This reverts the parent commit. I hate doing that, but it's generating
some discussion ("half of it is right"), and since I am planning on
doing the 2.6.38 release later today we can punt it to stable if
required. Let's not rock the boat right now.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

oom_kill_process() starts with victim_points == 0. This means that
(most likely) any child has more points and can be killed erroneously.Also, "children has a different mm" doesn't match the reality, we should
check child->mm != t->mm. This check is not exactly correct if t->mm ==
NULL but this doesn't really matter, oom_kill_task() will kill them
anyway.Note: "Kill all processes sharing p->mm" in oom_kill_task() is wrong
too.Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov

Since commit 32fd6901 (MIPS: Alchemy: get rid of common/reset.c)
Alchemy-based boards use their own reset function. For MTX-1 and XXS1500,
the reset function pokes at the BCSR.SYSTEM_RESET register, but this does
not work. According to Bruno Randolf, this was not tested when written.Previously, the generic au1000_restart() routine called the board specific
reset function, which for MTX-1 and XXS1500 did not work, but finally made
a jump to the reset vector, which really triggers a system restart. Fix
reboot for both targets by jumping to the reset vector.Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli

When au1000_eth probes the MII bus for PHY address, if we do not set
au1000_eth platform data's phy_search_highest_address, the MII probing
logic will exit early and will assume a valid PHY is found at address 0.
For MTX-1, the PHY is at address 31, and without this patch, the link

To avoid forking usermode thread when creating an idle task, move fork_idle
to a work queue.If kernel starts with maxcpus= option which does not bring all available
cpus online at boot time, idle tasks for offline cpus are not created. If
later offline cpus are hotplugged through sysfs, __cpu_up is called in
the context of the user task, and fork_idle copies its non-zero mm
pointer. This causes BUG() in per_cpu_trap_init.This also avoids issues with resource limits of the CPU writing to sysfs,
containers, maybe others.Signed-off-by: Maksim Rayskiy

ARM: 6205/1: perf: ensure counter delta is treated as unsignedHardware performance counters on ARM are 32-bits wide but atomic64_t
variables are used to represent counter data in the hw_perf_event structure.The armpmu_event_update function right-shifts a signed 64-bit delta variable
and adds the result to the event count. This can lead to shifting in sign-bits
if the MSB of the 32-bit counter value is set. This results in perf output
such as:Performance counter stats for 'sleep 20':

Ignore events that are in off/error state or belong to a different PMU.
This patch originates from the following commit for ARM by Will Deacon:
- 65b4711ff513767341aa1915c822de6ec0de65cb
ARM: 6352/1: perf: fix event validationThe validate_event function in the ARM perf events backend has the
following problems:1.) Events that are disabled count towards the cost.
2.) Events associated with other PMUs [for example, software events or
breakpoints] do not count towards the cost, but do fail validation,
causing the group to fail.This patch changes validate_event so that it ignores events in the
PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF state or that are scheduled for other PMUs.Acked-by: Will Deacon

This is the MIPS part of the following commits by Peter Zijlstra:
- a4eaf7f14675cb512d69f0c928055e73d0c6d252
perf: Rework the PMU methodsReplace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with
pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument.The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while
keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with
the generic stopped state.This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
code paths (like IRQ handlers).It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
how the architecture implemented the throttled state:1) We disable the counter:
a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events
For MIPSXX, the stopped state is implemented in the way of 1.b as above.

This is the MIPS part of the following commit by Peter Zijlstra:
- e360adbe29241a0194e10e20595360dd7b98a2b3
irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacksProvide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.For MIPSXX, we need to call irq_work_run() at the tail of the perf IRQ
handler as described above.Reported-by: Wu Zhangjin

The old prepare_ftrace_return() for MIPS is confused and have introduced
some problem. This patch cleans up the names of the arguments, variables
and related functions.For MIPS, the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not really the
'selfpc' described in ftrace-design.txt but instead it is the self
return address. This did break the compatibility of the generic
interface but really reduced one unneeded calculation for to get the
current function name, the parent return address and the self return
address are enough, no need to tranform the self return address to the
self address.But set_graph_function of function graph tracer is an exception, it does
need the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() as 'selfpc', for it
will use 'selfpc' to match user's configuration of function graph
entries, but in reality, it doesn't need the 'selfpc' but the recorded
ip address of the mcount calling site in the __mcount_loc section. So,
the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not important, the real
requirement is the right recorded ip address should be calculated and
assign to trace.func, this will be fixed in the next patches.Reported-by: Zhiping Zhong

The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices.
The code for evaluating OSF partitions contains a bug that leaks data
from kernel heap memory to userspace for certain corrupted OSF
partitions.In more detail:
for (i = 0 ; i < le16_to_cpu(label->d_npartitions); i++, partition++) {
iterates from 0 to d_npartitions - 1, where d_npartitions is read from
the partition table without validation and partition is a pointer to an
array of at most 8 d_partitions.Add the proper and obvious validation.
