Rusty Russell c5f841f178 virtio: more neatening of virtio_ring macros.
Impact: cleanup

Roel Kluin drew attention to these macros with his patch: here I
neaten them a little further:
1) Add a comment on what START_USE and END_USE are checking,
2) Brackets around _vq in BAD_RING,
3) Neaten formatting for START_USE so it's less than 80 cols.

Roel Kluin 3a35ce7dce virtio: fix BAD_RING, START_US and END_USE macros
Impact: cleanup

fix BAD_RING, START_US and END_USE macros

When these macros aren't called with a variable named vq as first
argument, this would result in a build failure.

Hugh Dickins 7c2c7d9930 fix setuid sometimes wouldn't
check_unsafe_exec() also notes whether the fs_struct is being
shared by more threads than will get killed by the exec, and if so
sets LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE to make bprm_set_creds() careful about euid.
But /proc/<pid>/cwd and /proc/<pid>/root lookups make transient
use of get_fs_struct(), which also raises that sharing count.

This might occasionally cause a setuid program not to change euid,
in the same way as happened with files->count (check_unsafe_exec
also looks at sighand->count, but /proc doesn't raise that one).

We'd prefer exec not to unshare fs_struct: so fix this in procfs,
replacing get_fs_struct() by get_fs_path(), which does path_get
while still holding task_lock, instead of raising fs->count.

Hugh Dickins e426b64c41 fix setuid sometimes doesn't
Joe Malicki reports that setuid sometimes doesn't: very rarely,
a setuid root program does not get root euid; and, by the way,
they have a health check running lsof every few minutes.

Right, check_unsafe_exec() notes whether the files_struct is being
shared by more threads than will get killed by the exec, and if so
sets LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE to make bprm_set_creds() careful about euid.
But /proc/<pid>/fd and /proc/<pid>/fdinfo lookups make transient
use of get_files_struct(), which also raises that sharing count.

There's a rather simple fix for this: exec's check on files->count
has been redundant ever since 2.6.1 made it unshare_files() (except
while compat_do_execve() omitted to do so) - just remove that check.

[Note to -stable: this patch will not apply before 2.6.29: earlier
releases should just remove the files->count line from unsafe_exec().]

Hugh Dickins 53e9309e01 compat_do_execve should unshare_files
2.6.26's commit fd8328be87
"sanitize handling of shared descriptor tables in failing execve()"
moved the unshare_files() from flush_old_exec() and several binfmts
to the head of do_execve(); but forgot to make the same change to
compat_do_execve(), leaving a CLONE_FILES files_struct shared across
exec from a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel.

It's arguable whether the files_struct really ought to be unshared
across exec; but 2.6.1 made that so to stop the loading binary's fd
leaking into other threads, and a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel
ought to behave in the same way as 32 on 32 and 64 on 64.

H. Peter Anvin 4029792757 bzip2/lzma: don't ask for compression mode for the default initramfs
Impact: Kconfig noise reduction, documentation

The default initramfs is so small that it makes no sense to worry
about the additional memory taken by not double-compressing it.
Therefore, don't bug the user with it.

Also, improve the description of the option, which was downright
incorrect.

Jean Delvare 764c16918f i2c: Document the different ways to instantiate i2c devices
On popular demand, here comes some documentation about how to
instantiate i2c devices in the new (standard) i2c device driver
binding model.

I have also clarified how the class bitfield lets driver authors
control which buses are probed in the auto-detect case, and warned
more loudly against the abuse of this method.

Mikael Pettersson f0bba9f934 [ARM] 5435/1: fix compile warning in sanity_check_meminfo()
Compiling recent 2.6.29-rc kernels for ARM gives me the following warning:

arch/arm/mm/mmu.c: In function 'sanity_check_meminfo':
arch/arm/mm/mmu.c:697: warning: comparison between pointer and integer

This is because commit 3fd9825c42
"[ARM] 5402/1: fix a case of wrap-around in sanity_check_meminfo()"
in 2.6.29-rc5-git4 added a comparison of a pointer with PAGE_OFFSET,
which is an integer.

Fixed by casting PAGE_OFFSET to void *.

Li, Shaohua df52092f3c fastboot: remove duplicate unpack_to_rootfs()
we check if initrd is initramfs first and then do the real unpack. The check
isn't required, we can directly do unpack.  If the initrd isn't an
initramfs, we can remove the garbage.  In my laptop, this saves 0.1s boot
time.

This patch penalizes non-initramfs initrd case, but nowadays, initramfs is
the most widely used method for initrds.

Arjan van de Ven 0c406263f0 ide/net: flip the order of SATA and network init
this patch flips the order in which sata and network drivers are initialized.

SATA probing takes quite a bit of time, and with the asynchronous infrastructure
other drivers that run after it can execute in parallel. Network drivers do tend
to take some real time talking to the hardware, so running these later is
a good thing (the sata probe then runs concurrent)

This saves about 15% of my kernels boot time.

Both Dave and Jeff acked this patch and suggested it should go via the async
tree.

Now that everyone has been able to test the async code (and it's being used

The various fixes needed have gone into 2.6.29 already.
