Piss-poor sysctl registration API strikes again, film at 11... What we really need is _pathname_ required to be present in already registered table, so that kernel could warn about bad order. That's the next target for sysctl stuff (and generally saner and more explicit order of initialization of ipv[46] internals wouldn't hurt either). For the time being, here are full fixups required by ..._rotable() stuff; we make per-net sysctl sets descendents of "ro" one and make sure that sufficient skeleton is there before we start registering per-net sysctls.

The last_sector_bug flag was added to work around a bug in certain usb cardreaders, where they would crash if a multiple sector read included the last sector. The original implementation avoids this by e.g. splitting an 8 sector read which includes the last sector into a 7 sector read, and a single sector read for the last sector. The flag is enabled for all USB devices. This revealed a second bug in other usb cardreaders, which crash when they get a multiple sector read which stops 1 sector short of the last sector. Affected hardware includes the Kingston "MobileLite" external USB cardreader and the internal USB cardreader on the Asus EeePC. Extend the last_sector_bug workaround to ensure that any access which touches the last 8 hardware sectors of the device is a single sector long. Requests are shrunk as necessary to meet this constraint. This gives us a safety margin against potential unknown or future bugs affecting multi-sector access to the end of the device. The two known bugs only affect the last 2 sectors. However, they suggest that these devices are prone to fencepost errors and that multi-sector access to the end of the device is not well tested. Popular OS's use multi-sector accesses, but they rarely read the last few sectors. Linux (with udev & vol_id) automatically reads sectors from the end of the device on insertion. It is assumed that single sector accesses are more thoroughly tested during development.

Add a new ia_valid flag: ATTR_TIMES_SET, to handle the UTIMES_OMIT/UTIMES_NOW and UTIMES_NOW/UTIMES_OMIT cases. In these cases neither ATTR_MTIME_SET nor ATTR_ATIME_SET is in the flags, yet the POSIX draft specifies that permission checking is performed the same way as if one or both of the times was explicitly set to a timestamp. See the path "vfs: utimensat(): fix error checking for {UTIME_NOW,UTIME_OMIT} case" by Michael Kerrisk for the patch introducing this behavior. This is a cleanup, as well as allowing filesystems (NFS/fuse/...) to perform their own permission checking instead of the default.

In a sense, that's the heart of the series. It's based on the following property of the trees we are actually asked to add: they can be split into stem that is already covered by registered trees and crown that is entirely new. IOW, if a/b and a/c/d are introduced by our tree, then a/c is also introduced by it. That allows to associate tree and table entry with each node in the union; while directory nodes might be covered by many trees, only one will cover the node by its crown. And that will allow much saner logics for /proc/sys in the next patches. This patch introduces the data structures needed to keep track of that. When adding a sysctl table, we find a "parent" one. Which is to say, find the deepest node on its stem that already is present in one of the tables from our table set or its ancestor sets. That table will be our parent and that node in it - attachment point. Add our table to list anchored in parent, have it refer the parent and contents of attachment point. Also remember where its crown lives. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Refcount the sucker; instead of freeing it by the end of unregistration just drop the refcount and free only when it hits zero. Make sure that we _always_ make ->unregistering non-NULL in start_unregistering(). That allows anybody to get a reference to such puppy, preventing its freeing and reuse. It does *not* block unregistration. Anybody who holds such a reference can * try to grab a "use" reference (ctl_head_grab()); that will succeeds if and only if it hadn't entered unregistration yet. If it succeeds, we can use it in all normal ways until we release the "use" reference (with ctl_head_finish()). Note that this relies on having ->unregistering become non-NULL in all cases when one starts to unregister the sucker. * keep pointers to ctl_table entries; they *can* be freed if the entire thing is unregistered. However, if ctl_head_grab() succeeds, we know that unregistration had not happened (and will not happen until ctl_head_finish()) and such pointers can be used safely. IOW, now we can have inodes under /proc/sys keep references to ctl_table entries, protecting them with references to ctl_table_header and grabbing the latter for the duration of operations that require access to ctl_table. That won't cause deadlocks, since unregistration will not be stopped by mere keeping a reference to ctl_table_header. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

For each card successfully added to the bus, create a subdirectory under the host's debugfs root with information about the card. At the moment, only a single file is added to the card directory for all cards: "state". It reflects the "state" field in struct mmc_card, indicating whether the card is present, readonly, etc. For MMC and SD cards (not SDIO), another file is added: "status". Reading this file will ask the card about its current status and return it. This can be useful if the card just refuses to respond to any commands, which might indicate that the card state is not what the MMC core thinks it is (due to a missing stop command, for example.)
