b60b08b02c mtd: nand: support alternate BB marker locations on MLC
This is a slightly modified version of a patch submitted last year by
Reuben Dowle <reuben.dowle@navico.com>.  His original comments follow:

This patch adds support for some MLC NAND flashes that place the BB
marker in the LAST page of the bad block rather than the FIRST page used
for SLC NAND and other types of MLC nand.

Lifted from Samsung datasheet for K9LG8G08U0A (1Gbyte MLC NAND):
"
Identifying Initial Invalid Block(s)
All device locations are erased(FFh) except locations where the initial
invalid block(s) information is written prior to shipping. The initial
invalid block(s) status is defined by the 1st byte in the spare area.
Samsung makes sure that the last page of every initial invalid block has
non-FFh data at the column address of 2,048.
...
"

As far as I can tell, this is the same for all Samsung MLC nand, and in
fact the samsung bsp for the processor used in our project (s3c6410)
actually contained a hack similar to this patch but less portable to
enable use of their NAND parts. I discovered this problem when trying to
use a Micron NAND which does not used this layout - I wish samsung would
put their stuff in main-line to avoid this type of problem.

Currently this patch causes all MLC nand with manufacturer codes from
Samsung and ST(Numonyx) to use this alternative location, since these
are the manufactures that I know of that use this layout.

426c457a32 mtd: nand: extend NAND flash detection to new MLC chips
Some of the newer MLC devices have a 6-byte ID sequence in which
several field definitions differ from older chips in a manner that is
not backward compatible.  For instance:

Samsung K9GAG08U0M (5-byte sequence): ec d5 14 b6 74
4th byte, bits 1:0 encode the page size: 0=1KiB, 1=2KiB, 2=4KiB, 3=8KiB
4th byte, bits 5:4 encode the block size: 0=64KiB, 1=128KiB, ...
4th byte, bit 6 encodes the OOB size: 0=8B/512B, 1=16B/512B

Samsung K9GAG08U0D (6-byte sequence): ec d5 94 29 34 41
4th byte, bits 1:0 encode the page size: 0=2KiB, 1=4KiB, 3=8KiB, 4=rsvd
4th byte, bits 7;5:4 encode the block size: 0=128KiB, 1=256KiB, ...
4th byte, bits 6;3:2 encode the OOB size: 1=128B/page, 2=218B/page

This patch uses the new 6-byte scheme if the following conditions are
all true:

1) The ID code wraps around after exactly 6 bytes

2) Manufacturer is Samsung

3) 6th byte is zero

The patch also extends the maximum OOB size from 128B to 256B.

c4e773764c mtd: fix a huge latency problem in the MTD CFI and LPDDR flash drivers.
The use of a memcpy() during a spinlock operation will cause very long
thread context switch delays if the flash chip bandwidth is low and the
data to be copied large, because a spinlock will disable preemption.

For example: A flash with 6,5 MB/s bandwidth will cause under ubifs,
which request sometimes 128 KiB (the flash erase size), a preemption delay of
20 milliseconds. High priority threads will not be served during this
time, regardless whether this threads access the flash or not. This behavior
breaks real time.

The patch changes all the use of spin_lock operations for xxxx->mutex
into mutex operations, which is exact what the name says and means.

I have checked the code of the drivers and there is no use of atomic
pathes like interrupt or timers. The mtdoops facility will also not be used
by this drivers. So it is dave to replace the spin_lock against mutex.

There is no performance regression since the mutex is normally not
acquired.

ee84b8243b rcu: create rcu_my_thread_group_empty() wrapper
Some RCU-lockdep splat repairs need to know whether they are running
in a single-threaded process.  Unfortunately, the thread_group_empty()
primitive is defined in sched.h, and can induce #include hell.  This
commit therefore introduces a rcu_my_thread_group_empty() wrapper that
is defined in rcupdate.c, thus avoiding the need to include sched.h
everywhere.

