If all allowable memory is unreclaimable, it is possible to loop forever
in the page allocator for ~__GFP_NORETRY allocations.
During this time, it is also possible for a task's cpuset to expand its
set of allowable nodes so that it now includes free memory. The cached
copy of this set, current->mems_allowed, is stale, however, since there
has not been a subsequent call to cpuset_update_task_memory_state().
The cached copy of the set of allowable nodes is now updated in the page
allocator's slow path so the additional memory is available to
get_page_from_freelist().

It turns out that edac_mc_del_mc will kobject_put the last kref on the
mci object.
If the timing is just right, that means that the mci object is freed
before before i5000_remove_one has a chance to free the resources
associated with it, causing a null pointer exceptions when unloading the
driver. Insert a kobject_{get,put} pair so that this doesn't happen.

It turns out that if one registers a struct platform_device, the
platform device code expects that platform_device.device->driver points
to a struct driver inside a struct platform_driver.
This is not the case with the ipmi-si, ipmi-msghandler and ibmaem
drivers, which causes the suspend/resume hook functions to jump off into
nowhere, causing a crash. Make this assumption hold true for these
three drivers.

Oops. Part of the hugetlb private reservation code was not fully
converted to use hstates.
When a huge page must be unmapped from VMAs due to a failed COW,
HPAGE_SIZE is used in the call to unmap_hugepage_range() regardless of
the page size being used. This works if the VMA is using the default
huge page size. Otherwise we might unmap too much, too little, or
trigger a BUG_ON. Rare but serious -- fix it.

This fixes a TX hang reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
When an architecutre cannot provide a fully functional
64-bit atomic readq/writeq, the driver must implement
it's own. This is because only the driver can say whether
doing something like using two 32-bit reads to implement
the full 64-bit read will actually work properly.
In particular one of the issues is whether the top 32-bits
or the bottom 32-bits of the 64-bit register should be read
first. There could be side effects, and in fact that is
exactly the problem here.
The TX_CS register has counters in the upper 32-bits and
state bits in the lower 32-bits. A read clears the state
bits.
We would read the counter half before the state bit half.
That first read would clear the state bits, and then the
driver thinks that no interrupts are pending because the
interrupt indication state bits are seen clear every time.
Fix this by reading the bottom half before the upper half.

Like mac80211 did, this driver makes 'clever' use of skb->cb to pass
information along with an skb as it is requeued from the virtual device
to the physical wireless device. Unfortunately, that trick no longer
works...
Unlike mac80211, code complexity and driver apathy makes this hack
the best option we have in the short run. Hopefully someone will
eventually be motivated to code a proper fix before all the effected
hardware dies.

The ieee80211_notify_mac() function uses ieee80211_sta_req_auth() which
in turn calls ieee80211_set_disassoc() which calls a few functions that
need to be able to sleep, so ieee80211_notify_mac() cannot use RCU
locking for the interface list and must use rtnl locking instead.
