Jeff Layton 536abdb080 cifs: fix wksidarr declaration to be big-endian friendly
The current definition of wksidarr works fine on little endian arches
(since cpu_to_le32 is a no-op there), but on big-endian arches, it fails
to compile with this error:

error: braced-group within expression allowed only inside a function

The problem is that this static declaration has cpu_to_le32 embedded
within it, and that expands into a function macro.  We need to use
__constant_cpu_to_le32() instead.

Jeff Layton e911d0cc87 cifs: fix inode leak in cifs_get_inode_info_unix
Try this:

    mount a share with unix extensions
    create a file on it
    umount the share

You'll get the following message in the ring buffer:

VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of cifs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds.  Have a
nice day...

...the problem is that cifs_get_inode_info_unix is creating and hashing
a new inode even when it's going to return error anyway. The first
lookup when creating a file returns an error so we end up leaking this
inode before we do the actual create. This appears to be a regression
caused by commit 0e4bbde94f.

The following patch seems to fix it for me, and fixes a minor
formatting nit as well.

Dave Chinner 49641f1acf Fix reference counting race on log buffers
When we release the iclog, we do an atomic_dec_and_lock to determine if
we are the last reference and need to trigger update of log headers and
writeout.  However, in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we also need to
check if we have the last reference count there.  If we do, we release
the log buffer, otherwise we decrement the reference count.

But the compare and decrement in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() is not
atomic, so both places can see a reference count of 2 and neither will
release the iclog.  That leads to a filesystem hang.

Close the race by replacing the atomic_read() and atomic_dec() pair with
atomic_add_unless() to ensure that they are executed atomically.

Hugh Dickins 96a8e13ed4 exec: fix stack excutability without PT_GNU_STACK
Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.

Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup.  Checking through
our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

Mark Fasheh e988cf1cfe ocfs2: Fix flags in ocfs2_file_lock
The stack-glue merge changed the way we use flags in dlmglue in that we now
use the fs/dlm equivalents. Unfortunately, a merge error left the new flock
code only partially updated. This took a while to show up though, because
the lock level constants are actually identical between o2dlm and fs/dlm.
The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is
eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm().

Jeff Mahoney eb35c218d8 reiserfs: discard prealloc in reiserfs_delete_inode
With the removal of struct file from the xattr code,
reiserfs_file_release() isn't used anymore, so the prealloc isn't
discarded.  This causes hangs later down the line.

This patch adds it to reiserfs_delete_inode.  In most cases it will be a
no-op due to it already having been called, but will avoid hangs with
xattrs.

Trond Myklebust 2aac05a919 NFS: Fix readdir cache invalidation
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte
ranges.

Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM
pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the
evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns
more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry
changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on
page->index==0.

Andrew Morton 5d7e0d2bd9 Fix pagemap_read() use of struct mm_walk
Fix some issues in pagemap_read noted by Alexey:

- initialize pagemap_walk.mm to "mm" , so the code starts working as
  advertised

- initialize ->private to "&pm" so it wouldn't immediately oops in
  pagemap_pte_hole()

- unstatic struct pagemap_walk, so two threads won't fsckup each other
  (including those started by root, including flipping ->mm when you don't
  have permissions)

- pagemap_read() contains two calls to ptrace_may_attach(), second one
  looks unneeded.

- avoid possible kmalloc(0) and integer wraparound.

Eric Van Hensbergen 2e4bef41a0 9p: fix O_APPEND in legacy mode
The legacy protocol's open operation doesn't handle an append operation
(it is expected that the client take care of it).  We were incorrectly
passing the extended protocol's flag through even in legacy mode.  This
was reported in bugzilla report #10689.  This patch fixes the problem
by disallowing extended protocol open modes from being passed in legacy
mode and implemented append functionality on the client side by adding
a seek after the open.

Jens Axboe 18ce3751cc Properly notify block layer of sync writes
fsync_buffers_list() and sync_dirty_buffer() both issue async writes and
then immediately wait on them. Conceptually, that makes them sync writes
and we should treat them as such so that the IO schedulers can handle
them appropriately.

This patch fixes a write starvation issue that Lin Ming reported, where
xx is stuck for more than 2 minutes because of a large number of
synchronous IO in the system:

Benjamin Marzinski 5af4e7a0be [GFS2] fix gfs2 block allocation (cleaned up)
This patch fixes bz 450641.

This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it
renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata
tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either
diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first
indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the
inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for
509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the
first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the
height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located.
It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2
(if it diverges from the first indirect block).
