Currently we disable barriers as soon as we get a buffer in xlog_iodone
that has the XBF_ORDERED flag cleared. But this can be the case not only
for buffers where the barrier failed, but also the first buffer of a
split log write in case of a log wraparound. Due to the disabled
barriers we can easily get directory corruption on unclean shutdowns.
So instead of using this check add a new buffer flag for failed barrier
writes.
This is a regression vs 2.6.26 caused by patch to use the right macro
to check for the ORDERED flag, as we previously got true returned for
every buffer.
Thanks to Toei Rei for reporting the bug.

PnP: move pnpacpi/pnpbios_init to after PCI init
We already did that a long time ago for pnp_system_init, but
pnpacpi_init and pnpbios_init remained as subsys_initcalls, and get
linked into the kernel before the arch-specific routines that finalize
the PCI resources (pci_subsys_init).
This means that the PnP routines would either register their resources
before the PCI layer could, or would be unable to check whether a PCI
resource had already been registered. Both are problematic.
I wanted to do this before 2.6.27, but every time we change something
like this, something breaks. That said, _every_ single time we trust
some firmware (like PnP tables) more than we trust the hardware itself
(like PCI probing), the problems have been worse.

dm raid1: kcopyd should stop on error if errors handled
dm-raid1 is setting the 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag unconditionally
when assigning kcopyd work. kcopyd is responsible for copying an
assigned section of disk to one or more other disks. The
'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag affects kcopyd in the following way:
When not set:
kcopyd will immediately stop the copy operation when an error is
encountered.
When set:
kcopyd will try to proceed regardless of errors and try to continue
copying any remaining amount.
Since dm-raid1 tracks regions of the address space that are (or
are not) in sync and it now has the ability to handle these
errors, we can safely enable this optimization. This optimization
is conditional on whether mirror error handling has been enabled.

Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPEND
This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the
combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination.
It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and
POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So
we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones.
But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought,
and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for
IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse
isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file).
So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this
way we have one less gray area to worry about.
