[IA64] disable interrupts on exit of ia64_trace_syscall

While testing with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y, I found that

If pUStk is true, it means we are going to return user mode, hence we fetch
ar.itc to get time at leave from system.
It seems that it is not possible to interrupt the window if pUStk is true,
because interrupts are disabled early.  And also disabling interrupt makes
sense because it is safe for referring current_thread_info()->flags.

However interrupting the window while pUStk is true was possible.
The route was:
ia64_trace_syscall
-> .work_pending_syscall_end
-> .work_processed_syscall
Only in case entering the window from this route, interrupts are enabled
during in the window even if pUStk is true.  I suppose interrupts must be
disabled here anyway if pUStk is true.
I'm not sure but afraid that what kind of bad effect were there, other
than crazy system time which I found.

FYI, there was a commit 6f6d75825dc49b082906b84537b4df28293c2977 that
points out a bug at same point(exit of ia64_trace_syscall) in 2006.
It can be said that there was an another bug.

ptrace: compat_ptrace_request siginfo

This adds support for PTRACE_GETSIGINFO and PTRACE_SETSIGINFO in
compat_ptrace_request.  It relies on existing arch definitions for
copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_from_user32.

On powerpc, this fixes a longstanding regression of 32-bit ptrace
calls on 64-bit kernels vs native calls (64-bit calls or 32-bit
kernels).  This can be seen in a 32-bit call using PTRACE_GETSIGINFO
to examine e.g. siginfo_t.si_addr from a signal that sets it.
(This was broken as of 2.6.24 and, I presume, many or all prior versions.)

The RCU iterators used 'rcu_dereference()' on an already-fetched RCU

When we dereference a pointer protected by RCU, we need to make sure

re-loading it due to register pressure, the newly reloaded value could
be different from the previously fetched one, and you get inconsistent

block: fix memory hotplug and bouncing in block layer

Only noticed this while hacking something else, no test case.

blk_max_low_pfn is initialized once at bootup by the block layer from
max_low_pfn.  But max_low_pfn is not necessarily constant over the runtime of
the system when you consider memory hotplug.  What could happen if that
someone adds memory later the block layer wouldn't get updated and then start
bouncing memory unnecessarily.

Also on 64bit blk_max_low_pfn actually isn't needed because it just disables
bouncing essentially and there is no highmem.  And nobody can pass pfns >
max_low_pfn to the block layer, because those wouldn't have a struct page and
I suspect block layer wouldn't be very happy without that.

So set BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH to infinity (-1ULL) on 64bit.  That avoids the problem
of having to update it on memory hotadd.

On 32bit I kept the same behaviour because at least on i386
memory hotadd only adds HIGHMEM, never lowmem.

BLK_BOUNCE_ANY is always set to infinity on both 32 and 64bit.

that req->data_len (the true data length) is equal to sum(bio). It
broke the scsi command completion code.

commit e97a294ef6938512b655b1abf17656cf2b26f709 was introduced to fix
the above issue. However, the partial completion code doesn't work
with it. The commit is also a layer violation (scsi mid-layer should
not know about the block layer's padding).

This patch moves the padding adjustment to blk_rq_map_sg (suggested by
James). The padding works like the drain buffer. This patch breaks the
rule that req->data_len is equal to sum(sg), however, the drain buffer
already broke it. So this patch just restores the rule that
req->data_len is equal to sub(bio) without breaking anything new.

Now when a low level driver needs padding, blk_rq_map_user and
blk_rq_map_user_iov guarantee there's enough room for padding.
blk_rq_map_sg can safely extend the last entry of a scatter list.

blk_rq_map_sg must extend the last entry of a scatter list only for a
request that got through bio_copy_user_iov. This patches introduces

loop: manage partitions in disk image

This patch allows to use loop device with partitionned disk image.

A new parameter is introduced to define how many partition we want to be
able to manage per loop device. This parameter is "max_part".

For instance, to manage 63 partitions / loop device, we will do:
# modprobe loop max_part=63
# ls -l /dev/loop?*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7,   0 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop0

brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 448 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop7

And to attach a raw partitionned disk image, the original losetup is used:

# losetup -f etch.img
# ls -l /dev/loop?*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7,   0 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop0

boot   etc    initrd.img  media       proc  selinux  tmp  vmlinuz
# umount /mnt
# losetup -d /dev/loop0

Of course, the same behavior can be done using kpartx on a loop device,
but modifying loop avoids to stack several layers of block device (loop +
device mapper), this is a very light modification (40% of modifications
