x86_64 nvidia_bugs() broke when we bailed out on not finding the HPET.
However, the quirk works by checking for _not_ finding the HPET...Delete the nvidia_hpet_detected flag and simply test for
not finding the HPET, which is simple to do now that
acpi_table_parse returns 1 on failure.Signed-off-by: Len Brown

Do netif_carrier_on() right after the IPv4 broadcast multicast group
is joined, rather than waiting for all of the initial set of multicast
group joins to finish. This allows at least IPv4 traffic to limp
along on broken fabrics where not all multicast groups can be joined.Signed-off-by: Shirley Ma

For 2.6.20 it mostly used to just not work, for 2.6.21-rc it crashes, this
seems to be down to luck (bad or good). The libata-acpi code needs to
avoid doing PCI work on non-PCI devices. This is one hack although it's
not pretty and perhaps there is a "right" way to check if a struct device

In my previous x86_64 thread fix, I forgot to initialize thread.arch.fs in
arch_prctl. A process calling arch_prctl to set %fs would lose it on the
next context switch.It also turns out that you can switch to a process which is in the process
of exiting and which has lost its mm. In this case, it's worse than
useless to try to call arch_prctl on the host process.Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike

IA64 and ARM-OABI are currently using their own version of epoll compat_
code.An architecture needs epoll_event translation if alignof(u64) in 32 bit
mode is different from alignof(u64) in 64 bit mode. If an architecture
needs epoll_event translation, it must define struct compat_epoll_event in
asm/compat.h and set CONFIG_HAVE_COMPAT_EPOLL_EVENT and use
compat_sys_epoll_ctl and compat_sys_epoll_wait.All 64 bit architecture should use compat_sys_epoll_pwait.

of compat_sys_epoll_pwait, use __put_user_unaligned]Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell

[Bluetooth] Fix socket locking in hci_sock_dev_event()
hci_sock_dev_event() uses bh_lock_sock() to lock the socket lock.
This is not deadlock-safe against locking of the same socket lock in
l2cap_connect_cfm() from softirq context. In addition to that,
hci_sock_dev_event() doesn't seem to be called from softirq context,
so it is safe to use lock_sock()/release_sock() instead.The lockdep warning can be triggered on my T42p simply by switching
the Bluetooth off by the keyboard button.=================================

Also PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS should be accepted, as done by kernel/ptrace.c
and forced by binary compatibility. UML/32bit breaks because of this -
since it is wise enough to use PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS to be binary compatible
with 2.4 host kernels.Until 2.6.17 (commit f0f2d6536e3515b5b1b7ae97dc8f176860c8c2ce) we had:
default:
return sys_ptrace(request, pid, addr, data);Instead here we have:
case PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA:
case ...:
return sys_ptrace(request, pid, addr, data);default:
return -EINVAL;This change was a style change - when a case is added, it must be
explicitly tested this way. In this case, not enough testing was done.Cc: Andi Kleen

Since both UML consoles do not use percpu variables, they may be called when
the cpu is still offline, and they may be marked CON_ANYTIME (this is
documented in kernel/printk.c, grep for CON_ANYTIME to find mentions of this).Works well in testing done with lock debug enabled, should be safe but is not
needed for next release.This would probably help also stderr_console.c, but this is yet to test.

One change introduced by the workqueue removal patch is that adding an
interface that is up to a bridge which is also up does not ever call
br_stp_enable_port(), leaving the port in DISABLED state until we do
ifconfig down and up or link events occur.The following patch to the br_add_if function fixes it.

pfkey_spdget neither had an LSM security hook nor auditing for the

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller -
The security hooks to check permissions to remove an xfrm_policy were
actually done after the policy was removed. Since the unlinking and
deletion are done in xfrm_policy_by* functions this moves the hooks
inside those 2 functions. There we have all the information needed to
do the security check and it can be done before the deletion. Since
auditing requires the result of that security check err has to be passed
back and forth from the xfrm_policy_by* functions.This patch also fixes a bug where a deletion that failed the security
check could cause improper accounting on the xfrm_policy
(xfrm_get_policy didn't have a put on the exit path for the hold taken
by xfrm_policy_by*)It also fixes the return code when no policy is found in
xfrm_add_pol_expire. In old code (at least back in the 2.6.18 days) err
wasn't used before the return when no policy is found and so the
initialization would cause err to be ENOENT. But since err has since
been used above when we don't get a policy back from the xfrm_policy_by*
function we would always return 0 instead of the intended ENOENT. Also
fixed some white space damage in the same area.Signed-off-by: Eric Paris
