[PATCH] kill old EH constants

Fix up two drivers that incorrectly were using the old return values for
their new-style EH methods and kill off scsi_obsolete.h that defined the
constants. The initio driver has all these constansts defined locally
and uses them internally, I'll fix that up some time later.

[PATCH] scsi: remove meaningless scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout field

scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout doesn't serve any purpose
anymore. All serial_number == serial_number_at_timeout tests
are always true in abort callbacks. Kill the field. Also, as
->pid always equals ->serial_number and ->serial_number
doesn't have any special meaning anymore, update comments
above ->serial_number accordingly. Once we remove all uses of
this field from all lldd's, this field should go.

updates for CFQ oops fix

- add a comment to the device structure that the device_busy field
is now protected by the request_queue->queue_lock
- null out sdev->request_queue after the queue is released to trap
any (and there shouldn't be any) use after the queue is freed.

[PATCH] fix NMI lockup with CFQ scheduler

The current problem seen is that the queue lock is actually in the
SCSI device structure, so when that structure is freed on device
release, we go boom if the queue tries to access the lock again.

The fix here is to move the lock from the scsi_device to the queue.

[PATCH] sg.c: update

The attachment combines the most recent patch from
Yum Rayan <yum.rayan@gmail.com> (to reduce sg stack
usage), Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> (to fix check
after use) and me (fix elapsed time calculation
(duration) on ia64 machines).

I have modified the patch from Yum Rayan so kmalloc()
in sg_read() is only called for the (rare) code paths
that need them.

Changelog:
- reduce stack usage in sg_ioctl() and sg_read()
- fix check after use in sg_mmap()
- hold duration internally in milliseconds and
check current time later than held time

[PATCH] md: close a small race in md thread deregistration

There is a tiny race when de-registering an MD thread, in that the thread
could disappear before it is set a SIGKILL, causing send_sig to have
problems.

This is most easily closed by holding tasklist_lock between enabling the
thread to exit (setting ->run to NULL) and telling it to exit.

[PATCH] jbd dirty buffer leak fix

This fixes the lots-of-fsx-linux-instances-cause-a-slow-leak bug.

It's been there since 2.6.6, caused by:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.5/2.6.5-mm4/broken-out/jbd-move-locked-buffers.patch

That patch moves under-writeout ordered-data buffers onto a separate journal
list during commit. It took out the old code which was based on a single
list.

The old code (necessarily) had logic which would restart I/O against buffers
which had been redirtied while they were on the committing transaction's
t_sync_datalist list. The new code only writes buffers once, ignoring
redirtyings by a later transaction, which is good.

But over on the truncate side of things, in journal_unmap_buffer(), we're
treating buffers on the t_locked_list as inviolable things which belong to the
committing transaction, and we just leave them alone during concurrent
truncate-vs-commit.

The net effect is that when truncate tries to invalidate a page whose buffers
are on t_locked_list and have been redirtied, journal_unmap_buffer() just
leaves those buffers alone. truncate will remove the page from its mapping
and we end up with an anonymous clean page with dirty buffers, which is an
illegal state for a page. The JBD commit will not clean those buffers as they
are removed from t_locked_list. The VM (try_to_free_buffers) cannot reclaim
these pages.

The patch teaches journal_unmap_buffer() about buffers which are on the
committing transaction's t_locked_list. These buffers have been written and
I/O has completed. We can take them off the transaction and undirty them
within the context of journal_invalidatepage()->journal_unmap_buffer().

[PATCH] IB/mthca: add fast memory region implementation

Implement fast memory regions (FMRs), where the driver writes directly into
the HCA's translation tables rather than requiring a firmware command. For
Tavor, MTTs for FMR are separate from regular MTTs, and are reserved at driver
initialization. This is done to limit the amount of virtual memory needed to
map the MTTs. For Arbel, there's no such limitation, and all MTTs and MPTs
may be used for FMR or for regular MR.
