While helping someone to submit a patch to the stable branch, I noticed
that the stable branch is not listed in the MAINTAINERS file. This was
after I went there to look for the email addresses for the stable branch
list (stable@kernel.org).
This patch adds the stable branch to the maintainers file so that people
can find where to send patches when they have a fix for the stable team.

Currently I am doing lots of refactoring work in the dvb tree. This
bugfix became necessary to fix 2.6.17 whilst I was in the middle of this
work. Unfortunately after I tested the original code for the patch, I
generated the diff against the wrong tree (I accidentally used a tree
with part of the refactoring code in it). This resulted in the reported
compile errors because that tree (a) was incomplete, and (b) used
features which are simply not in the mainline kernel yet.
Many apologies for the error and problems this has caused. :(

Fix a bug identified by Zou Nan hai <nanhai.zou@intel.com>:
If the system is in state SYSTEM_BOOTING, and need_resched() is true,
cond_resched() returns true even though it didn't reschedule. Consequently
need_resched() remains true and JBD locks up.
Fix that by teaching cond_resched() to only return true if it really did call
schedule().
cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq() have a problem too. If we're
in SYSTEM_BOOTING state and need_resched() is true, these functions will drop
the lock and will then try to call schedule(), but the SYSTEM_BOOTING state
will prevent schedule() from being called. So on return, need_resched() will
still be true, but cond_resched_lock() has to return 1 to tell the caller that
the lock was dropped. The caller will probably lock up.
Bottom line: if these functions dropped the lock, they _must_ call schedule()
to clear need_resched(). Make it so.
Also, uninline __cond_resched(). It's largeish, and slowpath.

The inode number out of an NFS file handle gets passed eventually to
ext3_get_inode_block() without any checking. If ext3_get_inode_block()
allows it to trigger an error, then bad filehandles can have unpleasant
effect - ext3_error() will usually cause a forced read-only remount, or a
panic if `errors=panic' was used.
So remove the call to ext3_error there and put a matching check in
ext3/namei.c where inode numbers are read off storage.

Fix race related problem when adding items to and svcrpc auth cache.
If we don't find the item we are lookng for, we allocate a new one,
and then grab the lock again and search to see if it has been added
while we did the alloc.
If it had been added we need to 'cache_put' the newly created item
that we are never going to use. But as it hasn't been initialised
properly, putting it can cause an oops.
So move the ->init call earlier to that it will always be fully
initilised if we have to put it.

[NET]: Update frag_list in pskb_trim
When pskb_trim has to defer to ___pksb_trim to trim the frag_list part of
the packet, the frag_list is not updated to reflect the trimming. This
will usually work fine until you hit something that uses the packet length
or tail from the frag_list.
Examples include esp_output and ip_fragment.
Another problem caused by this is that you can end up with a linear packet
with a frag_list attached.
It is possible to get away with this if we audit everything to make sure
that they always consult skb->len before going down onto frag_list. In
fact we can do the samething for the paged part as well to avoid copying
the data area of the skb. For now though, let's do the conservative fix
and update frag_list.

This patch (as753) fixes the way uhci-hcd handles a short packet when it
is the last packet of an URB. Right now the driver handles short packets
the same no matter when they occur. However, the controller stops
transferring packets when the short packet is not the last one (otherwise
it would be reading beyond the end of the device's data) and needs to be
restarted, whereas no such need occurs when the short packet is the last
one.
The result of the bug is that USB endpoint queues experience intermittent
hangs, a regression in 2.6.17 with respect to earlier kernels. The bug
was raised in Bugzilla #6752 and this patch fixed it.

According to Petr Vandrovec:
... "What is important (and checked) is address of MMCONFIG reported by MCFG
table... Unfortunately code does not bother with printing that address :-(
"Another problem is that code has hardcoded that MMCONFIG area is 256MB large.
Unfortunately for the code PCI specification allows any power of two between 2MB
and 256MB if vendor knows that such amount of busses (from 2 to 128) will be
sufficient for system. With notebook it is quite possible that not full 8 bits
are implemented for MMCONFIG bus number."
So here is a patch. Unfortunately my system still fails the test because
it doesn't reserve any part of the MMCONFIG area, but this may fix others.
Booted on x86_64, only compiled on i386. x86_64 still remaps the max area
(256MB) even though only 2MB is checked... but 2.6.16 had no check at all
so it is still better.
PCI: reduce size of x86 MMCONFIG reserved area check
1. Print the address of the MMCONFIG area when the test for that area
being reserved fails.
2. Only check if the first 2MB is reserved, as that is the minimum.

2.6.16 leaks like hell. While testing, I found massive leakage
(reproduced in openvz) in:
*filp
*size-4096
And 1 object leaks in
*size-32
*size-64
*size-128
It is the fix for the first one. filp leaks in the bowels of namei.c.
Seems, size-4096 is file table leaking in expand_fdtables.
I have no idea what are the rest and why they show only accompanying
another leaks. Some debugging structs?

2.6.16 needs this. It was merged into 2.6.18-rc1 in
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d616e09ab33aa4d013a93c9b393efd5cebf78521 .
pdflush is carefully designed to ensure that all wakeups have some
corresponding work to do - if a woken-up pdflush thread discovers that
it hasn't been given any work to do then this is considered an error.
That all broke when swsusp came along - because a timer-delivered
wakeup to a frozen pdflush thread will just get lost. This causes the
pdflush thread to get lost as well: the writeback timer is supposed to
be re-armed by pdflush in process context, but pdflush doesn't execute
the callout which does this.
Fix that up by ignoring the return value from try_to_freeze(): jsut
proceed, see if we have any work pending and only go back to sleep if
that is not the case.

Thanks to Marco Berizzi's persistence which is documented in the thread
"ipsec tunnel asymmetrical mtu", we now know that it can have highly
non-obvious symptoms.
What happens is that uninitialised uso_size fields can cause packets to
be incorrectly identified as UFO, which means that it does not get

The recent generic_file_write() deadlock fix caused
generic_file_buffered_write() to loop inifinitely when presented with a
zero-length iovec segment. Fix.
Note that this fix deliberately avoids calling ->prepare_write(),
->commit_write() etc with a zero-length write. This is because I don't trust
all filesystems to get that right.
This is a cautious approach, for 2.6.17.x. For 2.6.18 we should just go ahead
and call ->prepare_write() and ->commit_write() with the zero length and fix
any broken filesystems. So I'll make that change once this code is stabilised
and backported into 2.6.17.x.
The reason for preferring to call ->prepare_write() and ->commit_write() with
the zero-length segment: a zero-length segment _should_ be sufficiently
uncommon that this is the correct way of handling it. We don't want to
optimise for poorly-written userspace at the expense of well-written
userspace.

generic_file_buffered_write() prefaults in user pages in order to avoid
deadlock on copying from the same page as write goes to.
However, it looks like there is a problem when write is vectored:
fault_in_pages_readable brings in current segment or its part (maxlen).
OTOH, filemap_copy_from_user_iovec is called to copy number of bytes
(bytes) which may exceed current segment, so filemap_copy_from_user_iovec
switches to the next segment which is not brought in yet. Pagefault is
generated. That causes the deadlock if pagefault is for the same page
write goes to: page being written is locked and not uptodate, pagefault
will deadlock trying to lock locked page.

This patch limits the amount of outstanding 'write' data that can be
queued up for the ftdi_sio driver, to prevent userspace DoS attacks (or
simple accidents) that use up all the system memory by writing lots of
data to the serial port.
The original patch was by Guillaume Autran, who in turn based it on the
same mechanism implemented in the 'visor' driver. I (Ian Abbott)
re-targeted the patch to the latest sources, fixed a couple of errors,
renamed his new structure members, and updated the implementations of
the 'write_room' and 'chars_in_buffer' methods to take account of the
number of outstanding 'write' bytes. It seems to work fine, though at
low baud rates it is still possible to queue up an amount of data that
takes an age to shift (a job for another day!).

Several issues noticed/fixed:
- We cannot reliably block in link_pipe() while holding both input and output
mutexes. So do preparatory checks before locking down both mutexes and doing
the link.
- The ipipe->nrbufs vs i check was bad, because we could have dropped the
ipipe lock in-between. This causes us to potentially look at unknown
buffers if we were racing with someone else reading this pipe.

[CPUFREQ] Make powernow-k7 work on SMP kernels.
Even though powernow-k7 doesn't work in SMP environments,
it can work on an SMP configured kernel if there's only
one CPU present, however recalibrate_cpu_khz was returning
-EINVAL on such kernels, so we failed to init the cpufreq driver.
