8cf1fb2163 pnfs: Automatically select blocks & objects layouts
Just like files-layout, blocks & objects layouts are part of the
NFS 4.1 protocol and should be automatically selected if NFS_4_1
is selected. The small problem is that these depend on other
Kernel support being present, while files only depends on NFS
itself.

This patch removes from the user choice the presence of objects
and blocks layout. But makes sure these are selected only if
the depended subsystems are present in the Kernel.

8c20871998 ext4: Properly count journal credits for long symlinks
Commit df5e622340 ("ext4: fix deadlock in ext4_symlink() in ENOSPC
conditions") recalculated the number of credits needed for a long
symlink, in the process of splitting it into two transactions.  However,
the first credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is
enabled, credits are needed to create the selinux xattr as well.

Overrunning the reservation will result in an OOPS in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() due to this assert:

  J_ASSERT_JH(jh, handle->h_buffer_credits > 0);

Fix this by increasing the reservation size.

72fa59970f move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC
check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and
similar functions.

Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed
number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on
rlimit only.  But the check created new security threat: many poorly
written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it
cannot fail if executed with root privileges.  So, the check is removed
in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to
buggy programs.

The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons
spawning user processes.  Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve().
The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in
setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues.

Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the
limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag.  With the change only
this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve()
behaviour is not changed.

Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still
exceeded at the moment of execve().  If the process was sleeping for
days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down
under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was
exceeded days ago would be unexpected.  If the limit is not exceeded
anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork().

The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit
was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one.

Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag).

v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

97a8041020 ipv4: some rt_iif -> rt_route_iif conversions
As rt_iif represents input device even for packets
coming from loopback with output route, it is not an unique
key specific to input routes. Now rt_route_iif has such role,
it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at
some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics.

compare_keys:
	- input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same
	- output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not
		used for matching in __ip_route_output_key
	- now we are back to 2.6.38 state

ip_route_input_common:
	- matching rt_route_iif implies input route
	- compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check
	because it was not needed even for 2.6.38

compare_hash_inputs:
	Only the change here is not an optimization, it has
	effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring
	the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif
	- now we are back to 2.6.38 state

3557619f0f net_sched: prio: use qdisc_dequeue_peeked
commit 07bd8df5df
(sch_sfq: fix peek() implementation) changed sfq to use generic
peek helper.

This makes HFSC complain about a non-work-conserving child qdisc, if
prio with sfq child is used within hfsc:

hfsc peeks into prio qdisc, which will then peek into sfq.
returned skb is stashed in sch->gso_skb.

Next, hfsc tries to dequeue from prio, but prio will call sfq dequeue
directly, which may return NULL instead of previously peeked-at skb.

Have prio call qdisc_dequeue_peeked, so sfq->dequeue() is
not called in this case.

9be6dd6510 Bridge: Always send NETDEV_CHANGEADDR up on br MAC change.
This ensures the neighbor entries associated with the bridge
dev are flushed, also invalidating the associated cached L2 headers.

This means we br_add_if/br_del_if ports to implement hand-over and
not wind up with bridge packets going out with stale MAC.

This means we can also change MAC of port device and also not wind
up with bridge packets going out with stale MAC.

This builds on Stephen Hemminger's patch, also handling the br_del_if
case and the port MAC change case.

f2c0d0266c cap_syslog: don't use WARN_ONCE for CAP_SYS_ADMIN deprecation warning
syslog-ng versions before 3.3.0beta1 (2011-05-12) assume that
CAP_SYS_ADMIN is sufficient to access syslog, so ever since CAP_SYSLOG
was introduced (2010-11-25) they have triggered a warning.

Commit ee24aebffb ("cap_syslog: accept CAP_SYS_ADMIN for now")
improved matters a little by making syslog-ng work again, just keeping
the WARN_ONCE().  But still, this is a warning that writes a stack trace
we don't care about to syslog, sets a taint flag, and alarms sysadmins
when nothing worse has happened than use of an old userspace with a
recent kernel.

Convert the WARN_ONCE to a printk_once to avoid that while continuing to
give userspace developers a hint that this is an unwanted
backward-compatibility feature and won't be around forever.

9f50fad65b Revert "memcg: get rid of percpu_charge_mutex lock"
This reverts commit 8521fc50d4.

The patch incorrectly assumes that using atomic FLUSHING_CACHED_CHARGE
bit operations is sufficient but that is not true.  Johannes Weiner has
reported a crash during parallel memory cgroup removal:

We are crashing because we try to dereference cached memcg when we are
checking whether we should wait for draining on the cache.  The cache is
already cleaned up, though.

There is also a theoretical chance that the cached memcg gets freed
between we test for the FLUSHING_CACHED_CHARGE and dereference it in
mem_cgroup_same_or_subtree:

        CPU0                    CPU1                         CPU2
  mem=stock->cached
  stock->cached=NULL
                              clear_bit
                                                        test_and_set_bit
  test_bit()                    ...
  <preempted>             mem_cgroup_destroy
  use after free

The percpu_charge_mutex protected from this race because sync draining
is exclusive.

It is safer to revert now and come up with a more parallel
implementation later.

bdc71bc592 ath5k: fix error handling in ath5k_beacon_send
This cleans up error handling for the beacon in case of dma mapping
failure.  We need to free the skb when dma mapping fails instead of
nulling and leaking the pointer, and we should bail out to avoid
giving the hardware the bad descriptor.

Finally, we need to perform the null check after trying to update
the beacon, or else beacons will never be sent after a single
mapping failure.
