The extended crashkernel syntax is a little confusing in the way it handles
ranges. eg:
crashkernel=512M-2G:64M,2G-:128M
Means if the machine has between 512M and 2G of memory the crash region should
be 64M, and if the machine has 2G of memory the region should be 64M. Only if
the machine has more than 2G memory will 128M be allocated.
Although that semantic is correct, it is somewhat baffling. Instead I propose
that the end of the range means the first address past the end of the range,
ie: 512M up to but not including 2G.

If utimensat() is called with both times set to UTIME_NOW or one of them to
UTIME_NOW and the other to UTIME_OMIT, then it will update the file time
without any permission checking.
I don't think this can be used for anything other than a local DoS, but could
be quite bewildering at that (e.g. "Why was that large source tree rebuilt
when I didn't modify anything???")
This affects all kernels from 2.6.22, when the utimensat() syscall was
introduced.
Fix by doing the same permission checking as for the "times == NULL" case.
Thanks to Michael Kerrisk, whose utimensat-non-conformances-and-fixes.patch in

This changes time_freq to a 64bit value and makes it static (the only outside
user had no real need to modify it). Intermediate values were already 64bit,
so the change isn't that big, but it saves a little in shifts by replacing

This adds a few more things from the ntp nanokernel related to user space.
It's now possible to select the resolution used of some values via STA_NANO
and the kernel reports in which mode it works (pll/fll).
If some values for adjtimex() are outside the acceptable range, they are now
simply normalized instead of letting the syscall fail. I removed
MOD_CLKA/MOD_CLKB as the mapping didn't really makes any sense, the kernel
doesn't support setting the clock.

x86 is the only arch right now, which provides an optimized for
div_long_long_rem and it has the downside that one has to be very careful that
the divide doesn't overflow.
The API is a little akward, as the arguments for the unsigned divide are
signed. The signed version also doesn't handle a negative divisor and
produces worse code on 64bit archs.
There is little incentive to keep this API alive, so this converts the few
users to the new API.

The current do_div doesn't explicitly say that it's unsigned and the signed
counterpart is missing, which is e.g. needed when dealing with time values.
This introduces 64bit signed/unsigned divide functions which also attempts to
cleanup the somewhat awkward calling API, which often requires the use of
temporary variables for the dividend. To avoid the need for temporary
variables everywhere for the remainder, each divide variant also provides a
version which doesn't return the remainder.
Each architecture can now provide optimized versions of these function,
otherwise generic fallback implementations will be used.
As an example I provided an alternative for the current x86 divide, which
avoids the asm casts and using an union allows gcc to generate better code.
It also avoids the upper divde in a few more cases, where the result is known
(i.e. upper quotient is zero).

currently cpu hotplug (unplug) seems broken on s390 and likely others. On cpu
unplug the system starts to behave very strange and hangs.
I bisected the problem to the following commit:
commit 48f20a9a94
Author: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>
Date: Tue Mar 4 15:23:25 2008 -0800
tasklets: execute tasklets in the same order they were queued
Reverting this patch seems to fix the problem. I looked into takeover_tasklet
and it seems that there is a way to corrupt the tail pointer of the current
cpu. If the tasklet list of the frozen cpu is empty, the tail pointer of the
current cpu points to the address of the head pointer of the stopped cpu and
not to the next pointer of a tasklet_struct.
This patch avoids the list splice of the list is empty and cpu hotplug seems
to work as the tail pointer is not corrupted. Olof, can you look into that
patch and ACK/NACK it so Andrew can push this to Linus, if appropriate?
Please note that some lines are longer than 80 chars, but line-wrapping looked
worse that this version.

When I backed out of using the generic sg chaining (as it isn't currently
portable) and introduced scatterwalk_sg_chain/scatterwalk_sg_next I left
out the sg_is_last check in the latter. This causes it to potentially
dereference beyond the end of the sg array.
As most uses of scatterwalk_sg_next are bound by an overall length, this
only affected the chaining code in authenc and eseqiv. Thanks to Patrick
McHardy for identifying this problem.
This patch also clears the "last" bit on the head of the chained list as
it's no longer last. This also went missing in scatterwalk_sg_chain and

We have a race between fcntl() and close() that can lead to
dnotify_struct inserted into inode's list *after* the last descriptor
had been gone from current->files.
Since that's the only point where dnotify_struct gets evicted, we are
screwed - it will stick around indefinitely. Even after struct file in
question is gone and freed. Worse, we can trigger send_sigio() on it at
any later point, which allows to send an arbitrary signal to arbitrary
process if we manage to apply enough memory pressure to get the page
that used to host that struct file and fill it with the right pattern...

So Ingo finally did figure out why UML broke with this option: UML
passes gcc the -fno-unit-at-a-time flag, and apparently that wreaks
havoc with gcc's inlining.
We could turn off -fno-unit-at-a-time for UML for gcc4+ (which is what
x86 does), but there's bad blood about this whole option, and it does
show that the thing is just fragile as heck.
So let tempers cool, and disable the thing, and we can revisit the
decision later.

According to Coverity (kudo's to Adrian Bunk), we had one use-before-check
bug in libe libertas driver. This patch fixes this issue.

This fixes operation of dual-PHY (A/B/G) devices.
Do not anounce the A-PHY to mac80211, as that's not supported, yet.

Looks like 5d2cdcd4e8 ("mac80211: get a
TKIP phase key from skb") got the shifts wrong.
Noticed by sparse:
