While the tracer accesses ptrace breakpoints, the child task may
concurrently exit due to a SIGKILL and thus release its breakpoints
at the same time. We can then dereference some freed pointers.

To fix this, hold a reference on the child breakpoints before
manipulating them.

* 'sh-latest' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lethal/sh-2.6:
  sh: Fix build alloc_thread_info_node function
  sh: Fix ptrace hw_breakpoint handling
  sh: Fix ptrace fpu state initialisation
  sh: Re-enable GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_DEPRECATED.
  sh: pmb: Use struct syscore_ops instead of sysdevs
  sh: Use struct syscore_ops instead of sysdevs
  sh: Conver to asm-generic/sizes.h.
  sh: wire up sys_syncfs.

By commit b6a84016bd2598e35ead635147fa53619982648d,
alloc_thread_info was replaced by alloc_thread_info_node.
However, the change of the function name and the addition of the argument
were incomplete.

The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0
backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in
connected state.  To run the connection reset function only in case of a
crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV
driver modules.

Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into
kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel()
usable for modules.

Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param().  This changes powerpc from __setup()
to early_param().  It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64
and powerpc.

Now that gate vma's are referenced with respect to a particular mm and not a
particular task it only makes sense to propagate the change to this predicate as
well.

Morally, the question of whether an address lies in a gate vma should be asked
with respect to an mm, not a particular task.  Moreover, dropping the dependency
on task_struct will help make existing and future operations on mm's more
flexible and convenient.
