In order to get the __NR_* constants, we need sys/syscall.h.
linux/unistd.h works as well since it includes syscall.h, however syscall.h
is more parsimonious. We were inconsistent in this, and this patch adds
syscall.h includes where necessary and removes linux/unistd.h includes
where they are not needed.
asm/unistd.h also includes the __NR_* constants, but these are not the
glibc-sanctioned ones, so this also removes one such inclusion.

Fix a UML hang in which everything would just stop until some I/O happened
- a ping, someone whacking the keyboard - at which point everything would
start up again as though nothing had happened.
The cause was gcc reordering some code which absolutely needed to be
executed in the order in the source. When unblock_signals switches signals
from off to on, it needs to see if any interrupts had happened in the
critical section. The interrupt handlers check signals_enabled - if it is
zero, then the handler adds a bit to the "pending" bitmask and returns.
unblock_signals checks this mask to see if any signals need to be
delivered.
The crucial part is this:
signals_enabled = 1;
save_pending = pending;
if(save_pending == 0)
return;
pending = 0;
In order to avoid an interrupt arriving between reading pending and setting
it to zero, in which case, the record of the interrupt would be erased,
signals are enabled.
What happened was that gcc reordered this so that 'save_pending = pending'
came before 'signals_enabled = 1', creating a one-instruction window within
which an interrupt could arrive, set its bit in pending, and have it be
immediately erased.
When the I/O workload is purely disk-based, the loss of a block device
interrupt stops the entire I/O system because the next block request will
wait for the current one to finish. Thus the system hangs until something
else causes some I/O to arrive, such as a network packet or console input.
The fix to this particular problem is a memory barrier between enabling
signals and reading the pending signal mask. An xchg would also probably
work.
Looking over this code for similar problems led me to do a few more
things:
- make signals_enabled and pending volatile so that they don't get cached
in registers
- add an mb() to the return paths of block_signals and unblock_signals so
that the modification of signals_enabled doesn't get shuffled into the
caller in the event that these are inlined in the future.

Callers after reiserfs_init_bitmap_cache() expect errval to contain -EINVAL
until much later. If a condition fails before errval is reset later,
reiserfs_fill_super() will mistakenly return 0, causing an Oops in
do_add_mount(). This patch resets errval to -EINVAL after the call.
I view this as a temporary fix and real error codes should be used
throughout reiserfs_fill_super().

===================================================================
Cause for this problem was,2 successive mutex_lock calls on 2 diffrent inodes ,as shown below
static int
nfsd4_clear_clid_dir(struct dentry *dir, struct dentry *dentry)
{
int status;
/* For now this directory should already be empty, but we empty it of
* any regular files anyway, just in case the directory was created by
* a kernel from the future.... */
nfsd4_list_rec_dir(dentry, nfsd4_remove_clid_file);
mutex_lock(&dir->d_inode->i_mutex);
status = vfs_rmdir(dir->d_inode, dentry);
...
int vfs_rmdir(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry)
{
int error = may_delete(dir, dentry, 1);
if (error)
return error;
if (!dir->i_op || !dir->i_op->rmdir)
return -EPERM;
DQUOT_INIT(dir);
mutex_lock(&dentry->d_inode->i_mutex);
...
So I have developed the patch to overcome this problem.

758333458a fixes the not checked copy_to_user
return value of compat_sys_pselect7. I ran into this too because of an old
source tree, but my fix would look quite a bit different to Andi's fix.
The reason is that the compat function IMHO should behave the very same as
the non-compat function if possible. Since sys_pselect7 does not return
-EFAULT in this specific case, change the compat code so it behaves like
sys_pselect7.
