thermal: support forcing support for passive cooling
Due to poor thermal design or Linux driving hardware outside its thermal
envelope, some systems will reach critical temperature and shut down
under high load. This patch adds support for forcing a polling-based
passive trip point if the firmware doesn't provide one. The assumption
is made that the processor is the most practical means to reduce the
dynamic heat generation, so hitting the passive thermal limit will cause
the CPU to be throttled until the temperature stabalises around the
defined value.
UI is provided via a "passive" sysfs entry in the thermal zone
directory. It accepts a decimal value in millidegrees celsius, or "0" to
disable the functionality. Default behaviour is for this functionality
to be disabled.

This patch makes acpi_init() call acpi_wakeup_device_init() directly.

acpi_wakeup_device_init() depends on acpi_wakeup_device_list, which

acpi_scan_init(). Using late_initcall is certainly enough to make

acpi_init()

fix ptrace slowness
This patch fixes bug #12208:
Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12208
Subject : uml is very slow on 2.6.28 host
This turned out to be not a scheduler regression, but an already
existing problem in ptrace being triggered by subtle scheduler
changes.
The problem is this:
- task A is ptracing task B
- task B stops on a trace event
- task A is woken up and preempts task B
- task A calls ptrace on task B, which does ptrace_check_attach()
- this calls wait_task_inactive(), which sees that task B is still on the runq
- task A goes to sleep for a jiffy
- ...
Since UML does lots of the above sequences, those jiffies quickly add
up to make it slow as hell.
This patch solves this by not rescheduling in read_unlock() after
ptrace_stop() has woken up the tracer.

This patch fixes the issue by removing offending (and somewhat
duplicate) code from init_phy() routine, and changes _probe()
function to use uec_mdio_bus_name().
Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine,
we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in
ucc_geth_info structure.
I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only
way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been
tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions
expected.

This fixes a locking bug in the dm9000 driver. It calls
request_irq() without setting IRQF_DISABLED ... which is
correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that
behavior is not guaranteed for shared IRQs. However, its
IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked.
So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the
IRQ handler.

lockdep currently masks by forcibly setting IRQF_DISABLED

eCryptfs: Allocate a variable number of pages for file headers
When allocating the memory used to store the eCryptfs header contents, a
single, zeroed page was being allocated with get_zeroed_page().
However, the size of an eCryptfs header is either PAGE_CACHE_SIZE or
ECRYPTFS_MINIMUM_HEADER_EXTENT_SIZE (8192), whichever is larger, and is
stored in the file's private_data->crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front
field.
ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents() was using
num_header_bytes_at_front to decide how many bytes should be written to
the lower filesystem for the file header. Unfortunately, at least 8K
was being written from the page, despite the chance of the single,
zeroed page being smaller than 8K. This resulted in random areas of
kernel memory being written between the 0x1000 and 0x1FFF bytes offsets
in the eCryptfs file headers if PAGE_SIZE was 4K.
This patch allocates a variable number of pages, calculated with
num_header_bytes_at_front, and passes the number of allocated pages
along to ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents().
Thanks to Florian Streibelt for reporting the data leak and working with

Note that the code is a bit blunt, without timeout, etc... but that's

aio: lookup_ioctx can return the wrong value when looking up a bogus context
The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a
bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list
(harness/cases/3.p).
Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process
exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio
(since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0).
The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless"
(commit
abf137dd7712132ee56d5b3143c2ff61a72a5faa).
Thanks to Zach for pointing out that hlist_for_each_entry_rcu will not
return with a NULL tpos at the end of the loop, even if the entry was
not found.

eventfd: remove fput() call from possible IRQ context
Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context. Myself, like Eric,
wasn't able to reproduce an fput() call from IRQ context, but Jeff said he was
able to, with the attached test program. Independently from this, the bug is
conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it. This patch adds an
optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd.
Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative
here would be to add a brand new delayed fput() infrastructure, that I'm not
sure is worth it.

Move cc-option to below arch-specific setup
Sam Ravnborg says:
"We have several architectures that plays strange games with $(CC) and
$(CROSS_COMPILE).
So we need to postpone any use of $(call cc-option..) until we have
included the arch specific Makefile so we try with the correct $(CC)
version."

Fix race in create_empty_buffers() vs __set_page_dirty_buffers()
Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page
dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping
private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure
that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without
the dirty bits set when the page is dirty.
I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue
Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve
a real race, which we should close."
