      x86, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinux · 1648e4f8
      H. Peter Anvin authored
      It is common to use "make install" in restricted environments which
      differ from the one which was actually used to build the kernel.  In
      such environments it is highly undesirable to trigger a rebuild of any
      part of the system.  Worse, the rebuild may be spurious, triggered by
      differences in the environment.

      x86/uv: fix init of cpu-less nodes · 27229ca6
      Jack Steiner authored
      Fix an endcase in the UV initialization code for the "UV large system mode"
      of apicids.  If node zero contains no cpus, cpus on another node will be the
      boot cpu.  The percpu data that contains the extra apicid bits was not
      being initialized early enough.

      x86/uv: fix init of memory-less nodes · dc098551
      Jack Steiner authored
      Add support for nodes that have cpus but no memory.
      The current code was failing to add these nodes
      to the nodes_present_map.
      
      v2: Fixes case caught by David Rientjes - missed support
          for the x2apic SRAT table.

      x86: disable X86_PTRACE_BTS for now · d45b41ae
      Ingo Molnar authored
      Oleg Nesterov found a couple of races in the ptrace-bts code
      and fixes are queued up for it but they did not get ready in time
      for the merge window. We'll merge them in v2.6.31 - until then
      mark the feature as CONFIG_BROKEN. There's no user-space yet
      making use of this so it's not a big issue.
