The problem is that the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag is loaded _before_ the
preemption count is stored back, hence any interrupt coming within that
3 instruction window causing TIF_NEED_RESCHED to be set won't be
seen and scheduling won't happen as it should.
Nothing currently prevents gcc from performing that reordering. There
is already a barrier() before the decrement of the preemption count, but
another one is needed between this and the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag test
for proper code ordering.

[IPSEC]: Fix policy updates missed by sockets
The problem is that when new policies are inserted, sockets do not see
the update (but all new route lookups do).
This bug is related to the SA insertion stale route issue solved
recently, and this policy visibility problem can be fixed in a similar
way.
The fix is to flush out the bundles of all policies deeper than the
policy being inserted. Consider beginning state of "outgoing"
direction policy list:
policy A --> policy B --> policy C --> policy D
First, realize that inserting a policy into a list only potentially
changes IPSEC routes for that direction. Therefore we need not bother
considering the policies for other directions. We need only consider
the existing policies in the list we are doing the inserting.
Consider new policy "B'", inserted after B.
policy A --> policy B --> policy B' --> policy C --> policy D
Two rules:
1) If policy A or policy B matched before the insertion, they
appear before B' and thus would still match after inserting
B'
2) Policy C and D, now "shadowed" and after policy B', potentially
contain stale routes because policy B' might be selected
instead of them.
Therefore we only need flush routes assosciated with policies
appearing after a newly inserted policy, if any.

powerpc: Fix i8259 cascade on pSeries with XICS interrupt controller
It turns out that commit f9bd170a87948a9e077149b70fb192c563770fdf
broke the cascade from XICS to i8259 on pSeries machines; specifically
we ended up not ever doing the EOI on the XICS for the cascade. The
result was that interrupts from the serial ports (and presumably any
other devices using ISA interrupts) didn't get through. This fixes
it and also simplifies the code, by doing the EOI on the XICS in the
xics_get_irq routine after reading and acking the interrupt on the
i8259.

[IPV6]: Fix address deletion
If you add more than one IPv6 address belonging to the same prefix and
delete the address that was last added, routing table entry for that
prefix is also deleted.
Tested on 2.6.14.4
To reproduce:
ip addr add 3ffe::1/64 dev eth0
ip addr add 3ffe::2/64 dev eth0
/* wait DAD */
sleep 1
ip addr del 3ffe::2/64 dev eth0
ip -6 route
(route to 3ffe::/64 should be gone)
In ipv6_del_addr(), if ifa == ifp, we set ifa->if_next to NULL, and later
assign ifap = &ifa->if_next, effectively terminating the for-loop.
This prevents us from checking if there are other addresses using the same
prefix that are valid, and thus resulting in deletion of the prefix.
This applies only if the first entry in idev->addr_list is the address to
be deleted.

[PATCH] USB Storage: Force starget->scsi_level in usb-storage scsiglue.c
When the usb-storage module forces sdev->scsi_level to SCSI_2, it should
also force starget->scsi_level to the same value. Otherwise, the SCSI
layer may attempt to issue SCSI-3 commands to the device, such as REPORT
LUNS, which it cannot handle. This can prevent the device from working
with Linux.
The AMS Venus DS3 DS2316SU2S SATA-to-SATA+USB enclosure, based on the
Oxford Semiconductor OXU921S chip, requires this patch to function
correctly on Linux. The enclosure reports a SCSI-3 SPC-2 command set

The g5 thermal control for liquid cooled machines has a small bug, when
the temperatures gets too high, it boosts all fans to the max, but
incorrectly sets the liquids pump to the min instead of the max speed,
thus causing the overtemp condition not to clear and the machine to shut
down after a while. This fixes it to set the pumps to max speed instead.
This problem might explain some of the reports of random shutdowns that
some g5 users have been reporting in the past.
Many thanks to Marcus Rothe for spending a lot of time trying various
patches & sending log logs before I found out that typo. Note that
overtemp handling is still not perfect and the machine might still
shutdown, that patch should reduce if not eliminate such occcurences in
"normal" conditions with high load. I'll implement a better handling
with proper slowing down of the CPUs later.
