flush_icache_range() is used in two different situation - in binfmt_elf.c & co for user space mappings and module.c for kernel modules. On m68k flush_icache_range() doesn't know which data to flush, as it has separate address spaces and the pointer argument can be valid in either address space. First I considered splitting flush_icache_range(), but this patch is simpler. Setting the correct context gives flush_icache_range() enough information to flush the correct data.

We used to have an iseries specific profiler that used /proc/profile. Now thats gone we can use the generic timer based stuff.

This is a neverending story linux/acpi.h contains empty declarations for acpi_boot_init() & acpi_boot_table_init() but they are nested inside #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI. So we'll have to #ifdef in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c: setup_arch() Signed-off-by: Alexander Nyberg <alexn@telia.com> Cc: "Brown, Len" <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Only the address needs alignment of mask bits, length should work with a relaxed alignment check. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de> [ This is take 2: make the length check be for 16-byte alignment, not just word alignment. That should hopefully keep everybody happy, while still allowing CD writing with DMA ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

When I sent in the patch adding the code for the kernel to tell the firmware about its capabilities on pSeries machines, I included the function to give the capabilities to firmware but somehow forgot the hunk that adds the call to the new function. This patch adds the call. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This patch adds is_multicast_ether_addr() to go along with is_valid_ether_addr() and friends. It then changes is_valid_ether_addr() to use the new macro, and fixes up the comment on that function to move implementation details out of the API doco.

Add tg3_nvram_lock() and tg3_nvram_unlock() calls around tg3_halt_cpu(). It is possible that the bootcode may be loading code from nvram during this call and stopping the cpu without getting the lock may cause uncompleted nvram data to be left in the nvram data register. Subsequent calls to read/write nvram data will fail. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This improves the bridge local receive path by avoiding going through another softirq. The bridge receive path is already being called from a netif_receive_skb() there is no point in going through another receiveq round trip. Recursion is limited because bridge can never be a port of a bridge so handle_bridge() always returns. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Avoid poisoning of the bridge forwarding table by frames that have been dropped by filtering. This prevents spoofed source addresses on hostile side of bridge from causing packet leakage, a small but possible security risk.

The call to io_block_mapping was creating an invalid BAT entry because the value of BCSR_SIZE (32K) is too small to be used in a BAT (128K min). This change removes the io_block_mapping call since these registers can easily be mapped using ioremap at the point of use.
