8e3e076c5a BKL: revert back to the old spinlock implementation
The generic semaphore rewrite had a huge performance regression on AIM7
(and potentially other BKL-heavy benchmarks) because the generic
semaphores had been rewritten to be simple to understand and fair.  The
latter, in particular, turns a semaphore-based BKL implementation into a
mess of scheduling.

The attempt to fix the performance regression failed miserably (see the
previous commit 00b41ec261 'Revert
"semaphore: fix"'), and so for now the simple and sane approach is to
instead just go back to the old spinlock-based BKL implementation that
never had any issues like this.

This patch also has the advantage of being reported to fix the
regression completely according to Yanmin Zhang, unlike the semaphore
hack which still left a couple percentage point regression.

As a spinlock, the BKL obviously has the potential to be a latency
issue, but it's not really any different from any other spinlock in that
respect.  We do want to get rid of the BKL asap, but that has been the
plan for several years.

These days, the biggest users are in the tty layer (open/release in
particular) and Alan holds out some hope:

  "tty release is probably a few months away from getting cured - I'm
   afraid it will almost certainly be the very last user of the BKL in
   tty to get fixed as it depends on everything else being sanely locked."

so while we're not there yet, we do have a plan of action.

It actually makes much more sense there, and we do tend to need it for

other cases that have open-coded the same logic to use the same helper

5c3a121d52 x86: sysfs cpu?/topology is empty in 2.6.25 (32-bit Intel system)
System topology on intel based system needs to be exported
for non-numa case as well.

All parts of asm-i386/topology.h has come under
#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA after the merge to asm-x86/topology.h

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/topology/* is populated based on
ENABLE_TOPO_DEFINES

The sysfs cpu topology is not being populated on my dual socket
dual core xeon 5160 processor based (x86 32 bit) system.

CONFIG_NUMA is not set in my case yet the topology is relevant
and useful.

irqbalance daemon application depends on topology to build the
cpus and package list and it fails on Fedora9 beta since the
sysfs topology was not being populated in the 2.6.25 kernel.

I am not sure if it was intentional to not define ENABLE_TOPO_DEFINES
for non-numa systems.

This fix has been tested on the above mentioned dual core, dual socket
system.

eb2b4e682a x86: revert commit 709f744 ("x86: bitops asm constraint fixes")
709f744 causes my computer to freeze during the start up of X and my
login manger (GDM). It gets to the point where it has shown the default
X mouse cursor logo (a big X / cross) and does not respond to anything
from that point on.

This worked fine before 709f744, and it works fine with 709f744
reverted on top of Linus' current tree (f74d505). The revert had
conflicts, as far as I can tell due to white space changes. The diff I
ended up with is below.

It is 100% reproducible.

6c2545eeff module: put modversions in vermagic

modprobe --force will strip vermagic as well as modversions, so it

dc38e2ad53 [ARM] pxa: Fix RCSR handling
Related to d3930614e6.

RCSR is only present on PXA2xx CPUs, not on PXA3xx CPUs.  Therefore,
we should not be unconditionally writing to RCSR from generic code.

Since we now clear the RCSR status from the SoC specific PXA PM code
and before reset in the arch_reset() function, the duplication in
the corgi, poodle, spitz and tosa code can be removed.

8d4a430085 x86: cleanup PAT cpu validation
Move the scattered checks for PAT support to a single function. Its
moved to addon_cpuid_features.c as this file is shared between 32 and
64 bit.

Remove the manipulation of the PAT feature bit and just disable PAT in
the PAT layer, based on the PAT bit provided by the CPU and the
current CPU version/model white list.

Change the boot CPU check so it works on Voyager somewhere in the
future as well :) Also panic, when a secondary has PAT disabled but
the primary one has alrady switched to PAT. We have no way to undo
that.

