3162534069 x86, intel_txt: Intel TXT boot support
This patch adds kernel configuration and boot support for Intel Trusted
Execution Technology (Intel TXT).

Intel's technology for safer computing, Intel Trusted Execution
Technology (Intel TXT), defines platform-level enhancements that
provide the building blocks for creating trusted platforms.

Intel TXT was formerly known by the code name LaGrande Technology (LT).

Intel TXT in Brief:
o  Provides dynamic root of trust for measurement (DRTM)
o  Data protection in case of improper shutdown
o  Measurement and verification of launched environment

Intel TXT is part of the vPro(TM) brand and is also available some
non-vPro systems.  It is currently available on desktop systems based on
the Q35, X38, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets (e.g. Dell Optiplex 755, HP
dc7800, etc.) and mobile systems based on the GM45, PM45, and GS45
Express chipsets.

For more information, see http://www.intel.com/technology/security/.
This site also has a link to the Intel TXT MLE Developers Manual, which
has been updated for the new released platforms.

A much more complete description of how these patches support TXT, how to
configure a system for it, etc. is in the Documentation/intel_txt.txt file
in this patch.

This patch provides the TXT support routines for complete functionality,
documentation for TXT support and for the changes to the boot_params structure,
and boot detection of a TXT launch.  Attempts to shutdown (reboot, Sx) the system
will result in platform resets; subsequent patches will support these shutdown modes
properly.

6cdbf73449 mvsdio: fix handling of partial word at the end of PIO transfer
Standard data flow for MMC/SD/SDIO cards requires that the mvsdio
controller be set for big endian operation.  This is causing problems
with buffers which length is not a multiple of 4 bytes as the last
partial word doesn't get shifted all the way and stored properly in
memory.  Let's compensate for this.

254702568d specialix.c: convert nested spin_lock_irqsave to spin_lock
If spin_lock_irqsave is called twice in a row with the same second
argument, the interrupt state at the point of the second call overwrites
the value saved by the first call.  Indeed, the second call does not
need to save the interrupt state, so it is changed to a simple
spin_lock.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

expression lock1,lock2;

c46a7aec55 vc: create vcs(a) devices for consoles
The buffer for the consoles are unconditionally allocated at con_init()
time, which miss the creation of the vcs(a) devices.

Since 2.6.30 (commit 4995f8ef9d, 'vcs:
hook sysfs devices into object lifetime instead of "binding"' to be
exact) these devices are no longer created at open() and removed on
close(), but controlled by the lifetime of the buffers.

04e448d9a3 vmlinux.lds.h: restructure BSS linker script macros
The BSS section macros in vmlinux.lds.h currently place the .sbss
input section outside the bounds of [__bss_start, __bss_end].  On all
architectures except for microblaze that handle both .sbss and
__bss_start/__bss_end, this is wrong: the .sbss input section is
within the range [__bss_start, __bss_end].  Relatedly, the example
code at the top of the file actually has __bss_start/__bss_end defined
twice; I believe the right fix here is to define them in the
BSS_SECTION macro but not in the BSS macro.

Another problem with the current macros is that several
architectures have an ALIGN(4) or some other small number just before
__bss_stop in their linker scripts.  The BSS_SECTION macro currently
hardcodes this to 4; while it should really be an argument.  It also
ignores its sbss_align argument; fix that.

mn10300 is the only user at present of any of the macros touched by
this patch.  It looks like mn10300 actually was incorrectly converted
to use the new BSS() macro (the alignment of 4 prior to conversion was
a __bss_stop alignment, but the argument to the BSS macro is a start
alignment).  So fix this as well.

I'd like acks from Sam and David on this one.  Also CCing Paul, since
he has a patch from me which will need to be updated to use
BSS_SECTION(0, PAGE_SIZE, 4) once this gets merged.

