This reverts the following patch, which shouldn't have been applied
to the .32 stable tree as it causes problems.
commit 5fd4514bb3 upstream.

commit 180ce7e810 upstream.
When Steffen originally wrote the authenc async hash patch, he
correctly had EINPROGRESS checks in place so that we did not invoke
the original completion handler with it.
Unfortuantely I told him to remove it before the patch was applied.
As only MAY_BACKLOG request completion handlers are required to
handle EINPROGRESS completions, those checks are really needed.
This patch restores them.

Johannes' patch 34e8950 titled:
mac80211: allow station add/remove to sleep
changed the way mac80211 adds and removes peers. The new
sta_add() / sta_remove() callbacks allowed the driver callbacks
to sleep. Johannes also ported ath9k to use sta_add() / sta_remove()
via the patch 4ca7786 titled:
ath9k: convert to new station add/remove callbacks
but this patch forgot to address a change in locking issue which
Ming Lei eventually found on his 2.6.33-wl #12 build. The 2.6.33-wl
build includes code for the 802.11 subsystem for 2.6.34 though so did
already have the above two patches (ath9k_sta_remove() on his trace),
the 2.6.33 kernel did not however have these two patches. Ming eventually
cured his lockdep warnign via the patch a9f042c titled:
ath9k: fix lockdep warning when unloading module
This went in to 2.6.34 and although it was not marked as a stable
fix it did get trickled down and applied on both 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.
In review, the culprits:
mac80211: allow station add/remove to sleep
git describe --contains 34e895075e
v2.6.34-rc1~233^2~49^2~107
ath9k: convert to new station add/remove callbacks
git describe --contains 4ca778605c
v2.6.34-rc1~233^2~49^2~10
ath9k: fix lockdep warning when unloading module
This last one trickled down to 2.6.33 (OK), 2.6.33 (invalid) and 2.6.32 (invalid).
git describe --contains a9f042cbe5
v2.6.34-rc2~48^2~77^2~7
git describe --contains 0524bcfa80
v2.6.33.2~125
git describe --contains 0dcc9985f3
v2.6.32.11~79
The patch titled "ath9k: fix lockdep warning when unloading module"
should be reverted on both 2.6.33 and 2.6.32 as it is invalid and
actually ended up causing the following warning:

commit 4ae69e6b71 upstream.
Redirecting directly to lsm, here's the patch discussed on lkml:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/22/219
The mmap_min_addr value is useful information for an admin to see without
being root ("is my system vulnerable to kernel NULL pointer attacks?") and
its setting is trivially easy for an attacker to determine by calling
mmap() in PAGE_SIZE increments starting at 0, so trying to keep it private
has no value.
Only require CAP_SYS_RAWIO if changing the value, not reading it.

commit 34441427aa upstream.
Originally, commit d899bf7b ("procfs: provide stack information for
threads") attempted to introduce a new feature for showing where the
threadstack was located and how many pages are being utilized by the
stack.
Commit c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") was
applied to fix the NO_MMU case.
Commit 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on
64-bit") was applied to fix a bug in ia32 executables being loaded.
Commit 9ebd4eba7 ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/stat stack pointer for kernel
threads") was applied to fix a bug which had kernel threads printing a
userland stack address.
Commit 1306d603f ('proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack
information for threads"') was then applied to revert the stack pages
being used to solve a significant performance regression.
This patch nearly undoes the effect of all these patches.
The reason for reverting these is it provides an unusable value in
field 28. For x86_64, a fork will result in the task->stack_start
value being updated to the current user top of stack and not the stack
start address. This unpredictability of the stack_start value makes
it worthless. That includes the intended use of showing how much stack
space a thread has.
Other architectures will get different values. As an example, ia64
gets 0. The do_fork() and copy_process() functions appear to treat the
stack_start and stack_size parameters as architecture specific.
I only partially reverted c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage
on NOMMU") . If I had completely reverted it, I would have had to change
mm/Makefile only build pagewalk.o when CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR is
configured. Since I could not test the builds without significant effort,
I decided to not change mm/Makefile.
I only partially reverted 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack
information for threads on 64-bit") . I left the KSTK_ESP() change in
place as that seemed worthwhile.

