PFN_PHYS, as its name suggests, turns a pfn into a physical address.
However, it is a macro which just operates on its argument without
modifying its type. pfns are typed unsigned long, but an unsigned
long may not be long enough to hold a physical address (32-bit systems
with more than 32 bits of physcial address).
Make sure we cast to phys_addr_t to return a complete result.

Add a kernel-wide "phys_addr_t" which is guaranteed to be able to hold
any physical address. By default it equals the word size of the
architecture, but a 32-bit architecture can set ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT
if it needs a 64-bit phys_addr_t.

ipsec: Restore larval states and socket policies in dump
[Bluetooth] Reject L2CAP connections on an insecure ACL link
[Bluetooth] Enforce correct authentication requirements
[Bluetooth] Fix reference counting during ACL config stage
This fixes kernel bugzilla 11469: "TUN with 1024 neighbours:
ip6_dst_lookup_tail NULL crash"
dst->neighbour is not necessarily hooked up at this point
in the processing path, so blindly dereferencing it is
the wrong thing to do. This NULL check exists in other
similar paths and this case was just an oversight.
Also fix the completely wrong and confusing indentation
here while we're at it.

clockevents: remove WARN_ON which was used to gather information
The issue of the endless reprogramming loop due to a too small
min_delta_ns was fixed with the previous updates of the clock events
code, but we had no information about the spread of this problem. I
added a WARN_ON to get automated information via kerneloops.org and to
get some direct reports, which allowed me to analyse the affected
machines.
The WARN_ON has served its purpose and would be annoying for a release
kernel. Remove it and just keep the information about the increase of
the min_delta_ns value.

It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer
formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7. However,
the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1)
parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for
function descriptors
Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing
architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64
and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel
internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

When running a 31-bit ptrace, on either an s390 or s390x kernel,
reads and writes into a padding area in struct user_regs_struct32
will result in a kernel panic.
This is also known as CVE-2008-1514.
Test case available here:
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/user-area-padding.c?cvsroot=systemtap
Steps to reproduce:
1) wget the above
2) gcc -o user-area-padding-31bit user-area-padding.c -Wall -ggdb2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -m31
3) ./user-area-padding-31bit
<panic>
Test status
-----------
Without patch, both s390 and s390x kernels panic. With patch, the test case,
as well as the gdb testsuite, pass without incident, padding area reads
returning zero, writes ignored.
Nb: original version returned -EINVAL on write attempts, which broke the
gdb test and made the test case slightly unhappy, Jan Kratochvil suggested
the change to return 0 on write attempts.

The Security Mode 4 of the Bluetooth 2.1 specification has strict
authentication and encryption requirements. It is the initiators job
to create a secure ACL link. However in case of malicious devices, the
acceptor has to make sure that the ACL is encrypted before allowing
any kind of L2CAP connection. The only exception here is the PSM 1 for
the service discovery protocol, because that is allowed to run on an
insecure ACL link.
Previously it was enough to reject a L2CAP connection during the
connection setup phase, but with Bluetooth 2.1 it is forbidden to
do any L2CAP protocol exchange on an insecure link (except SDP).
The new hci_conn_check_link_mode() function can be used to check the
integrity of an ACL link. This functions also takes care of the cases
where Security Mode 4 is disabled or one of the devices is based on
an older specification.

With the introduction of Security Mode 4 and Simple Pairing from the
Bluetooth 2.1 specification it became mandatory that the initiator
requires authentication and encryption before any L2CAP channel can
be established. The only exception here is PSM 1 for the service
discovery protocol (SDP). It is meant to be used without any encryption
since it contains only public information. This is how Bluetooth 2.0
and before handle connections on PSM 1.
For Bluetooth 2.1 devices the pairing procedure differentiates between
no bonding, general bonding and dedicated bonding. The L2CAP layer
wrongly uses always general bonding when creating new connections, but it
should not do this for SDP connections. In this case the authentication
requirement should be no bonding and the just-works model should be used,
but in case of non-SDP connection it is required to use general bonding.
If the new connection requires man-in-the-middle (MITM) protection, it
also first wrongly creates an unauthenticated link key and then later on
requests an upgrade to an authenticated link key to provide full MITM
protection. With Simple Pairing the link key generation is an expensive
operation (compared to Bluetooth 2.0 and before) and doing this twice
during a connection setup causes a noticeable delay when establishing
a new connection. This should be avoided to not regress from the expected
Bluetooth 2.0 connection times. The authentication requirements are known
up-front and so enforce them.
To fulfill these requirements the hci_connect() function has been extended
with an authentication requirement parameter that will be stored inside
the connection information and can be retrieved by userspace at any
time. This allows the correct IO capabilities exchange and results in
the expected behavior.
