4c10021008 nfs: Fix wrong slab cache in nfs_commit_mempool
The slab cache in nfs_commit_mempool is wrong, and I think it is just a slip.
I tested it on a x86-32 machine, the size of nfs_write_header is 544, and
the size of nfs_commit_data is 408, so it works fine. It is also true that
sizeof(struct nfs_write_header) > sizeof(struct nfs_commit_data) on other
platforms in my opinoin. Just fix it.

35f95d228e Merge tag 'for-linus-20121123' of git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6
Pull MTD fixes from David Woodhouse:
 "The most important part of this is that it fixes a regression in
  Samsung NAND chip detection, introduced by some rework which went into
  3.7.  The initial fix wasn't quite complete, so it's in two parts.  In
  fact the first part is committed twice (Artem committed his own copy
  of the same patch) and I've merged Artem's tree into mine which
  already had that fix.

  I'd have recommitted that to make it somewhat cleaner, but figured by
  this point in the release cycle it was better to merge *exactly* the
  commits which have been in linux-next.

  If I'd recommitted, I'd also omit the sparse warning fix.  But it's
  there, and it's harmless — just marking one function as 'static' in
  onenand code.

  This also includes a couple more fixes for stable: an AB-BA deadlock
  in JFFS2, and an invalid range check in slram."

25389bb207 jbd: Fix lock ordering bug in journal_unmap_buffer()
Commit 09e05d48 introduced a wait for transaction commit into
journal_unmap_buffer() in the case we are truncating a buffer undergoing commit
in the page stradding i_size on a filesystem with blocksize < pagesize. Sadly
we forgot to drop buffer lock before waiting for transaction commit and thus
deadlock is possible when kjournald wants to lock the buffer.

Fix the problem by dropping the buffer lock before waiting for transaction
commit. Since we are still holding page lock (and that is OK), buffer cannot
disappear under us.

1e2d9d44f3 GFS2: Set gl_object during inode create
This patch fixes a cluster coherency problem that occurs when one
node creates a file, does several writes, then a different node
tries to write to the same file. When the inode's glock is demoted,
the inode wasn't synced to the media properly because the gl_object
wasn't set. Later, the flush daemon noticed the uncommitted data
and tried to flush it, only to discover the glock was no longer locked
properly in exclusive mode. That caused an assert withdraw.

6bdb5f213c NFS: Add sequence_priviliged_ops for nfs4_proc_sequence()
If I mount an NFS v4.1 server to a single client multiple times and then
run xfstests over each mountpoint I usually get the client into a state
where recovery deadlocks.  The server informs the client of a
cb_path_down sequence error, the client then does a
bind_connection_to_session and checks the status of the lease.

I found that bind_connection_to_session sets the NFS4_SESSION_DRAINING
flag on the client, but this flag is never unset before
nfs4_check_lease() reaches nfs4_proc_sequence().  This causes the client
to deadlock, halting all NFS activity to the server.  nfs4_proc_sequence()
is only called by the state manager, so I can change it to run in privileged
mode to bypass the NFS4_SESSION_DRAINING check and avoid the deadlock.

98f842e675 proc: Usable inode numbers for the namespace file descriptors.
Assign a unique proc inode to each namespace, and use that
inode number to ensure we only allocate at most one proc
inode for every namespace in proc.

A single proc inode per namespace allows userspace to test
to see if two processes are in the same namespace.

This has been a long requested feature and only blocked because
a naive implementation would put the id in a global space and
would ultimately require having a namespace for the names of
namespaces, making migration and certain virtualization tricks
impossible.

We still don't have per superblock inode numbers for proc, which
appears necessary for application unaware checkpoint/restart and
migrations (if the application is using namespace file descriptors)
but that is now allowd by the design if it becomes important.

I have preallocated the ipc and uts initial proc inode numbers so
their structures can be statically initialized.

0e446be448 xfs: add CRC checks to the log
Implement CRCs for the log buffers.  We re-use a field in
struct xlog_rec_header that was used for a weak checksum of the
log buffer payload in debug builds before.

The new checksumming uses the crc32c checksum we will use elsewhere
in XFS, and also protects the record header and addition cycle data.

Due to this there are some interesting changes in xlog_sync, as we
need to do the cycle wrapping for the split buffer case much earlier,
as we would touch the buffer after generating the checksum otherwise.

