We want interrupts disabled on all paths leading to RESTORE_ALL; otherwise, we are risking an IRQ coming between the updates of alpha_mv->hae_cache and *alpha_mv->hae_register and set_hae() within the IRQ getting badly confused. RESTORE_ALL used to play with disabling IRQ itself, but that got removed back in 2002, without making sure we had them disabled on all paths. It's cheaper to make sure we have them disabled than to revert to original variant... Remove the detritus left from that commit back in 2002; we used to need a reload of $0 and $1 since swpipl would change those, but doing that had become pointless when we stopped doing swpipl in there...

Thomas Pollet noticed that the remap_file_pages() system call in fremap.c has a potential overflow in the first part of the if statement below, which could cause it to process bogus input parameters. Specifically the pgoff + size parameters could be wrap thereby preventing the system call from failing when it should. Reported-by:

The SNDRV_HDSP_IOCTL_GET_CONFIG_INFO and SNDRV_HDSP_IOCTL_GET_CONFIG_INFO ioctls in hdspm.c and hdsp.c allow unprivileged users to read uninitialized kernel stack memory, because several fields of the hdsp{m}_config_info structs declared on the stack are not altered or zeroed before being copied back to the user. This patch takes care of it. Signed-off-by:

Add logic to prevent two I/O requests being merged if only one of them is a discard. Ditto secure discard. Without this fix, it is possible for write requests to transform into discard requests. For example: Submit bio 1 to discard 8 sectors from sector n Submit bio 2 to write 8 sectors from sector n + 16 Submit bio 3 to write 8 sectors from sector n + 8 Bio 1 becomes request 1. Bio 2 becomes request 2. Bio 3 is merged with request 2, and then subsequently request 2 is merged with request 1 resulting in just one I/O request which discards all 24 sectors. Signed-off-by:

This "bpt_code" instruction was killed off in our development line a while ago (the actual definition of bpt_code that is used is in kernel/traps.c) but I didn't push it for 2.6.36 because it seemed harmless and I didn't want to try to push more than absolutely necessary. However, we recently fixed a bug in our gcc that had been causing "-gdwarf2" not to be passed to the assembler, and passing this flag causes an erroneous assembler failure in the presence of code in a data section, sometimes. While we'd like to track down the bug in the assembler, we'd also like to make sure 2.6.36 builds with the current toolchain, so I'm removing this dead code as well. Signed-off-by:

Thomas Pollet points out that the 'end' variable is broken. It was computed based on start/size before they were page-aligned, and as such doesn't actually match any of the other actions we take. The overflow test on end was also redundant, since we had already tested it with the properly aligned version. So just get rid of it entirely. The one remaining use for that broken variable can just use 'start+size' like all the other cases already did. Reported-by:

Just like pkgtemp registers another core of the same package when one gets removed, coretemp should register another hyperthread (if available) in that situation. As pointed out in the patch fixing the respective code in pkgtemp, the list protectng mutex must be dropped before calling coretemp_device_add(), and due to the restructured loop (including an explicit return) the "safe" variant of the list iterator isn't needed anymore.

pkgtemp_device_remove(), holding the list protecting mutex, calls pkgtemp_device_add(), which itself wants to acquire the same mutex. Holding the mutex over the entire loop body in pkgtemp_device_remove() isn't really necessary, as long as the loop gets exited after processing the matched CPU. Once exiting the loop after removing an eventual match, there's no need for using the "safe" list iterator anymore. Signed-off-by:

In commit 0dca94ba the call to platform_driver_unregister() was made conditional upon !HOTPLUG_CPU, but the return value from coretemp_init() was left to indicate an error. This isn't correct, as the negative return value indicates to the module loader that initialization failed, which isn't intended here and results in dangling pointers. Signed-off-by:
