While auditing all tasklist_lock read_lock sites I stumbled over the
following call chain:
audit_prepare_user_tty()
read_lock(&tasklist_lock);
tty_audit_push_task();
mutex_lock(&buf->mutex);
--> buf->mutex is locked with preemption disabled.
Solve this by acquiring a reference to the task struct under
rcu_read_lock and call tty_audit_push_task outside of the preempt
disabled region.
Move all code which needs to be protected by sighand lock into
tty_audit_push_task() and use lock/unlock_sighand as we do not hold
tasklist_lock.

As each board and system has different memory for ramoops. It's better to
define the platform data instead of module params.

Structure par_timeout is copied to userland with some padding fields
unitialized. Field tv_usec has type __kernel_suseconds_t, it differs from

Fix a long standing bug with per device locking.
Each device has an associated spinlock for synchronizing access to
hardware and state information with the ISR. A single hardware card has
one or more devices.
Bug: Non ISR code correctly acquires and releases the per device lock.
ISR incorrectly always acquires and releases the lock of the first device
on the card.
The decoupled and list based nature of the ISR and deferred processing
interaction allowed this to work in normal operation. Exceptional events
like an application forcing hardware shutdown, reset, or reconfiguration
while active can trigger the bug.
Fixed ISR to acquire and release the per device lock.
One exception is manipulation of the GPIO card resource which is global
and effectively owned by the first device of the card. Non-ISR access to
GPIO resource is changed to use lock of first device on card.

This patch for SGI Altix/IA64 eliminates interval long timer holdoffs in
cases where we don't start an interval timer before the expiration time.
This sometimes happens when a number of interval timers on the same shub
with the same interval run simultaneously.
