[PATCH] mm: fix xip issue with /dev/zero
Fix the bug, that reading into xip mapping from /dev/zero fills the user
page table with ZERO_PAGE() entries. Later on, xip cannot tell which pages
have been ZERO_PAGE() filled by access to a sparse mapping, and which ones
origin from /dev/zero. It will unmap ZERO_PAGE from all mappings when
filling the sparse hole with data. xip does now use its own zeroed page
for its sparse mappings. Please apply.

[PATCH] holepunch: fix mmap_sem i_mutex deadlock
sys_madvise has down_write of mmap_sem, then madvise_remove calls
vmtruncate_range which takes i_mutex and i_alloc_sem: no, we can easily devise
deadlocks from that ordering.
madvise_remove drop mmap_sem while calling vmtruncate_range: luckily, since
madvise_remove doesn't split or merge vmas, it's easy to handle this case with
a NULL prev, without restructuring sys_madvise. (Though sad to retake
mmap_sem when it's unlikely to be needed, and certainly down_read is
sufficient for MADV_REMOVE, unlike the other madvices.)

[PATCH] holepunch: fix disconnected pages after second truncate
shmem_truncate_range has its own truncate_inode_pages_range, to free any pages
racily instantiated while it was in progress: a SHMEM_PAGEIN flag is set when
this might have happened. But holepunching gets no chance to clear that flag
at the start of vmtruncate_range, so it's always set (unless a truncate came
just before), so holepunch almost always does this second
truncate_inode_pages_range.
shmem holepunch has unlikely swap<->file races hereabouts whatever we do
(without a fuller rework than is fit for this release): I was going to skip
the second truncate in the punch_hole case, but Miklos points out that would
make holepunch correctness more vulnerable to swapoff. So keep the second
truncate, but follow it by an unmap_mapping_range to eliminate the
disconnected pages (freed from pagecache while still mapped in userspace) that
it might have left behind.
Miklos Szeredi observes that during truncation of shmem page directories,
info->lock is released to improve latency (after lowering i_size and
next_index to exclude races); but this is quite wrong for holepunching, which
receives no such protection from i_size or next_index, and is left vulnerable
to races with shmem_unuse, shmem_getpage and shmem_writepage.
Hold info->lock throughout when holepunching? No, any user could prevent
rescheduling for far too long. Instead take info->lock just when needed: in
shmem_free_swp when removing the swap entries, and whenever removing a
directory page from the level above. But so long as we remove before
scanning, we can safely skip taking the lock at the lower levels, except at
misaligned start and end of the hole.

[PATCH] holepunch: fix shmem_truncate_range punching too far
Miklos Szeredi observes BUG_ON(!entry) in shmem_writepage() triggered in rare
circumstances, because shmem_truncate_range() erroneously removes partially
truncated directory pages at the end of the range: later reclaim on pages
pointing to these removed directories triggers the BUG. Indeed, and it can
also cause data loss beyond the hole.
Fix this as in the patch proposed by Miklos, but distinguish between "limit"
(how far we need to search: ignore truncation's next_index optimization in the
holepunch case - if there are races it's more consistent to act on the whole
range specified) and "upper_limit" (how far we can free directory pages:
generally we must be careful to keep partially punched pages, but can relax at
end of file - i_size being held stable by i_mutex).

[PATCH] uml: fix LVM crash
Permit lvm to create logical volumes without crashing UML.
When device-mapper's DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD ioctl is called to create a new device,
dev_create()->dm_create()->alloc_dev()-> blk_queue_bounce_limit(md->queue,
BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) is called.
blk_queue_bounce_limit(BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) calls init_emergency_isa_pool() if
blk_max_pfn < blk_max_low_pfn. This is the case on UML, but
init_emergency_isa_pool() hits BUG_ON(!isa_page_pool) because there doesn't
seem to be a dma zone on UML for mempool_create() to allocate from.
Most architectures seem to have max_low_pfn == max_pfn, but UML doesn't
because of the uml_reserved chunk it keeps for itself. From what I can see,
max_pfn and max_low_pfn don't get much use after the bootmem-allocator stops
being used anyway, except that they initialize the block layer's
blk_max_low_pfn/blk_max_pfn.
This ensures init_emergency_isa_pool() doesn't crash uml in this situation by
setting max_low_pfn == max_pfn in mem_init().

KVM: Prevent system selectors leaking into guest on real->protected mode transition on vmx
Intel virtualization extensions do not support virtualizing real mode. So
kvm uses virtualized vm86 mode to run real mode code. Unfortunately, this
virtualized vm86 mode does not support the so called "big real" mode, where
the segment selector and base do not agree with each other according to the
real mode rules (base == selector << 4).
To work around this, kvm checks whether a selector/base pair violates the
virtualized vm86 rules, and if so, forces it into conformance. On a
transition back to protected mode, if we see that the guest did not touch
a forced segment, we restore it back to the original protected mode value.
This pile of hacks breaks down if the gdt has changed in real mode, as it
can cause a segment selector to point to a system descriptor instead of a
normal data segment. In fact, this happens with the Windows bootloader
and the qemu acpi bios, where a protected mode memcpy routine issues an
innocent 'pop %es' and traps on an attempt to load a system descriptor.
"Fix" by checking if the to-be-restored selector points at a system segment,
and if so, coercing it into a normal data segment. The long term solution,
of course, is to abandon vm86 mode and use emulation for big real mode.
