6168f62cbd NFSv4: Add ACCESS operation to OPEN compound
The OPEN operation has no way to differentiate an open for read and an
open for execution - both look like read to the server. This allowed
users to read files that didn't have READ access but did have EXEC access,
which is obviously wrong.

This patch adds an ACCESS call to the OPEN compound to handle the
difference between OPENs for reading and execution.  Since we're going
through the trouble of calling ACCESS, we check all possible access bits
and cache the results hopefully avoiding an ACCESS call in the future.

d19751e7b9 SUNRPC: Get rid of the redundant xprt->shutdown bit field
It is only set after everyone has dereferenced the transport,
and serves no useful purpose: setting it is racy, so all the
socket code, etc still needs to be able to cope with the cases
where they miss reading it.

05990d1bf2 NFS: Fix fdatasync/fsync() when confronted with a server reboot
If the server reboots before it can commit the unstable writes to disk,
then nfs_commit_release_pages() will detect this when it compares the
verifier returned by COMMIT to the one returned by WRITE. When this
happens, the client needs to resend those writes in order to guarantee
that they make it to stable storage.

This patch adds a signalling mechanism to notify fsync() that it
needs to retry all writes before it can exit.

2a369153c8 NFS: Clean up helper function nfs4_select_rw_stateid()
We want to be able to pass on the information that the page was not
dirtied under a lock. Instead of adding a flag parameter, do this
by passing a pointer to a 'struct nfs_lock_owner' that may be NULL.

Also reuse this structure in struct nfs_lock_context to carry the
fl_owner_t and pid_t.

b161dfa693 vfs: dcache: use DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED instead of DCACHE_DISCONNECTED in d_kill()
IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock
deadlock.  Commit c83ce989cb ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression
in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit.

The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the
dentry was killed.  This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too,
which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry
tree.

This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is
only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag.

IBM reported successful test results with this patch.

is seen with gcc (GCC) 4.6.3 20120306 (Red Hat 4.6.3-2) using the
-Wextra option.

Commit c76562b670 ("netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock")
accidentally replaced the "size" parameter of sk_rmem_schedule() with an
unsigned int.  This changes the semantics of the comparison in the
return statement.

In sk_wmem_schedule we have syntactically the same comparison, but
"size" is a signed integer.  In addition, __sk_mem_schedule() takes a
signed integer for its "size" parameter, so there is an implicit type
conversion in sk_rmem_schedule() anyway.

Revert the "size" parameter back to a signed integer so that the
semantics of the expressions in both sk_[rw]mem_schedule() are exactly
the same.

05cf96398e mm/ia64: fix a memory block size bug
I found following definition in include/linux/memory.h, in my IA64
platform, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is equal to 32, and MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE
will be 0.

  #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE     (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS)

Because MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE is int type and length of 32bits,
so MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE(1 << 32) will will equal to 0.
Actually when SECTION_SIZE_BITS >= 31, MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be wrong.
This will cause wrong system memory infomation in sysfs.
I think it should be:

  #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE     (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS)

And "echo offline > memory0/state" will cause following call trace:

37407ea7f9 Revert "sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies', which withstand random perturbations"
This reverts commit 970e178985.

Nikolay Ulyanitsky reported thatthe 3.6-rc5 kernel has a 15-20%
performance drop on PostgreSQL 9.2 on his machine (running "pgbench").

Borislav Petkov was able to reproduce this, and bisected it to this
commit 970e178985 ("sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies' ...")
apparently because the new single-idle-buddy model simply doesn't find
idle CPU's to reschedule on aggressively enough.

Mike Galbraith suspects that it is likely due to the user-mode spinlocks
in PostgreSQL not reacting well to preemption, but we don't really know
the details - I'll just revert the commit for now.

There are hopefully other approaches to improve scheduler scalability
without it causing these kinds of downsides.

0848c94fb4 mfd: core: Push irqdomain mapping out into devices
Currently the MFD core supports remapping MFD cell interrupts using an
irqdomain but only if the MFD is being instantiated using device tree
and only if the device tree bindings use the pattern of registering IPs
in the device tree with compatible properties.  This will be actively
harmful for drivers which support non-DT platforms and use this pattern
for their DT bindings as it will mean that the core will silently change
remapping behaviour and it is also limiting for drivers which don't do
DT with this particular pattern.  There is also a potential fragility if
there are interrupts not associated with MFD cells and all the cells are
omitted from the device tree for some reason.

Instead change the code to take an IRQ domain as an optional argument,
allowing drivers to take the decision about the parent domain for their
interrupts.  The one current user of this feature is ab8500-core, it has
the domain lookup pushed out into the driver.

c076ada4e4 i2c: pnx: Fix read transactions of >= 2 bytes
On transactions with n>=2 bytes, the controller actually wrongly clocks in n+1
bytes. This is caused by the (wrong) assumption that RFE in the Status Register
is 1 iff there is no byte already ordered (via a dummy TX byte). This lead to
the implementation of synchronized byte ordering, e.g.:

Dummy-TX - RX - Dummy-TX - RX - ...

But since RFE actually stays high after some Dummy-TX, it rather looks like:

Dummy-TX - Dummy-TX - RX - Dummy-TX - RX - (RX)

The last RX byte is clocked in by the bus controller, but ignored by the kernel
when filling the userspace buffer.

This patch fixes the issue by asking for RX via Dummy-TX asynchronously.
Introducing a separate counter for TX bytes.

777bf135b7 Merge branch 'master' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless into for-davem
John W. Linville says:

====================
Please pull these fixes intended for 3.6.  There are more commits
here than I would like -- I got a bit behind while I was stalking
Steven Rostedt in San Diego last week...  I'll slow it down after this!

There are a couple of pulls here.  One is from Johannes:

"Please pull (according to the below information) to get a few fixes.

 * a fix to properly disconnect in the driver when authentication or
   association fails
 * a fix to prevent invalid information about mesh paths being reported
   to userspace
 * a memory leak fix in an nl80211 error path"

The other comes via Gustavo:

"A few updates for the 3.6 kernel. There are two btusb patches to add
more supported devices through the new USB_VENDOR_AND_INTEFACE_INFO()
macro and another one that add a new device id for a Sony Vaio laptop,
one fix for a user-after-free and, finally, two patches from Vinicius
to fix a issue in SMP pairing."

Along with those...

Arend van Spriel provides a fix for a use-after-free bug in brcmfmac.

Daniel Drake avoids a hang by not trying to touch the libertas hardware
duing suspend if it is already powered-down.

Felix Fietkau provides a batch of ath9k fixes that adress some
potential problems with power settings, as well as a fix to avoid a
potential interrupt storm.

Gertjan van Wingerde provides a register-width fix for rt2x00, and
a rt2x00 fix to prevent incorrectly detecting the rfkill status.
He also provides a device ID patch.

Hante Meuleman gives us three brcmfmac fixes, one that properly
initializes a command structure, one that fixes a race condition that
could lose usb requests, and one that removes some log spam.

Marc Kleine-Budde offers an rt2x00 fix for a voltage setting on some
specific devices.

Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan sent an ath9k fix to avoid a crash related to
using timers that aren't allocated when 2 wire bluetooth coexistence
hardware is in use.

Sergei Poselenov changes rt2800usb to do some validity checking for
received packets, avoiding crashes on an ARM Soc.

Stone Piao gives us an mwifiex fix for an incorrectly set skb length
value for a command buffer.

All of these are localized to their specific drivers, and relatively
small.  The power-related patches from Felix are bigger than I would
like, but I merged them in consideration of their isolation to ath9k
and the sensitive nature of power settings in wireless devices.
