The adt746x driver currently adds a "°C" suffix to temperatures exposed via
sysfs, and I don't like that.  First, we all agree that any other unit here
makes no sense (do we ?  do we ?  yes of course :) and I don't like having
anything but numbers in there, and finally it's more consistent with what
the g5 driver does.

And finally, the _REAL_ reason is that this is not a low ASCII character
and so has nothing to do in the kernel sources or in /sys :)

Unfortunately, generating a patch here is nasty because of that (my mailer
is rightfully complaining about the non-ASCII char on text import) so you
might have to apply by hand...

Here's a patch to fix a bug in compat_sys_fcntl64 in fs/compat.c.  The bug
occurs with a 32 bit app that calls fcntl and checking for a lock near the
end of a file.

    struct flock sflp;
    sflp.l_start = 2147483345;
    sflp.l_len = 302;
    /* 2147483345 + 302 == 2147483647 (this should not overflow 31 bits) */
    /* 2^31 ==             2147483648 */
    fcntl_stat = fcntl(fd, F_GETLK, &sflp);

The patch also contains a fix to handle l_len < 0 which is now defined in
POSIX 1003.1-2001 from the fcntl man page.

reiserfs_set_xattr() explicitly updates the ctime for the host inode.

This works for direct setfacl/setfattr calls, but for the more common case
of an inherited default ACL, it breaks.  The ACL is inherited in the middle
of the new inode creation, before the inode has been hashed.

When mark_inode_dirty is called, one of the checks bails out if the inode
is unhashed -- but AFTER inode->i_state is updated, so the inode is marked
dirty but never placed on any dirty list.

Since the inode is never placed on a dirty list, __sync_single_inode from
the writeback_inodes() path can never be called on it to clear the dirty
flags.  Once the inode is hashed and mark_inode_dirty is called for it
again, it's too late -- it will bail early assuming (correctly) that the
inode is already marked dirty.  This ultimately results in I/O stalls that
can't be resolved by the fs path, only be the memory allocation path that
uses pages directly.

The attached patch makes the update of the ctime conditional on the inode
being hashed already.

This patch fixes race in writeback_inodes() described below:

writeback_inodes()
{
     ....
     sb->s_count++;
     spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
     ....
     spin_lock(&sb_lock);
     if (__put_super(sb))        <<< X
         goto restart;
     }
}

deactivate_super()
{
     fs->kill_sb(s);
         kill_block_super(sb)
             generic_shutdown_super(sb)
                     spin_lock(&sb_lock);
                     list_del(&sb->s_list);    <<< Y
                     spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
     ....
     put_super(s);
             spin_lock(&sb_lock);
             __put_super(sb);            <<< Z
             spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
}

The problem with it is that writeback_inodes() supposes that if
__put_super() returns 0 then no super block was deleted from the list and
we can safely traverse sb list further.

But as it is obvious from the deactivate_super() it's not actually true.
because at point Y we delete super block from the list and drop the lock.
We do __put_super() very much later...  So we can find sb with poisoned
sb->s_list at point X and we won't be the last sb reference holders.  The
last reference will be dropped in point Z.

So in case of the following sequence of execution Y -> X -> Z we'll get an
oops after point X in writeback_inodes().

This patch introduces __put_super_and_need_restart() function which allows
safe traversing of sb list.  I'll send a couple of patches later which
remove O(n^2) algos and using this function.
