Currently the clock rate calculation may round as pleased, which means
that it is possible that we will round down and end up with a faster clock
rate than intended.
Change the calculation to use DIV_ROUND_UP() to ensure that we end up with
a clock rate either the same as or lower than the user requested one.

The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to
the mm_struct. It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM.
However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job
scheduler. Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process.
Why? His program has the code of similar to the following.
...
set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */
...
if (vfork() == 0) {
set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */
execve("foo-bar-cmd");
}
....
vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above
set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also
change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler)
lost OOM immune and it was killed.
Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program.
We must not break this assumption.
Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

The wake_up_process() of the new irq thread in __setup_irq() is too
early as the irqaction is not yet fully initialized especially
action->irq is not yet set. The interrupt thread might dereference the
wrong irq descriptor.
Move the wakeup after the action is installed and action->irq has been
set.

In 5e140dfc1f "net: reorder struct Qdisc
for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic
changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to
userland via netlink.
Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason.
Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and
teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land,
using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic)
Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.

The static variable used by nr_call_to_digi might result in corruption if
multiple threads are trying to usee a node or neighbour via ioctl. Fixed
by having the caller pass a structure in. This is safe because nr_add_node
rsp. nr_add_neigh will allocate a permanent structure, if needed.

Recent commit c8c00a6915
changed the exit paths in do_md_stop and was not quite
careful enough. There is one path were 'err' now needs
to be cleared but it isn't.
So setting an array to readonly (with mdadm --readonly) will
work, but will incorrectly report and error: ENXIO.

The inotify_add_watch man page specifies that inotify_add_watch() will
return a non-negative integer. However, historically the inotify
watches started at 1, not at 0.
Turns out that the inotifywait program provided by the inotify-tools
package doesn't properly handle a 0 watch descriptor. In 7e790dd5 we
changed from starting at 1 to starting at 0. This patch starts at 1,
just like in previous kernels, but also just like in previous kernels
it's possible for it to wrap back to 0. This preserves the kernel
functionality exactly like it was before the patch (neither method broke
the spec)

In f44aebcc the tail drop logic of events with no file backing
(q_overflow and in_ignored) was reversed so IN_IGNORED events would
never be tail dropped. This now means that Q_OVERFLOW events are NOT
tail dropped. The fix is to not tail drop IN_IGNORED, but to tail drop
Q_OVERFLOW.

inotify decides if private data it passed to get added to an event was
used by checking list_empty(). But it's possible that the event may
have been dequeued and the private event removed so it would look empty.
The fix is to use the return code from fsnotify_add_notify_event rather
than looking at the list.

The locking in xfs_iget_cache_hit currently has numerous problems:
- we clear the reclaim tag without i_flags_lock which protects
modifications to it
- we call inode_init_always which can sleep with pag_ici_lock
held (this is oss.sgi.com BZ #819)
- we acquire and drop i_flags_lock a lot and thus provide no
consistency between the various flags we set/clear under it
This patch fixes all that with a major revamp of the locking in
the function. The new version acquires i_flags_lock early and
only drops it once we need to call into inode_init_always or before
calling xfs_ilock.
This patch fixes a bug seen in the wild where we race modifying the
reclaim tag.

Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory
is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable. This patch causes SELinux to
ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how
much space the LSM should protect.
The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux
permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by
CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR.
This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason
being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux
controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to
map some area of low memory.

Currently SELinux does not check CAP_SYS_RAWIO in the file_mmap hook. This
means there is no DAC check on the ability to mmap low addresses in the
memory space. This function adds the DAC check for CAP_SYS_RAWIO while
maintaining the selinux check on mmap_zero. This means that processes
which need to mmap low memory will need CAP_SYS_RAWIO and mmap_zero but will
NOT need the SELinux sys_rawio capability.
