There are no more users of procfs that implement the ioctl
callback. Drop the bkl from this path and warn on any use
of this callback.

Push down the bkl from procfs's ioctl main handler to its users.
Only three procfs users implement an ioctl (non unlocked) handler.
Turn them into unlocked_ioctl and push down the Devil inside.
v2: PDE(inode)->data doesn't need to be under bkl
v3: And don't forget to git-add the result
v4: Use wrappers to pushdown instead of an invasive and error prone
handlers surgery.

In fact it is now added to the hot key list when newt_form__new is used,
allowing us to remove the explicit assignment in all its users.
The visible change is that <- will exit the menu that pops up when -> is
pressed (and Enter when callchains are not being used).

The ACPI dependency moved to the TPM, where it belongs. Although
IMA per-se does not require access to the bios measurement log,
verifying the IMA boot aggregate does, which requires ACPI.

This patch pushes the ACPI dependency into the device driver code
itself. Now, even without ACPI/PNP enabled, the device can be registered
using the TIS specified memory space. This will however result in the
lack of access to the BIOS event log, being the only implication of such
ACPI removal.

This update handles a use case where pm_qos update requests need to
silently fail if the update is being sent to a handle that is NULL.
The problem was that the original pm_qos silently fails when a request
update is passed to a parameter that has not been added to the list yet.
This update restores that behavior.

Now we have a set of nested attributes:
IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED)
IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED)
IFLA_VF_MAC
IFLA_VF_VLAN
IFLA_VF_TX_RATE
This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired.
Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state.
The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like
something to consider for 2.6.34.

TCP MD5 support uses percpu data for temporary storage. It currently
disables preemption so that same storage cannot be reclaimed by another
thread on same cpu.
We also have to make sure a softirq handler wont try to use also same

In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register
are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases,
this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero
exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to
restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In
this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would
cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution
is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of
the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware
that the code is emulating.
This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes
to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words:
I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The
Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the
CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that
actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would
work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of
the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic
(which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't
necessarily writable.

Between "clean D line..." and "invalidate I line" operations in
v7_coherent_user_range(), the memory page may get swapped out.
And the fault on "invalidate I line" could not be properly handled
causing the oops.
In ARMv6 "external abort on linefetch" replaced by "instruction cache
maintenance fault". Let's handle it as translation fault. It fixes the
issue.
I'm not sure if it's reasonable to check arch version in run-time.
Let's do it in compile time for now.

This patch implements a driver for the specification:-
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ddi0424a/DDI0424A_dmac_pl330_r0p0_trm.pdf

The L310 cache controller's interface is almost identical
to the L210. One major difference is that the PL310 can
have up to 16 ways.
This change uses the cache's part ID and the Associativity
bits in the AUX_CTRL register to determine the number of ways.
Also, this version prints out the CACHE_ID and AUX_CTRL registers.

1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention;
we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously
shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it
right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting
upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and
i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry))
in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places
in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD
is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories
getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race
prevention.
2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash
the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed.
3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the
right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong)
one. Noticed and fixed.

At the same time it was found that p4_next_cntr
