a00cce356b ocfs2: use s_maxbytes directly in ocfs2_change_file_space()
There's no need to recalculate things via ocfs2_max_file_offset() as we've
already done that to fill s_maxbytes, so use that instead. We can also
un-export ocfs2_max_file_offset() then.

c11e9fafb3 ocfs2: Restrict inode changes in ocfs2_update_inode_atime()
ocfs2_update_inode_atime() calls ocfs2_mark_inode_dirty() to push changes
from the struct inode into the ocfs2 disk inode. The problem is,
ocfs2_mark_inode_dirty() might change other fields, depending on what
happened to the struct inode. Since we don't always have locking to
serialize changes to other fields (like i_size, etc), just fix things up to
only touch the atime field.

6adb31c90c remove dubious legal statment from uio-howto
UIO currently contains a rather dubious statement which wants removing.

The actual questions around whether user space code that depends tightly
on kernel GPL code designed to co-work with it are derivative works of
the kernel is extremely complex, and since we don't have space for either
a masters length essay on legal issues or need to start flamewars lets
simply remove the comment and leave law to lawyers

6a0ed91e36 hexdump: use const notation
Trivial fix: mark the buffer to hexdump as const so callers could avoid
casting their const buffers when calling print_hex_dump().

The patch is really trivial and I suggest to consider it as a fix
(it fixes GCC warnings) and push it to current tree.

e3bcf5e278 lguest: avoid shared libraries mapped over guest memory
Some versions of ld.so mmap the shared libraries right in over guest
memory, so compile lguest statically by default.

[ FC7 maps shared libraries very low, where the launcher maps guest's
  physical memory.  Quick fix is to link Launcher static, real fix is
  for 2.6.24. ]

-static is a simple fix. I expect this problem will be more common than we
like, as different distro's make different "improvements" to ld.so

0d027c01cd lguest: Fix Malicious Guest GDT Host Crash
If a Guest makes hypercall which sets a GDT entry to not present, we
currently set any segment registers using that GDT entry to 0.
Unfortunately, this is not sufficient: there are other ways of
altering GDT entries which will cause a fault.

The correct solution to do what Linux does: let them set any GDT value
they want and handle the #GP when popping causes a fault.  This has
the added benefit of making our Switcher slightly more robust in the
case of any other bugs which cause it to fault.

We kill the Guest if it causes a fault in the Switcher: it's the
Guest's responsibility to make sure it's not using segments when it
changes them.

37250097e1 Fix non-TSC guest clocksource lockup
lguest uses a host-supplied wallclock-based clocksource when the TSC
is not reliable.  As this is already in nanoseconds, I naively used a
multiplier of 1 and a shift of 0.

But update_wall_time() in its infinite wisdom decides to adjust the
clock a little (where does it think it's getting a more accurate time
from?)

It will happily tweak the multiplier... to 0, then -1.

So the "fix" is to use a shift of 22 like everyone else, and a
multiplier of 1 << 22.
