tiny-shmem calls do_truncate in shmem_file_setup. do_truncate takes
i_mutex, and shmem_file_setup is called with mmap_sem held. However
i_mutex nests outside mmap_sem.
Copy the code in shmem.c to avoid this problem.

The reasons for disabling paccept() are as follows:
* The API is more complex than needed. There is AFAICS no demonstrated
use case that the sigset argument of this syscall serves that couldn't
equally be served by the use of pselect/ppoll/epoll_pwait + traditional
accept(). Roland seems to concur with this opinion
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723953/focus=732255). I
have (more than once) asked Ulrich to explain otherwise
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723952/focus=731018), but he
does not respond, so one is left to assume that he doesn't know of such
a case.
* The use of a sigset argument is not consistent with other I/O APIs
that can block on a single file descriptor (e.g., read(), recv(),
connect()).
* The behavior of paccept() when interrupted by a signal is IMO strange:
the kernel restarts the system call if SA_RESTART was set for the
handler. I think that it should not do this -- that it should behave
consistently with paccept()/ppoll()/epoll_pwait(), which never restart,
regardless of SA_RESTART. The reasoning here is that the very purpose
of paccept() is to wait for a connection or a signal, and that
restarting in the latter case is probably never useful. (Note: Roland
disagrees on this point, believing that rather paccept() should be
consistent with accept() in its behavior wrt EINTR
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723953/focus=732255).)
I believe that instead, a simpler API, consistent with Ulrich's other
recent additions, is preferable:
accept4(int fd, struct sockaddr *sa, socklen_t *salen, ind flags);
(This simpler API was originally proposed by Ulrich:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/92072)
If this simpler API is added, then if we later decide that the sigset
argument really is required, then a suitable bit in 'flags' could be added
to indicate the presence of the sigset argument.
At this point, I am hoping we either will get a counter-argument from
Ulrich about why we really do need paccept()'s sigset argument, or that he
will resubmit the original accept4() patch.

A segmentation fault can occur in kimage_add_entry in kexec.c when loading
a kernel image into memory. The fault occurs because a page is requested
by calling kimage_alloc_page with gfp_mask GFP_KERNEL and the function may
actually return a page with gfp_mask GFP_HIGHUSER. The high mem page is
returned because it was swapped with the kernel page due to the kernel
page being a page that will shortly be copied to.
This patch ensures that kimage_alloc_page returns a page that was created
with the correct gfp flags.
I have verified the change and fixed the whitespace damage of the original
patch. Jonathan did a great job of tracking this down after he hit the
problem. -- Eric

PCMCIA abuses dev->private_data in the probe methods. Unfortunately it
continues to abuse it after calling drv->probe() which leads to crashes and
other nasties (such as bogus probes of multifunction devices) giving errors like
pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.1
kernel: 0.1: GetNextTuple: No more items
Extract the passed data before calling the driver probe function that way
we don't blow up when the driver reuses dev->private_data as its right.
As its close to the final release just move the hack so it works out,
hopefully someone will be sufficiently embarrassed to produce a nice rework
for 2.6.28.

Currently simple_tx_hash is hashing inside of udp fragments. As a result
packets are getting getting sent to all queues when they shouldn't be.
This causes a serious performance regression which can be seen by sending
UDP frames larger than mtu on multiqueue devices. This change will make
it so that fragments are hashed only as IP datagrams w/o any protocol
information.

On AVR32, all parameters beyond the 5th are passed on the stack. System
calls don't use the stack -- they borrow a callee-saved register
instead. This means that syscalls that take 6 parameters must be called
through a stub that pushes the last parameter on the stack.
This patch adds a stub for sync_file_range syscall on AVR32
architecture. Tested with uClibc snapshot.
