mm: kill validate_anon_vma to avoid mapcount BUG
validate_anon_vma gave a useful check on the integrity of the anon_vma list
when Andrea was developing obj rmap; but it was not enabled in SLES9
itself, nor in mainline, until Nick changed commented-out RMAP_DEBUG to
configurable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM in 2.6.17. Now Petr Vandrovec reports that
its BUG_ON(mapcount > 100000) can easily crash a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y system.
That limit was just an arbitrary number to protect against an infinite
loop. We could raise it to something enormous (depending on sizeof struct
vma and size of memory?); but I rather think validate_anon_vma has outlived
its usefulness, and is better just removed - which gives a magnificent
performance boost to anything like Petr's test program ;)
Of course, a very long anon_vma list is bad news for preemption latency,
and I believe there has been one recent report of such: let's not forget
that, but validate_anon_vma only makes it worse not better.

PNP SMCf010 quirk: auto-config device if BIOS left it broken
Some HP firmware leaves the SMCf010 IRDA device incompletely configured, or
reports the wrong resources in _CRS. As a workaround, when we find such a
device, try to auto-configure the device.
This ignores the _CRS data, picks a config from _PRS, and runs _SRS to
configure the device. This makes smsc-ircc2 work correctly with PNP
resources (with no preconfiguration!) on all the machines I tested.
I think Windows does something like this by default for all devices,
so we should consider doing the same thing in Linux.
This patch addresses part of the 2.6.22 regression:
"no irda0 interface (2.6.21 was OK), smsc does not find chip"
It fixes smsc-ircc2 PNP device detection on HP nc6000, nc6220, nw8000,
nw8240, and possibly other machines.

This patch fixes the processes involved in wiping regions of the data during
truncate and write events, fixing a kernel hang in 2.6.22-rc4 while assuring
that zero values are written out to the appropriate locations during events in
which the i_size will change.
The range passed to ecryptfs_truncate() from ecryptfs_prepare_write() includes
the page that is the object of ecryptfs_prepare_write(). This leads to a
kernel hang as read_cache_page() is executed on the same page in the
ecryptfs_truncate() execution path. This patch remedies this by limiting the
range passed to ecryptfs_truncate() so as to exclude the page that is the
object of ecryptfs_prepare_write(); it also adds code to
ecryptfs_prepare_write() to zero out the region of its own page when writing
past the i_size position. This patch also modifies ecryptfs_truncate() so
that when a file is truncated to a smaller size, eCryptfs will zero out the
contents of the new last page from the new size through to the end of the last

x86_64 irq: use mask/unmask and proper locking in fixup_irqs()
Force irq migration path during cpu offline, is not using proper locks and
irq_chip mask/unmask routines. This will result in some races(especially
the device generating the interrupt can see some inconsistent state,
resulting in issues like stuck irq,..).
Appended patch fixes the issue by taking proper lock and encapsulating
irq_chip set_affinity() with a mask() before and an unmask() after.
This fixes a MSI irq stuck issue reported by Darrick Wong.
There are several more general bugs in this area(irq migration in the
process context). For example,
1. Possibility of missing edge triggered irq.
2. Reliable method of migrating level triggered irq in the process context.
We plan to look and close these in the near future.
Eric says:
In addition even with the fix from Suresh there is still at least one
nasty hardware race in fixup_irqs(). However we exercise that code
path rarely enough that we are unlikely to hit it in the real world,
and that race seems to have existed since the code was merged. And a
fix for that is not coming soon as it is an open investigation area
if we can fix irq migration to work outside of irq context or if
we have to rework the requirements imposed by the generic cpu hotplug
and layer on fixup_irqs(). So this may come up again.

[POWERPC] Fix subtle FP state corruption bug in signal return on SMP
This fixes a bug which can cause corruption of the floating-point state
on return from a signal handler. If we have a signal handler that has
used the floating-point registers, and it happens to context-switch to
another task while copying the interrupted floating-point state from the
user stack into the thread struct (e.g. because of a page fault, or
because it gets preempted), the context switch code will think that the
FP registers contain valid FP state that needs to be copied into the
thread_struct, and will thus overwrite the values that the signal return
code has put into the thread_struct.
This can occur because we clear the MSR bits that indicate the presence
of valid FP state after copying the state into the thread_struct. To fix
this we just move the clearing of the MSR bits to before the copy. A
similar potential problem also occurs with the Altivec state, and this
fixes that in the same way.

ACPI: preserve the ebx value in acpi_copy_wakeup_routine
Register %ebx serves as the "global offset table base register" for
position-independent code. For absolute code, %ebx serves as a local
register and has no specified role in the function calling sequence. In
either case, a function must preserve the register value for the caller.
acpi_copy_wakeup_routine overrides %ebx without saving it, this may corrupt
the called data.
Kevin found that most time the value of Sx is saved in %esi, however
sometimes compiler also uses %ebx. When this happens, suspends fails since
sleep value in ebx is changed by acpi_copy_wakeup_routine.
The same funtion in X86_64 doesn't have this problem.

x86_64: fix misplaced `continue' in mce.c
Background:
When a userspace application wants to know about machine check events, it
opens /dev/mcelog and does a read(). Usually, we found that this interface
works well, but in some cases, when the system was taking large numbers of
machine check exceptions, the read() would hang. The system would output a
soft-lockup warning, and the daemon reading from /dev/mcelog would suck up
as much of a single CPU as it could spinning in system space.
Description:
This patch fixes this bug. In particular, there was a "continue" inside a
timeout loop that presumably was intended to break out of the outer loop,
but instead caused the inner loop to continue. This patch also makes the
condition for the break-out a little more evident by changing a
!time_before to a time_after_eq.
Result:
The read() no longer hangs in this test case.
Testing:
On my system, I could replicate the bug with the following command:
# for i in `seq 15000`; do ./inject_sbe.sh; done
where inject_sbe.sh contains commands to inject a single-bit error into the
next memory write transaction.

console UTF-8 fixes (fix)
Recently my console UTF-8 patch went mainline. Here is an additional patch
that fixes two nasty issues and improves a third one, namely:
1. My patch changed the behavior if a glyph is not found in the Unicode
mapping table. Previously for Unicode values less than 256 or 512 the
kernel tried to display the glyph from that position of the glyph table,
which could lead to a different accented letter being displayed. I
removed this fallback possibility and changed it to display the
replacement symbol.
As Behdad pointed out, some fonts (e.g. sun12x22 from the kbd package)
lack Unicode mapping information, hence all you get is lots of question
marks. Though theoretically it's actually a user-space bug (the font
should be fixed), Behdad and I both believe that it'd be good to work
around in the kernel by re-introducing the fallback solution for ASCII
characters only. This sounds a quite reasonable decision, since all fonts
ship the ASCII characters in the first 128 positions. This way users
won't be surprised by lots of question marks just because s/he issued a
not-so-perfectly parameterized setfont command. As this fallback is only
re-introduced for code points below 128, you still won't see an accented
letter replaced by another, but at least you'll always get the English
letters right.
2. My patch introduced "question mark with inverted color attributes" as a
last resort fallback glyph. Though it perfectly works on VGA console, on
framebuffer you may end up with question marks that are highlighed but
shouldn't be, and normal characters that are accidentally highlighed.
This is caused by missing FLUSHes when changing the color attribute.
3. I've updated the table of double-width character based on Markus's
updated version. Only ten new code poings (one interval) is added.
