    While testing a kernel with memory poisoning enabled, I saw some warnings
    about the redzone getting clobbered when chasing DFS referrals. The
    buffer allocation for the unicode converted version of the searchName is
    too small and needs to take null termination into account.

    USB: skip Set-Interface(0) if already in altsetting 0
    
    When a driver unbinds from an interface, usbcore always sends a
    Set-Interface request to reinstall altsetting 0.  Unforunately, quite
    a few devices have buggy firmware that crashes when it receives this
    request.
    
    To avoid such problems, this patch (as1180) arranges to send the
    Set-Interface request only when the interface is not already in
    altsetting 0.

    USB: fix comment about endianness of descriptors
    
    This patch fixes a comment and clarifies the documentation about the
    endianness of descriptors. The current policy is that descriptors will
    be little-endian at the API even on big-endian systems; however the
    /proc/bus/usb API predates this policy and presents descriptors with
    some multibyte fields byte-swapped.

    i2c-cpm: Detect and report NAK right away instead of timing out
    
    Make the driver report an ENXIO error immediately upon NAK instead of
    waiting for another interrupt and getting a timeout.
    
    When reading from a device that is not present or declines to respond
    to, e.g., a non-existent register address, CPM immediately reports a
    NAK condition in the TxBD, but the driver kept waiting until a timeout,
    which takes 1 second and causes an ugly console error message.

    powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Fix MSI after kexec
    
    Commit d015fe995 'powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt'
    has turned a rare failure to kexec on QS22 into a reproducible
    error, which we have now analysed.
    
    The problem is that after a kexec, the MSIC hardware still points
    into the middle of the old ring buffer.  We set up the ring buffer
    during reboot, but not the offset into it.  On older kernels, this
    would cause a storm of thousands of spurious interrupts after a
    kexec, which would most of the time get dropped silently.
    
    With the new code, we time out on each interrupt, waiting for
    it to become valid.  If more interrupts come in that we time
    out on, this goes on indefinitely, which eventually leads to
    a hard crash.
    
    The solution in this commit is to read the current offset from
    the MSIC when reinitializing it.  This now works correctly, as
    expected.

    powerpc: Fix bootmem reservation on uninitialized node
    
    careful_allocation() was calling into the bootmem allocator for
    nodes which had not been fully initialized and caused a previous
    bug:  http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/10528/  So, I merged a
    few broken out loops in do_init_bootmem() to fix it.  That changed
    the code ordering.
    
    I think this bug is triggered by having reserved areas for a node
    which are spanned by another node's contents.  In the
    mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code, we attempt to reserve the
    area for a node before we have allocated the NODE_DATA() for that
    nid.  We do this since I reordered that loop.  I suck.
    
    This is causing crashes at bootup on some systems, as reported
    by Jon Tollefson.
    
    This may only present on some systems that have 16GB pages
    reserved.  But, it can probably happen on any system that is
    trying to reserve large swaths of memory that happen to span other
    nodes' contents.
    
    This commit ensures that we do not touch bootmem for any node which
    has not been initialized, and also removes a compile warning about
    an unused variable.

    powerpc: Check for valid hugepage size in hugetlb_get_unmapped_area
    
    It looks like most of the hugetlb code is doing the correct thing if
    hugepages are not supported, but the mmap code is not.  If we get into
    the mmap code when hugepages are not supported, such as in an LPAR
    which is running Active Memory Sharing, we can oops the kernel.  This
    fixes the oops being seen in this path.

    cgroups: fix a race between rmdir and remount
    
    When a cgroup is removed, it's unlinked from its parent's children list,
    but not actually freed until the last dentry on it is released (at which
    point cgrp->root->number_of_cgroups is decremented).
    
    Currently rebind_subsystems checks for the top cgroup's child list being
    empty in order to rebind subsystems into or out of a hierarchy - this can
    result in the set of subsystems bound to a hierarchy being
    removed-but-not-freed cgroup.
    
