This patch stops CompactFlash devices being marked as removable. They are
not removable (as defined by Linux) as the media and device are
inseparable. When a card is removed, the whole device is removed from the
system and never sits in a media-less state.
This stops some nasty udev device creation/destruction loops.
Further, once this change is made, there is no need for ide to can be
removed from ide_drive_t.

Change locking in the new tty buffering facility from using tty->read_lock,
which is currently ignored by drivers and thus ineffective. New locking
uses a new tty buffering specific lock enforced centrally in the tty
buffering code.
Two drivers (esp and cyclades) are updated to use the tty buffering
functions instead of accessing tty buffering internals directly. This is
required for the new locking to work.
Minor checks for NULL buffers added to

This fixes the code like this:
bh = sb_find_get_block (sb, tmp + j);
if ((bh && DATA_BUFFER_USED(bh)) || tmp != fs32_to_cpu(sb, *p)) {
retry = 1;
brelse (bh);
goto next1;
}
bforget (bh);
sb_find_get_block() ordinarily returns a buffer_head with b_count>=2, and
this code assume that in case if "b_count>1" buffer is used, so this caused
infinite loop.
(akpm: that is-the-buffer-busy code is incomprehensible. Good riddance. Use
of block_truncate_page() seems sane).

"rm" command, on file system with "ufs1" type cause system hang up. This
is, in fact, not so bad as it seems to be, because of after that in "kernel
control path" there are 3-4 places which may cause "oops".
So the first patch fix oopses, and the second patch fix "kernel hang up".
"oops" appears because of reading of group's summary info partly wrong, and
access to not first group's summary info cause "oops".

I noticed that list.h init functions were evaluating macro arguments
multiple times and thought it might be nice to protect the unsuspecting
caller. Converting the macros to inline functions seems to reduce code
size, too. A i386 defconfig build with gcc 3.3.3 from fc4:

Most of the 64 bit architectures will zero extend the first argument to
compat_sys_{openat,newfstatat,futimesat} which will fail if the 32 bit
syscall was passed AT_FDCWD (which is a small negative number). Declare
the first argument to be an unsigned int which will force the correct
sign extension when the internal functions are called in each case.
Also, do some small white space cleanups in fs/compat.c.

This fixes a bug whereby if two processes try to look up the same auth_gss
credential, they may end up creating two creds, and triggering two upcalls
because the upcall is performed before the credential is added to the
credcache.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
When we look up a new cred in the auth_gss downcall so that we can stuff
the credcache, we do not want that lookup to queue up an upcall in order
to initialise it. To do an upcall here not only redundant, but since we
are already holding the inode->i_mutex, it will trigger a lock recursion.
This patch allows rpcauth cache searches to indicate that they can cope
with uninitialised credentials.

If the server returns NLM_LCK_DENIED_NOLOCKS, we currently retry the
entire NLM_CANCEL request. This may end up looping forever unless the
server changes its mind (why would it do that, though?).

The OpenGroup docs state that the arguments "block", "exclusive" and
"alock" must exactly match the arguments for the lock call that we are
trying to cancel.
Currently, "block" is always set to false, which is wrong.
