Fix limited cpufreq when booted on battery
If booted on battery:
cpufreq_set_policy (evil) is invoked which calls verify_within_limits.
max_freq gets lowered and therefore users_policy.max, which
is used to restore higher freqs via update_policy later is set to the
already limited frequency -> you can never go up again, even BIOS

cfq-iosched: fix alias + front merge bug
There's a really rare and obscure bug in CFQ, that causes a crash in
cfq_dispatch_insert() due to rq == NULL. One example of the resulting
oops is seen here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/15/41
Neil correctly diagnosed the situation for how this can happen: if two
concurrent requests with the exact same sector number (due to direct IO
or aliasing between MD and the raw device access), the alias handling
will add the request to the sortlist, but next_rq remains NULL.
Read the more complete analysis at:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/25/57
This looks like it requires md to trigger, even though it should
potentially be possible to due with O_DIRECT (at least if you edit the
kernel and doctor some of the unplug calls).
The fix is to move the ->next_rq update to when we add a request to the
rbtree. Then we remove the possibility for a request to exist in the
rbtree code, but not have ->next_rq correctly updated.

sis900: Allocate rx replacement buffer before rx operation
The sis900 driver appears to have a bug in which the receive routine
passes the skbuff holding the received frame to the network stack before
refilling the buffer in the rx ring. If a new skbuff cannot be allocated, the
driver simply leaves a hole in the rx ring, which causes the driver to stop
receiving frames and become non-recoverable without an rmmod/insmod according to
reporters. This patch reverses that order, attempting to allocate a replacement
buffer first, and receiving the new frame only if one can be allocated. If no
skbuff can be allocated, the current skbuf in the rx ring is recycled, dropping
the current frame, but keeping the NIC operational.

This is one way to solve the problem without re-arranging structure members
is to pack the structure. The patch adds an __attribute__((aligned(8))) to
the taskstats structure members so that 32 bit applications using taskstats
can work with a 64 bit kernel.
Using __attribute__((packed)) would break the 64 bit alignment of members.
The fix was tested on x86_64. After the fix, we got

noreplacement is dangerous on modern systems because it will not replace the
context switch FNSAVE with SSE aware FXSAVE. But other places in the kernel still assume
SSE and do FXSAVE and the CPU will then access FXSAVE information with
FNSAVE and cause corruption.
Easiest way to avoid this is to remove the option. It was mostly for paranoia
reasons anyways and alternative()s have been stable for some time.

RPC: Fix the TCP resend semantics for NFSv4
Fix a regression due to the patch "NFS: disconnect before retrying NFSv4
requests over TCP"
The assumption made in xprt_transmit() that the condition
"req->rq_bytes_sent == 0 and request is on the receive list"
should imply that we're dealing with a retransmission is false.
Firstly, it may simply happen that the socket send queue was full
at the time the request was initially sent through xprt_transmit().
Secondly, doing this for each request that was retransmitted implies
that we disconnect and reconnect for _every_ request that happened to
be retransmitted irrespective of whether or not a disconnection has
already occurred.
Fix is to move this logic into the call_status request timeout handler.

[MIPS] Fix wrong checksum for split TCP packets on 64-bit MIPS
I've traced down an off-by-one TCP checksum calculation error under
the following conditions:
1) The TCP code needs to split a full-sized packet due to a reduced
MSS (typically due to the addition of TCP options mid-stream like
SACK).
_AND_
2) The checksum of the 2nd fragment is larger than the checksum of the
original packet. After subtraction this results in a checksum for
the 1st fragment with bits 16..31 set to 1. (this is ok)
_AND_
3) The checksum of the 1st fragment's TCP header plus the previously
32bit checksum of the 1st fragment DOES NOT cause a 32bit overflow
when added together. This results in a checksum of the TCP header
plus TCP data that still has the upper 16 bits as 1's.
_THEN_
4) The TCP+data checksum is added to the checksum of the pseudo IP
header with csum_tcpudp_nofold() incorrectly (the bug).
The problem is the checksum of the TCP+data is passed to
csum_tcpudp_nofold() as an 32bit unsigned value, however the assembly
code acts on it as if it is a 64bit unsigned value.
This causes an incorrect 32->64bit extension if the sum has bit 31
set. The resulting checksum is off by one.
This problems is data and TCP header dependent due to #2 and #3
above so it doesn't occur on every TCP packet split.

