bbad0b669d [PATCH] x86_64: Remove __KERNEL__ ifdef around _syscall*()
After all their only point is having them in user space. On x86-64
they don't even work in kernel space.

8c74932779 [PATCH] i386: Remove alternative_smp
The .fill causes miscompilations with some binutils version.

Instead just patch the lock prefix in the lock constructs. That is the
majority of the cost and should be good enough.

ea424055b7 [PATCH] x86: Make backtracer fallback logic more bullet-proof
The unwinder fallback logic still had potential for falling through to
the legacy stack trace code without printing an indication (at once
serving as a separator) of this.

Further, the stack pointer retrieval for the fallback should be as
restrictive as possible (in order to avoid having the legacy stack
tracer try to access invalid memory). The patch tightens that, but
this could certainly be further improved.

Also making the call_trace command line option now conditional upon
CONFIG_STACK_UNWIND (as it's meaningless otherwise).

61171b8dbd [PATCH] x86: fix x86 cpuid keys used in alternative_smp()
By hard-coding the cpuid keys for alternative_smp() rather than using
the symbolic constant it turned out that incorrect values were used on
both i386 (0x68 instead of 0x69) and x86-64 (0x66 instead of 0x68).

01da5fd83d [PATCH] Fix tty layer DoS and comment relevant code
Unlike the other tty comment patch this one has code changes.  Specifically
it limits the queue size for a tty to 64K characters (128Kbytes) worst case
even if the tty is ignoring tty->throttle.  This is because certain drivers
don't honour the throttle value correctly, although it is a useful
safeguard anyway.

ea817398e6 [PATCH] Manage jbd allocations from its own slabs
JBD currently allocates commit and frozen buffers from slabs.  With
CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG, its possible for an allocation to cross the page
boundary causing IO problems.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200127

So, instead of allocating these from regular slabs - manage allocation from
its own slabs and disable slab debug for these slabs.

533475d3d4 [PATCH] vcsa attribute bits -> ioctl(VT_GETHIFONTMASK)
When reading /dev/vcsa while a font with more than 256 characters is
loaded, one of the attribute bits records the 9th bit of the character.
But depending on the console driver (vgacon or fbcon for instance), that's
bit 3 or bit 0.  And there is no way for userland to know that, thus no way
for userland to safely grab the screen content.  So here is a (tested)
patch:

Add a VT_GETHIFONTMASK ioctl for knowing which bit is the 9th bit for VC
text (vc_hi_font_mask field of the vc_data structure).

Patch from Paul Sokolovsky

This patch adds timeouts while working with SSP registers. Such
timeouts were envisioned by docstrings in ssp.c, but were not
implemented. There were actual lockups while accessing
touchscreen for iPaqs h1910, h4000 due to lack of the timeouts.
This is updated version of previously submitted patch: 3738/1.

3cedf13af9 NFSv4: increase client-provided nfs4 clientid size
Neil Brown observed that the current limit of 32 bytes isn't enough to hold two
ip addresses and the rest of the stuff we're putting in it, so it's often
truncated to the point where it's unlikely to be unique.  This can cause
spurious CLID_INUSE's from the server.

8e037094c4 SUNRPC: avoid choosing an IPMI port for RPC traffic
Some hardware uses port 664 for its hardware-based IPMI listener.  Teach
the RPC client to avoid using that port by raising the default minimum port
number to 665.

Test plan:
Find a mainboard known to use port 664 for IPMI; enable IPMI; mount NFS
servers in a tight loop.
