Right now for kfifo_*_user it's not easily possible to distingush between
a user copy failing and the FIFO not containing enough data. The problem
is that both conditions are multiplexed into the same return code.
Avoid this by moving the "copy length" into a separate output parameter
and only return 0/-EFAULT in the main return value.
I didn't fully adapt the weird "record" variants, those seem
to be unused anyways and were rather messy (should they be just removed?)
I would appreciate some double checking if I did all the conversions
correctly.

EDAC MC0: INTERNAL ERROR: channel-b out of range (4 >= 4)
Kernel panic - not syncing: EDAC MC0: Uncorrected Error (XEN) Domain 0 crashed: 'noreboot' set - not rebooting.
This happens because FERR_NF_FBD bit 28 is not updated on i5000. Due to
that, both bits 28 and 29 may be equal to one, returning channel = 3. As
this value is invalid, EDAC core generates the panic.

The m68knommu coldfire pit clocksource looks like it was incorrectly
marked as a continuous clocksource. Running with it marked as a
continuous clocksource could cause hangs when the system switches to
highres mode or enables nohz.
This patch removes the CLOCK_SOURCE_IS_CONTINUOUS flag on the coldfire pit
clocksource. This will disallow systems using this clocksource from
entering oneshot mode (disabling highres timers and nohz).

When I try to use markup_oops.pl in x86, I always get:
cat 1 | perl markup_oops.pl ./vmlinux
objdump: --start-address: bad number: NaN
No matching code found
This is because in line:
if ($line =~ /EIP is at ([a-zA-Z0-9\_]+)\+0x([0-9a-f]+)\/[a-f0-9]/) {
$function = $1;
$func_offset = $2;
}
$func_offset will get a number like "0x2"
But in follow code:
my $decodestart = Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$target") -
Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$func_offset");
It add other ox to ox2. Then this value will be set to NaN.
So I made a small patch to fix it.

Although I'd consider this a hardware bug, as there is hardware out that
for whatever reason does not support hardware cursors on LCD output we

inotify will WARN() if it finds that the idr and the fsnotify internals
somehow got out of sync. It was only supposed to do this once but due
to this stupid bug it would warn every single time a problem was
detected.

Since commit 7e790dd5fc ("inotify: fix
error paths in inotify_update_watch") inotify changed the manor in which
it gave watch descriptors back to userspace. Previous to this commit
inotify acted like the following:
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
inotify_rm_watch(X, 1);
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 2
but after this patch inotify would return watch descriptors like so:
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
inotify_rm_watch(X, 1);
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
which I saw as equivalent to opening an fd where
open(file) = 1;
close(1);
open(file) = 1;
seemed perfectly reasonable. The issue is that quite a bit of userspace
apparently relies on the behavior in which watch descriptors will not be
quickly reused. KDE relies on it, I know some selinux packages rely on
it, and I have heard complaints from other random sources such as debian
bug 558981.
Although the man page implies what we do is ok, we broke userspace so
this patch almost reverts us to the old behavior. It is still slightly
racey and I have patches that would fix that, but they are rather large
and this will fix it for all real world cases. The race is as follows:
- task1 creates a watch and blocks in idr_new_watch() before it updates
the hint.
- task2 creates a watch and updates the hint.
- task1 updates the hint with it's older wd
- task removes the watch created by task2
- task adds a new watch and will reuse the wd originally given to task2
it requires moving some locking around the hint (last_wd) but this should
solve it for the real world and be -stable safe.
As a side effect this patch papers over a bug in the lib/idr code which
is causing a large number WARN's to pop on people's system and many
reports in kerneloops.org. I'm working on the root cause of that idr
bug seperately but this should make inotify immune to that issue.

Original DP mode_valid check didn't take pixel color depth into account,
which made one 1600x900 eDP panel's mode check invalid because of overclock,
but actually this 6bpc panel does can work with x1 lane at 2.7G. This one
trys to take bpp value properly both in mode validation and mode setting.

Many platform support this feature, and it can provide significant
power savings when the reduced refresh rate is low. However, on some
platforms a secondary (reduced) timing is provided but not actually
supported by the hardware. This results in undesirable flicker at
runtime.
So disable the feature by default, but allow users to opt-in to the
reduced clock behavior with a new module parameter, lvds_downclock,
that can be set to 1 to enable the feature.
