Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: parport: ieee1284: use del_timer_sync() in parport_wait_event()
Problem Details: Use del_timer_sync() instead of del_timer() to make sure the timer won't be running when we return from parport_wait_event(), because this would crash due to destruction of timer_list. This is untested and just based on a code review. Just think about the following sequence of events: - add_timer() ...

Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: mm: introduce get_mm_hiwater_xxx(), fix taskstats->hiwater_xxx accounting
Problem Details: xacct_add_tsk() relies on do_exit()->update_hiwater_xxx() and uses mm->hiwater_xxx directly, this leads to 2 problems: - taskstats_user_cmd() can call fill_pid()->xacct_add_tsk() at any moment before the task exits, so we should check the current values of rss/vm anyway. - do_exit()->update_hiwat...

Problem Details: s_syncing livelock avoidance was breaking data integrity guarantee of sys_sync, by allowing sys_sync to skip writing or waiting for superblocks if there is a concurrent sys_sync happening.
