security: Minor improvements to no_new_privs documentation
We already use them for openat() and friends, but fchdir() also wants to
be able to use O_PATH file descriptors. This should make it comparable
to the O_SEARCH of Solaris. In particular, O_PATH allows you to access
(not-quite-open) a directory you don't have read persmission to, only
execute permission.
Noticed during development of multithread support for ksh93.

48ddbe1946 "cgroup: make css->refcnt clearing on cgroup removal
optional" allowed a css to linger after the associated cgroup is
removed. As a css holds a reference on the cgroup's dentry, it means
that cgroup dentries may linger for a while.
Destroying a superblock which has dentries with positive refcnts is a
critical bug and triggers BUG() in vfs code. As each cgroup dentry
holds an s_active reference, any lingering cgroup has both its dentry
and the superblock pinned and thus preventing premature release of
superblock.
Unfortunately, after 48ddbe1946, there's a small window while
releasing a cgroup which is directly under the root of the hierarchy.
When a cgroup directory is released, vfs layer first deletes the
corresponding dentry and then invokes dput() on the parent, which may
recurse further, so when a cgroup directly below root cgroup is
released, the cgroup is first destroyed - which releases the s_active
it was holding - and then the dentry for the root cgroup is dput().
This creates a window where the root dentry's refcnt isn't zero but
superblock's s_active is. If umount happens before or during this
window, vfs will see the root dentry with non-zero refcnt and trigger
BUG().
Before 48ddbe1946, this problem didn't exist because the last dentry
reference was guaranteed to be put synchronously from rmdir(2)
invocation which holds s_active around the whole process.
Fix it by holding an extra superblock->s_active reference across
dput() from css release, which is the dput() path added by 48ddbe1946
and the only one which doesn't hold an extra s_active ref across the
final cgroup dput().

This reverts commit fa980ca87d. The
commit was an attempt to fix a race condition where a cgroup hierarchy
may be unmounted with positive dentry reference on root cgroup. While
the commit made the race condition slightly more difficult to trigger,
the race was still there and could be reliably triggered using a
different test case.
Revert the incorrect fix. The next commit will describe the race and

Commit 300bab9770 (hwspinlock/core: register a bank of hwspinlocks in a
single API call, 2011-09-06) introduced 'hwspin_lock_register_single()'
to register numerous (a bank of) hwspinlock instances in a single API,
'hwspin_lock_register()'.
At which time, 'hwspin_lock_register()' accidentally passes 'local IDs'
to 'hwspin_lock_register_single()', despite that ..._single() requires
'global IDs' to register hwspinlocks.
We have to convert into global IDs by supplying the missing 'base_id'.

introduced an additional bit flag (V4L2_FL_LOCK_ALL_FOPS) that
should be set by drivers that use the v4l2 core lock for all file

the core changes it doesn't set this flags and thus its all file
operations except IOCTL are not properly serialized. Fix this by

Commit 7a6f6c29d2 (cx231xx: use
URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP) was intended to avoid mapping the DMA buffer
for URB twice. This works for the URBs allocated with usb_alloc_urb(),
as those are allocated from cohernent DMA pools, but the flag was also
added for the VBI and audio URBs, which have a manually allocated area.
This leaves the random trash in the structure after allocation as the
DMA address, corrupting memory and preventing VBI and audio from
working. Letting the USB core map the buffers solves the problem.

qla2xxx: print the right array elements in qlt_async_event
tcm_fc: Resolve suspicious RCU usage warnings
File operations on /dev/ecryptfs would BUG() when the operations were
performed by processes other than the process that originally opened the
file. This could happen with open files inherited after fork() or file
descriptors passed through IPC mechanisms. Rather than calling BUG(), an
error code can be safely returned in most situations.
In ecryptfs_miscdev_release(), eCryptfs still needs to handle the
release even if the last file reference is being held by a process that
didn't originally open the file. ecryptfs_find_daemon_by_euid() will not
be successful, so a pointer to the daemon is stored in the file's
private_data. The private_data pointer is initialized when the miscdev
file is opened and only used when the file is released.

When pin control mapping tables are written the registered device
name is supplied for use in name-based searches within the pinctrl
driver. In the case of the DB8500 the string "pinctrl-db8500" is
used. However, when we register the driver with Device Tree, its
naming convention uses something that looks more like "pinctrl.2".
To work around the device naming inconsistencies between devices
registered via platform code and the ones registered by Device
Tree, we use AUXDATA to over-ride the Device Tree naming scheme.

Sometimes it doesn't make any sense for a node to have an address.
In this case device lookup will always be unsuccessful because we
currently assume every node will have a reg property. This patch
changes the semantics so that the resource address and the lookup
address will only be compared if one exists.
Things like AUXDATA() rely on of_dev_lookup to return the lookup
entry of a particular device in order to do things like apply
platform_data to a device. However, this is currently broken for
nodes which do not have a reg property, meaning that platform_data
can not be passed in those cases.

There are a few (new) usbdevfs capabilities which an application cannot
discover in any other way then checking the kernel version. There are 3
problems with this:
1) It is just not very pretty.
2) Given the tendency of enterprise distros to backport stuff it is not
reliable.
3) As discussed in length on the mailinglist, USBDEVFS_URB_BULK_CONTINUATION
does not work as it should when combined with USBDEVFS_URB_SHORT_NOT_OK
(which is its intended use) on devices attached to an XHCI controller.
So the availability of these features can be host controller dependent,
making depending on them based on the kernel version not a good idea.
This patch besides adding the new ioctl also adds flags for the following
existing capabilities:
USBDEVFS_CAP_ZERO_PACKET, available since 2.6.31
USBDEVFS_CAP_BULK_CONTINUATION, available since 2.6.32, except for XHCI
USBDEVFS_CAP_NO_PACKET_SIZE_LIM, available since 3.3
Note that this patch only does not advertise the USBDEVFS_URB_BULK_CONTINUATION
cap for XHCI controllers, bulk transfers with this flag set will still be
accepted when submitted to XHCI controllers.
Returning -EINVAL for them would break existing apps, and in most cases the
troublesome scenario wrt USBDEVFS_URB_SHORT_NOT_OK urbs on XHCI controllers
will never get hit, so this would break working use cases.
The disadvantage of not returning -EINVAL is that cases were it is causing
real trouble may go undetected / the cause of the trouble may be unclear,
but this is the best we can do.

iso data buffers may have holes in them if some packets were short, so for
iso urbs we should always copy the entire buffer, just like the regular
processcompl does.

The devm_ functions allocate memory that is released when a driver
detaches. This makes the code smaller and a bit simpler.
