+Subject: alpha: fix broken network checksum
+
+From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>
+
+commit 0ef38d70d4118b2ce1a538d14357be5ff9dc2bbd upstream.
+
+The patch 3ddc5b46a8e90f3c9251338b60191d0a804b0d92 breaks networking on
+alpha (there is a follow-up fix 5cfe8f1ba5eebe6f4b6e5858cdb1a5be4f3272a6,
+but networking is still broken even with the second patch).
+
+The patch 3ddc5b46a8e90f3c9251338b60191d0a804b0d92 makes
+csum_partial_copy_from_user check the pointer with access_ok. However,
+csum_partial_copy_from_user is called also from csum_partial_copy_nocheck
+and csum_partial_copy_nocheck is called on kernel pointers and it is
+supposed not to check pointer validity.
+
+This bug results in ssh session hangs if the system is loaded and bulk
+data are printed to ssh terminal.
+
+This patch fixes csum_partial_copy_nocheck to call set_fs(KERNEL_DS), so
+that access_ok in csum_partial_copy_from_user accepts kernel-space
+addresses.
