To prevent an NFS server from being used to create a directory loop in an NFS
superblock on the client, the following patch was committed:commit 1836750115f20b774e55c032a3893e8c5bdf41ed
Author: Al Viro
Date: Tue Jul 12 21:42:24 2011 -0400
Subject: fix loop checks in d_materialise_unique()This causes ELOOP to be reported to anyone trying to access the dentry that
would otherwise cause the kernel to complete the loop.However, no indication is given to the caller as to why an operation that ought
to work doesn't. The fault is with the kernel, which doesn't want to try and
solve the problem as it gets horrendously messy if there's another mountpoint
somewhere in the trees being spliced that can't be moved[*].[*] The real problem is that we don't handle the excision of a subtree that
gets moved _out_ of what we can see. This can happen on the server where a
directory is merely moved between two other dirs on the same filesystem, but
where destination dir is not accessible by the client.So, given the choice to return ELOOP rather than trying to reconfigure the
dentry tree, we should give the caller some indication of why they aren't being
allowed to make what should be a legitimate request and log a message.Signed-off-by: David Howells

Prevent tracing of preempt_disable() in get_cpu_var() in
kvm_clock_read(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled,
preempt_disable/enable() are traced and this causes the function_graph
tracer to go into an infinite recursion. By open coding the
preempt_disable() around the get_cpu_var(), we can use the notrace
version which prevents preempt_disable/enable() from being traced and
prevents the recursion.Based on a similar patch for Xen from Jeremy Fitzhardinge.

Newer versions of MINIX can create filesystems that allocate an extra
bitmap block. Mounting of this succeeds, but doing a statfs call will
result in an oops in count_free because of a negative number being used
for the bh index.Avoid this by verifying the number of allocated blocks at mount time,
erroring out if there are not enough and make statfs ignore the extras
if there are too many.This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18792

Dummy, non-zero definitions for HPAGE_MASK and HPAGE_SIZE were added in
51c6f666fceb ("mm: ZAP_BLOCK causes redundant work") to avoid a divide
by zero in generic kernel code.That code has since been removed, but probably should never have been
added in the first place: we don't want HPAGE_SIZE to act like PAGE_SIZE
for code that is working with hugepages, for example, when the
dependency on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE has not been fulfilled.Because hugepage size can differ from architecture to architecture, each
is required to have their own definitions for both HPAGE_MASK and
HPAGE_SIZE. This is always done in arch/*/include/asm/page.h.So, just remove the dummy and dangerous definitions since they are no
longer needed and reveals the correct dependencies. Tested on
architectures using the definitions with allyesconfig: x86 (even with
thp), hppa, mips, powerpc, s390, sh3, sh4, sparc, and sparc64, and with
defconfig on ia64.Signed-off-by: David Rientjes

Commit 2aede851ddf08666f68ffc17be446420e9d2a056
(PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory)
postponed the freezing of kernel threads to after preallocating memory
for hibernation. But while doing that, the hibernation test TEST_FREEZER
and the test mode HIBERNATION_TESTPROC were not moved accordingly.As a result, when using these test modes, it only goes upto the freezing of
userspace and exits, when in fact it should go till the complete end of task
freezing stage, namely the freezing of kernel threads as well.So, move these points of exit to appropriate places so that freezing of
kernel threads is also tested while using these test harnesses.Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat

commit f39925dbde77 (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in
inetpeer.) introduced a regression in ICMP redirect handling.It assumed ipv4_dst_check() would be called because all possible routes
were attached to the inetpeer we modify in ip_rt_redirect(), but thats
not true.commit 7cc9150ebe (route: fix ICMP redirect validation) tried to fix
this but solution was not complete. (It fixed only one route)So we must lookup existing routes (including different TOS values) and
call check_peer_redir() on them.Reported-by: Ivan Zahariev
