On platforms that have __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW set and want to implement
lock validator support there's a bug in rq->lock handling: in this case we
dont 'carry over' the runqueue lock into another task - but still we did a
spinlock_release() of it. Fix this by making the spinlock_release() in
context_switch() dependent on !__ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW.
(Reported by Ralf Baechle on MIPS, which has __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW.
This fixes a lockdep-internal BUG message on such platforms.)

drops gpio_set_high, gpio_set_low from the nsc_gpio_ops vtable. While we
can't drop them from scx200_gpio (or can we?), we dont need them for new users
of the exported vtable; gpio_set(1), gpio_set(0) work fine.

Currently, the code in lib/idr.c uses a bare spin_lock(&idp->lock) to do
internal locking. This is a nasty trap for code that might call idr
functions from different contexts; for example, it seems perfectly
reasonable to call idr_get_new() from process context and idr_remove() from
interrupt context -- but with the current locking this would lead to a
potential deadlock.
The simplest fix for this is to just convert the idr locking to use
spin_lock_irqsave().
In particular, this fixes a very complicated locking issue detected by
lockdep, involving the ib_ipoib driver's priv->lock and dev->_xmit_lock,
which get involved with the ib_sa module's query_idr.lock.

On systems with block devices containing a slash (virtual dasd, cciss,
etc), reiserfs will fail to initialize /proc/fs/reiserfs/<dev> due to it
being interpreted as a subdirectory. The generic block device code changes
the / to ! for use in the sysfs tree. This patch uses that convention.
Tested by making dm devices use dm/<number> rather than dm-<number>

Remove the scx200_gpio's cdev-array & ksalloc, replacing it with a single
static struct cdev, which is sufficient for all the pins.
cdev_put is commented out since kernel wont link properly with it, and its
apparently not needed.
With these patches, this driver continues to work with Chris Boot's
leds_48xx driver.

this patch is mostly cleanup of scx200_gpio :
- drop #include <linux/config.h>
- s/DEVNAME/DRVNAME/ apparently a convention
- replace variable num_pins with #define MAX_PINS
- s/dev/devid/ to clarify that its a dev_t, not a struct device dev.
- move devid = MKDEV(major,0) into branch where its needed.
2 minor 'changes' :
- reduced MAX_PINS from 64 to 32. Ive never tested other pins, and
theyre all multiplexed with other functions, some of which may be in use
on my soekris 4801, so I dont know what testing should yield.
- +EXPORT_SYMBOL(scx200_access);
This exposes the driver's vtable, which another driver can use along
with #include <linux/nsc_gpio.h>, to manipulate a gpio-pin.

Christoph Hellwig:
open_softirq just enables a softirq. The softirq array is statically
allocated so to add a new one you would have to patch the kernel. So
there's no point to keep this export at all as any user would have to
patch the enum in include/linux/interrupt.h anyway.

Make the ramdisk blocksize configurable at kernel compilation time rather
than only at boot or module load time, like a couple of the other ramdisk
options. I found this handy awhile back but thought little of it, until
recently asked by a few of the testing folks here to be able to do the same
thing for their automated test setups.
The Kconfig comment is largely lifted from comments in rd.c, and hopefully
this will increase the chances of making folks aware that the default value
often isn't a great choice here (for increasing values of PAGE_SIZE, even
moreso).

Got a customer bug report (https://bugzilla.novell.com/190296) about kernel
symbols longer than 127 characters which end up in a string buffer that is
not NULL terminated, leading to garbage in /proc/kallsyms. Using strlcpy
prevents this from happening, even though such symbols still won't come out
right.
A better fix would be to not use a fixed-size buffer, but it's probably not
worth the trouble. (Modversion'ed symbols even have a length limit of 60.)

On i386, the user space accessor functions copy_from/to_user() both invoke
might_sleep(), do a quick sanity check, and then pass the work on to their
__copy_from/to_user() counterparts, which again invoke might_sleep().
Given that no actual work happens between these two calls, it is best to
eliminate one of the redundant might_sleep()s.

This patch removes the foolish assumption that SMP implied local apics.
That assumption is not-true on the Voyager subarch. This makes that
dependency explicit, and allows the code to build.
What gets disabled is just an optimization to get better crash dumps so the
support should work if there is a kernel that will initialization on the
voyager subarch under those harsh conditions.
Hopefully we can figure out how to initialize apics in init_IRQ and remove
the need to disable io_apics and this dependency.

There is a race condition that showed up in a threaded JIT environment.
The situation is that a process with a JIT code page forks, so the page is
marked read-only, then some threads are created in the child. One of the
threads attempts to add a new code block to the JIT page, so a
copy-on-write fault is taken, and the kernel allocates a new page, copies
the data, installs the new pte, and then calls lazy_mmu_prot_update() to
flush caches to make sure that the icache and dcache are in sync.
Unfortunately, the other thread runs right after the new pte is installed,
but before the caches have been flushed. It tries to execute some old JIT
code that was already in this page, but it sees some garbage in the i-cache
from the previous users of the new physical page.
Fix: we must make the caches consistent before installing the pte. This is
an ia64 only fix because lazy_mmu_prot_update() is a no-op on all other
architectures.

It is the fix for the first one. filp leaks in the bowels of namei.c.
Seems, size-4096 is file table leaking in expand_fdtables.
I have no idea what are the rest and why they show only accompanying
another leaks. Some debugging structs?
