[IA64] Rationalize kernel mode alignment checking
Itanium processors can handle some misaligned data accesses. They
also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The
kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode:
* Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps
generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle.
* Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all
unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference
vector.
Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make
sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode
as the default.

x86: Fix interrupt leak due to migration
When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the

become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes
the interrupt to become unusable.

The regression is fixed by comparing the contents of task->group_info

parisc: fix bug in compat_arch_ptrace
Commit 81e192d6ce303b6792aa38ff35f41a1a7357f23a ("parisc: convert to
generic compat_sys_ptrace") introduced a bug which segfaults the parisc
64bit kernel when stracing 32bit applications:
The problem is that compat_arch_ptrace() enters with an addr value of
type compat_ulong_t and calls translate_usr_offset() to translate the
address offset into a struct pt_regs offset like this:
addr = translate_usr_offset(addr)
this means that any return value of translate_usr_offset() is stored
back as compat_ulong_t type into the addr variable.
But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr
can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value
sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory:
if (addr < 0)
break;
Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return
values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value
"sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator.
Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values
for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs).

Currently, if multiple unicast addresses are programmed into a
mv643xx_eth interface, the core networking will resort to enabling
promiscuous mode on the interface, as mv643xx_eth does not implement
->set_rx_mode().
This patch switches mv643xx_eth over from ->set_multicast_list()
to ->set_rx_mode(), and implements support for secondary unicast
addresses. The hardware can handle multiple unicast addresses as
long as their first 11 nibbles are the same (i.e. are of the form
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xy where the x part is the same for all addresses), so
if that is the case, we use that mode. If it's not the case, we enable
unicast promiscuous mode in the hardware, which is slightly better than
enabling promiscuous mode for multicasts as well, which is what would
happen before.
While we are at it, change the programming sequence so that we
don't clear all filter bits first, so we don't lose all incoming
packets while the filter is being reprogrammed.

filter: add SKF_AD_NLATTR_NEST to look for nested attributes
SKF_AD_NLATTR allows us to find the first matching attribute in a
stream of netlink attributes from one offset to the end of the
netlink message. This is not suitable to look for a specific
matching inside a set of nested attributes.
For example, in ctnetlink messages, if we look for the CTA_V6_SRC
attribute in a message that talks about an IPv4 connection,
SKF_AD_NLATTR returns the offset of CTA_STATUS which has the same
value of CTA_V6_SRC but outside the nest. To differenciate
CTA_STATUS and CTA_V6_SRC, we would have to make assumptions on the
size of the attribute and the usual offset, resulting in horrible
BSF code.
This patch adds SKF_AD_NLATTR_NEST, which is a variant of
SKF_AD_NLATTR, that looks for an attribute inside the limits of
a nested attributes, but not further.
This patch validates that we have enough room to look for the
nested attributes - based on a suggestion from Patrick McHardy.