04aef32d39 tracing/function: Fix the return value of ftrace_trace_onoff_callback()
ftrace_trace_onoff_callback() will return an error even if we do the
right operation, for example:

 # echo _spin_*:traceon:10 > set_ftrace_filter
 -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
 # cat set_ftrace_filter
 #### all functions enabled ####
 _spin_trylock_bh:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock_irq:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock_bh:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock_irq:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock:traceon:count=10
 _spin_trylock:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock_irqrestore:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock_irqsave:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock_bh:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock:traceon:count=10

We want to set _spin_*:traceon:10 to set_ftrace_filter, it complains
with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful.

This is because ftrace_process_regex() returns the number of functions that
matched the pattern. If the number is not 0, this value is returned
by ftrace_regex_write() whereas we want to return the number of bytes
virtually written.
Also the file offset pointer is not updated in this case.

If the number of matched functions is lower than the number of bytes written
by the user, this results to a reprocessing of the string given by the user with
a lower size, leading to a malformed ftrace regex and then a -EINVAL returned.

So, this patch fixes it by returning 0 if no error occured.
The fix also applies on 2.6.30

6843f405da Blackfin: define HARDIRQ_BITS again for now
The default values of HARDIRQ_BITS and PREEMPT_BITS in common code leads to
build failure:

In file included from include/linux/interrupt.h:12,
                from include/linux/kernel_stat.h:8,
                from arch/blackfin/kernel/asm-offsets.c:32:
include/linux/hardirq.h:66:2: error: #error PREEMPT_ACTIVE is too low!

So until that gets resolved, just declare our own default value again.

8077088449 n_tty: Fix echo race
If a tty in N_TTY mode with echo enabled manages to get itself into a state
where
	- echo characters are pending
	- FASYNC is enabled
	- tty_write_wakeup is called from either
		- a device write path (pty)
		- an IRQ (serial)

then it either deadlocks or explodes taking a mutex in the IRQ path.

On the serial side it is almost impossible to reproduce because you have to
go from a full serial port to a near empty one with echo characters
pending. The pty case happens to have become possible to trigger using
emacs and ptys, the pty changes having created a scenario which shows up
this bug.

The code path is

	n_tty:process_echoes() (takes mutex)
	tty_io:tty_put_char()
	pty:pty_write  (or serial paths)
	tty_wakeup     (from pty_write or serial IRQ)
	n_tty_write_wakeup()
	process_echoes()
	*KABOOM*

5c9228f0cf vt: drop bootmem/slab memory distinction
Bootmem is not used for the vt screen buffer anymore as slab is now
available at the time the console is initialized.

Get rid of the now superfluous distinction between slab and bootmem,
it's always slab.

This also fixes a kmalloc leak which Catalin described thusly:

Commit a5f4f52e ("vt: use kzalloc() instead of the bootmem allocator")
replaced the alloc_bootmem() with kzalloc() but didn't set vc_kmalloced to
1 and the memory block is later leaked.  The corresponding kmemleak trace:

a3ca86aea5 Add '-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks' to gcc CFLAGS
Turning on this flag could prevent the compiler from optimising away
some "useless" checks for null pointers.  Such bugs can sometimes become
exploitable at compile time because of the -O2 optimisation.

See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.2/gcc/Optimize-Options.html

An example that clearly shows this 'problem' is commit 6bf67672.

 static void __devexit agnx_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev)
 {
     struct ieee80211_hw *dev = pci_get_drvdata(pdev);
-    struct agnx_priv *priv = dev->priv;
+    struct agnx_priv *priv;
     AGNX_TRACE;

     if (!dev)
         return;
+    priv = dev->priv;

By reverting this patch, and compile it with and without
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag, we can see that the check for dev
is compiled away.

    call    printk  #
-   testq   %r12, %r12  # dev
-   je  .L94    #,
    movq    %r12, %rdi  # dev,

Clearly the 'fix' is to stop using dev before it is tested, but building
with -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag at least makes it harder to
abuse.
