Commit c060f943 ("mm: use aligned zone start for pfn_to_bitidx calculation") fixed out calculation of the index into the pageblock bitmap when a !SPARSEMEM zome was not aligned to pageblock_nr_pages. However, the _allocation_ of that bitmap had never taken this alignment requirement into accout, so depending on the exact size and alignment of the zone, the use of that index could then access past the allocation, resulting in some very subtle memory corruption. This was reported (and bisected) by Ingo Molnar: one of his random config builds would hang with certain very specific kernel command line options. In the meantime, commit c060f943 has been marked for stable, so this fix needs to be back-ported to the stable kernels that backported the commit to use the right alignment.

As reported by Klaus Schmidinger: "In VDR I use an ioctl() call with FE_READ_UNCORRECTED_BLOCKS on a device (using stb0899). After this call I check 'errno' for EOPNOTSUPP to determine whether this device supports this call. This used to work just fine, until a few months ago I noticed that my devices using stb0899 didn't display their signal quality in VDR's OSD any more. After further investigation I found that ioctl(FE_READ_UNCORRECTED_BLOCKS) no longer returns EOPNOTSUPP, but rather ENOTTY. And since I stop getting the signal quality in case any unknown errno value appears, this broke my signal quality query function." While the changes reflect what is there at: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1235728 it does cause regression on userspace. So, revert it to stop the damage.

" Jan took a look at the preliminary patch and came up a fix that solves this problem: "This code gets called after all registers other than those handled by IRET got already restored, hence a null selector in %ds or a non-null one that got loaded from a code or read-only data descriptor would cause a kernel mode fault (with the potential of crashing the kernel as a whole, if panic_on_oops is set)." The way to fix this is to realize that the we can only relay on the registers that IRET restores. The two that are guaranteed are the %cs and %ss as they are always fixed GDT selectors. Also they are inaccessible from user mode - so they cannot be altered. This is the approach taken in this patch. Another alternative option suggested by Jan would be to relay on the subtle realization that using the %ebp or %esp relative references uses the %ss segment. In which case we could switch from using %eax to %ebp and would not need the %ss over-rides. That would also require one extra instruction to compensate for the one place where the register is used as scaled index. However Andrew pointed out that is too subtle and if further work was to be done in this code-path it could escape folks attention and lead to accidents.

Devices are added to pci_pme_list when drivers use pci_enable_wake() or pci_wake_from_d3(), but they aren't removed from the list unless the driver explicitly disables wakeup. Many drivers never disable wakeup, so their devices remain on the list even after they are removed, e.g., via hotplug. A subsequent PME poll will oops when it tries to touch the device. This patch disables PME# on a device before removing it, which removes the device from pci_pme_list. This is safe even if the device never had PME# enabled. This oops can be triggered by unplugging a Thunderbolt ethernet adapter on a Macbook Pro, as reported by Daniel below.

We walk through the bind address list and try to get the best source address for a given destination. However, currently, we take the 'continue' path of the loop when an entry is invalid (!laddr->valid) *and* the entry state does not equal SCTP_ADDR_SRC (laddr->state != SCTP_ADDR_SRC). Thus, still, invalid entries with SCTP_ADDR_SRC might not 'continue' as well as valid entries with SCTP_ADDR_{NEW, SRC, DEL}, with a possible false baddr and matchlen as a result, causing in worst case dst route to be false or possibly NULL. This test should actually be a '||' instead of '&&'. But lets fix it and make this a bit easier to read by having the condition the same way as similarly done in sctp_v4_get_dst.

A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads /proc/kcore: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370 [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0 [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130 [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0 [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page. The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be walked resulting in the oops above. This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check. Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now they are running the backup program without accessing /proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it makes sense.

Pull s390 regression fix from Martin Schwidefsky: "The recent fix for the s390 sched_clock() function uncovered yet another bug in s390_next_ktime which causes an endless loop in KVM. This regression should be fixed before v3.8. I keep the fingers crossed that this is the last one for v3.8." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux: s390/timer: avoid overflow when programming clock comparator

Pull m68knommu fix from Greg Ungerer: "This contains a single critical fix for the non-MMU m68k platforms. The change of the kernel exec code path has revealed a problem in the start thread code that causes crashing on boot. This is the fix for it." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gerg/m68knommu: m68knommu: fix trap on execing /bin/init

in htb_change_class() cl->buffer and cl->buffer are stored in ns. So in dump, convert them back to psched ticks.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson: "We had a number of fixes queued up, but taking a strict pass-through and weeding out any that either have been broken for a while, or are for platforms that need out-of-tree code to be useful anyway, or other fixes for problems that few users are likely to see in real life, only this short branch of patches remains. The three patches here are to make SMP boot work on the Calxeda platforms again. Some of the rework for cpuids on 3.8 broke it (and it was discovered late, unfortunately)." * tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: ARM: highbank: mask cluster id from cpu_logical_map ARM: scu: mask cluster id from cpu_logical_map ARM: scu: add empty scu_enable for !CONFIG_SMP

The total number of low memory pages is determined as totalram_pages - totalhigh_pages, so without this patch all CMA pageblocks placed in highmem were accounted to low memory.

The designed workflow for the caches in kmemcg is: register it with memcg_register_cache() if kmemcg is already available or later on when a new kmemcg appears at memcg_update_cache_sizes() which will handle all caches in the system. The caches created at boot time will be handled by the later, and the memcg-caches as well as any system caches that are registered later on by the former. There is a bug, however, in memcg_register_cache: we correctly set up the array size, but do not mark the cache as a root cache. This means that allocations for any cache appearing late in the game will see memcg->memcg_params->is_root_cache == false, and in particular, trigger VM_BUG_ON(!cachep->memcg_params->is_root_cache) in __memcg_kmem_cache_get. The obvious fix is to include the missing assignment.
