commit d76b1590e06a63a3d8697168cd0aabf1c4b3cb3a upstream.

kmem_cache_destroy() should call rcu_barrier() *after* kmem_cache_close() and
*before* sysfs_slab_remove() or risk rcu_free_slab() being called after
kmem_cache is deleted (kfreed).

rmmod nf_conntrack can crash the machine because it has to kmem_cache_destroy()
a SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU enabled cache.

<title>JFFS2: add missing verify buffer allocation/deallocation</title>

commit bc8cec0dff072f1a45ce7f6b2c5234bb3411ac51 upstream.

The function jffs2_nor_wbuf_flash_setup() doesn't allocate the verify buffer
if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WBUF_VERIFY is defined, so causing a kernel panic when
that macro is enabled and the verify function is called. Similarly the
jffs2_nor_wbuf_flash_cleanup() must free the buffer if
CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WBUF_VERIFY is enabled.
The following patch fixes the problem.
The following patch applies to 2.6.30 kernel.

<title>E100: fix interaction with swiotlb on X86.</title>

[ Upstream commit 6ff9c2e7fa8ca63a575792534b63c5092099c286 ]

E100 places it's RX packet descriptors inside skb-&gt;data and uses them
with bidirectional streaming DMA mapping. Data in descriptors is
accessed simultaneously by the chip (writing status and size when
a packet is received) and CPU (reading to check if the packet was
received). This isn't a valid usage of PCI DMA API, which requires use
of the coherent (consistent) memory for such purpose. Unfortunately e100
chips working in "simplified" RX mode have to store received data
directly after the descriptor. Fixing the driver to conform to the API
would require using unsupported "flexible" RX mode or receiving data
into a coherent memory and using CPU to copy it to network buffers.

This patch, while not yet making the driver conform to the PCI DMA API,
allows it to work correctly on X86 with swiotlb (while not breaking
other architectures).

Somehow a previous patch did not get committed correctly.

This fixes the build.

Thanks to Jayson King, Michael Tokarev, Joel Becker, and Chuck Ebbert
for pointing out the problem, and the solution.

This fixes a problem that was reported as Red Hat Bugzilla entry number
485339, in which rpciod starts looping on the TCP connection code,
rendering the NFS client unusable for 1/2 minute or so.

It is basically a backport of commit
f75e6745aa3084124ae1434fd7629853bdaf6798 (SUNRPC: Fix the problem of
EADDRNOTAVAIL syslog floods on reconnect)
