      [PATCH] xattr: lock_kernel() balancing fix · 94ab45b5
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>
      
      This patch fixes an unbalanced lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() path in the ext3
      extended attributes code.  Instead of fixing this in fs/ext3/xattr_user.c,
      the locking code is moved to fs/ext3/xattr.c, since most other types of
      extended attributes will need the exact same functionality.

      [PATCH] hugetlbfs i_size fix · 2743f6fe
      Andrew Morton authored
      Growing i_size in hugetlbfs_prefault() isn't right - if we run out of pages,
      do_mmap_pgoff() will chop the partially-instantiated pages off again.
      
      So update i_size in hugetlbfs_file_mmap() if the whole mmap attempt was
      successful.

      [PATCH] Cyclone timer fixes · a188176b
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com>
      
              This patch "fixes" the timer_cyclone code by having it
      initialize fast_gettimeoffset_quotient and cpu_khz in the same manner as
      timer_tsc. This is required for enabling the timer_cyclone code on the
      x440.
      
      Ideally fast_gettimeoffset_quotient would not be used outside timer_tsc
      and cpu_khz would be initialized generically outside the timer
      subsystem. I have patches to do this, but they touch quite a bit of
      generic code, and I'd rather not make the timer_cyclone enablement
      (patch to follow) depend on these larger changes.

      [PATCH] ia32 TSC timer cleanup · c8230105
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com>
      
      This cleanup patch makes fast_gettimeoffset_quotient (a timer_tsc specific
      variable) static, and replaces its usage with cpu_khz, making it timer_opt
      independent.

      [PATCH] sysfs error handling fix · 93488c9b
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from: Rusty Lynch <rusty@linux.co.intel.com>
      
      Attempting to cat a sysfs file that returns an error will result in an
      endless dump of garbage to the screen because the result of the specific show
      operation was being saved to a size_t (unsigned) and then later checked for a
      negative value.
      
      Here is a trivial patch to fix the error.

      [PATCH] set unplug_timer.function inside blk_queue_make_request · ccb77d05
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
      
      Initialise the queue's unplug_timer inside blk_queue_make_request.  This
      makes the new auto-unplugging more accessable by other clients of
      blk_queue_make_request - e.g.  raid5, umem.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      This simplifies it and makes it more generic.
