The device details and mapping trees were just being decremented
before.  Now btree_del() is called to do a deep delete.

[ Upstream commit HEAD ]

commit b97e92574c0bf335db1cd2ec491d8ff5cd5d0b49 upstream
    Use separate bitmaps for each nodes in the cluster

bitmap_read_sb() validates the bitmap superblock that it reads in.
If it finds an inconsistency like a bad magic number or out-of-range
version number, it prints an error and returns, but it incorrectly
returns zero, so the array is still assembled with the (invalid) bitmap.

This means it could try to use a bitmap with a new version number which
it therefore does not understand.

This bug was introduced in 3.5 and fix as part of a larger patch in 4.1.
So the patch is suitable for any -stable kernel in that range.

[ Upstream commit 34cab6f42003cb06f48f86a86652984dec338ae9 ]

When we get a read error from the last working device, we don't
try to repair it, and don't fail the device.  We simple report a
read error to the caller.

However the current test for 'is this the last working device' is
wrong.
When there is only one fully working device, it assumes that a
non-faulty device is that device.  However a spare which is rebuilding
would be non-faulty but so not the only working device.

So change the test from "!Faulty" to "In_sync".  If -&gt;degraded says
there is only one fully working device and this device is in_sync,
this must be the one.

This bug has existed since we allowed read_balance to read from
a recovering spare in v3.0

[ Upstream commit 423f04d63cf421ea436bcc5be02543d549ce4b28 ]

raid1_end_read_request() assumes that the In_sync bits are consistent
with the -&gt;degaded count.
raid1_spare_active updates the In_sync bit before the -&gt;degraded count
and so exposes an inconsistency, as does error()
So extend the spinlock in raid1_spare_active() and error() to hide those
inconsistencies.

This should probably be part of
  Commit: 34cab6f42003 ("md/raid1: fix test for 'was read error from
  last working device'.")
as it addresses the same issue.  It fixes the same bug and should go
to -stable for same reasons.

[ Upstream commit 33afeac21b9cb79ad8fc5caf239af89c79e25e1e ]

commit b6878d9e03043695dbf3fa1caa6dfc09db225b16 upstream.

In drivers/md/md.c get_bitmap_file() uses kmalloc() for creating a
mdu_bitmap_file_t called "file".

5769         file = kmalloc(sizeof(*file), GFP_NOIO);
5770         if (!file)
5771                 return -ENOMEM;

This structure is copied to user space at the end of the function.

5786         if (err == 0 &amp;&amp;
5787             copy_to_user(arg, file, sizeof(*file)))
5788                 err = -EFAULT

But if bitmap is disabled only the first byte of "file" is initialized
with zero, so it's possible to read some bytes (up to 4095) of kernel
space memory from user space. This is an information leak.

5775         /* bitmap disabled, zero the first byte and copy out */
5776         if (!mddev-&gt;bitmap_info.file)
5777                 file-&gt;pathname[0] = '\0';

[ Upstream commit 6096d91af0b65a3967139b32d5adbb3647858a26 ]

The metadata space map has a simplified 'bootstrap' mode that is
operational when extending the space maps.  Whilst in this mode it's
possible for some refcount decrement operations to become queued (eg, as
a result of shadowing one of the bitmap indexes).  These decrements were
not being applied when switching out of bootstrap mode.

The effect of this bug was the leaking of a 4k metadata block.  This is
detected by the latest version of thin_check as a non fatal error.