23be7468e8 hugetlb: fix infinite loop in get_futex_key() when backed by huge pages
If a futex key happens to be located within a huge page mapped
MAP_PRIVATE, get_futex_key() can go into an infinite loop waiting for a
page->mapping that will never exist.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552257 for more details
about the problem.

This patch makes page->mapping a poisoned value that includes
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON mapped MAP_PRIVATE.  This is enough for futex to
continue but because of PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, the poisoned value is not
dereferenced or used by futex.  No other part of the VM should be
dereferencing the page->mapping of a hugetlbfs page as its page cache is
not on the LRU.

This patch fixes the problem with the test case described in the bugzilla.

bc293d62b2 rcu: Make RCU lockdep check the lockdep_recursion variable
The lockdep facility temporarily disables lockdep checking by
incrementing the current->lockdep_recursion variable.  Such
disabling happens in NMIs and in other situations where lockdep
might expect to recurse on itself.

This patch therefore checks current->lockdep_recursion, disabling RCU
lockdep splats when this variable is non-zero.  In addition, this patch
removes the "likely()", as suggested by Lai Jiangshan.

19b3eecc21 firewire: cdev: change license of exported header files to MIT license
Among else, this allows projects like libdc1394 to carry copies of the
ABI related header files without them or distributors having to worry
about effects on the project's overall license terms.  Switch to MIT
license as suggested by Kristian.  Also update the year in the
copyright statement according to source history.

c08c68dd76 rcu: Better explain the condition parameter of rcu_dereference_check()
Better explain the condition parameter of
rcu_dereference_check() that describes the conditions under
which the dereference is permitted to take place (and
incorporate Yong Zhang's suggestion).  This condition is only
checked under lockdep proving.

b62730baea rcu: Add rcu_access_pointer and rcu_dereference_protected
This patch adds variants of rcu_dereference() that handle
situations where the RCU-protected data structure cannot change,
perhaps due to our holding the update-side lock, or where the
RCU-protected pointer is only to be fetched, not dereferenced.
These are needed due to some performance concerns with using
rcu_dereference() where it is not required, aside from the need
for lockdep/sparse checking.

The new rcu_access_pointer() primitive is for the case where the
pointer is be fetch and not dereferenced.  This primitive may be
used without protection, RCU or otherwise, due to the fact that
it uses ACCESS_ONCE().

The new rcu_dereference_protected() primitive is for the case
where updates are prevented, for example, due to holding the
update-side lock.  This primitive does neither ACCESS_ONCE() nor
smp_read_barrier_depends(), so can only be used when updates are
somehow prevented.

0df5dd4aae NFSv4: fix delegated locking
Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a
delegation since commit 8e469ebd6d (NFSv4:
Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it).

According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file
(since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using
delegated opens.

The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is
governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but
gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the
NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.

ce82653d6c radix_tree_tag_get() is not as safe as the docs make out [ver #2]
radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set()
or radix_tree_tag_clear().  The problem is that the double tag_get() in
radix_tree_tag_get():

		if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset))
			saw_unset_tag = 1;
		if (height == 1) {
			int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset);

may see the value change due to the action of set/clear.  RCU is no protection
against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced
according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly.

The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that
radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying
the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any
functions reading the tree".

The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the
tag doesn't vary over time:

			BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag);

This has been seen happening in FS-Cache:

	https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html

To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various
comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held,
and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon
unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from
running concurrently with it.

45c4d015a9 libata: Fix accesses at LBA28 boundary (old bug, but nasty) (v2)
Most drives from Seagate, Hitachi, and possibly other brands,
do not allow LBA28 access to sector number 0x0fffffff (2^28 - 1).
So instead use LBA48 for such accesses.

This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has
taken care to align partitions to 4KB boundaries. On misaligned systems,
it is less likely to be encountered, since a 4KB read would end at
0x10000000 rather than at 0x0fffffff.
