id_map
When we require privilege for setting /proc/<pid>/uid_map or
/proc/<pid>/gid_map no longer allow an unprivileged user to
open the file and pass it to a privileged program to write
to the file.
Instead when privilege is required require both the opener and the
writer to have the necessary capabilities.
I have tested this code and verified that setting /proc/<pid>/uid_map
fails when an unprivileged user opens the file and a privielged user
attempts to set the mapping, that unprivileged users can still map
their own id, and that a privileged users can still setup an arbitrary
mapping.

Nothing is using it yet, but this will allow us to delay the open-time
checks to use time, without breaking the normal UNIX permission
semantics where permissions are determined by the opener (and the file
descriptor can then be passed to a different process, or the process can
drop capabilities).

Revert commit 62a3ddef6181 ("vfs: fix spinning prevention in prune_icache_sb").
This commit doesn't look right: since we are looking at the tail of the
list (sb->s_inode_lru.prev) if we want to skip an inode, we should put
it back at the head of the list instead of the tail, otherwise we will
keep spinning on it.
Discovered when investigating why prune_icache_sb came top in perf
reports of a swapping load.

Anatol Pomozov identified a race condition that hits module unloading
and re-loading. To quote Anatol:
"This is a race codition that exists between kset_find_obj() and
kobject_put(). kset_find_obj() might return kobject that has refcount
equal to 0 if this kobject is freeing by kobject_put() in other
thread.
Here is timeline for the crash in case if kset_find_obj() searches for
an object tht nobody holds and other thread is doing kobject_put() on
the same kobject:
THREAD A (calls kset_find_obj()) THREAD B (calls kobject_put())
splin_lock()
atomic_dec_return(kobj->kref), counter gets zero here
... starts kobject cleanup ....
spin_lock() // WAIT thread A in kobj_kset_leave()
iterate over kset->list
atomic_inc(kobj->kref) (counter becomes 1)
spin_unlock()
spin_lock() // taken
// it does not know that thread A increased counter so it
remove obj from list
spin_unlock()
vfree(module) // frees module object with containing kobj
// kobj points to freed memory area!!
kobject_put(kobj) // OOPS!!!!
The race above happens because module.c tries to use kset_find_obj()
when somebody unloads module. The module.c code was introduced in
commit 6494a93d55fa"
Anatol supplied a patch specific for module.c that worked around the
problem by simply not using kset_find_obj() at all, but rather than make
a local band-aid, this just fixes kset_find_obj() to be thread-safe
using the proper model of refusing the get a new reference if the
refcount has already dropped to zero.
See examples of this proper refcount handling not only in the kref
documentation, but in various other equivalent uses of this pattern by
grepping for atomic_inc_not_zero().
[ Side note: the module race does indicate that module loading and
unloading is not properly serialized wrt sysfs information using the
module mutex. That may require further thought, but this is the
correct fix at the kobject layer regardless. ]

The mvmdio driver uses the phylib API, so it should select the PHYLIB
symbol, otherwise, a build with mvmdio (but without mvneta) fails to
build with undefined symbols such as mdiobus_unregister, mdiobus_free,
etc.
The mvneta driver does not use the phylib API directly, so it does not
need to select PHYLIB. It already selects the mvmdio driver anyway.
Historically, this problem is due to the fact that the PHY handling
was originally part of mvneta, and was later moved to a separate
driver, without updating the Kconfig select statements
accordingly. And since there was no functional reason to use mvmdio
without mvneta, this case was not tested.

While trying to track down a tree log replay bug I noticed that fsck was always
complaining about nbytes not being right for our fsynced file. That is because
the new fsync stuff doesn't wait for ordered extents to complete, so the inodes
nbytes are not necessarily updated properly when we log it. So to fix this we
need to set nbytes to whatever it is on the inode that is on disk, so when we
replay the extents we can just add the bytes that are being added as we replay
the extent. This makes it work for the case that we have the wrong nbytes or
the case that we logged everything and nbytes is actually correct. With this
I'm no longer getting nbytes errors out of btrfsck.

When recording at 176.2KHz or 192Khz, the device adds a 32-bit length
header to the capture packets, which obviously needs to be ignored for
recording to work properly.
Userspace expected: L0 L1 L2 R0 R1 R2
...but actually got: R2 L0 L1 L2 R0 R1
Also, the last byte of the length header being interpreted as L0 of
the first sample caused spikes every 0.5ms, resulting in a loud 16KHz
tone (about the highest 'B' on a piano) being present throughout
captures.
Tested at all sample rates on an E-Mu 0404USB, and tested for
regressions on a generic USB headset.

This patch attempts to fix:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56461
The symptom is a crash and messages like this:
chrome: Corrupted page table at address 34a03000
*pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000
Bad pagetable: 000f [#1] PREEMPT SMP
Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f520 ("x86/tlb:
enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free
unused pagetables.
On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire
PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table
(aka pgd_t entries).
The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg
does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to
do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page.
(note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()).
This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct
mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush.
BTW, I disassembled and checked that:
if (tlb->fullmm == 0)
and
if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all)
generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there
to the !PAE case.

Currently set_ftrace_pid and set_graph_function files use seq_lseek
for their fops. However seq_open() is called only for FMODE_READ in
the fops->open() so that if an user tries to seek one of those file
when she open it for writing, it sees NULL seq_file and then panic.
It can be easily reproduced with following command:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
$ echo 1234 | sudo tee -a set_ftrace_pid
In this example, GNU coreutils' tee opens the file with fopen(, "a")
and then the fopen() internally calls lseek().

====================
here's another fix for the v3.9 release cycle, if not too late:
Christoph Fritz fixed the device tree property handling on little endian
systems in the sja1000 device tree driver. It was Mylene Josserand who noticed
that the mcp251x spi CAN driver cannot request its interrupt anymore, as the
driver is using a threaded interrupt handler without a primary one and without
specifying IRQF_ONESHOT (which is needed since v3.5). A patch by me fixes this
problem.