    The simplest fix for this is to forbid remounts that change the set of
    subsystems on a hierarchy that has removed-but-not-freed cgroups.  This
    bug can be reproduced via:
    
    mkdir /mnt/cg
    mount -t cgroup -o ns,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
    mkdir /mnt/cg/foo
    sleep 1h < /mnt/cg/foo &
    rmdir /mnt/cg/foo
    mount -t cgroup -o remount,ns,devices,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
    kill $!
    
    Though the above will cause oops in -mm only but not mainline, but the bug
    can cause memory leak in mainline (and even oops)

    ACPI toshiba: only register rfkill if bt is enabled
    
    Part of the rfkill initialization was done whenever BT was on or not.  The
    following patch checks for BT presence before registering the rfkill to
    the input layer.  Some minor cleanups (> 80 char lines) were also added in
    the process.

    x86 Fix VMI crash on boot in 2.6.28-rc8
    
    VMI initialiation can relocate the fixmap, causing early_ioremap to
    malfunction if it is initialized before the relocation.  To fix this,
    VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection, which must
    happen before setting up ioremap, and the activation, which must happen
    after parsing early boot parameters.
    
    This fixes a crash on boot when VMI is enabled under VMware.

    powerpc/fsl-booke: Fix problem with _tlbil_va being interrupted
    
    An example calling sequence which we did see:
    
    copy_user_highpage -> kmap_atomic -> flush_tlb_page -> _tlbil_va
    
    We got interrupted after setting up the MAS registers before the
    tlbwe and the interrupt handler that caused the interrupt also did
    a kmap_atomic (ide code) and thus on returning from the interrupt
    the MAS registers no longer contained the proper values.
    
    Since we dont save/restore MAS registers for normal interrupts we
    need to disable interrupts in _tlbil_va to ensure atomicity.

    For the console, there is a 1:1 mapping of glyphs which cannot be found
    in the current font.  This seems to be meant as a kind of 'emergency
    fallback' for fonts without unicode mapping which otherwise would
    display nothing readable on the screen.
    
    At the moment it affects all chars for which no substitution character
    is defined.  In particular this means that for all chars (>= 128) where
    there is no iso88591-1/unicode character (e.g.  control character area)
    you'll get the very strange 1:1 mapping of the (cp437) graphics card
    glyphs.
    
    I'm pretty sure that the 1:1 mapping should only affect strict ASCII
    code characters, i.e.  chars < 128.
    
    The patch limits the mapping as it probably was meant anyway.

    unicode table for cp437
    
    There is a major bug in the cp437 to unicode translation table.  Char
    0x7c is mapped to U+00a5 which is the Yen sign and wrong.  The right
    mapping is U+00a6 (broken bar).
    
    Furthermore, a mapping for U+00b4 (a widely used character) is missing
    even though easily possible.
    
    The patch fixes these, as well as it provides a few other useful
    mappings.
    
    The changes are as follows:
    
      0x0f (enhancement) enables a sort of currency symbol
      0x27 (bug) enables a sort of acute accent which is a widely used character
      0x44 (enhancement) enables a sort of icelandic capital letter eth
      0x7c (major bug) corrects mapping
      0xeb (enhancement) enables a sort of icelandic small letter eth
      0xee (enhancement) enables a sort of math 'element of'

    netpoll: fix race on poll_list resulting in garbage entry
    
    	A few months back a race was discused between the netpoll napi service
    path, and the fast path through net_rx_action:
    http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2007/10/16/345470
    
    A patch was submitted for that bug, but I think we missed a case.
    
    Consider the following scenario:
    
    INITIAL STATE
    CPU0 has one napi_struct A on its poll_list
    CPU1 is calling netpoll_send_skb and needs to call poll_napi on the same
    napi_struct A that CPU0 has on its list
    
    
    
    CPU0						CPU1
    net_rx_action					poll_napi
    !list_empty (returns true)			locks poll_lock for A
    						 poll_one_napi
    						  napi->poll
    						   netif_rx_complete
    						    __napi_complete
    						    (removes A from poll_list)
    list_entry(list->next)
    
    
    In the above scenario, net_rx_action assumes that the per-cpu poll_list is
    exclusive to that cpu.  netpoll of course violates that, and because the netpoll
    path can dequeue from the poll list, its possible for CPU0 to detect a non-empty
    list at the top of the while loop in net_rx_action, but have it become empty by
    the time it calls list_entry.  Since the poll_list isn't surrounded by any other
    structure, the returned data from that list_entry call in this situation is
    garbage, and any number of crashes can result based on what exactly that garbage
    is.
    
