We noticed that recent kernels didn't boot on our 1GHz Canyonlands 460EX boards anymore. As it seems, patch 8d165db1 [powerpc: Improve decrementer accuracy] introduced this problem.

2010-01-13ipv6: skb_dst() can be NULL in ipv6_hop_jumbo().David S. Miller
This fixes CERT-FI FICORA #341748 Discovered by Olli Jarva and Tuomo Untinen from the CROSS project at Codenomicon Ltd. Just like in CVE-2007-4567, we can't rely upon skb_dst() being non-NULL at this point. We fixed that in commit e76b2b2567b83448c2ee85a896433b96150c92e6 ("[IPV6]: Do no rely on skb->dst before it is assigned.") However commit 483a47d2fe794328d29950fe00ce26dd405d9437 ("ipv6: added net argument to IP6_INC_STATS_BH") put a new version of the same bug into this function. Complicating analysis further, this bug can only trigger when network namespaces are enabled in the build. When namespaces are turned off, the dev_net() does not evaluate it's argument, so the dereference would not occur. So, for a long time, namespaces couldn't be turned on unless SYSFS was disabled. Therefore, this code has largely been disabled except by people turning it on explicitly for namespace development. With help from Eugene Teo <eugene@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-01-13tg3: Fix std rx prod ring handlingMatt Carlson
There are some tg3 devices that require the driver to post new rx buffers in smaller increments. Commit 4361935afe3abc3e5a93006b99197fac1fabbd50, "tg3: Consider rx_std_prod_idx a hw mailbox" changed how the driver tracks the rx producer ring updates, but it does not make any special considerations for the above-mentioned devices. For those devices, it is possible for the driver to hit the special case path, which updates the hardware mailbox register but skips updating the shadow software mailbox member. If the special case path represents the final mailbox update for this ISR iteration, the hardware and software mailbox values will be out of sync. Ultimately, this will cause the driver to use a stale mailbox value on the next iteration, which will appear to the hardware as a large rx buffer update. Bad things ensue. The fix is to update the software shadow mailbox member when the special case path is taken.
