The big kernel lock has been removed from all these files at some point,
leaving only the #include.

The stradis driver is on its way out, but it should still be marked
correctly as depending on the big kernel lock. It could easily be
changed to not require it if someone decides to revive the driver and
port it to v4l2 in the process.

Making /proc/kallsyms readable only for root by default makes it
slightly harder for attackers to write generic kernel exploits by
removing one source of knowledge where things are in the kernel.
This is the second submit, discussion happened on this on first submit
and mostly concerned that this is just one hole of the sieve ... but
one of the bigger ones.
Changing the permissions of at least System.map and vmlinux is also
required to fix the same set, but a packaging issue.
Target of this starter patch and follow ups is removing any kind of
kernel space address information leak from the kernel.
[ Side note: the default of root-only reading is the "safe" value, and
it's easy enough to then override at any time after boot. The /proc
filesystem allows root to change the permissions with a regular
chmod, so you can "revert" this at run-time by simply doing
chmod og+r /proc/kallsyms
as root if you really want regular users to see the kernel symbols.
It does help some tools like "perf" figure them out without any
setup, so it may well make sense in some situations. - Linus ]

Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.
The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation. No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch. All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.
Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)
Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done.
Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change. Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

I just loaded 2.6.37-rc2 on my machines, and I noticed that X no longer starts.
Running an strace of the X server shows that it's doing this:
open("/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:07:00.0/resource0", O_RDWR) = 10
mmap(NULL, 16777216, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 10, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
This code seems to be asking for a shared read/write mapping of 16MB worth of
BAR0 starting at file offset 0, and letting the kernel assign a starting
address. Unfortunately, this -EINVAL causes X not to start. Looking into
dmesg, there's a complaint like so:
process "Xorg" tried to map 0x01000000 bytes at page 0x00000000 on 0000:07:00.0 BAR 0 (start 0x 96000000, size 0x 1000000)
...with the following code in pci_mmap_fits:
pci_start = (mmap_api == PCI_MMAP_SYSFS) ?
pci_resource_start(pdev, resno) >> PAGE_SHIFT : 0;
if (start >= pci_start && start < pci_start + size &&
start + nr <= pci_start + size)
It looks like the logic here is set up such that when the mmap call comes via
sysfs, the check in pci_mmap_fits wants vma->vm_pgoff to be between the
resource's start and end address, and the end of the vma to be no farther than
the end. However, the sysfs PCI resource files always start at offset zero,
which means that this test always fails for programs that mmap the sysfs files.
Given the comment in the original commit
3b519e4ea618b6943a82931630872907f9ac2c2b, I _think_ the old procfs files
require that the file offset be equal to the resource's base address when
mmapping.
I think what we want here is for pci_start to be 0 when mmap_api ==
PCI_MMAP_PROCFS. The following patch makes that change, after which the Matrox
and Mach64 X drivers work again.

Strings allocated via kmemdup() in nfs_readdir_make_qstr() are
referenced from the nfs_cache_array which is stored in a page cache
page. Kmemleak does not scan such pages and it reports several false
positives. This patch annotates the string->name pointer so that
kmemleak does not consider it a real leak.

and args->version was always initialized to 3.

The addition of CONFIG_SECURITY_DMESG_RESTRICT resulted in a build
failure when CONFIG_PRINTK=n. This is because the capabilities code
which used the new option was built even though the variable in question
didn't exist.
The patch here fixes this by moving the capabilities checks out of the
LSM and into the caller. All (known) LSMs should have been calling the
capabilities hook already so it actually makes the code organization
better to eliminate the hook altogether.

Delete unused I2C adapter IDs. Special cases are:
* I2C_HW_B_RIVA was still set in driver rivafb, however no other
driver is ever looking for this value, so we can safely remove it.
* I2C_HW_B_HDPVR is used in staging driver lirc_zilog, however no
adapter ID is ever set to this value, so the code in question never
runs. As the code additionally expects that I2C_HW_B_HDPVR may not
be defined, we can delete it now and let the lirc_zilog driver
maintainer rewrite this piece of code.

The fix in commit 6b4e81db2552 ("i8k: Tell gcc that *regs gets
clobbered") to work around the gcc miscompiling i8k.c to add "+m
(*regs)" caused register pressure problems and a build failure.
Changing the 'asm' statement to 'asm volatile' instead should prevent
that and works around the gcc bug as well, so we can remove the "+m".
[ Background on the gcc bug: a memory clobber fails to mark the function
the asm resides in as non-pure (aka "__attribute__((const))"), so if
the function does nothing else that triggers the non-pure logic, gcc
will think that that function has no side effects at all. As a result,
callers will be mis-compiled.
Adding the "+m" made gcc see that it's not a pure function, and so
does "asm volatile". The problem was never really the need to mark
"*regs" as changed, since the memory clobber did that part - the
problem was just a bug in the gcc "pure" function analysis - Linus ]

We can't read the intrusion state from the real-time alarm registers
as we do for all other alarm flags, because real-time alarm bits don't
stick (by definition) and the intrusion state has to stick until
explicitly cleared (otherwise it has little value.)
So we have to use the interrupt status register instead, which is read
from the same address but with a configuration bit flipped in another
register.

This area of the code has always been a bit delicate due to the
subtleties of lock ordering. The problem is that for "normal"
alloc/dealloc, we always grab the inode locks first and the rgrp lock
later.
In order to ensure no races in looking up the unlinked, but still
allocated inodes, we need to hold the rgrp lock when we do the lookup,
which means that we can't take the inode glock.
The solution is to borrow the technique already used by NFS to solve
what is essentially the same problem (given an inode number, look up
the inode carefully, checking that it really is in the expected
state).
We cannot do that directly from the allocation code (lock ordering
again) so we give the job to the pre-existing delete workqueue and
carry on with the allocation as normal.
If we find there is no space, we do a journal flush (required anyway
if space from a deallocation is to be released) which should block
