if IO space is not available"
This reverts commit 5040cb8b7e61b7a03e8837920b9eb2c839bb1947.
It breaks previously working ide-cs PIO configurations, causing problems
like
ide2: I/O resource 0xF883200E-0xF883200E not free.
ide2: ports already in use, skipping probe
rather than a working kernel.

This effectively reverts commit b8d35192c55fb055792ff0641408eaaec7c88988
by reverts acpi_os_queue_for_execution() to what it was before that,
except it changes the name to acpi_os_execute() to match ACPICA
20060512.

[ The thread execution doesn't actually solve the bug it set out to
solve (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5534
for more details) because the new events can get caught behind the AML
semaphore or other serialization. And when that happens, the notify
threads keep on piling up until the system dies. ]

When the driver handles multiple packets per NAPI poll, it is
better to reload the receive ring, then tell the hardware. Otherwise,
under packet storm with flow control, the driver/hardware will degrade
down to one packet getting through per pause-exchange.
Likewise on transmit, don't wakeup until a little more than minimum
ring space is available.

The changes to handle suspend/resume didn't handle the case where
a dual port card has the first port down, but the second is running.
In this driver, all NAPI polling is done on the primary port.

There were some tso bugs that only showed up with heavy load and 16kB
pages that this patch fixes by making the driver's internal use count
of descriptors match the count that it was estimating it needed using
the DESC_NEEDED macro. This bug caused NETDEV_WATCHDOG resets aka

Prior to 2.6.18rc1 you could install with devices on a JMicron chipset
using the "all-generic-ide" option. As of this kernel the AHCI driver
grabs the controller and rams it into AHCI mode losing the PATA ports
and making CD drives and the like vanish. The all-generic-ide option
fails because the AHCI driver grabbed the PCI device and reconfigured
it.
To fix this three things are needed.
#1 We must put the chip into dual function mode
#2 The AHCI driver must grab only function 0 (already in your rc1 tree)
#3 Something must grab the PATA ports
The attached patch is the minimal risk edition of this. It puts the chip
into dual function mode so that AHCI will grab the SATA ports without
losing the PATA ports. To keep the risk as low as possible the third
patch adds the PCI identifiers for the PATA port and the FN check to the
ide-generic driver. There is a more featured jmicron driver on its way
but that adds risk and the ide-generic support is sufficient to install
and run a system.
The actual chip setup done by the quirk is the precise setup recommended
by the vendor.
(The JMB368 appears only in the ide-generic entry as it has no AHCI so
does not need the quirk)

During the recent discussion of taking 'volatile' off of the spinlock, I
noticed that while most arches #define cpu_relax() such that it implies
barrier(), some arches define cpu_relax() to be empty.
This patch changes the definition of cpu_relax() for frv, h8300, m68knommu,
sh, sh64, v850 and xtensa from an empty while(0) to the compiler barrier().

We're supposed to go the next power of two if nfds==nr.
Of `nr', not of `nfsd'.

It looks like someone confused kmem_cache_create with a different allocator
and was attempting to give it knowledge of how many cache entries there
were.
With the unfortunate result that each slab entry was big enough to hold
every irq.

Address a potential 'larger than buffer size' memory access by
clear_user(). Without this patch, this call to clear_user() can attempt to
clear too many (tsz) bytes resulting in a wrong (-EFAULT) return code by
read_kcore().

sysfs has a different i_mutex lock order behavior for i_mutex than the
other filesystems; sysfs i_mutex is called in many places with subsystem
locks held. At the same time, many of the VFS locking rules do not apply
to sysfs at all (cross directory rename for example). To untangle this
mess (which gives false positives in lockdep), we're giving sysfs inodes
their own class for i_mutex.

When found, it is obvious. nfds calculated when allocating fdsets is
rewritten by calculation of size of fdtable, and when we are unlucky, we
try to free fdsets of wrong size.
Found due to OpenVZ resource management (User Beancounters).

Based on a patch from Ernie Petrides
During security research, Red Hat discovered a behavioral flaw in core
dump handling. A local user could create a program that would cause a
core file to be dumped into a directory they would not normally have
permissions to write to. This could lead to a denial of service (disk
consumption), or allow the local user to gain root privileges.
The prctl() system call should never allow to set "dumpable" to the
value 2. Especially not for non-privileged users.
This can be split into three cases:
1) running as root -- then core dumps will already be done as root,
and so prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE, 2) is not useful
2) running as non-root w/setuid-to-root -- this is the debatable case
3) running as non-root w/setuid-to-non-root -- then you definitely
do NOT want "dumpable" to get set to 2 because you have the
privilege escalation vulnerability
With case #2, the only potential usefulness is for a program that has
designed to run with higher privilege (than the user invoking it) that
wants to be able to create root-owned root-validated core dumps. This
might be useful as a debugging aid, but would only be safe if the program
had done a chdir() to a safe directory.
There is no benefit to a production setuid-to-root utility, because it
shouldn't be dumping core in the first place. If this is true, then the
same debugging aid could also be accomplished with the "suid_dumpable"
sysctl.
