92cccc2cda ath9k: disable MIB interrupts to fix interrupt storm
Enabling the MIB interrupts has proven to cause an
interrupt storm after 7 hours of run. We will make use of the
MIB interrupt once we have ANI supported added so for now
to cure this we disable the interrupt.

The interrupt storm can be seen as follows after 7 hours of run
as reported by  Steven Noonan <steven@uplinklabs.net>:

18:28:38          sum   1106.00

18:28:50          sum  18566.67
18:28:51          sum  18913.13

at 18:28:44 the MIB interrupt kicked off and caused huge
latency which can be seen even on a video he submitted:

cifs: Convert cifs to new aops.

This patch is based on the one originally posted by Nick Piggin. His
patch was very close, but had a couple of small bugs. Nick's original
comments follow:

This is another relatively naive conversion. Always do the read upfront
when the page is not uptodate (unless we're in the writethrough path).

Fix an uninitialized data exposure where SetPageUptodate was called
before the page was uptodate.

SetPageUptodate and switch to writeback mode in the case that the full
page was dirtied.

7ce86d5a93 cifs: work around samba returning -ENOENT on SetFileDisposition call
cifs: work around samba returning -ENOENT on SetFileDisposition call

Samba seems to return STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND when we try to set
the delete on close bit after doing a rename by filehandle. This looks
like a samba bug to me, but a lot of servers will do this. For now,
pretend an -ENOENT return is a success.

Samba does however seem to respect the CREATE_DELETE_ON_CLOSE bit
when opening files that already exist. Windows will ignore it, but
so adding it to the open flags should be harmless.

We're also currently ignoring the return code on the rename by
filehandle, so no need to set rc based on it.

d40e944c25 ntp: improve adjtimex frequency rounding
Change PPM_SCALE_INV_SHIFT so that it doesn't throw away any input bits
(19 is the amount of the factor 2 in PPM_SCALE), the output frequency
can then be calculated back to its input value, as the inverse divide
produce a slightly larger value, which is then correctly rounded by the
final shift.

5cd1c9c5cf timekeeping: fix rounding problem during clock update
Due to a rounding problem during a clock update it's possible for readers
to observe the clock jumping back by 1nsec.  The following simplified
example demonstrates the problem:

cycle	xtime
0	0
1000	999999.6
2000	1999999.2
3000	2999998.8
...

1500 =	1499999.4
=	0.0 + 1499999.4
=	999999.6 + 499999.8

When reading the clock only the full nanosecond part is used, while
timekeeping internally keeps nanosecond fractions.  If the clock is now
updated at cycle 1500 here, a nanosecond is missing due to the truncation.

The simple fix is to round up the xtime value during the update, this also
changes the distance to the reference time, but the adjustment will
automatically take care that it stays under control.

5a51b713cc posix-timers: lock_timer: kill the bogus ->it_id check
lock_timer() checks that the timer found by idr_find(timer_id) has ->it_id
== timer_id.  This buys nothing.  This check can fail only if
sys_timer_create() unlocked idr_lock after idr_get_new(), but didn't set
->it_id = new_timer_id yet.  But in that case ->it_process == NULL so
lock_timer() can't succeed anyway.

Also remove a couple of unneeded typecasts.

Note that with or without this patch we have a small problem. 
sys_timer_create() doesn't ensure that the result of setting (say)
->it_sigev_notify must be visible if lock_timer() succeeds.

ef864c9588 posix-timers: sys_timer_create: cleanup the error handling
Cleanup.

- sys_timer_create() is big and complicated. The code above the "out:"
  label relies on the fact that "error" must be == 0. This is not very
  robust, make the code more explicit. Remove the unneeded initialization
  of error.

- If idr_get_new() succeeds (as it normally should), we check the returned
  value twice. Move the "-EAGAIN" check under "if (error)".

36b2f04600 posix-timers: sys_timer_create: simplify and s/tasklist/rcu/
- Change the code to do rcu_read_lock() instead of taking tasklist_lock,
  it is safe to get_task_struct(p) if p was found under RCU.

  However, now we must not use process's sighand/signal, they may be NULL.
  We can use current->sighand/signal instead, this "process" must belong
  to the current's thread-group.

- Factor out the common code for 2 "if (timer_event_spec)" branches, the
  !timer_event_spec case can use current too.

- use spin_lock_irq() instead of _irqsave(), kill "flags".

2cd499e38e posix-timers: sys_timer_create: remove the buggy PF_EXITING check
sys_timer_create() return -EINVAL if the target thread has PF_EXITING.

This doesn't really make sense, the sub-thread can die right after unlock.
And in fact, this is just wrong.  Without SIGEV_THREAD_ID good_sigevent()
returns ->group_leader, and it is very possible that the leader is already
dead.  This is OK, we shouldn't return the error in this case.

Remove this check and the comment.  Note that the "process" was found
under tasklist_lock, it must have ->sighand != NULL.

Also, remove a couple of unneeded initializations.

4aa7361179 posix-timers: don't switch to ->group_leader if ->it_process dies
posix_timer_event() drops SIGEV_THREAD_ID and switches to ->group_leader
if send_sigqueue() fails.

This is not very useful and doesn't work reliably.  send_sigqueue() can
only fail if ->it_process is dead.  But it can die before it dequeues the
SI_TIMER signal, in that case the timer stops anyway.

Remove this code.  I guess it was needed a long ago to ensure that the
timer is not destroyed when when its creator thread dies.

Q: perhaps it makes sense to change sys_timer_settime() to return an error
if ->it_process is dead?

e51a1ac2df x86, olpc: fix endian bug in openfirmware workaround
Boardrev is always treated as a u32 everywhere else, no reason to
byteswap the 0xc2 value.  The only use is to print out if it is
a prerelease board, the test being:

(olpc_platform_info.boardrev & 0xf) < 8

Which is currently always true as be32_to_cpu(0xc2) & 0xf = 0
but I doubt that was the intention here.  The consequences of the bug
are pretty minor though (incorrect boardrev displayed in dmesg when
ofw support not configured)

Also annotate the temporary used to read the boardrev in the ofw
case.

The confusion was noticed by Sparse:

d87798450a aoe: Fix OOPS after SKB queue changes.
Reported by Thomas Graf.

If we don't unlink the SKB from the queue when we send it
out in aoenet_xmit(), dev_hard_start_xmit() will see skb->next
as non-NULL and interpret this to mean the SKB is part of a
GSO segment list.

Add __skb_unlink() call to fix that.

1253f7aabf dock: introduce .uevent for devices in dock, eg libata
dock's uevent reported itself, not ata. It might be difficult to find an
ata device just according to a dock. This patch introduces docking ops
for each device in a dock. when docking, dock driver can send device
specific uevent. This should help dock station too (not just bay)

19cd847ab2 ACPI: fix hotplug race
The hotplug notification handler and drivers' notification handler all
run in one workqueue.  Before hotplug removes an acpi device, the
device driver's notification handler is already be recorded to run just
after global notification handler.  After hotplug notification handler
runs, acpica will notice a NULL notification handler and crash.

So now we run run hotplug in another workqueue and wait
for all acpi notication handlers finish.
This was found in battery hotplug, but actually all
hotplug can be affected.
