We don't change pid_ns->child_reaper when the main thread of the
subnamespace init exits.  As Robert Rex <robert.rex@exasol.com> pointed
out this is wrong.

Yes, the re-parenting itself works correctly, but if the reparented task
exits it needs ->parent->nsproxy->pid_ns in do_notify_parent(), and if the
main thread is zombie its ->nsproxy was already cleared by
exit_task_namespaces().

Introduce the new function, find_new_reaper(), which finds the new
->parent for the re-parenting and changes ->child_reaper if needed.  Kill
the now unneeded exit_child_reaper().

Also move the changing of ->child_reaper from zap_pid_ns_processes() to
find_new_reaper(), this consolidates the games with ->child_reaper and
makes it stable under tasklist_lock.

zap_pid_ns_processes() sets pid_ns->child_reaper = NULL, this is wrong.

Yes, we have already killed all tasks in this namespace, and sys_wait4()
doesn't see any child.  But this doesn't mean ->children list is empty, we
may have EXIT_DEAD tasks which are not visible to do_wait().  In that case
the subsequent forget_original_parent() will crash the kernel because it
will try to re-parent these tasks to the NULL reaper.

Even if there are no childs, it is not good that forget_original_parent()
uses reaper == NULL.

Change the code to set ->child_reaper = init_pid_ns.child_reaper instead.
We could use pid_ns->parent->child_reaper as well, I think this does not
really matter.  These EXIT_DEAD tasks are not visible to the new ->parent
after re-parenting, they will silently do release_task() eventually.

Note that we must change ->child_reaper, otherwise
forget_original_parent() will use reaper == father, and in that case we
will hit the (correct) BUG_ON(!list_empty(&father->children)).

At91_mci is abusing dma_free_coherent(), which may not be called with IRQs
disabled.  I saw "mkfs.ext3" on an MMC card objecting voluminously as each
write completed:

 ...

This bug has been around for a LONG time.  The MM warning is from late
2005, but the driver merged a year later ...  so I'm puzzled why nobody
noticed this before now.

The fix involves noting that this buffer shouldn't be DMA-coherent; it's
just used for normal DMA writes.  So replace it with standard kmalloc()
buffering and DMA mapping calls.

This is the quickie fix.  A better one would not rely on allocating large
bounce buffers.  (Note that dma_alloc_coherent could have failed too, but
that case was ignored...  kmalloc is a bit more likely to fail though.)

Recent changes to tighten the check for UARTs that don't correctly
re-assert THRE (01c194d9: "serial 8250:
tighten test for using backup timer") caused problems when such a UART was
opened for the second time - the bug could only successfully be detected
at first initialization.  For users of this version of this particular
UART IP it is fatal.

This patch stores the information about the bug in the bugs field of the
port structure when the port is first started up so subsequent opens can
check this bit even if the test for the bug fails.

David Brownell: "My own exposure to this is that the UART on DaVinci
hardware, which TI allegedly derived from its original 16550 logic, has
periodically gone from working to unusable with the mainline 8250.c ...
and back and forth a bunch.  Currently it's "unusable", a regression from
some previous versions.  With this patch from Will, it's usable."

Dio write returns EIO when try_to_release_page fails because bh is
still referenced.

The patch

    commit 3f31fddf
    Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com>
    Date:   Fri Jul 25 01:46:22 2008 -0700

        jbd: fix race between free buffer and commit transaction

was merged into 2.6.27-rc1, but I noticed that this patch is not enough
to fix the race.

I did fsstress test heavily to 2.6.27-rc1, and found that dio write still
sometimes got EIO through this test.

The patch above fixed race between freeing buffer(dio) and committing
transaction(jbd) but I discovered that there is another race, freeing
buffer(dio) and ext3/4_ordered_writepage.

: background_writeout()
     ->write_cache_pages()
       ->ext3_ordered_writepage()
     	   walk_page_buffers() -> take a bh ref
 	   block_write_full_page() -> unlock_page
		: <- end_page_writeback
                : <- race! (dio write->try_to_release_page fails)
      	   walk_page_buffers() ->release a bh ref

ext3_ordered_writepage holds bh ref and does unlock_page remaining
taking a bh ref, so this causes the race and failure of
try_to_release_page.

To fix this race, I used the approach of falling back to buffered
writes if try_to_release_page() fails on a page.

I have gotten to the root cause of the hugetlb badness I reported back on
August 15th.  My system has the following memory topology (note the
overlapping node):

            Node 0 Memory: 0x8000000-0x44000000
            Node 1 Memory: 0x0-0x8000000 0x44000000-0x80000000

setup_zone_migrate_reserve() scans the address range 0x0-0x8000000 looking
for a pageblock to move onto the MIGRATE_RESERVE list.  Finding no
candidates, it happily continues the scan into 0x8000000-0x44000000.  When
a pageblock is found, the pages are moved to the MIGRATE_RESERVE list on
the wrong zone.  Oops.

setup_zone_migrate_reserve() should skip pageblocks in overlapping nodes.
