      [PATCH] ext2: clear ext3 htree flag on directories · dac80052
      Andrew Morton authored
      Forward port of a change which Ted made to 2.4's ext2.
      
      HTREE backwards compatibility patch.
      
      "I thought (and assumed) this patch had been applied to both the ext2 and
       ext3 filesystems in the 2.4 kernel.  It turns out it had only made it into
       the ext3 filesystem code.  This means that if an HTREE-enabled filesystem is
       mounted using ext2, it will corrupt the filesystem as far as e2fsck and an
       ext3 htree-enabled kernel is concerned.  (The corruption won't cause any
       data loss, but it will cause e2fsck and an ext3-htree kernel to omit a lot
       of warning messages.)"

      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Matthew Dobson <colpatch@us.ibm.com>

      sizeof(vmlinux).

      [PATCH] Don't panic if TSC is enabled and notsc is used · 0355478a
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com>
      
      The kernel will currently panic if it was built with CONFIG_X86_TSC and
      someone boots it with `notsc'.
      
      Change it to just print a warning.

      [PATCH] fix preempt-issues with smp_call_function() · a8dd6484
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Thomas Schlichter <schlicht@uni-mannheim.de>
      
      Based on a patch from Dave Jones.
      
      It converts a large number of instances of:
      
      	smp_call_function(foo);
      	foo();
      
      into
      
      	on_each_cpu(foo);
      
      and in doing so fixes up the preempt-unsafeness of the first version.

      [PATCH] fix presto_get_sb() return value and oops. · e8375b8c
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Maneesh Soni <maneesh@in.ibm.com>
      
      It's supposed to return an ERR_PTR value on error, not NULL.

      [PATCH] loop: Fix OOM and oops · 29da03f1
      Andrew Morton authored
      The loop driver takes a copy of the data which it is writing.  When this
      happens on the try_to_free_pages() path, loop can easily consume ALL memory
      and bio_copy() will fail to allocate a page.
      
      Loop forgets to check the bio_copy() return value and oopses.
      
      Fix this by dropping PF_MEMALLOC and throttling to the block writeout speed.
      
      The patch exports blk_congestion_wait() to modules for this.  This is a
      needed export: several filesystems have a "try to allocate and yield if it
      failed" loop and blk_congestion_wait() is a more appropriate way of
      implementing the sleep in this situation.

      [PATCH] deadline IO scheduler dispatching fix · 159b5855
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Nick Piggin <piggin@cyberone.com.au>
      
      Closes a window in which we can get an invalid (already dispatched) request
      in the next_drq cache.
      
      This fixed an oops which was reported by Janet Morgan.

      [PATCH] fix e100 for big-endian machines · 361b3b62
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
      
      e100 is performing a header checksum calculation which is
      
      a) duplication of the core kernel's calculation of the same and
      
      b) incorrect on big-endian machines.
      
      This fix has been tested on ia32 and pppc64 and acked by davem, jgarzik
      and Scott Feldman

      [ARM] SA11x0 PCMCIA 8 · c0f05807
      Russell King authored
      Fix socket memory mapping bug - we need to take account of the
      requested card offset when returning the address for ioremap.

      [ARM] SA11x0 PCMCIA 7 · 33cdd9d7
      Russell King authored
      Request PCMCIA socket resources without marking them busy - this
      allows future modifications to pcmcia to allow it to claim the
      CIS resources for statically mapped sockets.

      [ARM] SA11x0 PCMCIA 6 · af02a9d3
      Russell King authored
      Sanitise our pcmcia interrupt handling.  Make sure we only use
      set_irq_type after the interrupt has been registered.
      
      Register the socket handling interrupts using the function name
      rather than some pointer passed by the generic code.
      
      Let the generic sa11x0 code handle the cards interrupt masking.

      [ARM] SA11x0 PCMCIA 5 · 657922c7
      Russell King authored
      Remove get_irq_info method, passing the information via the init
      method instead.  The IRQ allocated to a socket never changes on
      these platforms, so the extra code was just bloat.

      Convert all SA11x0 drivers to register with the Linux driver model,
      so they work with the pcmcia layer in 2.5.63.

      Make low level socket_status() method take the socket index as an
      argument in the same way that our other methods do.  socket_status()
      now only returns the status of the requested socket, not all sockets.

      a parameter rather than embedded in a structure.

      Russell King authored
      Make SA11x0 generic pcmcia implementation fit better with Dominik's
      work - pass around our socket structure rather than the socket number
      itself.  Reference socket operations using the socket structure
      rather than a static variable.

      [PATCH] Fix USB address setting · e61ed9f5
      Alan Stern authored
      You wouldn't expect that an innocent two-line patch would practically
      destroy the entire functionality of the USB subsystem.  But that's what my
      last patch did.  I didn't realize until I saw it in Greg's list of patches
      forwarded to Linus; that patch includes a mistakenly unreverted prior
      change.  This explains the problems I was having yesterday, and probably
      also the problems a great many people are having today.
      
      Anyway, here's the correction -- it puts things back to what they should
      have been in the first place.  Greg, please apply this and send it to
      Linus for his tree as soon as reasonably possible.
