To date libsas has only looked at the attached sas address when
determining the formation of wide ports. The specification and some
hardware expects that phys with different addresses will not form a wide
port unless the local peer phys also match each other. Introduce a flag
to select stricter behavior at sas_register_ha() time. The flag can be
dropped once it is known that all libsas users expect the same behavior.
Current drivers just initialize this field to zero and get the
traditional behavior.

This patch (as1415) improves the formerly incomprehensible logic in
sd_media_changed() (the current code refers to "changed" as a state,
whereas in fact it is a relation between two states). It also adds a
big comment so that everyone can understand what is really going on.
The patch also improves efficiency by not reporting a media change
when no medium was ever present. If no medium was present the last
time we checked and there's still no medium, it's not necessary to
tell the caller that a change occurred. Doing so merely causes the
caller to attempt to revalidate a non-existent disk, which is a waste
of time.

ext4: fix typo which broke '..' detection in ext4_find_entry()
ext4: Turn off multiple page-io submission by default
The install_special_mapping routine (used, for example, to setup the
vdso) skips the security check before insert_vm_struct, allowing a local
attacker to bypass the mmap_min_addr security restriction by limiting
the available pages for special mappings.
bprm_mm_init() also skips the check, and although I don't think this can
be used to bypass any restrictions, I don't see any reason not to have
the security check.

This gets caught by the new sanity check code. Instead of the slash use a
different symbol. This was originally found by Major Lee who proposed a
rather more complex patch which changed the name according to the chip
type.
On the basis that we are in a late -rc and making Linus grumpy isn't always
a good idea (however fun) this is a simple alternative.

There should be a check for the NUL character instead of '0'.
Fortunately the only thing that cares about this is NFS serving, which
is why we didn't notice this in the merge window testing.
