ad524d46f3 x86: set PAE PHYSICAL_MASK_SHIFT to 44 bits.
When a 64-bit x86 processor runs in 32-bit PAE mode, a pte can
potentially have the same number of physical address bits as the
64-bit host ("Enhanced Legacy PAE Paging").  This means, in theory,
we could have up to 52 bits of physical address in a pte.

The 32-bit kernel uses a 32-bit unsigned long to represent a pfn.
This means that it can only represent physical addresses up to 32+12=44
bits wide.  Rather than widening pfns everywhere, just set 2^44 as the
Linux x86_32-PAE architectural limit for physical address size.

This is a bugfix for two cases:
1. running a 32-bit PAE kernel on a machine with
  more than 64GB RAM.
2. running a 32-bit PAE Xen guest on a host machine with
  more than 64GB RAM

In both cases, a pte could need to have more than 36 bits of physical,
and masking it to 36-bits will cause fairly severe havoc.

9c106c119e softlockup: fix NMI hangs due to lock race - 2.6.26-rc regression
The touch_nmi_watchdog() routine on x86 ultimately calls
touch_softlockup_watchdog().  The problem is that to touch the
softlockup watchdog, the cpu_clock code has to be called which could
involve multiple cpu locks and can lead to a hard hang if one of the
locks is held by a processor that is not going to return anytime soon
(such as could be the case with kgdb or perhaps even with some other
kind of exception).

This patch causes the public version of the
touch_softlockup_watchdog() to defer the cpu clock access to a later
point.

The test case for this problem is to use the following kernel config
options:

CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS=y
CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS_ON_BOOT=y
CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS_BOOT_STRING="V1F100I100000"

It should be noted that kgdb test suite and these options were not
available until 2.6.26-rc2, so it was necessary to patch the kgdb
test suite during the bisection.

I would consider this patch a regression fix because the problem first
appeared in commit 27ec440779 when some
logic was added to try to periodically sync the clocks.  It was
possible to work around this particular problem by simply not
performing the sync anytime the system was in a critical context.
This was ok until commit 3e51f33fcc,
which added config option CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK and some
multi-cpu locks to sync the clocks.  It became clear that accessing
this code from an nmi was the source of the lockups.  Avoiding the
access to the low level clock code from an code inside the NMI
processing also fixed the problem with the 27ec44... commit.

f18f982abf sched: CPU hotplug events must not destroy scheduler domains created by the cpusets
First issue is not related to the cpusets. We're simply leaking doms_cur.
It's allocated in arch_init_sched_domains() which is called for every
hotplug event. So we just keep reallocation doms_cur without freeing it.
I introduced free_sched_domains() function that cleans things up.

Second issue is that sched domains created by the cpusets are
completely destroyed by the CPU hotplug events. For all CPU hotplug
events scheduler attaches all CPUs to the NULL domain and then puts
them all into the single domain thereby destroying domains created
by the cpusets (partition_sched_domains).
The solution is simple, when cpusets are enabled scheduler should not
create default domain and instead let cpusets do that. Which is
exactly what the patch does.

In tick_task_rt() we first call update_curr_rt() which can dequeue a runqueue
due to it running out of runtime, and then we try to requeue it, of it also
having exhausted its RR quota. Obviously requeueing something that is no longer

ad2a3f13b7 sched: rt-group: heirarchy aware throttle
The bandwidth throttle code dequeues a group when it runs out of quota, and
re-queues it once the period rolls over and the quota gets refreshed.

Sadly it failed to take the hierarchy into consideration. Share more of the
enqueue/dequeue code with regular task opterations.

Also, some operations like sched_setscheduler() can dequeue/enqueue tasks that
are in throttled runqueues, we should not inadvertly re-enqueue empty runqueues
so check for that.

c6112bd86b sata_mv: warn on PIO with multiple DRQs
Chip errata sometimes prevents reliable use of PIO commands which involve
more than a single DRQ (data request).  In normal operation, libata should
not generate such PIO commands (uses DMA instead), but they could be sent
in via SG_IO from userspace.

A full workaround might be to break up such commands into sequences
of single DRQ ones, but that's just way too complex for something
that doesn't normally happen in real life.

So, allow the attempt (it often works, despite the errata),
but log the event for reference when somebody screams.

da503fa60b agp: two-stage page destruction issue
besides it apparently being useful only in 2.6.24 (the changes in 2.6.25
really mean that it could be converted back to a single-stage mechanism),
I'm seeing an issue in Xen Dom0 kernels, which is caused by the calling
of gart_to_virt() in the second stage invocations of the destroy function.
I think that besides this being a real issue with Xen (where
unmap_page_from_agp() is not just a page table attribute change), this
also is invalid from a theoretical perspective: One should not assume that
gart_to_virt() is still valid after unmapping a page. So minimally (keeping
the 2-stage mechanism) a patch like the one below would be needed.

ef3a62d272 mac80211: detect driver tx bugs
When a driver rejects a frame in it's ->tx() callback, it must also
stop queues, otherwise mac80211 can go into a loop here. Detect this
situation and abort the loop after five retries, warning about the
driver bug.

fb77bcef9f IB/uverbs: Fix check of is_closed flag check in ib_uverbs_async_handler()
Commit 1ae5c187 ("IB/uverbs: Don't store struct file * for event
files") changed the way that closed files are handled in the uverbs
code.  However, after the conversion, is_closed flag is checked
incorrectly in ib_uverbs_async_handler().  As a result, no async
events are ever passed to applications.

ae1e535579 firewire: deadline for PHY config transmission
If the low-level driver failed to initialize a card properly without
noticing it, fw-core was blocked indefinitely when trying to send a
PHY config packet.  This hung up the events kernel thread, e.g. locked
up keyboard input.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=444694
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446763

This problem was introduced between 2.6.25 and 2.6.26-rc1 by commit
2a0a259049 "firewire: wait until PHY
configuration packet was transmitted (fix bus reset loop)".

The solution is to wait with timeout.  I tested it with 7 different
working controllers and 1 non-working controller.  On the working ones,
the packet callback complete()s usually --- but not always --- before a
timeout of 10ms.  Hence I chose a safer timeout of 100ms.

On the few tests with the non-working controller ALi M5271, PHY config
packet transmission always timed out so far.  (Fw-ohci needs to be fixed
for this controller independently of this deadline fix.  Often the core
doesn't even attempt to send a phy config because not even self ID
reception works.)
