We have a bad interaction with both the kernel and user space being able
to change some of the /proc file status. This fixes the most obvious
part of it, but I expect we'll also make it harder for users to modify
even their "own" files in /proc.

The inline function compare_ether_addr is faster than memcmp.
Also, don't need to drag in proc_fs.h, the only reference to proc_dir_entry
is a pointer so the declaration is needed here.

The upper bound for HTB time diff needs to be scaled to PSCHED
units rather than just assuming usecs. The field mbuffer is used
in TDIFF_SAFE(), as an upper bound.

when data arrives at IP through loopback (and possibly other devices).
So the field needs to be cleared before it confuses the route code.
This was seen when running netem over loopback, but there are probably
other device cases. Maybe this should go into stable?

When pskb_trim has to defer to ___pksb_trim to trim the frag_list part of
the packet, the frag_list is not updated to reflect the trimming. This
will usually work fine until you hit something that uses the packet length
or tail from the frag_list.
Examples include esp_output and ip_fragment.
Another problem caused by this is that you can end up with a linear packet
with a frag_list attached.
It is possible to get away with this if we audit everything to make sure
that they always consult skb->len before going down onto frag_list. In
fact we can do the samething for the paged part as well to avoid copying
the data area of the skb. For now though, let's do the conservative fix
and update frag_list.
Many thanks to Marco Berizzi for helping me to track down this bug.
This 4-year old bug took 3 months to track down. Marco was very patient
indeed :)

Chandra Seetharaman reported SLAB crashes caused by the slab.c lock
annotation patch. There is only one chunk of that patch that has a
material effect on the slab logic - this patch undoes that chunk.
This was confirmed to fix the slab problem by Chandra.

With some memory model other than FLATMEM, the single node can
contains some holes so there might be many invalid pages. For
example, with two 256M memory and one 256M hole, some variables
(num_physpage, totalpages, nr_kernel_pages, nr_all_pages, etc.) will
indicate that there are 768MB on this system. This is not desired
because, for example, alloc_large_system_hash() allocates too many
entries.
Use free_area_init_node() with counted zholes_size[] instead of
free_area_init().
For num_physpages, use number of ram pages instead of max_low_pfn.
