htab_bolt_mapping() takes a vstart and pstart parameter, but all but one of
its callers actually pass it vstart and vstart. Luckily before it passes
paddr (calculated from paddr) to the hpte_insert routines it calls
virt_to_abs() (aka. __pa()) on the address, so there isn't actually a bug.
map_io_page() however does pass pstart properly, so currently it's broken
AFAICT because we're calling __pa(paddr) which will get us something very
large. Presumably no one's calling map_io_page() in the right context.
Anyway, change htab_bolt_mapping() callers to properly pass pstart, and then
use it properly in htab_bolt_mapping(), ie. don't call __pa() on it again.

powerpc: Fix problem with time going backwards
The recent changes to keep gettimeofday in sync with xtime had the side
effect that it was occasionally possible for the time reported by
gettimeofday to go back by a microsecond. There were two reasons:
(1) when we recalculated the offsets used by gettimeofday every 2^31
timebase ticks, we lost an accumulated fractional microsecond, and
(2) because the update is done some time after the notional start of
jiffy, if ntp is slowing the clock, it is possible to see time go backwards
when the timebase factor gets reduced.
This fixes it by (a) slowing the gettimeofday clock by about 1us in
2^31 timebase ticks (a factor of less than 1 in 3.7 million), and (b)
adjusting the timebase offsets in the rare case that the gettimeofday
result could possibly go backwards (i.e. when ntp is slowing the clock
and the timer interrupt is late). In this case the adjustment will
reduce to zero eventually because of (a).
This fixes not one, but _two_, silly (but admittedly hard to hit) bugs
in the ext2 filesystem "readdir()" function. It also cleans up the code
to avoid the unnecessary goto mess.
The bugs were related to re-valiating the f_pos value after somebody had
either done an "lseek()" on the directory to an invalid offset, or when
the offset had become invalid due to a file being unlinked in the
directory. The code would not only set the f_version too eagerly, it
would also not update f_pos appropriately for when the offset fixup took
place.
When that happened, we'd occasionally subsequently fail the readdir()
even when we shouldn't (no real harm done, but an ugly printk, and
obviously you would end up not necessarily seeing all entries).
Thanks to Masoud Sharbiani <masouds@google.com> who noticed the problem
and had a test-case for it, and also fixed up a thinko in the first

[PATCH] NFS: Fix a potential panic in O_DIRECT
Based on an original patch by Mike O'Connor and Greg Banks of SGI.
Mike states:
A normal user can panic an NFS client and cause a local DoS with
'judicious'(?) use of O_DIRECT. Any O_DIRECT write to an NFS file where the
user buffer starts with a valid mapped page and contains an unmapped page,
will crash in this way. I haven't followed the code, but O_DIRECT reads with
similar user buffers will probably also crash albeit in different ways.
Details: when nfs_get_user_pages() calls get_user_pages(), it detects and
correctly handles get_user_pages() returning an error, which happens if the
first page covered by the user buffer's address range is unmapped. However,
if the first page is mapped but some subsequent page isn't, get_user_pages()
will return a positive number which is less than the number of pages requested
(this behaviour is sort of analagous to a short write() call and appears to be
intentional). nfs_get_user_pages() doesn't detect this and hands off the
array of pages (whose last few elements are random rubbish from the newly
allocated array memory) to it's caller, whence they go to
nfs_direct_write_seg(), which then totally ignores the nr_pages it's given,
and calculates its own idea of how many pages are in the array from the user
buffer length. Needless to say, when it comes to transmit those uninitialised
page* pointers, we see a crash in the network stack.

[PATCH] Fix sigaltstack corruption among cloned threads
This patch fixes alternate signal stack corruption among cloned threads
with CLONE_SIGHAND (and CLONE_VM) for linux-2.6.16-rc6.
The value of alternate signal stack is currently inherited after a call of
clone(... CLONE_SIGHAND | CLONE_VM). But if sigaltstack is set by a
parent thread, and then if multiple cloned child threads (+ parent threads)
call signal handler at the same time, some threads may be conflicted -
because they share to use the same alternative signal stack region.
Finally they get sigsegv. It's an undesirable race condition. Note that
child threads created from NPTL pthread_create() also hit this conflict
when the parent thread uses sigaltstack, without my patch.
To fix this problem, this patch clears the child threads' sigaltstack
information like exec(). This behavior follows the SUSv3 specification.
In SUSv3, pthread_create() says "The alternate stack shall not be inherited
(when new threads are initialized)". It means that sigaltstack should be
cleared when sigaltstack memory space is shared by cloned threads with
CLONE_SIGHAND.
Note that I chose "if (clone_flags & CLONE_SIGHAND)" line because:
- If clone_flags line is not existed, fork() does not inherit sigaltstack.
- CLONE_VM is another choice, but vfork() does not inherit sigaltstack.
- CLONE_SIGHAND implies CLONE_VM, and it looks suitable.
- CLONE_THREAD is another candidate, and includes CLONE_SIGHAND + CLONE_VM,
but this flag has a bit different semantics.
I decided to use CLONE_SIGHAND.

[PATCH] x86-64: Fix up handling of non canonical user RIPs
EM64T CPUs have somewhat weird error reporting for non canonical RIPs in
SYSRET.
We can't handle any exceptions there because the exception handler would
end up running on the user stack which is unsafe.
To avoid problems any code that might end up with a user touched pt_regs
should return using int_ret_from_syscall. int_ret_from_syscall ends up
using IRET, which allows safe exceptions.

[ARM] iwmmxt thread state alignment
This patch removes the reliance of iwmmxt on hand coded alignments.
Since thread_info is always 8K aligned, specifying that fpstate is
8-byte aligned achieves the same effect without needing to resort
to hand coded alignments.

[IPV6]: fix ipv6_saddr_score struct element
The scope element in the ipv6_saddr_score struct used in
ipv6_dev_get_saddr() is an unsigned integer, but __ipv6_addr_src_scope()
returns a signed integer (and can return -1).
