Changing the internal representations of sizes of raid devices
from 1K blocks to sector counts (512B units) is desirable because
it allows to get rid of many divisions/multiplications and unnecessary
casts that are present in the current code.

This patch is a first step in this direction. It replaces the old
1K-based "size" argument of update_size() by "num_sectors" and
fixes up its two callers.

do_md_stop check the number of active users before allowing the array
to be stopped.
Two problems:
  1/ it assumes the request is coming through an open file descriptor
     (via ioctl) so it allows for that.  This is not always the case.
  2/ it doesn't do the check it the array hasn't been activated.
     This is not good for cases when we use an inactive array to hold
     some devices in a container.

The current code copies a signed int from user space, converts it to
unsigned and passes the unsigned value to find_rdev_nr() which expects
a signed value. Simply pass the signed value from user space directly.

  ...

The scenario goes like this. App stops reading from tun/tap.
TX queue gets full and driver does netif_stop_queue().
App closes fd and TX queue gets flushed as part of the cleanup.
Next time the app opens tun/tap and starts reading from it but
the xoff state is not cleared. We're stuck.
Normally xoff state is cleared when netdev is brought up. But
in the case of persistent devices this happens only during
initial setup.

The fix is trivial. If device is already up when an app opens
it we clear xoff state and that gets things moving again.

Now fn_trie_lookup() doesn't appear to care about plen, so we can revert

	DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0068

and analyzed it:

  "The register %ecx looks innocent but is very important here. The disassembly:

       mov    %edx,%ecx
       shr    $0x2,%ecx
       rep stos %eax,%es:(%edi) <-- the fault

   So %ecx has been loaded from %edx... which is 0x6b6b6b6b/POISON_FREE.
   (0x6b6b6b6b >> 2 == 0x1adadada.)

   %ecx is the counter for the memset, from here:

       memset(object, 0, c->objsize);

  i.e. %ecx was loaded from c->objsize, so "c" must have been freed.
  Where did "c" come from? Uh-oh...

       c = get_cpu_slab(s, smp_processor_id());

  This looks like it has very much to do with CPU hotplug/unplug. Is
  there a race between SLUB/hotplug since the CPU slab is used after it
  has been freed?"

Good analysis.

Yeah, it's possible that a caller of kmem_cache_alloc() -> slab_alloc()
can be migrated on another CPU right after local_irq_restore() and
before memset().  The inital cpu can become offline in the mean time (or
a migration is a consequence of the CPU going offline) so its
'kmem_cache_cpu' structure gets freed ( slab_cpuup_callback).

At some point of time the caller continues on another CPU having an
obsolete pointer...

Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.

Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup.  Checking through
our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

PREEMPT_RCU without HOTPLUG_CPU is broken.  The rcu_online_cpu is called
to initially populate rcu_cpu_online_map with all online CPUs when the
hotplug event handler is installed, and also to populate the map with
CPUs as they come online.  The former case is meant to happen with and
without HOTPLUG_CPU, but without HOTPLUG_CPU, the rcu_offline_cpu
function is no-oped -- while it still gets called, it does not set the
rcu CPU map.

With a blank RCU CPU map, grace periods get to tick by completely
oblivious to active RCU read side critical sections.  This results in
free-before-grace bugs.

Fix is obvious once the problem is known. (Also, change __devinit to
__cpuinit so the function gets thrown away on !HOTPLUG_CPU kernels).

The stack-glue merge changed the way we use flags in dlmglue in that we now

I think we may have a race between try_to_wake_up() and
migrate_live_tasks() -> move_task_off_dead_cpu() when the later one
may end up looping endlessly.

Interrupts are enabled on other CPUs when migration_call(CPU_DEAD, ...) is
called so we may get a race between try_to_wake_up() and
migrate_live_tasks() -> move_task_off_dead_cpu(). The former one may push
a task out of a dead CPU causing the later one to loop endlessly.

When a conntrack entry is destroyed in process context and destruction
is interrupted by packet processing and the packet is an attempt to
reopen a closed connection, TCP conntrack tries to kill the old entry
itself and returns NF_REPEAT to pass the packet through the hook
again. This may lead to an endless loop: TCP conntrack repeatedly
finds the old entry, but can not kill it itself since destruction
is already in progress, but destruction in process context can not
complete since TCP conntrack is keeping the CPU busy.

Drop the packet in TCP conntrack if we can't kill the connection
ourselves to avoid this.
