This reverts commit 3a366e614d.
Wanlong Gao reports that it causes a kernel panic on his machine several
minutes after boot. Reverting it removes the panic.
Jens says:
"It's not quite clear why that is yet, so I think we should just revert
the commit for 3.9 final (which I'm assuming is pretty close).
The wifi is crap at the LSF hotel, so sending this email instead of
queueing up a revert and pull request."

Previous patch added proc file to list posix timers created by task.
Expand the information provided in this file by adding info about
notification method, with which timers were created. I.e. after
the "ID:" line there go
1. "signal:" line, that shows signal number and sigval bits;
2. "notify:" line, that shows the timer notification method.
Thus the timer entry would looke like this:
ID: 123
signal: 14/0000000000b005d0
notify: signal/pid.732
This information is enough to understand how timer_create() was called
for each particular timer.

Currently kernel doesn't provide any API for getting info about what
posix timers are configured by processes. It's implied, that a process
which configured some timers, knows what it did. However, for external
tools it's impossible to get this information. In particular, this is
critical for checkpoint-restore project to have this info.
Introduce a per-pid proc file with information about posix
timers. Since these timers are shared between threads, this file is
present on tgid level only, no such thing in tid subdirs.
The file format is expected to be the "/proc/<pid>/smaps"-like,
i.e. each timer will occupy seveal lines to allow for future
extending.
Each new timer entry starts with the
ID: <number>
line which is added by this patch.

Btrfs: make sure nbytes are right after log replay
Revert commit 62a3ddef61 ("vfs: fix spinning prevention in prune_icache_sb").
This commit doesn't look right: since we are looking at the tail of the
list (sb->s_inode_lru.prev) if we want to skip an inode, we should put
it back at the head of the list instead of the tail, otherwise we will
keep spinning on it.
Discovered when investigating why prune_icache_sb came top in perf
reports of a swapping load.

While trying to track down a tree log replay bug I noticed that fsck was always
complaining about nbytes not being right for our fsynced file. That is because
the new fsync stuff doesn't wait for ordered extents to complete, so the inodes
nbytes are not necessarily updated properly when we log it. So to fix this we
need to set nbytes to whatever it is on the inode that is on disk, so when we
replay the extents we can just add the bytes that are being added as we replay
the extent. This makes it work for the case that we have the wrong nbytes or
the case that we logged everything and nbytes is actually correct. With this
I'm no longer getting nbytes errors out of btrfsck.

Pull CIFS fix from Steve French:
"Fixes a regression in cifs in which a password which begins with a
comma is parsed incorrectly as a blank password"
* 'for-next' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6:
cifs: Allow passwords which begin with a delimitor
The smpboot threads rely on the park/unpark mechanism which binds per
cpu threads on a particular core. Though the functionality is racy:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
unpark(T) wake_up_process(T)
clear(SHOULD_PARK) T runs
leave parkme() due to !SHOULD_PARK
bind_to(CPU2) BUG_ON(wrong CPU)
We cannot let the tasks move themself to the target CPU as one of
those tasks is actually the migration thread itself, which requires
that it starts running on the target cpu right away.
The solution to this problem is to prevent wakeups in park mode which
are not from unpark(). That way we can guarantee that the association
of the task to the target cpu is working correctly.
Add a new task state (TASK_PARKED) which prevents other wakeups and
use this state explicitly for the unpark wakeup.
Peter noticed: Also, since the task state is visible to userspace and
all the parked tasks are still in the PID space, its a good hint in ps
and friends that these tasks aren't really there for the moment.
The migration thread has another related issue.
CPU0 CPU1
Bring up CPU2
create_thread(T)
park(T)
wait_for_completion()
parkme()
complete()
sched_set_stop_task()
schedule(TASK_PARKED)
The sched_set_stop_task() call is issued while the task is on the
runqueue of CPU1 and that confuses the hell out of the stop_task class
on that cpu. So we need the same synchronizaion before
sched_set_stop_task().

It might be a kernel disaster if one sysfs entry is freed but
still referenced by sysfs tree.
Recently Dave and Sasha reported one use-after-free problem on
sysfs entry, and the problem has been troubleshooted with help
of debug message added in this patch.
Given sysfs_get_dirent/sysfs_put are exported APIs, even inside
sysfs they are called in many contexts(kobject/attribe add/delete,
inode init/drop, dentry lookup/release, readdir, ...), it is healthful
to check the removed flag before freeing one entry and dump message
if it is freeing without being removed first.

It is unsafe to use list_for_each_entry_safe() here, because
when we drop the nn->nfs_client_lock, we pin the _current_ list
entry and ensure that it stays in the list, but we don't do the
same for the _next_ list entry. Use of list_for_each_entry() is
therefore the correct thing to do.
Also fix the refcounting in nfs41_walk_client_list().
Finally, ensure that the nfs_client has finished being initialised
and, in the case of NFSv4.1, that the session is set up.
