643a654540 [PATCH] select: fix returned timeval
With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's
`timeout' argument on return.

We were writing back a timeout larger than the original.  We _deliberately_
round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks
us to.

The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of
timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and
select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which
was passed in.

The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new
timeout value to the old one and was returning that.  It should just return
the new timeout value.

(We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in
time.h.  But this code open-codes it all).

33042a9ff4 [PATCH] x86-64: Fix HPET timer on x460
[description from AK]

The IBM Summit 3 chipset doesn't implement the HPET timer replacement
option.  Since the current Linux code relies on it use a mixed mode with
both PIT for the interrupt and HPET counters for the time keeping.  That
was already implemented, but didn't work properly because it was still
using the last interrupt offset in HPET.  This resulted in x460 not
booting.  Fix this up by using the free running HPET counter.

Shouldn't affect any other machine because they either use full HPET mode
or no HPET at all.

TBD needs a similar 32bit fix.

cff2b76009 [PATCH] fstatat64 support
The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I
used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline.  The result is that
on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement
fstatat64.

This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined.  I renamed the syscall entry point to make
this clear.  Other archs will continue to use the existing code.  On x86-64
the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function.  this is what
is done for the other stat syscalls as well.

This patch might break some other archs (those which define
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall).  Yet others
might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode.  I really don't
want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in
glibc, but the kernel is also affected).  It should be done by the arch
maintainers.  I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly.  Those who are
eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed).

The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.

7a8ef1cb77 [PATCH] x86: don't initialise cpu_possible_map to all ones
Initialising cpu_possible_map to all-ones with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU means that

a) All for_each_cpu() loops will iterate across all NR_CPUS CPUs, rather
   than over possible ones.  That can be quite expensive.

b) Soon we'll be allocating per-cpu areas only for possible CPUs.  So with
   CPU_MASK_ALL, we'll be wasting memory.

I also switched voyager over to not use CPU_MASK_ALL in the non-CPU-hotplug
case.  Should be OK..

I note that parisc is also using CPU_MASK_ALL.  Suggest that it stop doing
that.

9c15e852a5 [PATCH] kexec: fix in free initrd when overlapped with crashkernel region
It is possible that the reserved crashkernel region can be overlapped with
initrd since the bootloader sets the initrd location.  When the initrd
region is freed, the second kernel memory will not be contiguous.  The
Kexec_load can cause an oops since there is no contiguous memory to write
the second kernel or this memory could be used in the first kernel itself
and may not be part of the dump.  For example, on powerpc, the initrd is
located at 36MB and the crashkernel starts at 32MB.  The kexec_load caused
panic since writing into non-allocated memory (after 36MB).  We could see
the similar issue even on other archs.

One possibility is to move the initrd outside of crashkernel region.  But,
the initrd region will be freed anyway before the system is up.  This patch
fixes this issue and frees only regions that are not part of crashkernel
memory in case overlaps.

f29841e08f [PATCH] libata: implement ata_scsi_timed_out()
Implement ata_scsi_timed_out(), to be used as
scsi_host_template->eh_timed_out callback for all libata drivers.
Without this function, the following race exists.

If a qc completes after SCSI timer expires but before libata EH kicks
in, the qc gets completed but the scsicmd still gets passed to libata
EH resulting in ->eng_timeout invocation with NULL qc, which none is
handling properly.

This patch makes sure that scmd and qc share the same lifetime.

75288c78c6 [PATCH] ppc32: Make platform devices being able to assign functions
Implemented by  modification of the .name field of the platform device,
when PDs with the
same names are to be used within different drivers, as
<device_name> -> <device_name>:<function>
Corresponding drivers should change the .name in struct device_driver to
reflect upper of course.

Added ppc_sys_device_disable/enable function set, making it easier to
disable all the inexistent/not utilized platform device way pdevs. By the
check of the "disabled" bit in the config field of ppc_sys_specs, disabled
platform devices will be either added/removed from the bus, or simply not
registered on it, depending on the time when disable/enable call asserted.

The default behaviour when nothing is disabled/enabled will be "all devices
are enabled", which is the same as before.

Also helper platform_notify_map function added, making assignment of
board-specific platform_info more consistent and generic.

a70ea994a0 [NETLINK]: Fix a severe bug
netlink overrun was broken while improvement of netlink.
Destination socket is used in the place where it was meant to be source socket,
so that now overrun is never sent to user netlink sockets, when it should be,
and it even can be set on kernel socket, which results in complete deadlock
of rtnetlink.

Suggested fix is to restore status quo passing source socket as additional
argument to netlink_attachskb().

A little explanation: overrun is set on a socket, when it failed
to receive some message and sender of this messages does not or even
have no way to handle this error. This happens in two cases:
1. when kernel sends something. Kernel never retransmits and cannot
   wait for buffer space.
2. when user sends a broadcast and the message was not delivered
   to some recipients.

365bf8ac6f [ARM] 3311/1: clean up include/asm-arm/mutex.h
Patch from Nicolas Pitre

Since:

	if (unlikely(__res || __ex_flag))

produces worse code on ARM than:

	if (unlikely(__res | __ex_flag))

I therefore made it more explicit:

	__res |= __ex_flag;
	if (unlikely(__res != 0))

so it is not seen as a typo again.

Also made everything static inline rather than macros for better readability
(both produce the same code after all).

And finally added missing \t from multi-line assembly code.
