When we flush register state for FP, Altivec, or SPE in flush_*_to_thread
we need to respect the task_struct that the caller has passed to us.
Most cases we are called with current, however sometimes (ptrace) we may
be passed a different task_struct.
This showed up when using gdbserver debugging a simple program that used
floating point. When gdb tried to show the FP regs they all showed up as
0, because the child's FP registers were never properly flushed to memory.

Without this, we get qla2xxx complaining about "ISP System Error".
What's happening here is the firmware is detecting a Xfer-ready from the
storage when in fact the data-direction for a mode-select should be a
write (DATA_OUT).
The following patch fixes the problem (typo). Verified by Brian, as
well.

Sigh. Again an ACPI assault on the Thinkpad's Fn+F4 to suspend to RAM.
The default and text for CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED were fixed
in -rc3, but now commit 14e04fb34f ("ACPI:
Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal") introduces the ACPI_PROC_EVENT
config entry, and defaults it to 'n' to disable it again.
Change default to y, and add comment to make it clearer that n is for

Commit 61ec7567db ('ACPI: boot correctly
with "nosmp" or "maxcpus=0"') broke 'maxcpus=' handling on x86[-64].
maxcpus=N is now having no effect on x86_64, and freezing bootup on i386
(because of inconsistency with the separate maxcpus parsing down in
arch/i386, I guess). That's because early_param parsing is a little
different from __setup parsing, and needs the "=" omitted: then it seems
to work as the original commit intended (no mention of IO-APIC in
/proc/interrupts when maxcpus=0).

While debugging issues with the VDS server I made the
driver use partition 2 to get at the whole disk since
this is the "whole disk" partition in the Sun disk
label.
We really should use slice 0xff which really means
the whole physical disk in the VIO disk protocol.
Otherwise things won't work well on a disk image
that doesn't have a proper disk label on it.

I tried to preserve bridging code as it was before, but logic is quite
strange - I think we should free skb on error, since it is already
unshared and thus will just leak.
Herbert Xu states:
> + if ((skb = skb_share_check(skb, GFP_ATOMIC)) == NULL)
> + goto out;
If this happens it'll be a double-free on skb since we'll
return NF_DROP which makes the caller free it too.
We could return NF_STOLEN to prevent that but I'm not sure
whether that's correct netfilter semantics. Patrick, could
you please make a call on this?
Patrick McHardy states:
NF_STOLEN should work fine here.

In testing our ESP/AH offload hardware, I discovered an issue with how
AH handles mutable fields in IPv4. RFC 4302 (AH) states the following
on the subject:
For IPv4, the entire option is viewed as a unit; so even
though the type and length fields within most options are immutable
in transit, if an option is classified as mutable, the entire option
is zeroed for ICV computation purposes.
The current implementation does not zero the type and length fields,
resulting in authentication failures when communicating with hosts
that do (i.e. FreeBSD).
I have tested record route and timestamp options (ping -R and ping -T)
on a small network involving Windows XP, FreeBSD 6.2, and Linux hosts,
with one router. In the presence of these options, the FreeBSD and
Linux hosts (with the patch or with the hardware) can communicate.
The Windows XP host simply fails to accept these packets with or
without the patch.
I have also been trying to test source routing options (using
traceroute -g), but haven't had much luck getting this option to work
*without* AH, let alone with.
