Patch from George G. Davis
Resolve ARM1136 VIPT non-aliasing cache coherency issues observed when
using ptrace to set breakpoints and cleanup copy_{to,from}_user_page()
while we're here as requested by Russell King because "it's also far
too heavy on non-v6 CPUs".
NOTES:
1. Only access_process_vm() calls copy_{to,from}_user_page().
2. access_process_vm() calls get_user_pages() to pin down the "page".
3. get_user_pages() calls flush_dcache_page(page) which ensures cache
coherency between kernel and userspace mappings of "page". However
flush_dcache_page(page) may not invalidate I-Cache over this range
for all cases, specifically, I-Cache is not invalidated for the VIPT
non-aliasing case. So memory is consistent between kernel and user
space mappings of "page" but I-Cache may still be hot over this
range. IOW, we don't have to worry about flush_cache_page() before
memcpy().
4. Now, for the copy_to_user_page() case, after memcpy(), we must flush
the caches so memory is consistent with kernel cache entries and
invalidate the I-Cache if this mm region is executable. We don't
need to do anything after memcpy() for the copy_from_user_page()
case since kernel cache entries will be invalidated via the same
process above if we access "page" again. The flush_ptrace_access()
function (borrowed from SPARC64 implementation) is added to handle
cache flushing after memcpy() for the copy_to_user_page() case.

Patch from Ben Dooks
The type naming in the s3c24xx dma code is riddled with
typedefs creating _t types, from the code import from 2.4
which is contrary to the current Kernel coding style.
This patch cleans this up, removing the typedefs and
and fixing up the resultant code changes.

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.

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.

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).

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.

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.
