Commit f18f982ab ("sched: CPU hotplug events must not destroy scheduler
domains created by the cpusets") introduced a hotplug-related problem as
described below:
Upon CPU_DOWN_PREPARE,
update_sched_domains() -> detach_destroy_domains(&cpu_online_map)
does the following:
/*
* Force a reinitialization of the sched domains hierarchy. The domains
* and groups cannot be updated in place without racing with the balancing
* code, so we temporarily attach all running cpus to the NULL domain
* which will prevent rebalancing while the sched domains are recalculated.
*/
The sched-domains should be rebuilt when a CPU_DOWN ops. has been
completed, effectively either upon CPU_DEAD{_FROZEN} (upon success) or
CPU_DOWN_FAILED{_FROZEN} (upon failure -- restore the things to their
initial state). That's what update_sched_domains() also does but only
for !CPUSETS case.
With f18f982ab, sched-domains' reinitialization is delegated to
CPUSETS code:
cpuset_handle_cpuhp() -> common_cpu_mem_hotplug_unplug() ->
rebuild_sched_domains()
Being called for CPU_UP_PREPARE and if its callback is called after
update_sched_domains()), it just negates all the work done by
update_sched_domains() -- i.e. a soon-to-be-offline cpu is included in
the sched-domains and that makes it visible for the load-balancer
while the CPU_DOWN ops. is in progress.
__migrate_live_tasks() moves the tasks off a 'dead' cpu (it's already
"offline" when this function is called).
try_to_wake_up() is called for one of these tasks from another CPU ->
the load-balancer (wake_idle()) picks up a "dead" CPU and places the
task on it. Then e.g. BUG_ON(rq->nr_running) detects this a bit later
-> oops.

The current definition of wksidarr works fine on little endian arches
(since cpu_to_le32 is a no-op there), but on big-endian arches, it fails
to compile with this error:
error: braced-group within expression allowed only inside a function
The problem is that this static declaration has cpu_to_le32 embedded
within it, and that expands into a function macro. We need to use
__constant_cpu_to_le32() instead.

Try this:
mount a share with unix extensions
create a file on it
umount the share
You'll get the following message in the ring buffer:
VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of cifs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a
nice day...
...the problem is that cifs_get_inode_info_unix is creating and hashing
a new inode even when it's going to return error anyway. The first
lookup when creating a file returns an error so we end up leaking this
inode before we do the actual create. This appears to be a regression
caused by commit 0e4bbde94f.
The following patch seems to fix it for me, and fixes a minor
formatting nit as well.

Cortland Setlow pointed out a bug in ov7670.c where the result from
ov7670_read() was just being checked for !0, rather than <0. This made me
realize that ov7670_read's semantics were rather confusing; it both fills
in 'value' with the result, and returns it. This is goes against general
kernel convention; so rather than fixing callers, let's fix the function.
This makes ov7670_read return <0 in the case of an error, and 0 upon
success. Thus, code like:
res = ov7670_read(...);
if (!res)
goto error;
..will work properly.

This patch is a bugfix for how defio handles multiple processes manipulating
the same framebuffer.
Thanks to Bernard Blackham for identifying this bug.
It occurs when two applications mmap the same framebuffer and concurrently
write to the same page. Normally, this doesn't occur since only a single
process mmaps the framebuffer. The symptom of the bug is that the mapping
applications will hang. The cause is that defio incorrectly tries to add the
same page twice to the pagelist. The solution I have is to walk the pagelist
and check for a duplicate before adding. Since I needed to walk the pagelist,
I now also keep the pagelist in sorted order.

If you do a modremove of any sas driver, you run into an oops on
shutdown when the host is removed (coming from the host bsg device).
The root cause seems to be that there's a use after free of the
bsg_class_device: In bsg_kref_release_function, this is used (to do a
put_device(bcg->parent) after bcg->release has been called. In sas (and
possibly many other things) bcd->release frees the queue which contains
the bsg_class_device, so we get a put_device on unreferenced memory.
Fix this by taking a copy of the pointer to the parent before releasing
bsg.

There's a fault on the FC controllers that makes them not respond
correctly to MSI. The SPI controllers are fine, but are likely to be
onboard on older motherboards which don't handle MSI correctly, so
default both these cases to disabled. Enable by setting the module
parameter mpt_msi_enable=1.
For the SAS case, enable MSI by default, but it can be disabled by
setting the module parameter mpt_msi_enable=0.

Currently, ipr does not support HDIO_GET_IDENTITY to SATA devices.
An oops occurs if userspace attempts to send the command. Since hald
issues the command, ensure we fail the ioctl in ipr. This is a
temporary solution to the oops. Once the ipr libata EH conversion
is upstream, ipr will fully support HDIO_GET_IDENTITY.
