Don't allowing sharing the root directory with processes in a
different user namespace. There doesn't seem to be any point, and to
allow it would require the overhead of putting a user namespace
reference in fs_struct (for permission checks) and incrementing that
reference count on practically every call to fork.
So just perform the inexpensive test of forbidding sharing fs_struct
acrosss processes in different user namespaces. We already disallow
other forms of threading when unsharing a user namespace so this
should be no real burden in practice.
This updates setns, clone, and unshare to disallow multiple user
namespaces sharing an fs_struct.

Because function tracing is very invasive, and can even trace
calls to rcu_read_lock(), RCU access in function tracing is done
with preempt_disable_notrace(). This requires a synchronize_sched()
for updates and not a synchronize_rcu().
Function probes (traceon, traceoff, etc) must be freed after
a synchronize_sched() after its entry has been removed from the
hash. But call_rcu() is used. Fix this by using call_rcu_sched().
Also fix the usage to use hlist_del_rcu() instead of hlist_del().

The commit 2e124b4a390ca85325fae75764bef92f0547fa25 removed the checks
that prevented qt2_process_read_urb() from trying to put chars into
ttys that weren't actually opened. This resulted in 'tty is NULL'
warnings from flush_to_ldisc() when the device was used.
The devices use just one read urb for all ports. As a result
qt2_process_read_urb() may be called with the current port set to a
port number that has not been opened. Add a check if the port is open
before calling tty_flip_buffer_push().

commit bd877e4 ("net: qmi_wwan: use a single bind function for
all device types") made Gobi 1K devices fail probing.
Using the number of endpoints in the default altsetting to decide
whether the function use one or two interfaces is wrong. Other
altsettings may provide more endpoints.
With Gobi 1K devices, USB interface #3's altsetting is 0 by default, but
altsetting 0 only provides one interrupt endpoint and is not sufficent
for QMI. Altsetting 1 provides all 3 endpoints required for qmi_wwan
and works with QMI. Gobi 1K layout for intf#3 is:
Interface Descriptor: 255/255/255
bInterfaceNumber 3
bAlternateSetting 0
Endpoint Descriptor: Interrupt IN
Interface Descriptor: 255/255/255
bInterfaceNumber 3
bAlternateSetting 1
Endpoint Descriptor: Interrupt IN
Endpoint Descriptor: Bulk IN
Endpoint Descriptor: Bulk OUT
Prior to commit bd877e4, we would call usbnet_get_endpoints
before giving up finding enough endpoints. Removing the early
endpoint number test and the strict functional descriptor
requirement allow qmi_wwan_bind to continue until
usbnet_get_endpoints has made the final attempt to collect
endpoints. This restores the behaviour from before commit
bd877e4 without losing the added benefit of using a single bind
function.
The driver has always required a CDC Union functional descriptor
for two-interface functions. Using the existence of this
descriptor to detect two-interface functions is the logically
correct method.

Commit 8e3dffc6 introduced a regression where deleting inode with
large extended attributes leads to triggering
BUG_ON(inode->i_state != (I_FREEING | I_CLEAR))
in fs/inode.c:evict(). That happens because freeing of xattr block
dirtied the inode and it happened after clear_inode() has been called.
Fix the issue by moving removal of xattr block into ext2_evict_inode()
before clear_inode() call close to a place where data blocks are
truncated. That is also more logical place and removes surprising
requirement that ext2_free_blocks() mustn't dirty the inode.

When SCTP is done processing a duplicate cookie chunk, it tries
to delete a newly created association. For that, it has to set
the right association for the side-effect processing to work.
However, when it uses the SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC command, that performs
more work then really needed (like hashing the associationa and
assigning it an id) and there is no point to do that only to
delete the association as a next step. In fact, it also creates
an impossible condition where an association may be found by
the getsockopt() call, and that association is empty. This
causes a crash in some sctp getsockopts.
The solution is rather simple. We simply use SCTP_CMD_SET_ASOC
command that doesn't have all the overhead and does exactly
what we need.

