The packet scheduler simulates 64 bit jiffies on 32 bit platforms by running
a timer keeping a mark and and offset.  Since there is no locking and this is
racy and doesn't handle jiffie wrap real well.

We can use get_jiffies_64 on 2.6 do get what is needed.
The downside is the overhead of a function call, and a cache miss in
get_jiffies_64.

The last argument in the PSCHED_TDIFF_SAFE is no longer used;
only usage eliminated by previous patch. It gets rid of a bad macro
usage.

Also, can use the standard min_t macro which also eliminates the
macro problem of double evaluation of bound.

This code in the csz scheduler, is just plain broken.  The TDIFF_SAFE 
effectively expands to:
	unsigned long delay = now - q->t_c;
	if (delay > 0) {
		delay = 0;
		goto do_reset;
	}
	if (delay >> q->delta_log)

So delay is always 0!  I assume that what was originally intended
is the to keep delay bounded to 1<<q->delta_log.

Another patchlet after turning on preempt and rerunning tests.
- against dev.c is a genuine bug - i wish preempt would have
given a more sane hint. Strange on how its a non issue when preempt is
off. 
- against act_api.c is just an annoyance. I removed the kmod because it
will only make sense to list actions if policies exist for that action.
And if policies exist, the module would be loaded.

I noticed that fs/buffer.c::drop_buffers() contains some code that
AFAICS doesn't actually do anything other than waste cpu cycles so here
is patch to remove it...  The local variable was_uptodate is being
messed with but it is not being read anywhere so it seems entirely
pointless.

I assume this must be a remainder from old code which mucked around with
the page uptodateness but which has since been (re-)moved.

efi.h declares a function type, and then uses that as an argument to
another function, and expects the compiler to magically demote the
function to a function pointer.

Even a gcc person (rth) was surprised that this was legal, and it
doesn't match any other use of a function pointer in the kernel, and
sparse doesn't like the implicit type-conversion.

So make the type sane in the first place, instead of depending on
a very weird corner case of the C language.

This fixes a bug in the ppc64 memset where the code that gets the
destination address aligned (or is supposed to) was looking at the
bottom 3 bits of the count rather than the destination address.  The
result of this was that the kernel wouldn't boot on POWER3 machines. 
The patch also removes an unnecessary duplicate instruction.

sizeof(struct kiocb) is dangerously large for a structure commonly
allocated on-stack. This patch converts the 24*sizeof(long) field,
->private, to a void pointer for use by file_operations entrypoints.
A ->dtor() method is added to the kiocb in order to support the release
of dynamically allocated structures referred to by ->private.

The sole in-tree users of ->private are async network read/write,
which are not, in fact, async, and so need not handle preallocated
->private as they would need to if ->ki_retry were ever used. The sole
truly async operations are direct IO pread()/pwrite() which do not
now use ->ki_retry(). All they would need to do in that case is to
check for ->private already being allocated for async kiocbs.

This rips 88B off the stack on 32-bit in the common case.

For each node there are a defined list of MAX_NR_ZONES zones.  These are
selected as a result of the __GFP_DMA and __GFP_HIGHMEM zone modifier flags
being passed to the memory allocator as part of the GFP mask.  Each node
has a set of zone lists, node_zonelists, which defines the list and order
of zones to scan for each flag combination.  When initialising these lists
we iterate over modifier combinations 0 ..  MAX_NR_ZONES.  However, this is
only correct when there are at most ZONES_SHIFT flags.  If another flag is
introduced zonelists for it would not be initialised.

This patch introduces GFP_ZONETYPES (based on GFP_ZONEMASK) as a bound for
the number of modifier combinations.

Like a few other drivers the vc driver is doing unlocked careless
references to file offsets.  Its got kind of 2.2 locking that hasnt been

Fortunately we have a real lock for this and can just make lseek use that
too.

This has been reported a couple of times and is consistently causing some
folks grief, so Urban, would you mind terribly if i send this patch to at
least clear current bug reports.  If there is additional stuff you want
ontop of this let me know and i can send a follow up patch.

The bug is that at times we haven't completed setting up the smb_ops so we
have a temporary 'null' ops in place until the connection is completely up.
 With this setup it's possible to hit ->readdir() whilst the null ops are
still in place, so we put the process to sleep until the connection setup
is complete and then call the real ->readdir().