The CRC calculation is always enabled, even for non-CRC filesystems,
as adding this CRC does not change the log format. On non-CRC
filesystems, only issue an alert if a CRC mismatch is found and
allow recovery to continue - this will act as an indicator that
log recovery problems are a result of log corruption. On CRC enabled
filesystems, however, log recovery will fail.

Note that existing debug kernels will write a simple checksum value
to the log, so the first time this is run on a filesystem taht was
last used on a debug kernel it will through CRC mismatch warning
errors. These can be ignored.

Initially based on a patch from Dave Chinner, then modified
significantly by Christoph Hellwig.  Modified again by Dave Chinner
to get to this version.

8823c079ba vfs: Add setns support for the mount namespace
setns support for the mount namespace is a little tricky as an
arbitrary decision must be made about what to set fs->root and
fs->pwd to, as there is no expectation of a relationship between
the two mount namespaces.  Therefore I arbitrarily find the root
mount point, and follow every mount on top of it to find the top
of the mount stack.  Then I set fs->root and fs->pwd to that
location.  The topmost root of the mount stack seems like a
reasonable place to be.

Bind mount support for the mount namespace inodes has the
possibility of creating circular dependencies between mount
namespaces.  Circular dependencies can result in loops that
prevent mount namespaces from every being freed.  I avoid
creating those circular dependencies by adding a sequence number
to the mount namespace and require all bind mounts be of a
younger mount namespace into an older mount namespace.

Add a helper function proc_ns_inode so it is possible to
detect when we are attempting to bind mound a namespace inode.

0a01f2cc39 pidns: Make the pidns proc mount/umount logic obvious.
Track the number of pids in the proc hash table.  When the number of
pids goes to 0 schedule work to unmount the kernel mount of proc.

Move the mount of proc into alloc_pid when we allocate the pid for
init.

Remove the surprising calls of pid_ns_release proc in fork and
proc_flush_task.  Those code paths really shouldn't know about proc
namespace implementation details and people have demonstrated several
times that finding and understanding those code paths is difficult and
non-obvious.

Because of the call path detach pid is alwasy called with the
rtnl_lock held free_pid is not allowed to sleep, so the work to
unmounting proc is moved to a work queue.  This has the side benefit
of not blocking the entire world waiting for the unnecessary
rcu_barrier in deactivate_locked_super.

In the process of making the code clear and obvious this fixes a bug
reported by Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> where we would leak a
mount of proc during clone(CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWNET) if copy_pid_ns
succeeded and copy_net_ns failed.

to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace.

In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the

Now that we have s_fs_info pointing to our pid namespace
the original reason for the proc root inode having a struct
pid is gone.

Caching a pid in the root inode has led to some complicated
code.  Now that we don't need the struct pid, just remove it.

e656d8a6f7 procfs: Use the proc generic infrastructure for proc/self.
I had visions at one point of splitting proc into two filesystems.  If
that had happened proc/self being the the part of proc that actually deals
with pids would have been a nice cleanup.  As it is proc/self requires
a lot of unnecessary infrastructure for a single file.

The only user visible change is that a mounted /proc for a pid namespace
that is dead now shows a broken proc symlink, instead of being completely
invisible.  I don't think anyone will notice or care.

73f7ef4359 sysctl: Pass useful parameters to sysctl permissions
- Current is implicitly avaiable so passing current->nsproxy isn't useful.
- The ctl_table_header is needed to find how the sysctl table is connected
  to the rest of sysctl.
- ctl_table_root is avaiable in the ctl_table_header so no need to it.

With these changes it becomes possible to write a version of
net_sysctl_permission that takes into account the network namespace of
the sysctl table, an important feature in extending the user namespace.

3587b1b097 fanotify: fix FAN_Q_OVERFLOW case of fanotify_read()
If the FAN_Q_OVERFLOW bit set in event->mask, the fanotify event
metadata will not contain a valid file descriptor, but
copy_event_to_user() didn't check for that, and unconditionally does a
fd_install() on the file descriptor.

Which in turn will cause a BUG_ON() in __fd_install().

Introduced by commit 352e3b2492 ("fanotify: sanitize failure exits in
copy_event_to_user()")

Mea culpa - missed that path ;-/

2cbba75a56 jffs2: hold erase_completion_lock on exit
Users of jffs2_do_reserve_space() expect they still held
erase_completion_lock after call to it. But there is a path
where jffs2_do_reserve_space() leaves erase_completion_lock unlocked.
The patch fixes it.
