Gregory Nutt 20a86dfc1b binfmt/ and sched/group: Re-architect the way that loadable ELF or NXFLAT modules are unloaded. Memory resources must be recovered when the task loaded into memory exits. The originmal implementatino used the death-of-child SIGCHLD signal to perform the unload. There are several problems with this: It is overly complex, it requires that the parent task stay resident while the loaded task runs, and it has fatal logic flaws in the protected and kernel model builds because the user signal handler attempts to run in the kernel address space. This commit corrects with using a mindlessly simply BINFMT callback when the task exits.

binfmt_dumpmodule.c

fs/cromfs: Fix a error in reading partial compressed blocks. The LZF decompressor does not support that operation. Instead we have to decompress full block into a temporary buffer and copy out the parts that we need. To compensate for the performance hit, a caching mechanism was added so that we do not have to read the same block repeatedly. Unrelated: Also updates some README files.
