      [PATCH] double semicolon cleanup · 96531b37
      Alexander Stohr authored
      This cleans up a larger amount of superfluos ";;" statements in current
      Linux kernel sources by converting them to the regular single ";"
      statments.
      
      It seems to be a common problem that at the end of a line the semicolon
      key is producing an echo.

      [PATCH] ppc64: clean up virtual <-> absolute code · 807b9692
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>

      The iSeries has an arch-specific mapping from physical <-> absolute
      addresses.  Fortunately this is only used in a few places.  However, the
      following arch-specific macros/functions are provided in addition to the
      standard macros:
      
      	__a2p()
      	__a2v()
      	__p2a()
      	__p2v()
      	__v2a()
      	__v2p()
      	absolute_to_phys()
      	phys_to_absolute()
      	virt_to_absolute()
      	absolute_to_virt()
      
      Reduce them to these, with slightly shorter names, and taking either pointers
      or unsigned long (as per __va and __pa) rather than making the caller cast:
      
      	abs_to_phys()
      	phys_to_abs()
      
      And helper macros:
      
      	virt_to_abs()
      	abs_to_virt()
      
      As is standard, virtual addresses are returned as void *, physical and
      absolute as unsigned long.
      
      Note that the change the iSeries_setup is a little subtle: ea is set to
      __va(pa) above, so "phys_to_abs(pa)" is the same as "virt_to_abs(ea)".
      
      Also, REALADDR is renamed to ISERIES_HV_ADDR and used in a couple of places
      where appropriate.

      [PATCH] ppc64: make iSeries boot mostly · dd054a0b

            Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
      
      This patch just ensures that the RI bit is set really early as it seems it
      is not on iSeries Power4 machines (or maybe OS400 v5r3 does this).

      [PATCH] back out sysfs reference count change · ab955e9f
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
      This backs out Maneesh's sysfs patch that was recently added to the
      kernel.
      
      In its defense, the original patch did solve some fixes that could be
      duplicated on SMP machines, but the side affect of the patch caused lots
      of problems.  Basically it caused kobjects to get their references
      incremented when files that are not present in the kobject are asked for
      (udev can easily trigger this when it looks for files call "dev" in
      directories that do not have that file).  This can cause easy oopses
      when the VFS later ages out those old dentries and the kobject has its
      reference finally released (usually after the module that the kobject
      lived in was removed.)
      
      I will continue to work with Maneesh to try to solve the original bug,
      but for now, this patch needs to be applied.

      [PATCH] ppc64: Add a sync in context switch on SMP · 0ef9775d
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      For the same reason as ppc32, we need to ensure that all stores
      done on a CPU has reached the coherency domain and are visible
      to loads done by another CPU when context switching as the same
      thread may be rescheduled almost right away there.

      [PATCH] ppc32: PCI mmap update · 585d744b
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      This updates the ppc32 PCI mmap facility to allow mmap'ing of space
      outside of the actual devices, using the host bridge resources instead. 
      
      This allow userland to map things like legacy IO space by either using
      the bridge device itself, or simply any PCI device on the same bus
      domain

      [PATCH] ppc32: Allow PREEMPT with SMP in KConfig · f2c371c7
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      On ppc32, CONFIG_PREEMPT wasn't settable along with CONFIG_SMP
      for historical reasons (smp_processor_id() races). Those races have
      been fixes since then (well, should have been at least) so it's now
      safe to allow both options.

      [PATCH] ppc32: context switch fixes · ae4e82bd
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      This fixes a few issues with context switch on ppc32:
      
       - Makes sure we properly flush out all stores to the coherency domain
         when switching out, since the same thread could be switched back in
         on another CPU right away, those stores must be visible to all other
         CPUs. 
      
       - Remove dssall in the assembly calls and do it now once in switch_mm
         (stop vmx streams).  Assume the G5 doesn't need a sync after dssall. 
      
       - Remove bogus isync in the loop setting the userland segment registers
      
       - Do not switch the userland segments when the mm stays the same

      Add a warning if enable_kernel_{fp,altivec} is called with preempt
      enabled since this is always an error, and make sure the alignement

      [PATCH] Make pdflush run at nice 0 · 6e7bbc73
      Andrew Morton authored
      Since pdflush was converted to be launched by the kthread infrastructure it
      has inherited keventd's `nice -10' setting.  That hurts interactivity when
      pdflush is doing lots of work writing back through the dm-crypt layer.
      
      So set pdflush back to `nice 0'.

      [PATCH] catch errors when completing bio pairs · ca6530ab
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu>
      
      A couple of drivers can sometimes fail the first segments in a bio then
      requeue the rest of the request.  In this situation, if the last part of
      the bio completes successfully bio_pair_end_* will miss that the beginging
      of the bio had failed becuase they just return one when bi_size is not yet
      zero.  The attached patch moves the error value test before the bi_size to
      catch the above case.

      [PATCH] Fix BLKPREP_KILL · 2cba47a2

      If a MODE_SENSE(6) command is sent to an IDE cd using the CDROM_SEND_PACKET
      ioctl, then the kernel freezes solidly. To reproduce this, one can take the
      SCSI cmd [1a 08 31 00 10 00] and a 16 byte data buffer.
      
      After some bug hunting, I found out that the following is what happens:
      
      - ide-cd recognizes that MODE_SENSE(6) isn't supported and tries
        to abort the request from ide_cdrom_prep_pc by returning BLKPREP_KILL.
      
      - in elv_next_request(), the kill request is handled by
        the following code:
      
      	while (end_that_request_first(rq, 0, rq->nr_sectors))
      		;
      	end_that_request_last(rq);
      
      The while loop never exits. The end_that_request_first() doesn't do anything
      since rq->nr_sectors is 0; it just returns "not-done" after handling those 0
      bytes (rq->bio->bi_size is 16).
