5dea271b6d dm table: pass correct dev area size to device_area_is_valid
Incorrect device area lengths are being passed to device_area_is_valid().

The regression appeared in 2.6.31-rc1 through commit
754c5fc7eb.

With the dm-stripe target, the size of the target (ti->len) was used
instead of the stripe_width (ti->len/#stripes).  An example of a
consequent incorrect error message is:

  device-mapper: table: 254:0: sdb too small for target

24c30dbbcd of/mdio: Add support function for Ethernet fixed-link property
Fixed-link support is broken for the ucc_eth, gianfar, and fs_enet
device drivers.  The "OF MDIO rework" patches removed most of the
support. Instead of re-adding fixed-link stuff to the drivers, this
patch adds a support function for parsing the fixed-link property
and obtaining a dummy phy to match.

Note: the dummy phy handling in arch/powerpc is a bit of a hack and
needs to be reworked.  This function is being added now to solve the
regression in the Ethernet drivers, but it should be considered a
temporary measure until the fixed link handling can be reworked.

7f453c24b9 perf_counter: PERF_SAMPLE_ID and inherited counters
Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by
PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID
because each inherited counter gets its own id.

His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that
is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited
counters have a unique identifier so that events like
PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which
counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the
sample streams.

This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more
common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less
useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate
value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow,
whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed,
which might only take effect on the next cycle).

This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that
_should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the
most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a
PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full
reconstruction is important.

[Does change the ABI a little, but I see no other way out]

9ba5f005c9 softirq: introduce tasklet_hrtimer infrastructure
commit ca109491f (hrtimer: removing all ur callback modes) moved all
hrtimer callbacks into hard interrupt context when high resolution
timers are active. That breaks code which relied on the assumption
that the callback happens in softirq context.

Provide a generic infrastructure which combines tasklets and hrtimers
together to provide an in-softirq hrtimer experience.

f44aebcc56 inotify: use GFP_NOFS under potential memory pressure

Two things are needed to fix this.  First we need a method to tell
fsnotify_create_event() to use GFP_NOFS and second we need to stop using
one global IN_IGNORED event and allocate them one at a time.  This solves
current issues with multiple IN_IGNORED on a queue having tail drop
problems and simplifies the allocations since we don't have to worry about
two tasks opperating on the IGNORED event concurrently.

591d2fb02e genirq: Delegate irq affinity setting to the irq thread
irq_set_thread_affinity() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() which might
sleep, but irq_set_thread_affinity() is called with desc->lock held
and can be called from hard interrupt context as well. The code has
another bug as it does not hold a ref on the task struct as required
by set_cpus_allowed_ptr().

Just set the IRQTF_AFFINITY bit in action->thread_flags. The next time
the thread runs it migrates itself. Solves all of the above problems
nicely.

Add kerneldoc to irq_set_thread_affinity() while at it.

6301cb95c1 sched: fix nr_uninterruptible accounting of frozen tasks really
commit e3c8ca8336 (sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load) broke
the nr_uninterruptible accounting on freeze/thaw. On freeze the task
is excluded from accounting with a check for (task->flags &
PF_FROZEN), but that flag is cleared before the task is thawed. So
while we prevent that the task with state TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
is accounted to nr_uninterruptible on freeze we decrement
nr_uninterruptible on thaw.

Use a separate flag which is handled by the freezing task itself. Set
it before calling the scheduler with TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and
clear it after we return from frozen state.

5c9228f0cf vt: drop bootmem/slab memory distinction
Bootmem is not used for the vt screen buffer anymore as slab is now
available at the time the console is initialized.

Get rid of the now superfluous distinction between slab and bootmem,
it's always slab.

This also fixes a kmalloc leak which Catalin described thusly:

Commit a5f4f52e ("vt: use kzalloc() instead of the bootmem allocator")
replaced the alloc_bootmem() with kzalloc() but didn't set vc_kmalloced to
1 and the memory block is later leaked.  The corresponding kmemleak trace:

43237b5490 ext3: Get rid of extenddisksize parameter of ext3_get_blocks_handle()
Get rid of extenddisksize parameter of ext3_get_blocks_handle(). This seems to
be a relict from some old days and setting disksize in this function does not
make much sence. Currently it was set only by ext3_getblk().  Since the
parameter has some effect only if create == 1, it is easy to check that the
three callers which end up calling ext3_getblk() with create == 1 (ext3_append,
ext3_quota_write, ext3_mkdir) do the right thing and set disksize themselves.
