Imre Deak e5f1b194a9 omap_uwire: SPI_CPHA mode bugfix
The omap_uwire controller driver handles SPI_CPHA incorrectly;
It should mean:

  CPHA=0 ... sample at leading edge of clock
  CPHA=1 ... sample at trailing edge of clock

This bug has been masked by inverse bugs in layered drivers;
and was uncovered by running some of them on non-OMAP hardware.

The check (boot_cpu_data.x86 == 3) in atomic_add_return() and

Thomas Gleixner 98d8256739 Prevent going idle with softirq pending
The NOHZ patch contains a check for softirqs pending when a CPU goes idle.
The BUG is unrelated to NOHZ, it just was made visible by the NOHZ patch.
The BUG showed up mainly on P4 / hyperthreading enabled machines which lead
the investigations into the wrong direction in the first place.  The real
cause is in cond_resched_softirq():

cond_resched_softirq() is enabling softirqs without invoking the softirq
daemon when softirqs are pending.  This leads to the warning message in the
NOHZ idle code:

t1 runs softirq disabled code on CPU#0
interrupt happens, softirq is raised, but deferred (softirqs disabled)
t1 calls cond_resched_softirq()
	enables softirqs via _local_bh_enable()
	calls schedule()
t2 runs
t1 is migrated to CPU#1
t2 is done and invokes idle()
NOHZ detects the pending softirq

Fix: change _local_bh_enable() to local_bh_enable() so the softirq
daemon is invoked.

Thanks to Anant Nitya for debugging this with great patience !

NeilBrown 787f17feb2 md: avoid overflow in raid0 calculation with large components
If a raid0 has a component device larger than 4TB, and is accessed on a 32bit
machines, then as 'chunk' is unsigned long,

   chunk << chunksize_bits

can overflow (this can be as high as the size of the device in KB).  chunk
itself will not overflow (without triggering a BUG).

So change 'chunk' to be 'sector_t, and get rid of the 'BUG' as it becomes
impossible to hit.

Oleg Nesterov 14441960e8 simplify cleanup_workqueue_thread()
cleanup_workqueue_thread() and cwq_should_stop() are overcomplicated.

Convert the code to use kthread_should_stop/kthread_stop as was
suggested by Gautham and Srivatsa.

In particular this patch removes the (unlikely) busy-wait loop from the
exit path, it was a temporary and ugly kludge (if not a bug).

Note: the current code was designed to solve another old problem:
work->func can't share locks with hotplug callbacks.  I think this could
be done, see

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=116905366428633

but this needs some more complications to preserve CPU affinity of
cwq->thread during cpu_up().  A freezer-based hotplug looks more
appealing.

Christoph Lameter 33e9e24101 SLUB Debug: fix check for super sized slabs (>512k 64bit, >256k 32bit)
The check for super sized slabs where we can no longer move the free
pointer behind the object for debugging purposes etc is accessing a
field that is not setup yet.  We must use objsize here since the size of
the slab has not been determined yet.

The effect of this is that a global slab shrink via "slabinfo -s" will
show errors about offsets being wrong if booted with slub_debug.
Potentially there are other troubles with huge slabs under slub_debug
because the calculated free pointer offset is truncated.

Roland McGrath 7bb44adef3 recalc_sigpending_tsk fixes
Steve Hawkes discovered a problem where recalc_sigpending_tsk was called in
do_sigaction but no signal_wake_up call was made, preventing later signals
from waking up blocked threads with TIF_SIGPENDING already set.

In fact, the few other calls to recalc_sigpending_tsk outside the signals
code are also subject to this problem in other race conditions.

This change makes recalc_sigpending_tsk private to the signals code.  It
changes the outside calls, as well as do_sigaction, to use the new
recalc_sigpending_and_wake instead.

Ben Collins 3c6df2a917 Avoid zero size allocation in cache_k8_northbridges()
kmalloc for flush_words resulted in zero size allocation when no
k8_northbridges existed.  Short circuit the code path for this case.

Also remove uneeded zeroing of num_k8_northbridges just after checking if
it is zero.

Paul E. McKenney 9aaffc898f prohibit rcutorture from being compiled into the kernel
There have been a number of instances where people have accidentally compiled
rcutorture into the kernel (CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST=y), which has never been
useful, and has often resulted in great frustration.

The attached patch prohibits rcutorture from being compiled into the
kernel.  It may be excluded altogether or compiled as a module.  People
wishing to have rcutorture hammer their machine immediately upon boot
are free to hand-edit lib/Kconfig.debug to remove the "depends on m"
line.

Thanks to Randy Dunlap for the trick that makes this work.

Jeff Dike cf6acedbea uml: improve PTRACE_SYSEMU checking
Make the PTRACE_SYSEMU checking more robust.  It will make sure that system
call numbers are reported correctly.  If there is a problem, it will disable
PTRACE_SYSEMU use and use PTRACE_SYSCALL instead.

Thanks to Balaji G for helping reproduce this problem.

Allow user space to determine if a disk supports Asynchronous Notification of
media changes.  This is done by adding a new sysfs file "capability_flags",
which is documented in (insert file name).  This sysfs file will export all
disk capabilities flags to user space.  We also define a new flag to define
the media change notification capability.