The white list is kept for now to ensure that we can rely on known to
work CPU types and concentrate on the software induced problems
instead of fighthing CPU erratas and subtle wreckage caused by not yet
verified CPUs. Once the PAT code has stabilized enough, we can remove
the white list and open the can of worms.

ef75d49f11 netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: restrict RTP expect flushing on error to last request
Some Inovaphone PBXs exhibit very stange behaviour: when dialing for
example "123", the device sends INVITE requests for "1", "12" and
"123" back to back.  The first requests will elicit error responses
from the receiver, causing the SIP helper to flush the RTP
expectations even though we might still see a positive response.

Note the sequence number of the last INVITE request that contained a
media description and only flush the expectations when receiving a
negative response for that sequence number.

7f3d4ee108 vfs: splice remove_suid() cleanup
generic_file_splice_write() duplicates remove_suid() just because it
doesn't hold i_mutex.  But it grabs i_mutex inside splice_from_pipe()
anyway, so this is rather pointless.

Move locking to generic_file_splice_write() and call remove_suid() and
__splice_from_pipe() instead.

b499d76bfd [S390] compat ptrace cleanup
This removes redundant arch code for generic ptrace requests
already handled by ptrace_request and compat_ptrace_request.
It simplifies things to just have the standard entry points,
and use the generic compat_sys_ptrace.

0eaeafa10f [S390] s390-kvm: leave sie context on work. Removes preemption requirement
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

This patch fixes a bug with cpu bound guest on kvm-s390. Sometimes it
was impossible to deliver a signal to a spinning guest. We used
preemption as a circumvention. The preemption notifiers called
vcpu_load, which checked for pending signals and triggered a host
intercept. But even with preemption, a sigkill was not delivered
immediately.

This patch changes the low level host interrupt handler to check for the
SIE  instruction, if TIF_WORK is set. In that case we change the
instruction pointer of the return PSW to rerun the vcpu_run loop. The kvm
code sees an intercept reason 0 if that happens. This patch adds accounting
for these types of intercept as well.

The advantages:
- works with and without preemption
- signals are delivered immediately
- much better host latencies without preemption

0893f1250f [Blackfin] arch: fix gdb testing regression
When transferring to IRQ5 from an exception, save SYSCFG in memory across the
transfer and clear the trace bit.

When we get a single step exception, check whether we can safely clear the
trace bit in SYSCFG.  We can (and should) clear it after the first instruction
of the interrupt handler; the first insn saves SYSCFG to the stack in all
handlers.

aeed5fce37 x86: fix PAE pmd_bad bootup warning
Fix warning from pmd_bad() at bootup on a HIGHMEM64G HIGHPTE x86_32.

That came from 9fc34113f6 x86: debug pmd_bad();
but we understand now that the typecasting was wrong for PAE in the previous
version: pagetable pages above 4GB looked bad and stopped Arjan from booting.

And revert that cded932b75 x86: fix pmd_bad
and pud_bad to support huge pages.  It was the wrong way round: we shouldn't
weaken every pmd_bad and pud_bad check to let huge pages slip through - in
part they check that we _don't_ have a huge page where it's not expected.

Put the x86 pmd_bad() and pud_bad() definitions back to what they have long
been: they can be improved (x86_32 should use PTE_MASK, to stop PAE thinking
junk in the upper word is good; and x86_64 should follow x86_32's stricter
comparison, to stop thinking any subset of required bits is good); but that
should be a later patch.

Fix Hans' good observation that follow_page() will never find pmd_huge()
because that would have already failed the pmd_bad test: test pmd_huge in
between the pmd_none and pmd_bad tests.  Tighten x86's pmd_huge() check?
No, once it's a hugepage entry, it can get quite far from a good pmd: for
example, PROT_NONE leaves it with only ACCESSED of the KERN_PGTABLE bits.

However... though follow_page() contains this and another test for huge
pages, so it's nice to keep it working on them, where does it actually get
called on a huge page?  get_user_pages() checks is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma) to
to call alternative hugetlb processing, as does unmap_vmas() and others.
