      [PATCH] swsusp: fix devfs breakage introduced in 2.6.6 · 12186dc4
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>
      
      This fixes bad interaction between devfs and swsusp.
      
      Check whether the swap device is the specified resume device, irrespective of
      whether they are specified by identical names.
      
      (Thus, device inode aliasing is allowed.  You can say /dev/hda4 instead of
      /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part4 [if using devfs] and they'll be
      considered the same device.  This is *necessary* for devfs, since the resume
      code can only recognize the form /dev/hda4, but the suspend code would like
      the long name [as shown in 'cat /proc/mounts'].)
      
      [Thanks to devfs hero whose name I forgot.]

      [PATCH] swsusp: kill unneccessary debugging · a7f8c55f
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>
      
      This is no longer neccessary.  We have enough pauses elsewhere, and it works
      well enough that this is not needed.

      [PATCH] blk: clear completion stack pointer on return · cb79a0b2
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
      
      It doesn't always look safe to let ->waiting remain set when returning from
      functions that set it to point to stack area, since various locations check
      for != NULL to see if it's valid.  So clear it on return from
      ide_do_drive_cmd() and blk_execute_rq().

      [PATCH] Sanitise handling of unneeded syscall stubs · 581ae915
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: David Mosberger <davidm@napali.hpl.hp.com>
      
      Below is a patch that tries to sanitize the dropping of unneeded system-call
      stubs in generic code.  In some instances, it would be possible to move the
      optional system-call stubs into a library routine which would avoid the need
      for #ifdefs, but in many cases, doing so would require making several
      functions global (and possibly exporting additional data-structures in
      header-files).  Furthermore, it would inhibit (automatic) inlining in the
      cases in the cases where the stubs are needed.  For these reasons, the patch
      keeps the #ifdef-approach.
      
      This has been tested on ia64 and there were no objections from the
      arch-maintainers (and one positive response).  The patch should be safe but
      arch-maintainers may want to take a second look to see if some __ARCH_WANT_foo
      macros should be removed for their architecture (I'm quite sure that's the
      case, but I wanted to play it safe and only preserved the status-quo in that
      regard).

      [PATCH] trivial: use page_to_phys in dma_map_page() · f110f331
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Trivial Patch Monkey <trivial@rustcorp.com.au>
      
      From:  Adam Lackorzynski <adam@os.inf.tu-dresden.de>
      
      dma_map_page() can be simplified by using page_to_phys instead of writing the
      calculation explicitly.

      [PATCH] fbdev: mode switching fix. · 458a5513
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: James Simmons <jsimmons@infradead.org>
      
      This fixes the bugs that where in mode switch via stty.
      
      The problem was we couldn't set the mode just by using the x and y
      resolution.  We use modedb to fill in the rest.  There also was a bug that
      allowed you to change the console resolution for drivers with fixed
      resolutions.  This would mess up your display.  Now that is fixed.

      [PATCH] fix sendfile on 64bit architectures · ef7df33c
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
      
      sys_sendfile has a hardcoded 2GB limit.  64bit architectures should
      probably always use sys_sendfile64() in their native system tables, because
      for them sizeof(off_t) == sizeof(loff_t).  This patch does this.  It seemed
      easier to just change the 64bit entry tables instead of fixing up all the
      emulation layers to do 2GB checks on their own.
      
      I changed all 64bit architectures except for parisc64, which seemed to
      already have a sendfile64.

      Older gcc's don't like that dimensionless array.  Remove it in favour of a
      pointer to the data.
