[ 01/11] Dove: Attempt to fix PMU/RTC interrupts

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Russell King - ARM Linux <linux@arm.linux.org.uk>

commit 5d3df935426271016b895aecaa247101b4bfa35e upstream.

Fix the acknowledgement of PMU interrupts on Dove: some Dove hardware
has not been sensibly designed so that interrupts can be handled in a
race free manner.  The PMU is one such instance.

The pending (aka 'cause') register is a bunch of RW bits, meaning that
these bits can be both cleared and set by software (confirmed on the
Armada-510 on the cubox.)

Hardware sets the appropriate bit when an interrupt is asserted, and
software is required to clear the bits which are to be processed.  If
we write ~(1 << bit), then we end up asserting every other interrupt
except the one we're processing.  So, we need to do a read-modify-write
cycle to clear the asserted bit.

However, any interrupts which occur in the middle of this cycle will
also be written back as zero, which will also clear the new interrupts.

The upshot of this is: there is _no_ way to safely clear down interrupts
in this register (and other similarly behaving interrupt pending
registers on this device.)  The patch below at least stops us creating
new interrupts.

[ 02/11] Dove: Fix irq_to_pmu()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Russell King - ARM Linux <linux@arm.linux.org.uk>

commit d356cf5a74afa32b40decca3c9dd88bc3cd63eb5 upstream.

PMU interrupts start at IRQ_DOVE_PMU_START, not IRQ_DOVE_PMU_START + 1.
Fix the condition.  (It may have been less likely to occur had the code
been written "if (irq >= IRQ_DOVE_PMU_START" which imho is the easier
to understand notation, and matches the normal way of thinking about
these things.)

[ 03/11] mm/vmemmap: fix wrong use of virt_to_page

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jianguo Wu <wujianguo@huawei.com>

commit ae64ffcac35de0db628ba9631edf8ff34c5cd7ac upstream.

I enable CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL and CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, when doing
memory hotremove, there is a kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/physaddr.c:20.

It is caused by free_section_usemap()->virt_to_page(), virt_to_page() is
only used for kernel direct mapping address, but sparse-vmemmap uses
vmemmap address, so it is going wrong here.

[ 04/11] mm: soft offline: split thp at the beginning of soft_offline_page()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com>

commit 783657a7dc20e5c0efbc9a09a9dd38e238a723da upstream.

When we try to soft-offline a thp tail page, put_page() is called on the
tail page unthinkingly and VM_BUG_ON is triggered in put_compound_page().

This patch splits thp before going into the main body of soft-offlining.

A rescue thread exiting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE can lead to a task scheduling
off, never to be seen again.  In the case where this occurred, an exiting
thread hit reiserfs homebrew conditional resched while holding a mutex,
bringing the box to its knees.

[ 06/11] Revert "sched, autogroup: Stop going ahead if autogroup is disabled"

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de>

commit fd8ef11730f1d03d5d6555aa53126e9e34f52f12 upstream.

This reverts commit 800d4d30c8f20bd728e5741a3b77c4859a613f7c.

Between commits 8323f26ce342 ("sched: Fix race in task_group()") and
800d4d30c8f2 ("sched, autogroup: Stop going ahead if autogroup is
disabled"), autogroup is a wreck.

With both applied, all you have to do to crash a box is disable
autogroup during boot up, then reboot..  boom, NULL pointer dereference
due to commit 800d4d30c8f2 not allowing autogroup to move things, and
commit 8323f26ce342 making that the only way to switch runqueues:

[ 07/11] [PATCH 3.0.y] route: release dst_entry.hh_cache when handling redirects

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz>

Stable-3.0 commit 42ab5316 (ipv4: fix redirect handling) was
backport of mainline commit 9cc20b26 from 3.2-rc3 where hh
member of struct dst_entry was already gone.

However, in 3.0 we still have it and we have to clean it as
well, otherwise it keeps pointing to the cleaned up (and
unusable) hh_cache entry and packets cannot be sent out.

[ 09/11] i915: Quirk no_lvds on Gigabyte GA-D525TUD ITX motherboard

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Calvin Walton <calvin.walton@kepstin.ca>

commit a51d4ed01e5bb39d2cf36a12f9976ab08872c192 upstream.

This board is incorrectly detected as having an LVDS connector,
resulting in the VGA output (the only available output on the board)
showing the console only in the top-left 1024x768 pixels, and an extra
LVDS connector appearing in X.

It's a desktop Mini-ITX board using an Atom D525 CPU with an NM10
chipset.

I've had this board for about a year, but this is the first time I
noticed the issue because I've been running it headless for most of its
life.

[ 11/11] scsi: Silence unnecessary warnings about ioctl to partition

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

commit 6d9359280753d2955f86d6411047516a9431eb51 upstream.

Sometimes, warnings about ioctls to partition happen often enough that they
form majority of the warnings in the kernel log and users complain. In some
cases warnings are about ioctls such as SG_IO so it's not good to get rid of
the warnings completely as they can ease debugging of userspace problems
when ioctl is refused.

Since I have seen warnings from lots of commands, including some proprietary
userspace applications, I don't think disallowing the ioctls for processes
with CAP_SYS_RAWIO will happen in the near future if ever. So lets just
stop warning for processes with CAP_SYS_RAWIO for which ioctl is allowed.

This kernel can be built and boot without any problem.
Building a kernel with this kernel also works fine.

 - Build Machine: debian wheezy x86_64
   CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz x 4
   memory: 8GB

 - Test machine: debian wheezy x86_64(KVM guest on the Build Machine)
   vCPU: x2
   memory: 2GB

I reviewed the following patches and it looks good to me.
