Xiaotian Feng c8d2d47a9c cpumask: Fix cpumask leak in partition_sched_domains()
If doms_new is NULL, partition_sched_domains() will reset ndoms_cur
to 0, and free old sched domains with free_sched_domains(doms_cur, ndoms_cur).
As ndoms_cur is 0, the cpumask will not be freed.

Xiaotian Feng c91bc6ccd1 ahci: fix Null pointer dereference in achi_host_active()
commit b29900e6 (AHCI: Make distinct names for ports in /proc/interrupts)
introuded a regression, which resulted Null pointer dereference for achi
host with dummy ports. For ahci ports, when the port is dummy port, its
private_data will be NULL, as ata_dummy_port_ops doesn't support ->port_start.

changes in v2: use pp to check dummy ports, update comments

Xiaotian Feng ee297209bf proc: fix inconsistent lock state
Lockdep found an inconsistent lock state when rcu is processing delayed
work in softirq.  Currently, kernel is using spin_lock/spin_unlock to
protect proc_inum_ida, but proc_free_inum is called by rcu in softirq
context.

Use spin_lock_bh/spin_unlock_bh fix following lockdep warning.

Xiaotian Feng c1d390d8e6 megaraid: fix BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work
megaraid use INIT_WORK to declare a hotplug_work, but cast the
hotplug_work from work_struct to delayed_work and
schedule_delayed_work on it.  This is very dangerous, as other part of
delayed_work might be kernel memories allocated by others.

With commit 8852aac ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue
timer on 0 delay"), schedule_delayed_work() will check dwork->timer
before queue_work even when @delay is 0, this causes megaraid code to
hit the BUG_ON() in workqueue code.  Change megaraid code to use
delayed work.

Xiaotian Feng 71c6c837a0 drivers/net: fix tasklet misuse issue
In commit 175c0dff, drivers uses tasklet_kill to avoid put disabled tasklet
on the tasklet vec. But some of the drivers uses tasklet_init & tasklet_disable
in the driver init code, then tasklet_enable when it is opened. This makes
tasklet_enable on a killed tasklet and make ksoftirqd crazy then. Normally,
drivers should use tasklet_init/tasklet_kill on device open/remove, and use
tasklet_disable/tasklet_enable on device suspend/resume.

There's a circular locking dependency:

    .....................
    ---->unlock &nd->queue_lock

    ---->isdn_net_inc_frame_cnt
         ---->isdn_net_device_busy
              ----> lock &nd->queue_lock

This will trigger lockdep warnings:

 =======================================================

 ipppd/28379 is trying to acquire lock:

 which lock already depends on the new lock.

 We don't need to lock nd->queue->xmit_lock to protect single
