[PATCH 00/69] "Revert and fix properly" patch series based on umn.edu re-review

Hi all,

[individuals put on bcc: due to quantity would have been rejected by vger]

Here is the "final" set of reverts and fixes based on the re-review of
all accepted umn.edu commits. It consists of 7 "clean" reverts that do
not need to be fixed up again for various reasons (see the commit
messages for reasoning), and then 31 sets of "revert & fix" commits that
consist of reverting the offending commit and then fixing it up
properly.

Where these patches were accepted into stable kernels, I've properly
tagged them for reverting in the stable kernels automatically as well.

I'll be taking these through one of my trees, so there's no need for any
maintainer to have to worry about these needing to go through theirs.

Many thanks to the huge number of people who provided the original
"revert review" of all of the patches, as well as the developers here
who worked to provide "correct" fixes for these issues so that no kernel
release will go out with any bugfix being dropped.

thanks,

greg k-h