spidernet: Fix problem sending IP fragments
The basic structure of "normal" UDP/IP/Ethernet
frames (that actually work):
- It starts with the Ethernet header (dest MAC, src MAC, etc.)
- The next part is occupied by the IP header (version info, length of
packet, id=0, fragment offset=0, checksum, from / to address, etc.)
- Then comes the UDP header (src / dest port, length, checksum)
- Actual payload
- Ethernet checksum
Now what's different for IP fragment:
- The IP header has id set to some value (same for all fragments),
offset is set appropriately (i.e. 0 for first fragment, following
according to size of other fragments), size is the length of the frame.
- UDP header is unchanged. I.e. length is according to full UDP
datagram, not just the part within the actual frame! But this is only
true within the first frame: all following frames don't have a valid
UDP-header at all.
The spidernet silicon seems to be quite intelligent: It's able to
compute (IP / UDP / Ethernet) checksums on the fly and tests if frames
are conforming to RFC -- at least conforming to RFC on complete frames.
But IP fragments are different as explained above:
I.e. for IP fragments containing part of a UDP datagram it sees
incompatible length in the headers for IP and UDP in the first frame
and, thus, skips this frame. But the content *is* correct for IP
fragments. For all following frames it finds (most probably) no valid
UDP header at all. But this *is* also correct for IP fragments.
The Linux IP-stack seems to be clever in this point. It expects the
spidernet to calculate the checksum (since the module claims to be able
to do so) and marks the skb's for "normal" frames accordingly
(ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_HW).
But for the IP fragments it does not expect the driver to be capable to
handle the frames appropriately. Thus all checksums are allready
computed. This is also flaged within the skb (ip_summed set to
CHECKSUM_NONE).
Unfortunately the spidernet driver ignores that hints. It tries to send
the IP fragments of UDP datagrams as normal UDP/IP frames. Since they
have different structure the silicon detects them the be not
"well-formed" and skips them.
The following one-liner against 2.6.21-rc2 changes this behavior. If the
IP-stack claims to have done the checksumming, the driver should not
try to checksum (and analyze) the frame but send it as is.

[NETLINK]: Don't attach callback to a going-away netlink socket
There is a race between netlink_dump_start() and netlink_release()
that can lead to the situation when a netlink socket with non-zero
callback is freed.
Here it is:
CPU1: CPU2
netlink_release(): netlink_dump_start():
sk = netlink_lookup(); /* OK */
netlink_remove();
spin_lock(&nlk->cb_lock);
if (nlk->cb) { /* false */

}

spin_unlock(&nlk->cb_lock);
...
sock_orphan(sk);
/*
* proceed with releasing
* the socket
*/
The proposal it to make sock_orphan before detaching the callback
in netlink_release() and to check for the sock to be SOCK_DEAD in
netlink_dump_start() before setting a new callback.

This patch fixes an oops first reported in mid 2006 - see
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/29/358 The cause of this bug report is that
when an error is signalled on the socket, irda_recvmsg_stream returns
without removing a local wait_queue variable from the socket's sk_sleep
queue. This causes havoc further down the road.
In response to this problem, a patch was made that invoked sock_orphan on
the socket when receiving a disconnect indication. This is not a good fix,
as this sets sk_sleep to NULL, causing applications sleeping in recvmsg
(and other places) to oops.
This is against the latest net-2.6 and should be considered for -stable

The way partial delivery is currently implemnted, it is possible to

a message to not be a fragment and be 'in order' or unorderd for a

message will be delivered to the socket in the middle of partial delivery.
This is a two-fold problem, in that:

2. this clearing partial delivery state from the association and results
