implement flush_work()
A basic problem with flush_scheduled_work() is that it blocks behind _all_
presently-queued works, rather than just the work whcih the caller wants to
flush. If the caller holds some lock, and if one of the queued work happens
to want that lock as well then accidental deadlocks can occur.
One example of this is the phy layer: it wants to flush work while holding
rtnl_lock(). But if a linkwatch event happens to be queued, the phy code will
deadlock because the linkwatch callback function takes rtnl_lock.
So we implement a new function which will flush a *single* work - just the one
which the caller wants to free up. Thus we avoid the accidental deadlocks
which can arise from unrelated subsystems' callbacks taking shared locks.
flush_work() non-blockingly dequeues the work_struct which we want to kill,
then it waits for its handler to complete on all CPUs.
Add ->current_work to the "struct cpu_workqueue_struct", it points to
currently running "struct work_struct". When flush_work(work) detects
->current_work == work, it inserts a barrier at the _head_ of ->worklist
(and thus right _after_ that work) and waits for completition. This means
that the next work fired on that CPU will be this barrier, or another
barrier queued by concurrent flush_work(), so the caller of flush_work()
will be woken before any "regular" work has a chance to run.
When wait_on_work() unlocks workqueue_mutex (or whatever we choose to protect
against CPU hotplug), CPU may go away. But in that case take_over_work() will
move a barrier we queued to another CPU, it will be fired sometime, and
wait_on_work() will be woken.
Actually, we are doing cleanup_workqueue_thread()->kthread_stop() before
take_over_work(), so cwq->thread should complete its ->worklist (and thus
the barrier), because currently we don't check kthread_should_stop() in
run_workqueue(). But even if we did, everything should be ok.

Remove ->remove_sequence, ->insert_sequence, and ->work_done from struct

barrier work on each CPU and wait for its completition.
The barrier is queued under workqueue_mutex to ensure that per cpu
wq->cpu_wq is alive, we drop this mutex before going to sleep. If CPU goes
down while we are waiting for completition, take_over_work() will move the

Furthermore, if a page has been written to using a particular key, then should
another write to that page use some other key, the first write will be flushed

tty_set_ldisc() receive_room fix
Fix tty_set_ldisc in tty_io.c so that tty->receive_room is only cleared if
actually changing line disciplines.
Without this fix a problem occurs when requesting the line discipline to
change to the same line discipline. In this case tty->receive_room is
cleared but ldisc->open() is not called to set tty->receive_room back to a
sane value. The result is that tty->receive_room is stuck at 0 preventing
the tty flip buffer from passing receive data to the line discipline.
For example: a switch from N_TTY to N_TTY followed by a select() call for
read input results in data never being received because tty->receive_room
is stuck at zero.
A switch from N_TTY to N_TTY followed by a read() call works because the
read() call itself sets tty->receive_room correctly (but select does not).
Previously (< 2.6.18) this was not a problem because the tty flip buffer
pushed data to the line discipline without regard for tty->receive room.

pretend cpuset has some form of hugetlb page reservation
When cpuset is configured, it breaks the strict hugetlb page reservation as
the accounting is done on a global variable. Such reservation is
completely rubbish in the presence of cpuset because the reservation is not
checked against page availability for the current cpuset. Application can
still potentially OOM'ed by kernel with lack of free htlb page in cpuset
that the task is in. Attempt to enforce strict accounting with cpuset is
almost impossible (or too ugly) because cpuset is too fluid that task or
memory node can be dynamically moved between cpusets.
The change of semantics for shared hugetlb mapping with cpuset is
undesirable. However, in order to preserve some of the semantics, we fall
back to check against current free page availability as a best attempt and
hopefully to minimize the impact of changing semantics that cpuset has on
hugetlb.

being that the dump capture kernel boots on the crashed CPU (the CPU that
invoked crash_kexec), which may be or may not be that particular CPU.
Move definition of hard_smp_processor_id for the UP case to
architecture-specific code ("asm/smp.h") where it belongs, so that each

fix leaky resv_huge_pages when cpuset is in use
The internal hugetlb resv_huge_pages variable can permanently leak nonzero
value in the error path of hugetlb page fault handler when hugetlb page is
used in combination of cpuset. The leaked count can permanently trap N
number of hugetlb pages in unusable "reserved" state.
Steps to reproduce the bug:
(1) create two cpuset, user1 and user2
(2) reserve 50 htlb pages in cpuset user1
(3) attempt to shmget/shmat 50 htlb page inside cpuset user2
(4) kernel oom the user process in step 3
(5) ipcrm the shm segment
At this point resv_huge_pages will have a count of 49, even though
there are no active hugetlbfs file nor hugetlb shared memory segment
in the system. The leak is permanent and there is no recovery method
other than system reboot. The leaked count will hold up all future use
of that many htlb pages in all cpusets.
The culprit is that the error path of alloc_huge_page() did not
properly undo the change it made to resv_huge_page, causing
inconsistent state.

dm log: fix resume failed log device
This patch removes the possibility of having uninitialized log state if the
log device has failed.
When a mirror resumes operation, it calls 'resume' on the logging module. If
disk based logging is being used, the log device is read to fill in the log
state. If the log device has failed, we cannot simply return, because this
would leave the in-memory log state uninitialized. Instead, we assume all
regions are out-of-sync and reset the log state. Failure to do this could
result in the logging code reporting a region as in-sync, even though it
isn't; which could result in a corrupted mirror.

SLUB: add CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG can be used to switch off the debugging and sysfs components
of SLUB. Thus SLUB will be able to replace SLOB. SLUB can arrange objects in
a denser way than SLOB and the code size should be minimal without debugging
and sysfs support.
Note that CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is materially different from CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG.
CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG is used to enable slab debugging in SLAB. SLUB enables
debugging via a boot parameter. SLUB debug code should always be present.
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG can be modified in the embedded config section.

SLUB currently assumes that the cacheline size is static. However, i386 f.e.
supports dynamic cache line size determination.
Use cache_line_size() instead of L1_CACHE_BYTES in the allocator.
That also explains the purpose of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN. So we will need to keep
that one around to allow dynamic aligning of objects depending on boot
determination of the cache line size.

Documentation/i386/boot.txt: update and correct
In the process of rewriting the x86 setup code, I found a number of
inaccuracies and outdated recommendations in the boot protocol
documentation. Revamp to make it more up to date.
In particular, the common use of the heap actually requires (slightly)
more than 4K of heap plus stack, which is the recommended amount in
the document; currently the code compensates by being smaller than
specified, but we can't assume that will be true forever. Thus,
recommend that if we have a modern bzImage kernel, that the bootloader
maximizes the available space.