    Given that its not fasible for performance reasons to place exclusive locks
    arround each cpus poll list to provide that mutal exclusion, I think the best
    solution is modify the netpoll path in such a way that we continue to guarantee
    that the poll_list for a cpu is in fact exclusive to that cpu.  To do this I've
    implemented the patch below.  It adds an additional bit to the state field in
    the napi_struct.  When executing napi->poll from the netpoll_path, this bit will
    be set. When a driver calls netif_rx_complete, if that bit is set, it will not
    remove the napi_struct from the poll_list.  That work will be saved for the next
    iteration of net_rx_action.
    
    I've tested this and it seems to work well.  About the biggest drawback I can
    see to it is the fact that it might result in an extra loop through
    net_rx_action in the event that the device is actually contended for (i.e. the
    netpoll path actually preforms all the needed work no the device, and the call
    to net_rx_action winds up doing nothing, except removing the napi_struct from
    the poll_list.  However I think this is probably a small price to pay, given
    that the alternative is a crash.

    ipv6: silence log messages for locally generated multicast
    
    This patch fixes minor annoyance during transmission of unsolicited
    neighbor advertisements from userspace to multicast addresses (as
    far as I can see in RFC, this is allowed and the similar functionality
    for IPv4 has been in arping for a long time).
    
    Outgoing multicast packets get reinserted into local processing as if they
    are received from the network. The machine thus sees its own NA and fills
    the logs with error messages. This patch removes the message if NA has been
    generated locally.

    sungem: improve ethtool output with internal pcs and serdes
    
    From: Hermann Lauer <Hermann.Lauer@iwr.uni-heidelberg.de>
    
    Attached is a patch which improves the output of ethtool (see below)
    to some sensefull values with a sungem fibre card which uses the
    sungem interal pcs connected to a serdes chip. The seriallink case in
    the driver is untouched.
    
    Most values are hardcoded, because gigabit fibre autoneg is anyways
    limited and the driver don't really support much at the moment with
    that hardware.

    tcp: tcp_vegas cong avoid fix
    
    This patch addresses a book-keeping issue in tcp_vegas.c.  At present
    tcp_vegas does separate book-keeping of cwnd based on packet sequence
    numbers.  A mismatch can develop between this book-keeping and
    tp->snd_cwnd due, for example, to delayed acks acking multiple
    packets.  When vegas transitions to reno operation (e.g. following
    loss), then this mismatch leads to incorrect behaviour (akin to a cwnd
    backoff).  This seems mostly to affect operation at low cwnds where
    delayed acking can lead to a significant fraction of cwnd being
    covered by a single ack, leading to the book-keeping mismatch.  This
    patch modifies the congestion avoidance update to avoid the need for
    separate book-keeping while leaving vegas congestion avoidance
    functionally unchanged.  A secondary advantage of this modification is
    that the use of fixed-point (via V_PARAM_SHIFT) and 64 bit arithmetic
    is no longer necessary, simplifying the code.
    
    Some example test measurements with the patched code (confirming no functional
    change in the congestion avoidance algorithm) can be seen at:

    sungem: Make PCS PHY support partially work again.
    
    As reported by Hermann Lauer, PCS PHY support in the sungem
    driver simply doesn't work.
    
    When the chip is reset due to open, or some other similar operation,
    the PCS is reset too but we don't program it back into a running
    state.  The result is no link when the device is brought up.
    
    This partially rectifies the situation for the moment, by kicking
    the PCS after a sungem chip reset so that it will renegotiate and
    be re-enabled again.
    
    The behavior is still a little bit dodgy as the added renegotiate
    make the link take some time after bringing the interface up,
    but this is a significant improvement in that things actually work
    now :-)
    
    Based almost entirely upon an initial patch by Hermann.
