sys_madvise has down_write of mmap_sem, then madvise_remove calls
vmtruncate_range which takes i_mutex and i_alloc_sem: no, we can easily devise
deadlocks from that ordering.
madvise_remove drop mmap_sem while calling vmtruncate_range: luckily, since
madvise_remove doesn't split or merge vmas, it's easy to handle this case with
a NULL prev, without restructuring sys_madvise. (Though sad to retake
mmap_sem when it's unlikely to be needed, and certainly down_read is
sufficient for MADV_REMOVE, unlike the other madvices.)

shmem_truncate_range has its own truncate_inode_pages_range, to free any pages
racily instantiated while it was in progress: a SHMEM_PAGEIN flag is set when
this might have happened. But holepunching gets no chance to clear that flag
at the start of vmtruncate_range, so it's always set (unless a truncate came
just before), so holepunch almost always does this second
truncate_inode_pages_range.
shmem holepunch has unlikely swap<->file races hereabouts whatever we do
(without a fuller rework than is fit for this release): I was going to skip
the second truncate in the punch_hole case, but Miklos points out that would
make holepunch correctness more vulnerable to swapoff. So keep the second
truncate, but follow it by an unmap_mapping_range to eliminate the
disconnected pages (freed from pagecache while still mapped in userspace) that
it might have left behind.

Miklos Szeredi observes that during truncation of shmem page directories,
info->lock is released to improve latency (after lowering i_size and
next_index to exclude races); but this is quite wrong for holepunching, which
receives no such protection from i_size or next_index, and is left vulnerable
to races with shmem_unuse, shmem_getpage and shmem_writepage.
Hold info->lock throughout when holepunching? No, any user could prevent
rescheduling for far too long. Instead take info->lock just when needed: in
shmem_free_swp when removing the swap entries, and whenever removing a
directory page from the level above. But so long as we remove before
scanning, we can safely skip taking the lock at the lower levels, except at
misaligned start and end of the hole.

Miklos Szeredi observes BUG_ON(!entry) in shmem_writepage() triggered in rare
circumstances, because shmem_truncate_range() erroneously removes partially
truncated directory pages at the end of the range: later reclaim on pages
pointing to these removed directories triggers the BUG. Indeed, and it can
also cause data loss beyond the hole.
Fix this as in the patch proposed by Miklos, but distinguish between "limit"
(how far we need to search: ignore truncation's next_index optimization in the
holepunch case - if there are races it's more consistent to act on the whole
range specified) and "upper_limit" (how far we can free directory pages:
generally we must be careful to keep partially punched pages, but can relax at
end of file - i_size being held stable by i_mutex).

Permit lvm to create logical volumes without crashing UML.
When device-mapper's DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD ioctl is called to create a new device,
dev_create()->dm_create()->alloc_dev()-> blk_queue_bounce_limit(md->queue,
BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) is called.
blk_queue_bounce_limit(BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) calls init_emergency_isa_pool() if
blk_max_pfn < blk_max_low_pfn. This is the case on UML, but
init_emergency_isa_pool() hits BUG_ON(!isa_page_pool) because there doesn't
seem to be a dma zone on UML for mempool_create() to allocate from.
Most architectures seem to have max_low_pfn == max_pfn, but UML doesn't
because of the uml_reserved chunk it keeps for itself. From what I can see,
max_pfn and max_low_pfn don't get much use after the bootmem-allocator stops
being used anyway, except that they initialize the block layer's
blk_max_low_pfn/blk_max_pfn.
This ensures init_emergency_isa_pool() doesn't crash uml in this situation by
setting max_low_pfn == max_pfn in mem_init().

As the comment immediately preceding this points out, this list is changed in
irq context, so it needs to be protected with spin_lock_irqsave in process
context when it is processed.
Sometimes, gcc should just compile the comments and forget the code.
The IRQ side of this was better, in the sense that it blocked and unblocked
interrupts, but it still should have saved and restored them.

Commit 62f96cb01e8de7a5daee472e540f726db2801499 introduced per-devices
queues and locks, which was fine as far as it went, but left in place a
global which controlled access to submitting requests to the host. This
should have been made per-device as well, since it causes I/O hangs when
multiple block devices are in use.
This patch fixes that by replacing the global with an activity flag in the
device structure in order to tell whether the queue is currently being run.

I have a bugreport that scrollwheel of bluetooth version of apple
mightymouse doesn't work. The USB version of mightymouse works, as there
is a quirk for handling scrollwheel in hid/usbhid for it.
Now that bluetooth git tree is hooked to generic hid layer, it could easily
use the quirks which are already present in generic hid parser, hid-input,
etc.
Below is a simple patch against bluetooth git tree, which adds quirk
handling to current bluetooth hidp code, and sets quirk flags for device
0x05ac/0x030c, which is the bluetooth version of the apple mightymouse.

In commit 0475ac0845f9295bc5f69af45f58dff2c104c8d1 when converting the
orphaned process group handling to use struct pid I made a small
mistake. I accidentally replaced an == with a !=.
Besides just being a dumb thing to do apparently this has a bad side
effect. The improper orphaned process group detection causes kwin to
die after a suspend/resume cycle.
I'm amazed this patch has been around as long as it has without anyone
else noticing something funny going on.
And the following people deserve credit for spotting and helping
to reproduce this.

So I think the right solution is to simply make pci_enable_device just
flip enable bits and move the rest of the work someplace else.
However a thorough cleanup is a little extreme for this point in the
release cycle, so I think a quick hack that makes the code not stomp the
irq when msi irq's are enabled should be the first fix. Then we can
later make the code not change the irqs at all.

In this driver, the default ethernet address is first set by by calling
eth_port_uc_addr_get() which reads the relevant registers of the
corresponding port as initially set by firmware. However that function
used the port_num field accessed through the private area of net_dev
before it was set.
The result was that one board I have ended up with the unicast address
set to 00:00:00:00:00:00 (only port 1 is connected on this board). The
problem appeared after commit 84dd619e4dc3b0b1c40dafd98c90fd950bce7bc5.
