In certain cases (for example when a cdev structure is embedded into
another object whose lifetime is controlled by a separate kobject) it is
beneficial to tie lifetime of another object to the lifetime of
character device so that related object is not freed until after
char_dev object is freed.
To achieve this let's pin kobject's parent when doing cdev_add() and
unpin when last reference to cdev structure is being released.

In mke2fs, we only checksum the whole bitmap block and it is right.
While in the kernel, we use EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP to indicate the
size of the checksumed bitmap which is wrong when we enable bigalloc.
The right size should be EXT4_CLUSTERS_PER_GROUP and this patch fixes
it.
Also as every caller of ext4_block_bitmap_csum_set and
ext4_block_bitmap_csum_verify pass in EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb)/8,
we'd better removes this parameter and sets it in the function itself.

/proc/<pid>/numa_maps scans vma and show mempolicy under
mmap_sem. It sometimes accesses task->mempolicy which can
be freed without mmap_sem and numa_maps can show some
garbage while scanning.
This patch tries to take reference count of task->mempolicy at reading
numa_maps before calling get_vma_policy(). By this, task->mempolicy
will not be freed until numa_maps reaches its end.
V2->v3
- updated comments to be more verbose.
- removed task_lock() in numa_maps code.
V1->V2
- access task->mempolicy only once and remember it. Becase kernel/exit.c
can overwrite it.

SUNRPC: Prevent kernel stack corruption on long values of flush
NLM: nlm_lookup_file() may return NLMv4-specific error codes
Commit 38f3865744 ("xattr: extract simple_xattr code from tmpfs") moved
some code from tmpfs but introduced a subtle bug along the way.
If the name passed to simple_xattr_remove() does not exist in the list of
xattrs, then it is possible to call kfree(new_xattr) when new_xattr is
actually initialized to itself on the stack via uninitialized_var().
This causes a BUG() since the memory was not allocated via the slab
allocator and was not bypassed through to the page allocator because it
was too large.
Initialize the local variable to NULL so the kfree() never takes place.

If the filehandle is stale, or open access is denied for some reason,
nlm_fopen() may return one of the NLMv4-specific error codes nlm4_stale_fh

and so when nlmsvc_retrieve_args() calls the latter, it needs to filter

fix a leak in replace_fd() users
When reading /proc/pid/numa_maps, it's possible to return the contents of
the stack where the mempolicy string should be printed if the policy gets
freed from beneath us.
This happens because mpol_to_str() may return an error the
stack-allocated buffer is then printed without ever being stored.
There are two possible error conditions in mpol_to_str():
- if the buffer allocated is insufficient for the string to be stored,
and
- if the mempolicy has an invalid mode.
The first error condition is not triggered in any of the callers to
mpol_to_str(): at least 50 bytes is always allocated on the stack and this
is sufficient for the string to be written. A future patch should convert
this into BUILD_BUG_ON() since we know the maximum strlen possible, but
that's not -rc material.
The second error condition is possible if a race occurs in dropping a
reference to a task's mempolicy causing it to be freed during the read().
The slab poison value is then used for the mode and mpol_to_str() returns
-EINVAL.
This race is only possible because get_vma_policy() believes that
mm->mmap_sem protects task->mempolicy, which isn't true. The exit path
does not hold mm->mmap_sem when dropping the reference or setting
task->mempolicy to NULL: it uses task_lock(task) instead.
Thus, it's required for the caller of a task mempolicy to hold
task_lock(task) while grabbing the mempolicy and reading it. Callers with
a vma policy store their mempolicy earlier and can simply increment the
reference count so it's guaranteed not to be freed.

replace_fd() began with "eats a reference, tries to insert into
descriptor table" semantics; at some point I'd switched it to
much saner current behaviour ("try to insert into descriptor
table, grabbing a new reference if inserted; caller should do
fput() in any case"), but forgot to update the callers.
Mea culpa...

The result of the bit shift expression in
'1 << sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex' can be undefined in the case that
s_log_groups_per_flex is 31 because the result of the shift is bigger
than INT_MAX. In reality this probably should not cause much problems
since we'll end up with INT_MIN which will then be converted into
'unsigned int' type, but nevertheless according to the ISO C99 the
result is actually undefined.
Fix this by changing the left operand to 'unsigned int' type.
Note that the commit d50f2ab6f0 already
tried to fix the undefined behaviour, but this was missed.
Thanks to Laszlo Ersek for pointing this out and suggesting the fix.

Instead, we should just rely on filelayout_mark_devid_invalid() to keep
