  powerpc/mm: Fix pgtable cache cleanup with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
  commit d28513bc

subpage_protection() was changed to to take an mm rather a pgdir but it
didn't change calling site in hashpage_preload().  The change wasn't
noticed at compile time since hashpage_preload() used a void* as the

Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Arnd Bergmann did an automated scripting run to find left-over instances
of <linux/smp_lock.h>, and had made it trigger it on the normal BKL use
of lock_kernel and unlock_lernel (and apparently release_kernel_lock and
reacquire_kernel_lock too, used by the scheduler).

That resulted in commit 451a3c24 ("BKL: remove extraneous #include
<smp_lock.h>").

However, hardirq.h was the only remaining user of the old
'kernel_locked()' interface, and Arnd's script hadn't checked for that.
So depending on your configuration and what header files had been
included, you would get errors like "implicit declaration of function
'kernel_locked'" during the build.

The right fix is not to just re-instate the smp_lock.h include - it is
to just remove 'kernel_locked()' entirely, since the only use was this
one special low-level detail.  Just make hardirq.h do it directly.

In fact this simplifies and clarifies the code, because some trivial
analysis makes it clear that hardirq.h only ever used _one_ of the two
definitions of kernel_locked(), so we can remove the other one entirely.

Making /proc/kallsyms readable only for root by default makes it
slightly harder for attackers to write generic kernel exploits by
removing one source of knowledge where things are in the kernel.

This is the second submit, discussion happened on this on first submit
and mostly concerned that this is just one hole of the sieve ...  but
one of the bigger ones.

Changing the permissions of at least System.map and vmlinux is also
required to fix the same set, but a packaging issue.

Target of this starter patch and follow ups is removing any kind of
kernel space address information leak from the kernel.

[ Side note: the default of root-only reading is the "safe" value, and
  it's easy enough to then override at any time after boot.  The /proc
  filesystem allows root to change the permissions with a regular
  chmod, so you can "revert" this at run-time by simply doing

    chmod og+r /proc/kallsyms

  as root if you really want regular users to see the kernel symbols.
  It does help some tools like "perf" figure them out without any
  setup, so it may well make sense in some situations.  - Linus ]

Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation.  No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch.  All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
	struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
	void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done.

Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change.  Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

I just loaded 2.6.37-rc2 on my machines, and I noticed that X no longer starts.
Running an strace of the X server shows that it's doing this:

open("/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:07:00.0/resource0", O_RDWR) = 10
mmap(NULL, 16777216, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 10, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

This code seems to be asking for a shared read/write mapping of 16MB worth of
BAR0 starting at file offset 0, and letting the kernel assign a starting
address.  Unfortunately, this -EINVAL causes X not to start.  Looking into
dmesg, there's a complaint like so:

process "Xorg" tried to map 0x01000000 bytes at page 0x00000000 on 0000:07:00.0 BAR 0 (start 0x        96000000, size 0x         1000000)

...with the following code in pci_mmap_fits:

	pci_start = (mmap_api == PCI_MMAP_SYSFS) ?
		pci_resource_start(pdev, resno) >> PAGE_SHIFT : 0;
        if (start >= pci_start && start < pci_start + size &&
                        start + nr <= pci_start + size)

It looks like the logic here is set up such that when the mmap call comes via
sysfs, the check in pci_mmap_fits wants vma->vm_pgoff to be between the
resource's start and end address, and the end of the vma to be no farther than
the end.  However, the sysfs PCI resource files always start at offset zero,
which means that this test always fails for programs that mmap the sysfs files.
Given the comment in the original commit
3b519e4e, I _think_ the old procfs files
require that the file offset be equal to the resource's base address when
mmapping.

I think what we want here is for pci_start to be 0 when mmap_api ==
PCI_MMAP_PROCFS.  The following patch makes that change, after which the Matrox
and Mach64 X drivers work again.
