ftrace faulted on writing [<ffffffffa00026db>]
__process_new_adapter+0x7/0x34 [i2c_core]
The cause was that the module text was set to read only before ftrace
could convert the calls to mcount to nops. Thus, the conversions failed
due to not being able to write to the text locations.
The simple fix is to move setting the module to read only after the
module notifiers are called (where ftrace sets the module mcounts to nops).

The IPS driver is designed to be able to run detached from i915 and
just not enable GPU turbo in that case, in order to avoid module
dependencies between the two drivers. This means that we don't know
what the load order between the two is going to be, and we had
previously only supported IPS after (optionally) i915, but not i915
after IPS. If the wrong order was chosen, you'd get no GPU turbo, and
something like half the possible graphics performance.

corruption
Our current handling of medium error assumes that data is returned up
to the bad sector. This assumption holds good for all disk devices,
all DIF arrays and most ordinary arrays. However, an LSI array engine
was recently discovered which reports a medium error without returning
any data. This means that when we report good data up to the medium
error, we've reported junk originally in the buffer as good. Worse,
if the read consists of requested data plus a readahead, and the error
occurs in readahead, we'll just strip off the readahead and report
junk up to userspace as good data with no error.
The fix for this is to have the error position computation take into
account the amount of data returned by the driver using the scsi
residual data. Unfortunately, not every driver fills in this data,
but for those who don't, it's set to zero, which means we'll think a
full set of data was transferred and the behaviour will be identical
to the prior behaviour of the code (believe the buffer up to the error
sector). All modern drivers seem to set the residual, so that should
fix up the LSI failure/corruption case.

The taskstats structure is internally aligned on 8 byte boundaries but the
layout of the aggregrate reply, with two NLA headers and the pid (each 4
bytes), actually force the entire structure to be unaligned. This causes
the kernel to issue unaligned access warnings on some architectures like
ia64. Unfortunately, some software out there doesn't properly unroll the
NLA packet and assumes that the start of the taskstats structure will
always be 20 bytes from the start of the netlink payload. Aligning the
start of the taskstats structure breaks this software, which we don't
want. So, for now the alignment only happens on architectures that
require it and those users will have to update to fixed versions of those
packages. Space is reserved in the packet only when needed. This ifdef
should be removed in several years e.g. 2012 once we can be confident
that fixed versions are installed on most systems. We add the padding
before the aggregate since the aggregate is already a defined type.
Commit 85893120 ("delayacct: align to 8 byte boundary on 64-bit systems")
previously addressed the alignment issues by padding out the pid field.
This was supposed to be a compatible change but the circumstances
described above mean that it wasn't. This patch backs out that change,
since it was a hack, and introduces a new NULL attribute type to provide
the padding. Padding the response with 4 bytes avoids allocating an
aligned taskstats structure and copying it back. Since the structure
weighs in at 328 bytes, it's too big to do it on the stack.

The current packed struct implementation of unaligned access adds the
packed attribute only to the field within the unaligned struct rather than
to the struct as a whole. This is not sufficient to enforce proper
behaviour on architectures with a default struct alignment of more than
one byte.
For example, the current implementation of __get_unaligned_cpu16 when
compiled for arm with gcc -O1 -mstructure-size-boundary=32 assumes the
struct is on a 4 byte boundary so performs the load of the 16bit packed
field as if it were on a 4 byte boundary:
__get_unaligned_cpu16:
ldrh r0, [r0, #0]
bx lr
Moving the packed attribute to the struct rather than the field causes the
proper unaligned access code to be generated:
__get_unaligned_cpu16:
ldrb r3, [r0, #0] @ zero_extendqisi2
ldrb r0, [r0, #1] @ zero_extendqisi2
orr r0, r3, r0, asl #8
bx lr

This happens when __logfs_create() tries to write a new inode to the disk
which is full.
__logfs_create() associates the transaction pointer with inode. During
the logfs_write_inode() function call chain this transaction pointer is
moved from inode to page->private using function move_inode_to_page
(do_write_inode() -> inode_to_page() -> move_inode_to_page)
When the write inode fails, the transaction is aborted and iput is called
on the failed inode. During delete_inode the same transaction pointer
associated with the page is getting used. Thus causing kernel BUG.
The patch checks for error in write_inode() and restores the page->private
to NULL.

do_logfs_journal_wl_pass() should use GFP_NOFS for memory allocation GC
code calls btree_insert32 with GFP_KERNEL while holding a mutex
super->s_write_mutex.
The same mutex is used in address_space_operations->writepage(), and a
call to writepage() could be triggered as a result of memory allocation
in btree_insert32, causing a deadlock.

and vmstat
When correlating ftrace results with /proc/vmstat, I noticed that the
reporting scripts value for "pages scanned" differed significantly. Both
values were "right" depending on how you look at it.
The difference is due to vmstat only counting scanning of the inactive
list towards pages scanned. The analysis script for the tracepoint counts
active and inactive list yielding a far higher value than vmstat. The
resulting scanning/reclaim ratio looks much worse. The tracepoint is ok
but this patch updates the reporting script so that the report values for
scanned are similar to vmstat.

The initialization function used by hci_open_dev (hci_init_req) sends
many different HCI commands. The __hci_request function should only
return when all of these commands have completed (or a timeout occurs).
Several of these commands cause hci_req_complete to be called which
causes __hci_request to return prematurely.
This patch fixes the issue by adding a new hdev->req_last_cmd variable
which is set during the initialization procedure. The hci_req_complete
function will no longer mark the request as complete until the command
matching hdev->req_last_cmd completes.
