Use '#ifdef' consistently on __KERNEL__. This was reported as bug #5340
(isn't easier to send a fix than report the bug?!)

Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run
list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a
freed iocb. The kick path could delete the task_list item from the wait
queue before getting the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list.
The run path was testing the task_list item outside the lock so that it
could catch ki_retry methods that return -EIOCBRETRY *without* putting the
iocb on a wait queue and promising to call kick_iocb. This unlocked check
could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on
the run list.
The patch stops the run path from testing task_list by requring that any
ki_retry that returns -EIOCBRETRY *must* guarantee that kick_iocb() will be
called in the future. aio_p{read,write}, the only in-tree -EIOCBRETRY
users, are updated.

Roland points out that the flags end up having non-obvious dependencies
elsewhere, so revert aa55a08687059aa169d10a313c41f238c2070488 and add
some comments about why things are as they are.
We'll just have to fix up the broken comparisons. Roland has a patch.

do_signal_stop:
for_each_thread(t) {
if (t->state < TASK_STOPPED)
++sig->group_stop_count;
}
However, TASK_NONINTERACTIVE > TASK_STOPPED, so this loop will not
count TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE | TASK_NONINTERACTIVE threads.
See also wait_task_stopped(), which checks ->state > TASK_STOPPED.

[ We really probably should always use the appropriate bitmasks to test
task states, not do it like this. Using something like
#define TASK_RUNNABLE (TASK_RUNNING | TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE | \
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE | TASK_NONINTERACTIVE)
and then doing "if (task->state & TASK_RUNNABLE)" or similar. But the
ordering of the task states is historical, and keeping the ordering
does make sense regardless. ]

The attached patch adds extra permission grants to keys for the possessor of a
key in addition to the owner, group and other permissions bits. This makes
SUID binaries easier to support without going as far as labelling keys and key
targets using the LSM facilities.
This patch adds a second "pointer type" to key structures (struct key_ref *)
that can have the bottom bit of the address set to indicate the possession of
a key. This is propagated through searches from the keyring to the discovered
key. It has been made a separate type so that the compiler can spot attempts
to dereference a potentially incorrect pointer.
The "possession" attribute can't be attached to a key structure directly as
it's not an intrinsic property of a key.
Pointers to keys have been replaced with struct key_ref *'s wherever
possession information needs to be passed through.
This does assume that the bottom bit of the pointer will always be zero on
return from kmem_cache_alloc().
The key reference type has been made into a typedef so that at least it can be
located in the sources, even though it's basically a pointer to an undefined
type. I've also renamed the accessor functions to be more useful, and all
reference variables should now end in "_ref".

Place them on separate cache lines in SMP to lower memory bouncing
between multiple CPU accessing the device.
- One part is mostly used on receive path (including
eth_type_trans()) (poll_list, poll, quota, weight, last_rx,
dev_addr, broadcast)
- One part is mostly used on queue transmit path (qdisc)
(queue_lock, qdisc, qdisc_sleeping, qdisc_list, tx_queue_len)
- One part is mostly used on xmit path (device)
(xmit_lock, xmit_lock_owner, priv, hard_start_xmit, trans_start)
'features' is placed outside of these hot points, in a location that
may be shared by all cpus (because mostly read)
name_hlist is moved close to name[IFNAMSIZ] to speedup __dev_get_by_name()

When you've enabled conntrack and NAT as a module (standard case in all
distributions), and you've also enabled the new conntrack netlink
interface, loading ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will auto-load iptable_nat.ko.
This causes a huge performance penalty, since for every packet you iterate
the nat code, even if you don't want it.
This patch splits iptable_nat.ko into the NAT core (ip_nat.ko) and the
iptables frontend (iptable_nat.ko). Threfore, ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will
only pull ip_nat.ko, but not the frontend. ip_nat.ko will "only" allocate
some resources, but not affect runtime performance.
This separation is also a nice step in anticipation of new packet filters
(nf-hipac, ipset, pkttables) being able to use the NAT core.

Echo Audio cardbus products are known to be incompatible with EnE bridges.
in order to maybe solve the problem a EnE specific test bit has to be set,
another cleared...but other setups have a good chance to break when just
forcing the bits. so do the whole thingy automatically.
The patch adds a hook in cb_alloc() that allows special tuning for the
different chipsets. for ene just match the Echo products and set/clear the
test bits, defaults to do the same thing as w/o the patch to not break
working setups.

This patch fixes a number of bugs. It cannot be reasonably split up in
multiple fixes, since all bugs interact with each other and affect the same
function:
Bug #1:
The event cache code cannot be called while a lock is held. Therefore, the
call to ip_conntrack_event_cache() within ip_ct_refresh_acct() needs to be
moved outside of the locked section. This fixes a number of 2.6.14-rcX
oops and deadlock reports.
Bug #2:
We used to call ct_add_counters() for unconfirmed connections without
holding a lock. Since the add operations are not atomic, we could race
with another CPU.
Bug #3:
ip_ct_refresh_acct() lost REFRESH events in some cases where refresh
(and the corresponding event) are desired, but no accounting shall be
performed. Both, evenst and accounting implicitly depended on the skb
parameter bein non-null. We now re-introduce a non-accounting
"ip_ct_refresh()" variant to explicitly state the desired behaviour.

In the lead up to 2.6.13 I fixed a large number of reboot problems by
making the calling conventions consistent. Despite checking and double
checking my work it appears I missed an obvious one.
This first patch simply refactors the reboot routines so all of the
preparation for various kinds of reboots are in their own functions.
Making it very hard to get the various kinds of reboot out of sync.

Hugh made me note this line for permission checking in mprotect():
if ((newflags & ~(newflags >> 4)) & 0xf) {
after figuring out what's that about, I decided it's nasty enough. Btw
Hugh itself didn't like the 0xf.
We can safely change it to VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC because we never change
VM_SHARED, so no need to check that.

Kill an unused member of the i2c_adapter structure. This additionally
fixes a potential bug, because <linux/i2c.h> doesn't include
<linux/config.h>, so different files including <linux/i2c.h> could see a
different definition of the i2c_adapter structure, depending on them
including <linux/config.h> (or other header files themselves including
<linux/config.h>) before <linux/i2c.h>, or not.

As discussed in the dccp@vger mailing list:
Now applications have to use setsockopt(DCCP_SOCKOPT_SERVICE, service[s]),
prior to calling listen() and connect().
An array of unsigned ints can be passed meaning that the listening sock accepts
connection requests for several services.
With this we can ditch struct sockaddr_dccp and use only sockaddr_in (and
sockaddr_in6 in the future).

[ALSA] Remove superfluous PCI ID definitions
broke the RME32 and RME96 drivers, since the PCI IDs they use seem to have
changed names. Here's a patch to fix this -- compile tested only, since I
have no idea what the hardware even is.
Fix the build of the RME32 and RME96 drivers by having them use the
PCI_DEVICE_ID_RME_xxx names defined in <linux/pci_ids.h> instead of the
PCI_DEVICE_ID_xxx names that they used to define themselves.
Also fix the typo in the id PCI_DEVICE_IDRME__DIGI96_8_PAD_OR_PST so the
name is PCI_DEVICE_ID_RME_DIGI96_8_PAD_OR_PST.