commit 1306d603fc upstream.
Commit d899bf7b (procfs: provide stack information for threads) introduced
to show stack information in /proc/{pid}/status. But it cause large
performance regression. Unfortunately /proc/{pid}/status is used ps
command too and ps is one of most important component. Because both to
take mmap_sem and page table walk are heavily operation.
If many process run, the ps performance is,
[before d899bf7b]
% perf stat ps >/dev/null
Performance counter stats for 'ps':

Thus, this patch revert it. Fortunately /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/smaps
provide almost same information. we can use it.
Commit d899bf7b introduced two features:
1) Add the annotattion of [thread stack: xxxx] mark to
/proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/maps.
2) Add StackUsage field to /proc/{pid}/status.
I only revert (2), because I haven't seen (1) cause regression.

The imx CTS trigger level is left at its reset value that is 32

FIFO already is full. However, some serial port devices first empty

chars.
This patch sets the trigger level lower so that other chars arrive
after CTS is raised, there is still room for 16 of them.

commit 3d69438031 upstream.
When we made serverino the default, we trusted that the field sent by the
server in the "uniqueid" field was actually unique. It turns out that it
isn't reliably so.
Samba, in particular, will just put the st_ino in the uniqueid field when
unix extensions are enabled. When a share spans multiple filesystems, it's
quite possible that there will be collisions. This is a server bug, but
when the inodes in question are a directory (as is often the case) and
there is a collision with the root inode of the mount, the result is a
kernel panic on umount.
Fix this by checking explicitly for directory inodes with the same
uniqueid. If that is the case, then we can assume that using server inode
numbers will be a problem and that they should be disabled.

commit 0fe1ac48be upstream.
Anton Blanchard found that large POWER systems would occasionally
crash in the exception exit path when profiling with perf_events.
The symptom was that an interrupt would occur late in the exit path
when the MSR[RI] (recoverable interrupt) bit was clear. Interrupts
should be hard-disabled at this point but they were enabled. Because
the interrupt was not recoverable the system panicked.
The reason is that the exception exit path was calling
perf_event_do_pending after hard-disabling interrupts, and
perf_event_do_pending will re-enable interrupts.
The simplest and cleanest fix for this is to use the same mechanism
that 32-bit powerpc does, namely to cause a self-IPI by setting the
decrementer to 1. This means we can remove the tests in the exception
exit path and raw_local_irq_restore.
This also makes sure that the call to perf_event_do_pending from
timer_interrupt() happens within irq_enter/irq_exit. (Note that
calling perf_event_do_pending from timer_interrupt does not mean that
there is a possible 1/HZ latency; setting the decrementer to 1 ensures
that the timer interrupt will happen immediately, i.e. within one
timebase tick, which is a few nanoseconds or 10s of nanoseconds.)

commit 4a6018f7f4 upstream.
Ordinarily, application using hugetlbfs will create mappings with
reserves. For shared mappings, these pages are reserved before mmap()
returns success and for private mappings, the caller process is guaranteed
and a child process that cannot get the pages gets killed with sigbus.
An application that uses MAP_NORESERVE gets no reservations and mmap()
will always succeed at the risk the page will not be available at fault
time. This might be used for example on very large sparse mappings where
the developer is confident the necessary huge pages exist to satisfy all
faults even though the whole mapping cannot be backed by huge pages.
Unfortunately, if an allocation does fail, VM_FAULT_OOM is returned to the
fault handler which proceeds to trigger the OOM-killer. This is
unhelpful.
Even without hugetlbfs mounted, a user using mmap() can trivially trigger
the OOM-killer because VM_FAULT_OOM is returned (will provide example
program if desired - it's a whopping 24 lines long). It could be
considered a DOS available to an unprivileged user.
This patch alters hugetlbfs to kill a process that uses MAP_NORESERVE
where huge pages were not available with SIGBUS instead of triggering the
OOM killer.
This change affects hugetlb_cow() as well. I feel there is a failure case
in there, but I didn't create one. It would need a fairly specific target
in terms of the faulting application and the hugepage pool size. The
hugetlb_no_page() path is much easier to hit but both might as well be
closed.

