HEAD: 93362fa47fe98b62e4a34ab408c4a418432e7939 sysctl: Drop reference added by grab_header in proc_sys_readdir
This tree contains 4 fixes.
The first is a fix for a race that can causes oopses under the right
circumstances, and that someone just recently encountered.
Past that are several small trivial correct fixes. A real issue that
was blocking development of an out of tree driver, but does not appear
to have caused any actual problems for in-tree code. A potential
deadlock that was reported by lockdep. And a deadlock people have
experienced and took the time to track down caused by a cleanup that
removed the code to drop a reference count.
I have dropped the mount hash table fix that Al objected to and will
come back to that when the discussion around that patch is complete.
