    [PATCH] IB/mthca: max_inline_data handling tweaks
    
    Fix a case where copying max_inline_data from a successful create_qp
    capabilities output to create_qp input could cause EINVAL error:
    
    mthca_set_qp_size must check max_inline_data directly against
    max_desc_sz; checking qp->sq.max_gs is wrong since max_inline_data
    depends on the qp type and does not involve max_sg.

    sd: fix memory corruption with broken mode page headers
    
    There's a problem in sd where we blindly believe the length of the
    headers and block descriptors.  Some devices return insane values for
    these and cause our length to end up greater than the actual buffer
    size, so check to make sure.

    [PATCH] Fix a severe bug
    
    netlink overrun was broken while improvement of netlink.
    Destination socket is used in the place where it was meant to be source socket,
    so that now overrun is never sent to user netlink sockets, when it should be,
    and it even can be set on kernel socket, which results in complete deadlock
    of rtnetlink.
    
    Suggested fix is to restore status quo passing source socket as additional
    argument to netlink_attachskb().
    
    A little explanation: overrun is set on a socket, when it failed
    to receive some message and sender of this messages does not or even
    have no way to handle this error. This happens in two cases:
    1. when kernel sends something. Kernel never retransmits and cannot
       wait for buffer space.
    2. when user sends a broadcast and the message was not delivered
       to some recipients.

    Only scan I2C address 0x2d. This is the default address and no IT87xxF

    [PATCH] fix deadlock in ext2
    
    Fix a deadlock possible in the ext2 file system implementation.  This
    deadlock occurs when a file is removed from an ext2 file system which was
    mounted with the "sync" mount option.
    
    The problem is that ext2_xattr_delete_inode() was invoking the routine,
    sync_dirty_buffer(), using a buffer head which was previously locked via
    lock_buffer().  The first thing that sync_dirty_buffer() does is to lock
    the buffer head that it was passed.  It does this via lock_buffer().  Oops.
    
    The solution is to unlock the buffer head in ext2_xattr_delete_inode()
    before invoking sync_dirty_buffer().  This makes the code in
    ext2_xattr_delete_inode() obey the same locking rules as all other callers
    of sync_dirty_buffer() in the ext2 file system implementation.

    [PATCH] sys_signal: initialize ->sa_mask
    
    Pointed out by Linus Torvalds.
    
    sys_signal() forgets to initialize ->sa_mask.
    
    ( I suspect arch/ia64/ia32/ia32_signal.c:sys32_signal()
      also needs this fix )

    [PATCH] Address autoconfiguration does not work after device down/up cycle
    
    If you set network interface down and up again, the IPv6 address
    autoconfiguration does not work. 'ip addr' shows that the link-local
    address is in tentative state. We don't even react to periodical router
    advertisements.
    
    During NETDEV_DOWN we clear IF_READY, and we don't set it back in
    NETDEV_UP. While starting to perform DAD on the link-local address, we
    notice that the device is not in IF_READY, and we abort autoconfiguration
    process (which would eventually send router solicitations).

    Recursive SKB frag lists are really possible and disallowing

    [PATCH] reiserfs: disable automatic enabling of reiserfs inode attributes
    
    Unfortunately, the reiserfs_attrs_cleared bit in the superblock flag can
    lie.  File systems have been observed with the bit set, yet still contain
    garbage in the stat data field, causing unpredictable results.
    
    This patch backs out the enable-by-default behavior.
    
    It eliminates the changes from: d50a5cd860ce721dbeac6a4f3c6e42abcde68cd8,

    [PATCH] hugetlbfs mmap ENOMEM failure
    
    2.6.15's hugepage faulting introduced huge_pages_needed accounting into
    hugetlbfs: to count how many pages are already in cache, for spot check
    on how far a new mapping may be allowed to extend the file.  But it's
    muddled: each hugepage found covers HPAGE_SIZE, not PAGE_SIZE.  Once
    pages were already in cache, it would overshoot, wrap its hugepages
    count backwards, and so fail a harmless repeat mapping with -ENOMEM.
    Fixes the problem found by Don Dupuis.

    [PATCH] i386: Move phys_proc_id/early intel workaround to correct function
    
    early_cpu_detect only runs on the BP, but this code needs to run
    on all CPUs. This will fix problems with the powernow-k8 driver
    on dual core systems and general misdetection of AMD dual core.
    
    Looks like a mismerge somewhere.  Also add a warning comment.

    2.5.15.4 removed has_bridge_parent, however this symbol is still
    called with NETFILTER_DEBUG is enabled.
    
    This patch uses the already seeded realoutdev value to detect if a parent
    exists, and if so, the value of the parent.

    [PATCH] shmdt cannot detach not-alined shm segment cleanly.
    
    sys_shmdt() can manage shm segments which are covered by multiple vmas.  (This
    can happen when a user uses mprotect() after shmat().)
    
    This works well if shm is aligned to PAGE_SIZE, but if not, the last
    segment cannot be detached.  It is because a comparison in sys_shmdt()
    
    	(vma->vm_end - addr) < size
    		addr == return address of shmat()
    		size == shmsize, argments to shmget()
    
    size should be aligned to PAGE_SIZE before being compared with vma->vm_end,
    which is aligned.

    [PATCH] ppc32: Put cache flush routines back into .relocate_code section
    
    In 2.6.14, we had the following definition of _GLOBAL() in
    include/asm-ppc/processor.h:
    
    #define _GLOBAL(n)\
            .stabs __stringify(n:F-1),N_FUN,0,0,n;\
            .globl n;\
    n:
    
    In 2.6.15, as part of the great powerpc merge, we moved this definition to
    include/asm-powerpc/ppc_asm.h, where it appears (to 32-bit code) as:
    
    #define _GLOBAL(n)      \
            .text;          \
            .stabs __stringify(n:F-1),N_FUN,0,0,n;\
            .globl n;       \
    n:
    
    Mostly, this is fine.  However, we also have the following, in
    arch/ppc/boot/common/util.S:
    
            .section ".relocate_code","xa"
    [...]
    _GLOBAL(flush_instruction_cache)
    [...]
    _GLOBAL(flush_data_cache)
    [...]
    
    The addition of the .text section definition in the definition of
    _GLOBAL overrides the .relocate_code section definition.  As a result,
    these two functions don't end up in .relocate_code, so they don't get
    relocated correctly, and the boot fails.
    
    There's another suspicious-looking usage at kernel/swsusp.S:37 that
    someone should look into.  I did not exhaustively search the source
    tree, though.
    
    The following is the minimal patch that fixes the immediate problem.
    I could easily be convinced that the _GLOBAL definition should be
    modified to remove the ".text;" line either instead of, or in addition
    to, this fix.
