If root raised the default wakeup threshold over the size of the
output pool, the pool transfer function could overflow the stack with
RNG bytes, causing a DoS or potential privilege escalation.

When a CONFIG_USER_NS=n and a user tries to unshare some namespace other
than the user namespace, the dummy copy_user_ns returns NULL rather than
the old_ns.
This value then gets assigned to task->nsproxy->user_ns, so that a
subsequent setuid, which uses task->nsproxy->user_ns, causes a NULL
pointer deref.
Fix this by returning old_ns.

The slab and slob allocators already did this right, but slub would call
"get_object_page()" on the magic ZERO_SIZE_PTR, with all kinds of nasty
end results.

I suspect Christoph tested his code only in the NUMA configuration, for
the combination of SLAB+non-NUMA the zero-sized kmalloc's would not work.
Of course, this would only trigger in configurations where those zero-
sized allocations happen (not very common), so that may explain why it
wasn't more widely noticed.
Seen by by Andi Kleen under qemu, and there seems to be a report by
Michael Tsirkin on it too.

Implement the cpu_clock(cpu) interface for kernel-internal use:
high-speed (but slightly incorrect) per-cpu clock constructed from
sched_clock().
This API, unused at the moment, will be used in the future by blktrace,
by the softlockup-watchdog, by printk and by lockstat.

In the presence of SMT, newly idle balance was never happening for
multi-core and SMP domains (even when both the logical siblings are
idle).
If thread 0 is already idle and when thread 1 is about to go to idle,
newly idle load balance always think that one of the threads is not idle
and skips doing the newly idle load balance for multi-core and SMP
domains.
This is because of the idle_cpu() macro, which checks if the current
process on a cpu is an idle process. But this is not the case for the
thread doing the load_balance_newidle().
Fix this by using runqueue's nr_running field instead of idle_cpu(). And
also skip the logic of 'only one idle cpu in the group will be doing
load balancing' during newly idle case.

ide-disk calls
ide_end_request(drive, 0, 0);
to finish an unknown request, but this doesn't work so well for non-fs
requests, since ide_end_request() internally looks at ->hard_cur_sectors
to see how much data to end. Only file system requests store a transfer
value in there, pc requests fill out ->data_len as a byte based transfer
value instead.
Since we ask to end 0 bytes of that request, it will never be terminated
and ide-disk gets stuck in a loop "handling" that same request over and
over.
Switch __ide_end_request() to take a byte based transfer count, and
adjust ide_end_request() to look at the right field to determine how
much IO to end when it's being passed in 0.

Some simple fixes to properly reference counter values from the block
attribute level of edac_device objects. Properly sequencing the array pointer
was added, resulting in correct identification of block level attributes from
their base class functions.
Added more verbose debug statement for event tracking.
Also during some corner testing, found a bug in the store/show sequence
of operations for the block attribute/controls management.
An old intermediate structure for 'blocks' was still in the processing
pipeline. This patch removes that old structure and correctly utilizes the
new struct edac_dev_sysfs_block_attribute for passing control from the sysfs
to the low level store/show function of the edac driver.
Now the proper kobj pointer to passed downward to the store/show
functions.

This patch refactors the 'releasing' of kobjects for the edac_mc type of
device. The correct pattern of kobject release is followed.
As internal kobjs are allocated they bump a ref count on the top level kobj.
It in turn has a module ref count on the edac_core module. When internal
kobjects are released, they dec the ref count on the top level kobj. When the
top level kobj reaches zero, it decrements the ref count on the edac_core
object, allow it to be unloaded, as all resources have all now been released.

This patch fixes and enhances the driver level set of sysfs attributes that
can be added to the 'block' level of an edac_device type of driver.
There is a controller information structure, which contains one or more
instances of device. Each instance will have one or more blocks of device
specific counters. This patch fixes the ability to have more detailed
attributes/controls for each of the 'blocks', providing for the addition of
controls/attributes from the low level driver to user space via sysfs.

If ERRSTS indicates that there's no error then we don't need to bother reading
the other registers.
In addition to making the common case faster, this actually fixes a small race
where we don't see an error but we clear the error bits anyway, potentially
wiping away info on an error that happened in the interim (or where a CE
arrives between the first and second read of ERRSTS, causing us to falsely
claim "UE overwrote CE").
