Fix a regression reported by Max Kellermann whereby kernel profiling
showed that his clients were spending 45% of their time in
rpcauth_lookup_credcache.
It turns out that although his processes had identical uid/gid/groups,
generic_match() was failing to detect this, because the task->group_info
pointers were not shared. This again lead to the creation of a huge number
of identical credentials at the RPC layer.
The regression is fixed by comparing the contents of task->group_info
if the actual pointers are not identical.

Commit 81e192d6ce303b6792aa38ff35f41a1a7357f23a ("parisc: convert to

[<0000000040104ef8>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x14
The problem is that compat_arch_ptrace() enters with an addr value of
type compat_ulong_t and calls translate_usr_offset() to translate the
address offset into a struct pt_regs offset like this:
addr = translate_usr_offset(addr)
this means that any return value of translate_usr_offset() is stored
back as compat_ulong_t type into the addr variable.
But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr
can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value
sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory:
if (addr < 0)
break;
Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return
values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value
"sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator.
Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values
for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs).
This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

If a connection with open file handles has gone down
and come back up and reconnected without reopening
the file handle yet, do not attempt to send an SMB close
request for this handle in cifs_close. We were
checking for the connection being invalid in cifs_close
but since the connection may have been reconnected
we also need to check whether the file handle
was marked invalid (otherwise we could close the
wrong file handle by accident).

If the device is suspended with the cable disconnected, then
resumed with the cable connected, dev->open is called before
resume. During resume, we request an IRQ, but the IRQ was
already assigned during dev->open, resulting in the warning
shown below.
Don't request an IRQ if the device is running.

fs/hostfs/hostfs_user.c defines do_readlink() as non-static, and so does
fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_ioctl.c when CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y. So rename
do_readlink() in hostfs to hostfs_do_readlink().
I think it's better if XFS guys will also rename their do_readlink(),
it's not necessary to use such a general name.

Peter Cordes is sorry that he rm'ed his swapfiles while they were in use,
he then had no pathname to swapoff. It's a curious little oversight, but
not one worth a lot of hackery. Kudos to Willy Tarreau for turning this
around from a discussion of synthetic pathnames to how to prevent unlink.
Mimic immutable: prohibit unlinking an active swapfile in may_delete()
(and don't worry my little head over the tiny race window).

In the past, GFP_NOFS (but of course not GFP_NOIO) was allowed to reclaim
by writing to swap. That got partially broken in 2.6.23, when may_enter_fs
initialization was moved up before the allocation of swap, so its
PageSwapCache test was failing the first time around,
Fix it by setting may_enter_fs when add_to_swap() succeeds with
__GFP_IO. In fact, check __GFP_IO before calling add_to_swap():
allocating swap we're not ready to use just increases disk seeking.

Page migration's writeout() has got understandably confused by the nasty
AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE case: as in normal success, a writepage() error has
unlocked the page, so writeout() then needs to relock it.

sprint_symbol(), itself used when dumping stacks, has been wasting 128
bytes of stack: lookup the symbol directly into the buffer supplied by the
caller, instead of using a locally declared namebuf.
I believe the name != buffer strcpy() is obsolete: the design here dates
from when module symbol lookup pointed into a supposedly const but sadly
volatile table; nowadays it copies, but an uncalled strcpy() looks better
here than the risk of a recursive BUG_ON().

As Balbir pointed out, memcg's pre_destroy handler has potential deadlock.
It has following lock sequence.
cgroup_mutex (cgroup_rmdir)
-> pre_destroy -> mem_cgroup_pre_destroy-> force_empty
-> cpu_hotplug.lock. (lru_add_drain_all->
schedule_work->
get_online_cpus)
But, cpuset has following.
cpu_hotplug.lock (call notifier)
-> cgroup_mutex. (within notifier)
Then, this lock sequence should be fixed.
Considering how pre_destroy works, it's not necessary to holding
cgroup_mutex() while calling it.
As a side effect, we don't have to wait at this mutex while memcg's
force_empty works.(it can be long when there are tons of pages.)

Current vmalloc restart search for a free area in case we can't find one.
The reason is there are areas which are lazily freed, and could be
possibly freed now. However, current implementation start searching the
tree from the last failing address, which is pretty much by definition at
the end of address space. So, we fail.
The proposal of this patch is to restart the search from the beginning of
the requested vstart address. This fixes the regression in running KVM
virtual machines for me, described in http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/28/349,
caused by commit db64fe02258f1507e13fe5212a989922323685ce.

An initial vmalloc failure should start off a synchronous flush of lazy
areas, in case someone is in progress flushing them already, which could
cause us to return an allocation failure even if there is plenty of KVA
free.

After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated.
By reviewing the code, we found that the update function
cpuset_track_online_nodes()
was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes. It is wrong because
N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use
N_HIGH_MEMORY. So, We should invoke the update function after
node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says.
This patch fixes it. And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of
direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

I have received some reports of out-of-memory errors on some older AMD
architectures. These errors are what I would expect to see if
crypt_stat->key were split between two separate pages. eCryptfs should
not assume that any of the memory sent through virt_to_scatterlist() is
all contained in a single page, and so this patch allocates two
scatterlist structs instead of one when processing keys. I have received
confirmation from one person affected by this bug that this patch resolves
the issue for him, and so I am submitting it for inclusion in a future
stable release.
Note that virt_to_scatterlist() runs sg_init_table() on the scatterlist
structs passed to it, so the calls to sg_init_table() in
decrypt_passphrase_encrypted_session_key() are redundant.
