       "This is a set of three bug fixes that gets parisc running again on
        systems with PA1.1 processors.
      
        Two fix regressions introduced in 2.6.39 and one fixes a prefetch bug
        that only affects PA7300LC processors.  We also have another pending
        fix to do with the sectional arrangement of vmlinux.lds, but there's a
        query on it during testing on one particular system type, so I'll hold
        off sending it in for now."

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull x86 linker bug workarounds from Peter Anvin.
      
      GNU ld-2.22.52.0.[12] (*) has an unfortunate bug where it incorrectly
      turns certain relocation entries absolute.  Section-relative symbols
      that are part of otherwise empty sections are silently changed them to
      absolute.  We rely on section-relative symbols staying section-relative,
      and actually have several sections in the linker script solely for this
      purpose.
      
      See for example
      
         http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14052
      
      We could just black-list the buggy linker, but it appears that it got
      shipped in at least F17, and possibly other distros too, so it's sadly
      not some rare unusual case.
      
      This backports the workaround from the x86/trampoline branch, and as
      Peter says: "This is not a minimal fix, not at all, but it is a tested
      code base."
      
      * 'x86/ld-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:

      memcg,thp: fix res_counter:96 regression · 62ade86a
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Occasionally, testing memcg's move_charge_at_immigrate on rc7 shows
      a flurry of hundreds of warnings at kernel/res_counter.c:96, where
      res_counter_uncharge_locked() does WARN_ON(counter->usage < val).
      
      The first trace of each flurry implicates __mem_cgroup_cancel_charge()
      of mc.precharge, and an audit of mc.precharge handling points to
      mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range()'s THP handling in commit 12724850
      ("memcg: avoid THP split in task migration").
      
      Checking !mc.precharge is good everywhere else, when a single page is to
      be charged; but here the "mc.precharge -= HPAGE_PMD_NR" likely to
      follow, is liable to result in underflow (a lot can change since the
      precharge was estimated).
      
      Simply check against HPAGE_PMD_NR: there's probably a better
      alternative, trying precharge for more, splitting if unsuccessful; but
      this one-liner is safer for now - no kernel/res_counter.c:96 warnings
      seen in 26 hours.

      frv: delete incorrect task prototypes causing compile fail · 93c2d656
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      Commit 41101809 ("fork: Provide weak arch_release_[task_struct|
      thread_info] functions") in -tip highlights a problem in the frv arch,
      where it has needles prototypes for alloc_task_struct_node and
      free_task_struct.  This now shows up as:
      
        kernel/fork.c:120:66: error: static declaration of 'alloc_task_struct_node' follows non-static declaration
        kernel/fork.c:127:51: error: static declaration of 'free_task_struct' follows non-static declaration
      
      since that commit turned them into real functions.  Since arch/frv does
      does not define define __HAVE_ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ALLOCATOR (i.e.  it just
      uses the generic ones) it shouldn't list these at all.
