In this way, the signalfd remain attached to the sighand only during

all the custom "tsk == current" checks in kernel/signal.c, since
dequeue_signal() will only be called by "current".
I think this is also what Ben was suggesting time ago.
The external effect of this, is that a thread can extract only its own

behaviour, in that those are the signals the thread would be able to
fetch w/out signalfd.

[PPP] L2TP: Fix skb handling in pppol2tp_xmit
This patch makes pppol2tp_xmit call skb_cow_head so that we don't modify
cloned skb data. It also gets rid of skb2 we only need to preserve the
original skb for congestion notification, which is only applicable for
ppp_async and ppp_sync.
The other semantic change made here is the removal of socket accounting
for data tranmitted out of pppol2tp_xmit. The original code leaked any
existing socket skb accounting. We could fix this by dropping the
original skb owner. However, this is undesirable as the packet has not
physically left the host yet.
In fact, all other tunnels in the kernel do not account skb's passing
through to their own socket. In partciular, ESP over UDP does not do
so and it is the closest tunnel type to PPPoL2TP. So this patch simply
removes the socket accounting in pppol2tp_xmit. The accounting still
applies to control packets of course.

Randy Dunlap noticed an interesting "crashme" behaviour on his dual

mode.
This may be a CPU microcode buglet triggered by some strange instruction
pattern that crashme generates, and loading a microcode update seems to
possibly have fixed it.
Regardless, we really should trust the register state more than the
error code, since it's really the register state that determines whether
we can actually send a signal, or whether we're in kernel mode and need
to oops/kill the process in the case of a page fault.

uml: fix irqstack crash
This patch fixes a crash caused by an interrupt coming in when an IRQ stack
is being torn down. When this happens, handle_signal will loop, setting up
the IRQ stack again because the tearing down had finished, and handling
whatever signals had come in.
However, to_irq_stack returns a mask of pending signals to be handled, plus
bit zero is set if the IRQ stack was already active, and thus shouldn't be
torn down. This causes a problem because when handle_signal goes around
the loop, sig will be zero, and to_irq_stack will duly set bit zero in the
returned mask, faking handle_signal into believing that it shouldn't tear
down the IRQ stack and return thread_info pointers back to their original
values.
This will eventually cause a crash, as the IRQ stack thread_info will
continue pointing to the original task_struct and an interrupt will look
into it after it has been freed.
The fix is to stop passing a signal number into to_irq_stack. Rather, the
pending signals mask is initialized beforehand with the bit for sig already
set. References to sig in to_irq_stack can be replaced with references to
the mask.

Fix NUMA Memory Policy Reference Counting
This patch proposes fixes to the reference counting of memory policy in the
page allocation paths and in show_numa_map(). Extracted from my "Memory
Policy Cleanups and Enhancements" series as stand-alone.
Shared policy lookup [shmem] has always added a reference to the policy,
but this was never unrefed after page allocation or after formatting the
numa map data.
Default system policy should not require additional ref counting, nor
should the current task's task policy. However, show_numa_map() calls
get_vma_policy() to examine what may be [likely is] another task's policy.
The latter case needs protection against freeing of the policy.
This patch adds a reference count to a mempolicy returned by
get_vma_policy() when the policy is a vma policy or another task's
mempolicy. Again, shared policy is already reference counted on lookup. A
matching "unref" [__mpol_free()] is performed in alloc_page_vma() for
shared and vma policies, and in show_numa_map() for shared and another
task's mempolicy. We can call __mpol_free() directly, saving an admittedly
inexpensive inline NULL test, because we know we have a non-NULL policy.
Handling policy ref counts for hugepages is a bit trickier.
huge_zonelist() returns a zone list that might come from a shared or vma
'BIND policy. In this case, we should hold the reference until after the
huge page allocation in dequeue_hugepage(). The patch modifies
huge_zonelist() to return a pointer to the mempolicy if it needs to be
unref'd after allocation.

Fix user namespace exiting OOPs
It turned out, that the user namespace is released during the do_exit() in
exit_task_namespaces(), but the struct user_struct is released only during the
put_task_struct(), i.e. MUCH later.
On debug kernels with poisoned slabs this will cause the oops in
uid_hash_remove() because the head of the chain, which resides inside the
struct user_namespace, will be already freed and poisoned.
Since the uid hash itself is required only when someone can search it, i.e.
when the namespace is alive, we can safely unhash all the user_struct-s from
it during the namespace exiting. The subsequent free_uid() will complete the
user_struct destruction.
