Stupid bug - we need to compare the return value of recvmsg to the
value of iov_len, not its size. This caused port_helper processes not

pud_clear wasn't setting the _PAGE_NEWPAGE bit, fooling tlb_flush into
thinking that this area of the address space was up-to-date and not
unmapping whatever was covered by the pud.
This manifested itself as ldconfig on x86_64 complaining about the
first library it looked at not being a valid ELF
These two patches are bug fixes which need to get into 2.6.24.