commit ccc2d97cb7 upstream.
commit 2783ef23 moved the initialisation of saddr and daddr after
pskb_may_pull() to avoid a potential data corruption. Unfortunately
also placing it after the short packet and bad checksum error paths,
where these variables are used for logging. The result is bogus
output like
[92238.389505] UDP: short packet: From 2.0.0.0:65535 23715/178 to 0.0.0.0:65535
Moving the saddr and daddr initialisation above the error paths, while still
keeping it after the pskb_may_pull() to keep the fix from commit 2783ef23.

(cherry picked from commit e65c7f33d75e977350ca350573d93c517ec02776)
Previously it was unconditionally used on all Sibyte family SOCs. The
M3 bug has to be handled in the TLB exception handler which is extremly
performance sensitive, so this modification is expected to deliver around
2-3% performance improvment. This is important as required changes to the
M3 workaround will make it more costly.

commit 77a4229719 upstream.
There's nastyness in the way we currently handle barriers (and
discards): They're effectively filesystem commands, but they get
processed as BLOCK_PC commands. Unfortunately BLOCK_PC commands are
taken by SCSI to be SG_IO commands and the issuer expects to see and
handle any returned errors, however trivial. This leads to a huge
problem, because the block layer doesn't expect this to happen and any
trivially retryable error on a barrier causes an immediate I/O error
to the filesystem.
The only real way to hack around this is to take the usual class of
offending errors (unit attentions) and make them all retryable in the
case of a REQ_HARDBARRIER. A correct fix would involve a rework of
the entire block and SCSI submit system, and so is out of scope for a
quick fix.

commit c213e1407b upstream.
Some arrays are giving I/O errors with ext3 filesystems when
SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE gets a UNIT_ATTENTION. What is happening is that
these commands have no retries, so the UNIT_ATTENTION causes the
barrier to fail. We should be enable retries here to clear any
transient error and allow the barrier to succeed.

[SCSI] libiscsi: don't increment cmdsn if cmd is not sent
in 2.6.32.
When I moved the hdr->cmdsn after init_task, I added
a bug when header digests are used. The problem is
that the LLD may calculate the header digest in init_task,
so if we then set the cmdsn after the init_task call we
change what the digest will be calculated by the target.

commit 1c6fe0364f upstream.
commit 672917dcc7 ("cpuidle: menu governor: reduce latency on exit")
added an optimization, where the analysis on the past idle period moved
from the end of idle, to the beginning of the new idle.
Unfortunately, this optimization had a bug where it zeroed one key
variable for new use, that is needed for the analysis. The fix is
simple, zero the variable after doing the work from the previous idle.
During the audit of the code that found this issue, another issue was
also found; the ->measured_us data structure member is never set, a
local variable is always used instead.

commit 07bedca29b upstream.
Multiple Lenovo ThinkPad models with Intel Core i5/i7 CPUs can
successfully suspend/resume once, and then hang on the second s/r
cycle.
We got confirmation that this was due to a BIOS defect. The BIOS
did not properly set SCI_EN coming out of S3. The BIOS guys
hinted that The Other Leading OS ignores the fact that hardware
owns the bit and sets it manually.
In any case, an existing DMI table exists for machines where this
defect is a known problem. Lenovo promise to fix their BIOS, but
for folks who either won't or can't upgrade their BIOS, allow
Linux to workaround the issue.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15407https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/532374
Confirmed by numerous testers in the launchpad bug that using
acpi_sleep=sci_force_enable fixes the issue. We add the machines
to acpisleep_dmi_table[] to automatically enable this workaround.
