[ Upstream commit da8c87241c26aac81a64c7e4d21d438a33018f4e ]

There are two places to call vlan_set_encap_proto():
vlan_untag() and __pop_vlan_tci().

vlan_untag() assumes skb-&gt;data points after mac addr, otherwise
the following code

        vhdr = (struct vlan_hdr *) skb-&gt;data;
        vlan_tci = ntohs(vhdr-&gt;h_vlan_TCI);
        __vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(skb, vlan_tci);

        skb_pull_rcsum(skb, VLAN_HLEN);

won't be correct. But __pop_vlan_tci() assumes points _before_
mac addr.

In vlan_set_encap_proto(), it looks for some magic L2 value
after mac addr:

        rawp = skb-&gt;data;
        if (*(unsigned short *) rawp == 0xFFFF)
	...

Therefore __pop_vlan_tci() is obviously wrong.

A quick fix is avoiding using skb-&gt;data in vlan_set_encap_proto(),
use 'vhdr+1' is always correct in both cases.

commit e93a9a868792ad71cdd09d75e5a02d8067473c4e upstream.

I've still got lockdep warnings even after Alan's patch, and it seems that
yet more band aids are required to paper over similar paths for
unbind_con_driver() and unregister_con_driver().  After this hack, lockdep
warnings are finally gone.

commit 50e244cc793d511b86adea24972f3a7264cae114 upstream.

Adjust the console layer to allow a take over call where the caller
already holds the locks.  Make the fb layer lock in order.

This is partly a band aid, the fb layer is terminally confused about the
locking rules it uses for its notifiers it seems.

<title>vgacon/vt: clear buffer attributes when we load a 512 character font (v2)</title>

commit 2a2483072393b27f4336ab068a1f48ca19ff1c1e upstream.

When we switch from 256-&gt;512 byte font rendering mode, it means the
current contents of the screen is being reinterpreted. The bit that holds
the high bit of the 9-bit font, may have been previously set, and thus
the new font misrenders.

The problem case we see is grub2 writes spaces with the bit set, so it
ends up with data like 0x820, which gets reinterpreted into 0x120 char
which the font translates into G with a circumflex. This flashes up on
screen at boot and is quite ugly.

A current side effect of this patch though is that any rendering on the
screen changes color to a slightly darker color, but at least the screen
no longer corrupts.

v2: as suggested by hpa, always clear the attribute space, whether we
are are going to or from 512 chars.

commit 513b032c98b4b9414aa4e9b4a315cb1bf0380101 upstream.

The PPS serial line discipline wants to attach a PPS device to a tty
without changing the tty code to add a struct pps_device * pointer.

Since the number of PPS devices in a typical system is generally very low
(n=1 is by far the most common), it's practical to search the entire list
of allocated pps devices.  (We capture the timestamp before the lookup,
so the timing isn't affected.)

It is a bit ugly that this function, which is part of the in-kernel
PPS API, has to be in pps.c as opposed to kapi,c, but that's not
something that affects users.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Revert iwlwifi reclaimed packet tracking, it causes problems for a
    bunch of folks.  From Emmanuel Grumbach.

 2) Work limiting code in brcmsmac wifi driver can clear tx status
    without processing the event.  From Arend van Spriel.

 3) rtlwifi USB driver processes wrong SKB, fix from Larry Finger.

 4) l2tp tunnel delete can race with close, fix from Tom Parkin.

 5) pktgen_add_device() failures are not checked at all, fix from Cong
    Wang.

 6) Fix unintentional removal of carrier off from tun_detach(),
    otherwise we confuse userspace, from Michael S.  Tsirkin.

 7) Don't leak socket reference counts and ubufs in vhost-net driver,
    from Jason Wang.

 8) vmxnet3 driver gets it's initial carrier state wrong, fix from Neil
    Horman.

 9) Protect against USB networking devices which spam the host with 0
    length frames, from Bjørn Mork.

10) Prevent neighbour overflows in ipv6 for locally destined routes,
    from Marcelo Ricardo.  This is the best short-term fix for this, a
    longer term fix has been implemented in net-next.

11) L2TP uses ipv4 datagram routines in it's ipv6 code, whoops.  This
    mistake is largely because the ipv6 functions don't even have some
    kind of prefix in their names to suggest they are ipv6 specific.
    From Tom Parkin.

12) Check SYN packet drops properly in tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(), from
    Yuchung Cheng.

13) Fix races and TX skb freeing bugs in via-rhine's NAPI support, from
    Francois Romieu and your's truly.

14) Fix infinite loops and divides by zero in TCP congestion window
    handling, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Ilpo Järvinen.

15) AF_PACKET tx ring handling can leak kernel memory to userspace, fix
    from Phil Sutter.

16) Fix error handling in ipv6 GRE tunnel transmit, from Tommi Rantala.

17) Protect XEN netback driver against hostile frontend putting garbage
    into the rings, don't leak pages in TX GOP checking, and add proper
    resource releasing in error path of xen_netbk_get_requests().  From
    Ian Campbell.

18) SCTP authentication keys should be cleared out and released with
    kzfree(), from Daniel Borkmann.

19) L2TP is a bit too clever trying to maintain skb-&gt;truesize, and ends
    up corrupting socket memory accounting to the point where packet
    sending is halted indefinitely.  Just remove the adjustments
    entirely, they aren't really needed.  From Eric Dumazet.

20) ATM Iphase driver uses a data type with the same name as the S390
    headers, rename to fix the build.  From Heiko Carstens.

21) Fix a typo in copying the inner network header offset from one SKB
    to another, from Pravin B Shelar.

In commit 6509141f9c2ba74df6cc72ec35cd1865276ae3a4 ("usbnet: add new
flag FLAG_NOARP for usb net devices"), the newly added flag NOARP was
using an already defined value, which broke drivers using flag
MULTI_PACKET.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "I've got a few bits pending for 3.8 final, that I better get sent out.
  It's all been sitting for a while, I consider it safe.

  It contains:

   - Two bug fixes for mtip32xx, fixing a driver hang and a crash.

   - A few-liner protocol error fix for drbd.

   - A few fixes for the xen block front/back driver, fixing a potential
     data corruption issue.

   - A race fix for disk_clear_events(), causing spurious warnings.  Out
     of the Chrome OS base.

   - A deadlock fix for disk_clear_events(), moving it to the a
     unfreezable workqueue.  Also from the Chrome OS base."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  drbd: fix potential protocol error and resulting disconnect/reconnect
  mtip32xx: fix for crash when the device surprise removed during rebuild
  mtip32xx: fix for driver hang after a command timeout
  block: prevent race/cleanup
  block: remove deadlock in disk_clear_events
  xen-blkfront: handle bvecs with partial data
  llist/xen-blkfront: implement safe version of llist_for_each_entry
  xen-blkback: implement safe iterator for the list of persistent grants

<title>memcg: fix typo in kmemcg cache walk macro</title>

The macro for_each_memcg_cache_index contains a silly yet potentially
deadly mistake.  Although the macro parameter is _idx, the loop tests
are done over i, not _idx.

This hasn't generated any problems so far, because all users use i as a
loop index.  However, while playing with an extension of the code I
ended using another loop index and the compiler was quick to complain.

Unfortunately, this is not the kind of thing that testing reveals =(
