[PATCH] ext[34]: EA block reference count racing fix
There are race issues around ext[34] xattr block release code.
ext[34]_xattr_release_block() checks the reference count of xattr block
(h_refcount) and frees that xattr block if it is the last one reference it.
Unlike ext2, the check of this counter is unprotected by any lock.
ext[34]_xattr_release_block() will free the mb_cache entry before freeing
that xattr block. There is a small window between the check for the re
h_refcount ==1 and the call to mb_cache_entry_free(). During this small
window another inode might find this xattr block from the mbcache and reuse
it, racing a refcount updates. The xattr block will later be freed by the
first inode without notice other inode is still use it. Later if that
block is reallocated as a datablock for other file, then more serious
problem might happen.
We need put a lock around places checking the refount as well to avoid
racing issue. Another place need this kind of protection is in
ext3_xattr_block_set(), where it will modify the xattr block content in-
the-fly if the refcount is 1 (means it's the only inode reference it).
This will also fix another issue: the xattr block may not get freed at all
if no lock is to protect the refcount check at the release time. It is
possible that the last two inodes could release the shared xattr block at
the same time. But both of them think they are not the last one so only
decreased the h_refcount without freeing xattr block at all.
We need to call lock_buffer() after ext3_journal_get_write_access() to
avoid deadlock (because the later will call lock_buffer()/unlock_buffer
() as well).

[PATCH] uml: host VDSO fix
This fixes a problem seen by a number of people running UML on newer host
kernels. init would hang with an infinite segfault loop.
It turns out that the host kernel was providing a AT_SYSINFO_EHDR of
0xffffe000, which faked UML into believing that the host VDSO page could be
reused. However, AT_SYSINFO pointed into the middle of the address space, and
was unmapped as a result. Because UML was providing AT_SYSINFO_EHDR and
AT_SYSINFO to its own processes, these would branch to nowhere when trying to
use the VDSO.
The fix is to also check the location of AT_SYSINFO when deciding whether to
use the host's VDSO.

There are two errors that can lead to recovery problems with raid10

Due to a '>' instead of '>=' the wrong block is located which would result in
garbage being written to some random location, quite possible outside the
range of the device, causing the newly reconstructed device to fail.
The device size calculation had some rounding errors (it didn't round when it
should) and so recovery would go a few blocks too far which would again cause
a write to a random block address and probably a device error.
The code for working with device sizes was fairly confused and spread out, so
this has been tided up a bit.

field only exists in SMP things broke.
Thanks to Simon Arlott <simon@arlott.org> for spotting this.
There are a couple of ways to fix this but the simplest one
is to just remove the assignments. The affinity field is only
used to display a value to the user, and nothing on either i386
or x86_64 reads it or depends on it being any particlua value,
so skipping the assignment is safe. The assignment that
is being removed is just for the initial affinity value before
the user explicitly sets it. The irq_desc array initializes
this field to CPU_MASK_ALL so the field is initialized to
a reasonable value in the SMP case without being set.

qla3xxx: Check return code from pci_map_single() in ql_release_to_lrg_buf_free_list(), ql_populate_free_queue(), ql_alloc_large_buffers(), and ql3xxx_send()
pci_map_single() could fail. We need to properly check the return
code from pci_map_single(). If we can not properly map this address,
then we should cleanup and return the proper return code.

qla3xxx: Remove API to change MTU.
This network device driver shares the same hardware as the qla4xxx
iSCSI driver. Changing the MTU via the device interface will
cause qla4xxx to crash as there is no way to make notification.
Users wishing to change the MTU must do so using an iSCSI
utility such as Qlogic SanSurfer. This forces the user to
unload/reload this network device driver after the MTU
value has been changed in flash.

qla3xxx: Remove unnecessary memset() in qla3xxx_send()
We do not need to zero out the 64 byte MAC request I/O control block.
By zeroing out the control block and setting it to proper fields is
redundant work. This is because in the qla3xxx_send() function we will
already set the proper fields in this structure. The unused fields are
not looked at by the hardware and do not need to be zeroed out.

qla3xxx: Return proper error codes when the 4022/4032 is being probed
The return code was not properly set when when allocating memory or mapping
memory failed. Depending on the stack, the return code would sometimes
return 0, which indicates everything was ok, when in fact there was an error.
This would cause trouble when the module was removed. Now, we will pass
back the proper return code when an error occurs during the PCI probe.

It looks like the skge driver inherited another bug from the sk98lin code.
If I send from 1000mbit port to a machine on 100mbit port, the switch should
be doing hardware flow control, but no pause frames show up in the statistics.
This is the analog of the recent sky2 fixes. The device needs to listen
for multicast pause frames and then not discard them.

spidernet: fix racy double-free of skb
It appears that under certain circumstances, a race will result
in a double-free of an skb. This patch null's out the skb pointer
upon the skb free, avoiding the inadvertent deref of bogus data.
The next patch fixes the actual race.

sungem_phy: support bcm5461 phy, autoneg.
This version moves the medium variable to the card specific structure and
changes the GMII_* to BCM54XX_* #defines.
This patch adds improved version of enable_fiber for both the 5421 and
the 5461 phy. It is now possible to specify with these wether you want
autonegotiation or not. This is needed for bladecenter switches where
some expect autonegotiation and some dont seem to like this at all.
Depending on this flag it sets phy->autoneg accordingly for the fiber mode.
More importantly it implements proper read_link and poll_link functions
for both phys which can handle both copper and fiber mode by determining
the medium first and then branching to the required functions. For fiber
they all work fine, for copper they are not tested but return the result
of the genmii_* function anyway which is supposed to work.
The patch moves the genmii_* functions around to avoid foreward declarations.