Commit d13ba512cbba7de5d55d7a3b2aae7d83c8921457 ("tg3: Remove
SPEED_UNKNOWN checks") cleaned up the autoneg advertisement by
removing some dead code. One effect of this change was that the
advertisement register would not be updated if autoneg is turned off.
This exposed a bug on the 5715 device w.r.t linking. The 5715 defaults
to advertise only 10Mb Full duplex. But with autoneg disabled, it needs
the configured speed enabled in the advertisement register to link up.
This patch adds the work around to advertise all speeds on the 5715 when
autoneg is disabled.

bond_update_speed_duplex() might sleep while calling underlying slave's
routines. Move it out of atomic context in bond_enslave() and remove it
from bond_miimon_commit() - it was introduced by commit 546add79, however
when the slave interfaces go up/change state it's their responsibility to
fire NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_CHANGE events so that bonding can properly update
their speed.
I've tested it on all combinations of ifup/ifdown, autoneg/speed/duplex

I had assumed that the only use of module aliases for filesystems
prior to "fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules."
was in request_module. It turns out I was wrong. At least mkinitcpio
in Arch linux uses these aliases.
So readd the preexising aliases, to keep from breaking userspace.
Userspace eventually will have to follow and use the same aliases the
kernel does. So at some point we may be delete these aliases without
problems. However that day is not today.

Good job. I was too lazy to bisect for bad commit;)
Reading the code I found problematic kthread_should_stop call from netlink
connector which causes the oops. After applying a patch, I've been testing
owfs+w1 setup for nearly two days and it seems to work very reliable (no
hangs, no memleaks etc).
More detailed description and possible fix is given below:
Function w1_search can be called from either kthread or netlink callback.
While the former works fine, the latter causes oops due to kthread_should_stop
invocation.
This patch adds a check if w1_search is serving netlink command, skipping
kthread_should_stop invocation if so.

Commit 8a1861d997 ("w1-gpio: Simplify & get rid of defines") removed the
compile guards from the device-tree id table, thereby generating a
warning when building without device-tree support.

Commit 8a1861d997 ("w1-gpio: Simplify & get rid of defines") changed
(apparently unknowingly) the driver to a hotpluggable platform-device
driver but did not not update the section markers for probe and remove
(to __devinit/exit, which have since been removed). A later commit fixed
the section mismatch for probe, but left remove marked with __exit.

Fix regression introduced by commit d2323cf773 ("onewire: w1-gpio: add
ext_pullup_enable pin in platform data") which added a gpio entry to the
platform data, but did not add the required initialisers to the board
files using it. Consequently, the driver would request gpio 0 at probe,
which could break other uses of the corresponding pin.
On AT91 requesting gpio 0 changes the pin muxing for PIOA0, which, for
instance, breaks SPI0 on at91sam9g20.

Commit 5ac47f7a6efb (powerpc: Relocate prom_init.c on 64bit) made
prom_init.c position independent by manually relocating its entries
in the TOC.
We get the address of the TOC entries with the __prom_init_toc_start
linker symbol. If __prom_init_toc_start ends up as an entry in the
TOC then we need to add an offset to get the current address. This is
the case for older toolchains.
On the other hand, if we have a newer toolchain that supports
-mcmodel=medium then __prom_init_toc_start will be created by a
relative offset from r2 (the TOC pointer). Since r2 has already been
relocated, nothing more needs to be done. Adding an offset in this
case is wrong and Aaro Koskinen and Alexander Graf have noticed noticed
G5 and OpenBIOS breakage.
Alan Modra suggested we just use r2 to get at the TOC which is simpler
and works with both old and new toolchains.

Commit 44ae3ab3358e962039c36ad4ae461ae9fb29596c forgot to update
the entry for the 970MP rev 1.0 processor when moving some CPU
features bits to the MMU feature bit mask. This breaks booting
on some rare G5 models using that chip revision.
