Jeff,
Not seeing any objections to your revised approach (to not allowing
signals for cifsd kernel thread), I just merged something similar to
your patch to the cifs-2.6.git tree (also fixed some nearby lines that

Processors synchronization in set_mtrr requires the .gate field
to be set after .count field is properly initialized. Without an explicit
barrier, the compiler was reordering those memory stores. That was sometimes
causing a processor (in ipi_handler) to see the .gate change and

That's how I would do it, to complement dma_mapping.h.

As some of you know, lately I've been trying to get rid of tasklets. In
doing so, I've come across this usage of tasklet_unlock.
The only user of tasklet_unlock in the kernel outside of softirq.c is
ipath_no_bufs_available in drivers/inifiniband/hw/ipath/ipath_ruc.c
Here's the offending code:
[PATCH] x86-64: disable the GART in shutdown

installed. when using kexec to load second kernel. In the second kernel,
when mem is allocated for GART, it will do the memset for clear, it will cause
