1362fa078d DNS: Fix a NULL pointer deref when trying to read an error key [CVE-2011-1076]
When a DNS resolver key is instantiated with an error indication, attempts to
read that key will result in an oops because user_read() is expecting there to
be a payload - and there isn't one [CVE-2011-1076].

Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in
key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing.

Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the
amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated.

The buggy code was added in:

	commit 4a2d789267
	Author: Wang Lei <wang840925@gmail.com>
	Date:   Wed Aug 11 09:37:58 2010 +0100
	Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]

This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program
compiled with -lkeyutils:

	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <keyutils.h>
	#include <err.h>
	static char payload[] = "#dnserror=6";
	int main()
	{
		key_serial_t key;
		key = add_key("dns_resolver", "a", payload, sizeof(payload),
			      KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING);
		if (key == -1)
			err(1, "add_key");
		if (keyctl_read(key, NULL, 0) == -1)
			err(1, "read_key");
		return 0;
	}

What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user:

	dns-break: read_key: No such device or address

but instead the kernel oopses.

This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands
as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be
included in the data.  Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return
-EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read.

The oops looks like:

2c6315da6a hwmon: (jc42) do not allow writing to locked registers
On systems where the temperature sensor is actually used, the BIOS is
likely to have locked the alarm registers.  In that case, all writes
through the corresponding sysfs files would be silently ignored.

To prevent this, detect the locks and make the affected sysfs files
read-only.

noswapaccount couldn't be used to control memsw for both on/off cases so
we have added swapaccount[=0|1] parameter.  This way we can turn the
feature in two ways noswapaccount resp.  swapaccount=0.  We have kept the
original noswapaccount but I think we should remove it after some time as
it just makes more command line parameters without any advantages and also
the code to handle parameters is uglier if we want both parameters.

cf4e5c6e8d dt: Remove obsolete description of powerpc boot interface
32 and 64 bit powerpc support has been merged for a while now, but
the booting-without-of.txt document still describes 32 bit as not
supporting multiplatform, which is no longer true.  This patch fixes
the documentation.

Also remove references to powerpc-specific details outside of section
I in preparation to add details for other architectures.

v3: cleaned up a lot more powerpc-isms and updated text to reflect current
    usage conventions.

af5eb745ef NTFS: Fix invalid pointer dereference in ntfs_mft_record_alloc().
In ntfs_mft_record_alloc() when mapping the new extent mft record with
map_extent_mft_record() we overwrite @m with the return value and on
error, we then try to use the old @m but that is no longer there as @m
now contains an error code instead so we crash when dereferencing the
error code as if it were a pointer.

The simple fix is to use a temporary variable to store the return value
thus preserving the original @m for later use.  This is a backport from
the commercial Tuxera-NTFS driver and is well tested...

Thanks go to Julia Lawall for pointing this out (whilst I had fixed it
in the commercial driver I had failed to fix it in the Linux kernel).

3a5655a5b5 can: at91_can: make can_id of mailbox 0 configurable
Due to a chip bug (errata 50.2.6.3 & 50.3.5.3 in
"AT91SAM9263 Preliminary 6249H-ATARM-27-Jul-09") the contents of mailbox
0 may be send under certain conditions (even if disabled or in rx mode).

The workaround in the errata suggests not to use the mailbox and load it
with an unused identifier.

This patch implements the second part of the workaround. A sysfs entry
"mb0_id" is introduced. While the interface is down it can be used to
configure the can_id of mailbox 0. The default value id 0x7ff.

In order to use an extended can_id add the CAN_EFF_FLAG (0x80000000U)
to the can_id. Example:

- standard id 0x7ff:
echo 0x7ff      > /sys/class/net/can0/mb0_id

- extended id 0x1fffffff:
echo 0x9fffffff > /sys/class/net/can0/mb0_id

5230ff0ccc lguest: example launcher to use guard pages, drop PROT_EXEC, fix limit logic
PROT_EXEC seems to be completely unnecessary (as the lguest binary
never executes there), and will allow it to work with SELinux (and
more importantly, PaX :-) as they can/do forbid writable and
executable mappings.

Also, map PROT_NONE guard pages at start and end of guest memory for extra
paranoia.

I changed the length check to addr + size > guest_limit because >= is wrong
(addr of 0, size of getpagesize() with a guest_limit of getpagesize() would
false positive).
