2a5b82751f ipv6: NULL pointer dereferrence in tcp_v6_send_ack
The following actions are possible:
tcp_v6_rcv
  skb->dev = NULL;
  tcp_v6_do_rcv
    tcp_v6_hnd_req
      tcp_check_req
        req->rsk_ops->send_ack == tcp_v6_send_ack

So, skb->dev can be NULL in tcp_v6_send_ack. We must obtain namespace
from dst entry.

Thanks to Vitaliy Gusev <vgusev@openvz.org> for initial problem finding
in IPv4 code.

4dd7972d12 tcp: Fix NULL dereference in tcp_4_send_ack()
Fix NULL dereference in tcp_4_send_ack().

As skb->dev is reset to NULL in tcp_v4_rcv() thus OOPS occurs:

14be9947ef ath5k: write beacon control register twice when resetting tsf
According to the newly-released Atheros HAL code, asserting the
TSF reset bit will toggle a hardware internal state, resulting in a
spurious reset on the next chip reset.  Whenever we force a TSF bit,
write the bit twice to clear the internal signal.

b0dee5784d Fix modpost failure when rx handlers are not inlined.
When CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=n and CONFIG_MAC80211_NOINLINE=y,
gcc doesn't optimize out a call to ieee80211_rx_h_mesh_fwding,
even if the previous comparison is always false in this case.
This leads to the following errors during modpost:

ERROR: "mpp_path_lookup" [net/mac80211/mac80211.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "mpp_path_add" [net/mac80211/mac80211.ko] undefined!

Fix by removing the possibility of uninlining
ieee80211_rx_h_mesh_fwding rx handler.

4c99f3e4cf rt2x00: Fix build errors due to modularized rfkill or leds and built-in rt2x00.
Fix by disabling rt2x00 rfkill support when rt2x00 is built-in and rfkill has been modularized, and
a similar scheme for the relationship between leds_class and rt2x00..
Also, give a warning to the end-user when rfkill-/leds-support is disabled this way, so that the
end-user has at least some clues on what is going on.

Proper fixing required some general updates of the Kconfig-structure for the rt2x00 driver, whereby
internal configuration symbols had to be moved to after the user-visible configuration symbols.

All of the above have been fixed. One question, however, remains: In struct
bootrec, the array "data" is treated in many places as native CPU order, but
it may be little-endian everywhere. As far as I can tell, this driver has only
been used with little-endian hardware.

ba0166708e sctp: Fix kernel panic while process protocol violation parameter
Since call to function sctp_sf_abort_violation() need paramter 'arg' with
'struct sctp_chunk' type, it will read the chunk type and chunk length from
the chunk_hdr member of chunk. But call to sctp_sf_violation_paramlen()
always with 'struct sctp_paramhdr' type's parameter, it will be passed to
sctp_sf_abort_violation(). This may cause kernel panic.

   sctp_sf_violation_paramlen()
     |-- sctp_sf_abort_violation()
        |-- sctp_make_abort_violation()

This patch fixed this problem. This patch also fix two place which called

31a78f23ba mm owner: fix race between swapoff and exit
There's a race between mm->owner assignment and swapoff, more easily
seen when task slab poisoning is turned on.  The condition occurs when
try_to_unuse() runs in parallel with an exiting task.  A similar race
can occur with callers of get_task_mm(), such as /proc/<pid>/<mmstats>
or ptrace or page migration.

CPU0                                    CPU1
                                        try_to_unuse
                                        looks at mm = task0->mm
                                        increments mm->mm_users
task 0 exits
mm->owner needs to be updated, but no
new owner is found (mm_users > 1, but
no other task has task->mm = task0->mm)
mm_update_next_owner() leaves
                                        mmput(mm) decrements mm->mm_users
task0 freed
                                        dereferencing mm->owner fails

The fix is to notify the subsystem via mm_owner_changed callback(),
if no new owner is found, by specifying the new task as NULL.

Jiri Slaby:
mm->owner was set to NULL prior to calling cgroup_mm_owner_callbacks(), but
must be set after that, so as not to pass NULL as old owner causing oops.

Daisuke Nishimura:
mm_update_next_owner() may set mm->owner to NULL, but mem_cgroup_from_task()
and its callers need to take account of this situation to avoid oops.

Hugh Dickins:
Lockdep warning and hang below exec_mmap() when testing these patches.
exit_mm() up_reads mmap_sem before calling mm_update_next_owner(),
so exec_mmap() now needs to do the same.  And with that repositioning,
there's now no point in mm_need_new_owner() allowing for NULL mm.

d0185c0882 Fix NULL pointer dereference in proc_sys_compare
The VFS interface for the 'd_compare()' is a bit special (read: 'odd'),
because it really just essentially replaces a memcmp().  The filesystem
is supposed to just compare the two names with whatever case-independent
or other function.

And when I say 'is supposed to', I obviously mean that 'procfs does odd
things, and actually looks at the dentry that we don't even pass down,
rather than just the name'.  Which results in problems, because we
actually call d_compare before we have even verified that the dentry is
still hashed at all.

And that causes a problm since the inode that procfs looks at may have
been free'd and the d_inode pointer is NULL.  procfs just assumes that
all dentries are positive, since procfs itself never generates a
negative one.  But memory pressure will still result in the dentry
getting torn down, and as it is removed by RCU, it still remains visible
on some lists - and to d_compare.

If the filesystem just did a name comparison, we wouldn't care.  And we
could just fix procfs to know about negative dentries too.  But rather
than have the low-level filesystems know about internal VFS details,
just move the check for a unhashed dentry up a bit, so that we will only
call d_compare on dentries that are still active.

The actual oops this caused didn't look like a NULL pointer dereference
because procfs did a 'container_of(inode, struct proc_inode, vfs_inode)'
to get at its internal proc_inode information from the inode pointer,
and accessed a field below the inode. So the oops would look something
like

	BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffffffffff0
	IP: [<ffffffff802bc6c6>] proc_sys_compare+0x36/0x50

and was seen on both x86-64 (Alexey Dobriyan and Hugh Dickins) and
ppc64 (Hugh Dickins).

ec2cd95f34 ALSA: make the CS4270 driver a new-style I2C driver
Update the CS4270 ALSA device driver to use the new-style I2C interface.
Starting with the 2.6.27 PowerPC kernel, I2C devices that have entries in the
device trees can no longer be probed by old-style I2C drivers.  The device
tree for Freescale MPC8610 HPCD has included an entry for the CS4270 since
2.6.25, but that entry was previously ignored by the PowerPC I2C subsystem.
Since that's no longer the case, the best solution is to update the CS4270
driver to a new-style interface, rather than try to revert the behavior of
new PowerPC I2C subsystem.

In the load_cmd() there is a compound loop where the first 4 sg's are

Well the second 7-group and on is a bug because sg pointer does not advance.

Commit 2fd673ecf0 which tried to remove
hardreset for generic accidentally removed it for all flavors as all
others were inheriting from nv_generic_ops.  This patch reinstates
nv_hardreset() and puts it into nv_common_ops which all flavors
inherit from.  nv_generic_ops now inherits from nv_common_ops and
overrides .hardreset to ATA_OP_NULL.

While at it, explain why nv_hardreset and ATA_OP_NULL override are
necessary.
