[PATCH] missing dependency on arm O= builds

arm maketools needs include/asm-arm in place in the build tree.
On normal builds it's always there, of course, but on O= it's created
(by generic code) too late - when we get to asm-offset.h.

We used to get away with that by accident - creation of
include/asm-arm/arch symlink creates include/asm-arm and it happened
to go before maketools.  However, we did not have such dependency,
so that luck didn't last - now maketools is picked first and we are screwed.

Both the symlink and maketools are prerequisites of the same
target (archprepare).  This fix is obvious - make the latter explicitly
depend on the former and be done with that.

[NETFILTER]: Fix invalid module autoloading by splitting iptable_nat

When you've enabled conntrack and NAT as a module (standard case in all
distributions), and you've also enabled the new conntrack netlink
interface, loading ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will auto-load iptable_nat.ko.
This causes a huge performance penalty, since for every packet you iterate
the nat code, even if you don't want it.

This patch splits iptable_nat.ko into the NAT core (ip_nat.ko) and the
iptables frontend (iptable_nat.ko).  Threfore, ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will
only pull ip_nat.ko, but not the frontend.  ip_nat.ko will "only" allocate
some resources, but not affect runtime performance.

This separation is also a nice step in anticipation of new packet filters
(nf-hipac, ipset, pkttables) being able to use the NAT core.

line-size.  Use them in cache flushes when appropriate.

This change was motivated by discovering that the D-cache on
UltraSparc-IIIi and later are 64K not 32K, and the flushes done by the
Cheetah error handlers were assuming a 32K size.

There are still some pieces of code that are hard coding things and
will need to be fixed up at some point.

 xor %g2, %g4, %g5

succeeded by an instruction sequence which performs a full page table
walk starting at swapper_pg_dir.

We first take over the trap table from the firmware.  Then, using this
constant PTE generation for the linear mapping area above, we build
the kernel page tables for the linear mapping.

After this is setup, we patch that branch above into a "nop", which
will cause TLB misses to fall through to the full page table walk.

[NETFILTER] Fix conntrack event cache deadlock/oops

This patch fixes a number of bugs.  It cannot be reasonably split up in
multiple fixes, since all bugs interact with each other and affect the same
function:

Bug #1:
The event cache code cannot be called while a lock is held.  Therefore, the
call to ip_conntrack_event_cache() within ip_ct_refresh_acct() needs to be
moved outside of the locked section.  This fixes a number of 2.6.14-rcX
oops and deadlock reports.

Bug #2:
We used to call ct_add_counters() for unconfirmed connections without
holding a lock.  Since the add operations are not atomic, we could race
with another CPU.

Bug #3:
ip_ct_refresh_acct() lost REFRESH events in some cases where refresh
(and the corresponding event) are desired, but no accounting shall be
performed.  Both, evenst and accounting implicitly depended on the skb
parameter bein non-null.   We now re-introduce a non-accounting
"ip_ct_refresh()" variant to explicitly state the desired behaviour.

19 years ago[TCP]: Adjust Reno SACK estimate in tcp_fragment

[TCP]: Adjust Reno SACK estimate in tcp_fragment

Since the introduction of TSO pcount a year ago, it has been possible
for tcp_fragment() to cause packets_out to decrease.  Prior to that,
tcp_retrans_try_collapse() was the only way for that to happen on the
retransmission path.

When this happens with Reno, it is possible for sasked_out to become
invalid because it is only an estimate and not tied to any particular
packet on the retransmission queue.

Therefore we need to adjust sacked_out as well as left_out in the Reno
case.  The following patch does exactly that.

This bug is pretty difficult to trigger in practice though since you
need a SACKless peer with a retransmission that occurs just as the
cached MTU value expires.

[PATCH] Fix bd_claim() error code.

Problem: In some circumstances, bd_claim() is returning the wrong error
code.

If we try to swapon an unused block device that isn't swap formatted, we
get -EINVAL.  But if that same block device is already mounted, we instead
get -EBUSY, even though it still isn't a valid swap device.

This issue came up on the busybox list trying to get the error message
from "swapon -a" right.  If a swap device is already enabled, we get -EBUSY,
and we shouldn't report this as an error.  But we can't distinguish the two
-EBUSY conditions, which are very different errors.

In the code, bd_claim() returns either 0 or -EBUSY, but in this case busy
means "somebody other than sys_swapon has already claimed this", and
_that_ means this block device can't be a valid swap device.  So return
-EINVAL there.

[PATCH] uml: avoid fixing faults while atomic

Following i386, we should maybe refuse trying to fault in pages when we're
doing atomic operations, because to handle the fault we could need to take
already taken spinlocks.

Also, if we're doing an atomic operation (in the sense of in_atomic()) we're
surely in kernel mode and we're surely going to handle adequately the failed
fault, so it's safe to behave this way.

Currently, on UML SMP is rarely used, and we don't support PREEMPT, so this is
unlikely to create problems right now, but it might in the future.

[PATCH] uml: fix hang in TT mode on fault

The current code doesn't handle well general protection faults on the host -
it thinks that cr2 is always the address of a page fault.  While actually, on
general protection faults, that address is not accessible, so we'd better
assume we couldn't satisfy the fault.  Currently instead we think we've fixed
it, so we go back, retry the instruction and fault again endlessly.

This leads to the kernel hanging when doing copy_from_user(dest, -1, ...) in
TT mode, since reading *(-1) causes a GFP, and we don't support kernel
preemption.
