Make nandsim use GFP_NOFS when allocating memory, because it might

to the media, reaches this place in NANDsim, kmalloc does not find
the requested amount of RAM, calls memory shrinker, which decides
to writeback inodes, calls FS, and it deadlocks on the lock which
is already being held. Below is the UBIFS backtrace which
demonstrates that:
The deadlock is funny because it starts in pdflush/writeback,
and comes back to writeback, then deadlocks. It seems we should look
carefully for other places in UBI and MTD and use GFP_NOFS instead
of GFP_KERNEL.

Apply memory policies to top two highest zones when highest zone is ZONE_MOVABLE
The NUMA layer only supports NUMA policies for the highest zone. When
ZONE_MOVABLE is configured with kernelcore=, the the highest zone becomes
ZONE_MOVABLE. The result is that policies are only applied to allocations
like anonymous pages and page cache allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE when the
zone is used.
This patch applies policies to the two highest zones when the highest zone
is ZONE_MOVABLE. As ZONE_MOVABLE consists of pages from the highest "real"
zone, it's always functionally equivalent.
The patch has been tested on a variety of machines both NUMA and non-NUMA
covering x86, x86_64 and ppc64. No abnormal results were seen in
kernbench, tbench, dbench or hackbench. It passes regression tests from
the numactl package with and without kernelcore= once numactl tests are

would only use a single zonelist per node and filter on the fly. That may

autofs4: deadlock during create
Due to inconsistent locking in the VFS between calls to lookup and
revalidate deadlock can occur in the automounter.
The inconsistency is that the directory inode mutex is held for both lookup
and revalidate calls when called via lookup_hash whereas it is held only
for lookup during a path walk. Consequently, if the mutex is held during a
call to revalidate autofs4 can't release the mutex to callback the daemon
as it can't know whether it owns the mutex.
This situation happens when a process tries to create a directory within an
automount and a second process also tries to create the same directory
between the lookup and the mkdir. Since the first process has dropped the
mutex for the daemon callback, the second process takes it during
revalidate leading to deadlock between the autofs daemon and the second
process when the daemon tries to create the mount point directory.
After spending quite a bit of time trying to resolve this on more than one
occassion, using rather complex and ulgy approaches, it turns out that just
delaying the hashing of the dentry until the create operation works fine.

synchronous lumpy reclaim: wait for page writeback when directly reclaiming contiguous areas
Lumpy reclaim works by selecting a lead page from the LRU list and then
selecting pages for reclaim from the order-aligned area of pages. In the
situation were all pages in that region are inactive and not referenced by any
process over time, it works well.
In the situation where there is even light load on the system, the pages may
not free quickly. Out of a area of 1024 pages, maybe only 950 of them are
freed when the allocation attempt occurs because lumpy reclaim returned early.
This patch alters the behaviour of direct reclaim for large contiguous
blocks.
The first attempt to call shrink_page_list() is asynchronous but if it fails,
the pages are submitted a second time and the calling process waits for the IO
to complete. This may stall allocators waiting for contiguous memory but that
should be expected behaviour for high-order users. It is preferable behaviour
to potentially queueing unnecessary areas for IO. Note that kswapd will not
stall in this fashion.

synchronous lumpy reclaim: ensure we count pages transitioning inactive via clear_active_flags
As pointed out by Mel when reclaim is applied at higher orders a significant
amount of IO may be started. As this takes finite time to drain reclaim will
consider more areas than ultimatly needed to satisfy the request. This leads
to more reclaim than strictly required and reduced success rates.
I was able to confirm Mel's test results on systems locally. These show that
even under light load the success rates drop off far more than expected.
Testing with a modified version of his patch (which follows) I was able to
allocate almost all of ZONE_MOVABLE with a near idle system. I ran 5 test
passes sequentially following system boot (the system has 29 hugepages in
ZONE_MOVABLE):
2.6.23-rc1 11 8 6 7 7
sync_lumpy 28 28 29 29 26
These show that although hugely better than the near 0% success normally
expected we can only allocate about a 1/4 of the zone. Using synchronous
reclaim for these allocations we get close to 100% as expected.
I have also run our standard high order tests and these show no regressions in
allocation success rates at rest, and some significant improvements under
load.

Add blacklisting capability to serial_pci to avoid misdetection of serial ports
The serial_pci driver tries to guess serial ports on unknown devices based
on the PCI class (modem or serial). On certain softmodems (AC'97 modems)
this can lead to the recognition of non-existing serial ports.
This patch adds a blacklist of PCI IDs that are to be ignored by the driver.

Serial 8250: handle saving the clear-on-read bits from the LSR and MSR
Reading the LSR clears the break, parity, frame error, and overrun bits in
the 8250 chip, but these are not being saved in all places that read the
LSR. Same goes for the MSR delta bits. Save the LSR bits off whenever the
lsr is read so they can be handled later in the receive routine. Save the
MSR bits to be handled in the modem status routine.
Also, clear the stored bits and clear the interrupt registers before
enabling interrupts, to avoid handling old values of the stored bits in the
