Oleg Nesterov spotted two interesting bugs with the current de_thread
code. The simplest is a long standing double decrement of
__get_cpu_var(process_counts) in __unhash_process. Caused by
two processes exiting when only one was created.
The other is that since we no longer detach from the thread_group list
it is possible for do_each_thread when run under the tasklist_lock to
see the same task_struct twice. Once on the task list as a
thread_group_leader, and once on the thread list of another
thread.
The double appearance in do_each_thread can cause a double increment
of mm_core_waiters in zap_threads resulting in problems later on in
coredump_wait.
To remedy those two problems this patch takes the simple approach
of changing the old thread group leader into a child thread.
The only routine in release_task that cares is __unhash_process,
and it can be trivially seen that we handle cleaning up a
thread group leader properly.
Since de_thread doesn't change the pid of the exiting leader process
and instead shares it with the new leader process. I change
thread_group_leader to recognize group leadership based on the
group_leader field and not based on pids. This should also be
slightly cheaper then the existing thread_group_leader macro.
I performed a quick audit and I couldn't see any user of
thread_group_leader that cared about the difference.

Patch from Catalin Marinas
This patch changes the double registers numbering to 0-15 from even 0-30,
in preparation for future VFP extensions. It also fixes the VFP_REG_ZERO
bug (value 16 actually represents the 8th double register with the original
numbering).
The original mcrr/mrrc on CP10 were generating FMRRS/FMSRR instead of
FMRRD/FMDRR. The patch changes to CP11 for the correct instructions.

Glibc interprets the HWCAP bits and decides on what features to use.
However, even if the features are present in the hardware, they are not
always supported by the kernel and hence the corresponding bits have to be

anymore, but the transition period from old EH where we needed it is

Rohit found an obscure bug causing buddy list corruption.
page_is_buddy is using a non-atomic test (PagePrivate && page_count == 0)
to determine whether or not a free page's buddy is itself free and in the
buddy lists.
Each of the conjuncts may be true at different times due to unrelated
conditions, so the non-atomic page_is_buddy test may find each conjunct to
be true even if they were not both true at the same time (ie. the page was
not on the buddy lists).

The PCI spec recommends against drivers playing with a device's PCI
read burst size, and says that systems software should configure it.
And we actually have users that report that changing it from the
default set by BIOS hurts performance and/or stability for them. On
the other hand, the Mellanox Programmer's Reference Manual recommends
turning it up all the way to the maximum value. Some tests conducted
here in the lab do not show performance improvement from this tuning,
but this might be just me.
As a work-around, make this tuning an option, off by default (safe
value), with an eye towards removing it completely one day if no one
complains.

Push translation of static rate to HCA format into low-level drivers,
where it belongs. For static rate encoding, use encoding of rate
field from IB standard PathRecord, with addition of value 0, for
backwards compatibility with current usage. The changes are:
- Add enum ib_rate to midlayer includes.
- Get rid of static rate translation in IPoIB; just use static rate
directly from Path and MulticastGroup records.
- Update mthca driver to translate absolute static rate into the
format used by hardware. This also fixes mthca's static rate
handling for HCAs that are capable of 4X DDR.

This fixes the problem of an oops occuring when a user attempts to add a
key to a non-keyring key [CVE-2006-1522].
The problem is that __keyring_search_one() doesn't check that the
keyring it's been given is actually a keyring.
I've fixed this problem by:
(1) declaring that caller of __keyring_search_one() must guarantee that
the keyring is a keyring; and
(2) making key_create_or_update() check that the keyring is a keyring,
and return -ENOTDIR if it isn't.
This can be tested by:
keyctl add user b b `keyctl add user a a @s`

add optional input and output offsets to sys_splice(), for seekable file
descriptors:
asmlinkage long sys_splice(int fd_in, loff_t __user *off_in,
int fd_out, loff_t __user *off_out,
size_t len, unsigned int flags);
semantics are straightforward: f_pos will be updated with the offset
provided by user-space, before the splice transfer is about to begin.
Providing a NULL offset pointer means the existing f_pos will be used
(and updated in situ). Providing an offset for a pipe results in
-ESPIPE. Providing an invalid offset pointer results in -EFAULT.

separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it
usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the
internal splice APIs and the pipe code:
- pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric
and more streamlined with existing kernel practices.
- splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice
methods

Speed up SRAM read and write functions if possible by using MMIO
instead of config. cycles. With this change, the post reset signature
done at the end of D3 power change must now be moved before the D3
power change.
IBM reported a problem on powerpc blades during ethtool self test that
was caused by the memory test taking excessively long. Config. cycles
are very slow on powerpc and the memory test can take more than 10
seconds to complete using config. cycles.
David Miller informed me that an earlier version of the patch caused
problems on sparc64 systems with built-in tg3 chips. This version
fixes the problem by excluding all SUN built-in tg3 chips from doing
MMIO SRAM access.
TG3_FLAG_EEPROM_WRITE_PROT is also set unconditionally when
TG3_FLG2_SUN_570X is set. This should be sane as all SUN chips are
built-in and do not require Vaux switching.
