      [PATCH] do not use shared extable code for ia64 · 160c2d70
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Jes Sorensen <jes@trained-monkey.org>
      
      The new sort_extable and shared search_extable code doesn't work on ia64.
      I have introduced two new #defines that archs can define to avoid the
      common code being built.  ARCH_HAS_SEARCH_EXTABLE and
      ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE.

      [PATCH] afs: avoid ifdef inside macro expansion · deb5639c
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
      
      Eliminate the printing of the cache token if present: using cpp
      conditionals inside macro expansions is not legal and some gcc's fail it.

      [PATCH] NFS/RPC modprobe -r sunrpc causes an oops · d54eb723
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Steve Dickson <SteveD@redhat.com>
      
      Here is a patch for the 2.6.1 kernel that fixes an oops that occurs when
      the sunrpc module is unloaded.
      
      The problem was the RPC cache_register() call was not saving entry pointers
      to the procfs entries it was creating.  So when it came time to dismantle
      the entires, a BUG_ON() was tripped in remove_proc_entry() since the tree
      was not broken down completely.

      [PATCH] reiserfs: cleanup_bitmap_list() check for NULL argument. · 1c779e42

      fs/reiserfs/journal.c:cleanup_bitmap_list() can be called to cleanup
      reiserfs_list_bitmap that was only partly initialized. Check that
      jb->bitmaps array was actually allocated, before trying to free its

      [PATCH] exception table search fix · 8283a979
      Andrew Morton authored
      The exception table search code currently fails if addresses differ by more
      than 2G.  This is only a problem when using the 4g/4g address space split,
      but it's more robust this way.
      
      Also, shuffle the comparison order n there so the least likely case comes
      last.

      Viro and Andi Kleen agreed.  The <flags> argument isn't used at all and
      cannot be used safely in the future.
      
      remove third arg <long flags> from all 3 fs/stat.c stat64() calls since
      it's not used and there's no way to use it safely;

        - return -ERESTARTSYS from ci_ll_read/write() if interrupted
      
        - use time_after() for timeouts
      
        - added some comments about firmware interface
      
        - removed some unused fields from struct av7110, retabbing

          short periods of time later

      [PATCH] pc300_tty.c is broken · e6c3a678
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Russell King <rmk+lkml@arm.linux.org.uk>
      
      Russell was unable to correctly migrate this driver to the new
      modem-control-signal API because
      
       TIOCMBIS/TIOCMBIC do not control only the DTR signal, but also the RTS,
       OUT1 and OUT2 signals, or even maybe nothing at all.  Plus, these IOCTLs
       are no longer passed down to the driver.  Instead, drivers should
       implement tiocmget and tiocmset driver methods.
      
      so mark it as broken so as to not break allmodconfig/allyesconfig.

      sendfile supports reading from a given start offset for in_file, like
      pread.  But for the locks_verify_area call, in_file->f_pos is always used,
      even if a start offset is used.  Result: wrong area is checked for
      mandatory locks.

      [PATCH] Default hooks protecting the XATTR_SECURITY_PREFIX namespace · 3ba6fffc
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Chris Wright <chrisw@osdl.org>
      
      Add default hooks for both the dummy and capability code to protect the
      XATTR_SECURITY_PREFIX namespace.  These EAs were fully accessible to
      unauthorized users, so a user that rebooted from an SELinux kernel to a
      default kernel would leave those critical EAs unprotected.
