Every implementation of ->task_kill() does nothing when the signal comes from
the kernel. This is correct, but means that check_kill_permission() should
call security_task_kill() only for SI_FROMUSER() case, and we can remove the
same check from ->task_kill() implementations.
(sadly, check_kill_permission() is the last user of signal->session/__session
but we can't s/task_session_nr/task_session/ here).
NOTE: Eric W. Biederman pointed out cap_task_kill() should die, and I think
he is very right.

Both functions do the same thing after proper locking, but with
different sigpending structs, so move the common code into a helper.
After this we have 4 places that look very similar: send_sigqueue: calls
do_send_sigqueue and signal_wakeup send_group_sigqueue: calls
do_send_sigqueue and __group_complete_signal __group_send_sig_info:
calls send_signal and __group_complete_signal specific_send_sig_info:
calls send_signal and signal_wakeup
Besides, send_signal performs actions similar to do_send_sigqueue's
and __group_complete_signal - to signal_wakeup.
It looks like they can be consolidated gracefully.
Oleg said:
Personally, I think this change is very good. But send_sigqueue() and
send_group_sigqueue() have a very subtle difference which I was never able
to understand.
Let's suppose that sigqueue is already queued, and the signal is ignored
(the latter means we should re-schedule cpu timer or handle overrruns). In
that case send_sigqueue() returns 0, but send_group_sigqueue() returns 1.
I think this is not the problem (in fact, I think this patch makes the
behaviour more correct), but I hope Thomas can take a look and confirm.

The signr variable may be declared without initialization - it is set ro the

Besides, after recalc_sigpending() two checks for signr to be not 0 may be

-added md_wait_for_blocked_rdev to wait for the block device to be clear, if

When setting an array to 'readonly' or to 'active' via sysfs, we must make the
appropriate set_disk_ro call too.
Also when switching to "read_auto" (which is like readonly, but blocks on the

about what state we are changing from.

'safemode' relates to marking an array as 'clean' if there has been no write
traffic for a while (a couple of seconds), to reduce the chance of the array
being found dirty on reboot.
->safemode is set to '1' when there have been no write for a while, and it
gets set to '0' when the superblock is updates with the 'clean' flag set.
This requires a few fixes for 'external' metadata:
- When an array is set to 'clean' via sysfs, 'safemode' must be cleared.
- when we write to an array that has 'safemode' set (there must have been
some delay in updating the metadata), we need to clear safemode.
- Don't try to update external metadata in md_check_recovery for safemode
transitions - it won't work.
Also, don't try to support "immediate safe mode" (safemode==2) for external
metadata, it cannot really work (the safemode timeout can be set very low if
this is really needed).

Reasons:
1. straight forward: the name "LCD_COLOR_DSTN_16BPP" is much better
than "LCCR0_Pas | LCCR0_Color | LCCR0_Dual"
2. by defining LCD connection types as constants, it allows only
valid possibilities
3. by removing the dependency of register bits definitions, those
can be later moved into the body of pxafb.c, instead of having
a regs-lcd.h around
Currently, only lubbock, mainstone, zylonite and littleton have been
modified to support these types (see coming patches after this).
Other platforms are encouraged to change their way describing the
LCD controller connections.
