netfilter ebtables: fix xt_AUDIT to work with ebtables
Even though ebtables uses xtables it still requires targets to
return EBT_CONTINUE instead of XT_CONTINUE. This prevented

Upon Jan's suggestion, use a separate struct xt_target for
NFPROTO_BRIDGE having its own target callback returning
EBT_CONTINUE instead of cloning the module.

Increase OSF partition limit from 8 to 18
It turns out that while a maximum of 8 partitions may be what people
"should" have had, you can actually fit up to 18 entries(*) in a sector.
And some people clearly were taking advantage of that, like Michael
Cree, who had ten partitions on one of his OSF disks.
(*) The OSF partition data starts at byte offset 64 in the first sector,
and the array of 16-byte partition entries start at offset 148 in
the on-disk partition structure.

prune back iprune_sem
iprune_sem is continously giving us lockdep warnings because we do take it in
read mode in the reclaim path, but we're also doing non-NOFS allocations under
it taken in write mode.
Taking a bit deeper look at it I think it's fixable quite trivially:
- for invalidate_inodes we do not need iprune_sem at all. We have an active
reference on the superblock, so the filesystem is not going away until it
has finished.
- for evict_inodes we do need it, to make sure prune_icache has done it's
work before we tear down the superblock. But there is no reason to
hold it over the actual reclaim operation - it's enough to cycle through
it after the actual reclaim to make sure we wait for any pending
prune_icache to complete. We just have to remove the WARN_ON for
otherwise busy inodes as they can actually happen now.

x86, AMD: Set ARAT feature on AMD processors
Support for Always Running APIC timer (ARAT) was introduced in
commit
db954b5898dd3ef3ef93f4144158ea8f97deb058. This feature
allows us to avoid switching timers from LAPIC to something else
(e.g. HPET) and go into timer broadcasts when entering deep
C-states.
AMD processors don't provide a CPUID bit for that feature but
they also keep APIC timers running in deep C-states (except for
cases when the processor is affected by erratum 400). Therefore
we should set ARAT feature bit on AMD CPUs.

xen network backend driver
netback is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in
drivers/net/xen-netfront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by
frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs and even Windows.
The patch is based on the driver from the xen.git pvops kernel tree but
has been put through the checkpatch.pl wringer plus several manual
cleanup passes and review iterations. The driver has been moved from
drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback.
One major change from xen.git is that the guest transmit path (i.e. what
looks like receive to netback) has been significantly reworked to remove
the dependency on the out of tree PageForeign page flag (a core kernel
patch which enables a per page destructor callback on the final
put_page). This page flag was used in order to implement a grant map
based transmit path (where guest pages are mapped directly into SKB
frags). Instead this version of netback uses grant copy operations into
regular memory belonging to the backend domain. Reinstating the grant
map functionality is something which I would like to revisit in the
future.
Note that this driver depends on
2e820f58f7ad "xen/irq: implement
bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler for backend drivers" which is in
linux next via the "xen-two" tree and is intended for the 2.6.39 merge
window:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/backends
this branch has only that single commit since 2.6.38-rc2 and is safe for
cross merging into the net branch.

bonding: Improve syslog message at device creation time
When the bonding module is loaded, it creates bond0 by default.
Then, when attempting to create bond0, the following messages
are printed to syslog:
kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created...

Which seems to indicate a problem, when in reality there is no
problem. Since the actual error code is passed down from bond_create,

When packets come in from a device with >= 16 receive queues
headed out a bonding interface, syslog gets filled with this:
kernel: bond0 selects TX queue 16, but real number of TX queues is 16

This is a revision of my earlier patch (which did not use the

Andy submitted a similar patch which emits a pr_warning on

VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38
The new vfs locking scheme introduced in 2.6.38 breaks NFS sillyrename
because the latter relies on being able to determine the parent
directory of the dentry in the ->iput() callback in order to send the
appropriate unlink rpc call.
Looking at the code that cares about races with dput(), there doesn't
seem to be anything that specifically uses d_parent as a test for
whether or not there is a race:
- __d_lookup_rcu(), __d_lookup() all test for d_hashed() after d_parent
- shrink_dcache_for_umount() is safe since nothing else can rearrange
the dentries in that super block.
- have_submount(), select_parent() and d_genocide() can test for a
deletion if we set the DCACHE_DISCONNECTED flag when the dentry
is removed from the parent's d_subdirs list.
