[NET]: rtnl_link: fix use-after-free
When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.
The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.
With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use

Several of the Intel ethernet drivers keep an atomic counter used to
manage when to actually hit the hardware with a disable or an enable.
The way the net_rx_work() breakout logic works during a pending
napi_disable() is that it simply unschedules the poll even if it
still has work.
This can potentially leave interrupts disabled, but that is OK
because all of the drivers are about to disable interrupts
anyways in all such code paths that do a napi_disable().
Unfortunately, this trips up the semaphore used here in the Intel
drivers. If you hit this case, when you try to bring the interface
back up it won't enable interrupts. A reload of the driver module
fixes it of course.
So what we do is make sure all the sequences now go:

lockdep: fix workqueue creation API lockdep interaction
Dave Young reported warnings from lockdep that the workqueue API
can sometimes try to register lockdep classes with the same key
but different names. This is not permitted in lockdep.
Unfortunately, I was unaware of that restriction when I wrote
the code to debug workqueue problems with lockdep and used the
workqueue name as the lockdep class name. This can obviously
lead to the problem if the workqueue name is dynamic.
This patch solves the problem by always using a constant name
for the workqueue's lockdep class, namely either the constant
name that was passed in or a string consisting of the variable
name.

lockdep: fix internal double unlock during self-test
Lockdep, during self-test (when it was simulating double unlocks) was
sometimes unconditionally unlocking a spinlock when it had not been
locked. This won't work for ticket locks.

[IA64] Fix unaligned handler for floating point instructions with base update
The compiler team did the hard work for this distilling a problem in
large fortran application which showed up when applied to a 290MB input
data set down to this instruction:
ldfd f34=[r17],-8
Which they noticed incremented r17 by 0x10 rather than decrementing it
by 8 when the value in r17 caused an unaligned data fault. I tracked
it down to some bad instruction decoding in unaligned.c. The code
assumes that the 'x' bit can determine whether the instruction is
an "ldf" or "ldfp" ... which it is for opcode=6 (see table 4-29 on
page 3:302 of the SDM). But for opcode=7 the 'x' bit is irrelevent,
all variants are "ldf" instructions (see table 4-36 on page 3:306).
Note also that interpreting the instruction as "ldfp" means that the
"paired" floating point register (f35 in the example here) will also
be corrupted.

libata: correct handling of TSS DVD
Devices that misreport the validity bit for word 93 look like SATA. If
they are on the blacklist then we must not test for SATA but assume 40 wire
in the 40 wire case (The TSSCorp reports 80 wire on SATA it seems!)

libata fixes for sparse-found problems
In pata_legacy and pata_winbond we've got bugs - cpu_to_le16() instead
of cpu_to_le32(). Fortunately, both affected suckers are VLB, thus
l-e-only, so we might get away with that unless we hit it with slop == 3
(hadn't checked if playing with badly aligned sg could trigger that).
Still buggy... Moreover, pata_legacy, pata_winbond and pata_qdi forgot to
initialize pad on the write side of 32bit case in their ->data_xfer().
Hopefully the hardware does't care, but still, sending uninitialized
data to it...

This patch restores the blackfin Hardware Performance Monitor Profiling
support that was killed by the combining of instrumentation menus in
commit 09cadedbdc01f1a4bea1f427d4fb4642eaa19da9.
Since there seems to be no good reason to behave differently from other
architectures, it now automatically selects the hardware performance
counters whenever the profiling is activated.
mach-common/irqpanic.c: pm_overflow calls pm_overflow_handler which is
in oprofile/op_model_bf533.c. I doubt that setting HARDWARE_PM as "m"
will work at all, since the pm_overflow_handler should be in the core
kernel image because it is called by irqpanic.c.
Therefore, I change HARDWARE_PM from a tristate to a bool.
The whole arch/$(ARCH)/oprofile/ is built depending on CONFIG_OPROFILE. Since
part of the HARDWARE_PM support files sits in this directory, it makes sense to
also depend on OPROFILE, not only PROFILING. Since OPROFILE already depends on
PROFILING, it is correct to only depend on OPROFILE only.
Thanks to Adrian Bunk for finding this bug and providing an initial
patch.

Fix ARM profiling/instrumentation configuration
Commit 09cadedbdc01f1a4bea1f427d4fb4642eaa19da9 ("Combine
instrumentation menus in kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation") broke ARM
profiling support, since ARM has some extra Kconfig options and doesn't
just use the common OPROFILE/KPROBES config options.
Rather than just revert the thing outright, or add ARM-specific
knowledge to the generic Kconfig.instrumentation file (where the only
and whole point was to be generic, not too architecture-specific), this
just makes ARM not use the generic version, since it doesn't suit it.
So create an arm-specific version of Kconfig.instrumentation instead,
and use that.
