite a long time when we have a clock
source which is capable of long sleeps like HPET. With PIT this almost
goes unnoticed as the maximum delta is ~27ms. The non-hrt/nohz code
sorts this out in the next timer interrupt, so we never noticed that
problem which has been there since the first day of hrtimers.

This bug became more apparent in 2.6.24 which activates HPET on more
hardware.

Creating PDEs with refcount 0 and "deleted" flag has problems (see below).
Switch to usual scheme:
* PDE is created with refcount 1
* every de_get does +1
* every de_put() and remove_proc_entry() do -1
* once refcount reaches 0, PDE is freed.

This elegantly fixes at least two following races (both observed) without
introducing new locks, without abusing old locks, without spreading
lock_kernel():

1) PDE leak

remove_proc_entry			de_put
-----------------			------
			[refcnt = 1]
if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
						if (de->deleted)
							/* also not taken! */
							free_proc_entry(de);
else
	de->deleted = 1;
		[refcount=0, deleted=1]

2) use after free

remove_proc_entry			de_put
-----------------			------
			[refcnt = 1]

					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
	free_proc_entry(de);
						/* boom! */
						if (de->deleted)
							free_proc_entry(de);

Also, remove broken usage of ->deleted from reiserfs: if sget() succeeds,
module is already pinned and remove_proc_entry() can't happen => nobody
can mark PDE deleted.

Dummy proc root in netns code is not marked with refcount 1. AFAICS, we
never get it, it's just for proper /proc/net removal. I double checked

Patch survives many hours of modprobe/rmmod/cat loops without new bugs
which can be attributed to refcounting.

Before we start committing a transaction, we call
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back
buffers.

If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some
buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction
because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some
assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :).

We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a
transaction in T_FINISHED state.  The locking there is subtle though (as
everywhere in JBD ;().  We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a
subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end
of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction
can get to T_FINISHED state.

Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary -
checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a
transaction must be already committed to be processed or from
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus
transaction cannot change state either.  Better be safe if something
changes in future...

register_sysctl_table() can return NULL sometimes, e.g.  when kmalloc()
returns NULL or when sysctl check fails.

I've also noticed, that many (most?) code in the kernel doesn't check for
the return value from register_sysctl_table() and later simply calls the
unregister_sysctl_table() with potentially NULL argument.

This is unlikely on a common kernel configuration, but in case we're
dealing with modules and/or fault-injection support, there's a slight
possibility of an OOPS.

Changing all the users to check for return code from the registering does
not look like a good solution - there are too many code doing this and
failure in sysctl tables registration is not a good reason to abort module
loading (in most of the cases).

So I think, that we can just have this check in unregister_sysctl_table
just to avoid accidental OOPS-es (actually, the unregister_sysctl_table()
did exactly this, before the start_unregistering() appeared).
