The new fsnotify infrastructure (starting at 90586523) causes an oops in spufs, where we populate a directory with files before instantiating the directory itself. The new changes seem to have introduced an assumption that a dentry's parent will be positive when instantiating. This change makes it once again possible to d_instantiate a dentry with a negative parent, and brings __fsnotify_d_instantiate() into line with inotify_d_instantiate(), which already has this NULL check.

While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames. With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[]. Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from different physical page. This patch is against the net-2.6 tree. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2.6.31-rc introduced an architecture level set checker based on facility bits. e.g. if the kernel is compiled to run only on z9, several facility bits are checked very early and the kernel refuses to boot if a z9 specific facility is missing. Until now kvm on s390 did not implement the store facility extended (STFLE) instruction. A 2.6.31-rc kernel that was compiled for z9 or higher did not boot in kvm. This patch implements stfle. This patch should go in before 2.6.31. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

When NAPI is disabled while we're in net_rx_action, we end up calling __napi_complete without flushing GRO packets. This is a bug as it would cause the GRO packets to linger, of course it also literally BUGs to catch error like this :) This patch changes it to napi_complete, with the obligatory IRQ reenabling. This should be safe because we've only just disabled IRQs and it does not materially affect the test conditions in between.

The mac80211 module uses rcu_call() thus it should use rcu_barrier() on module unload.
