These options are only ever referenced in the defconfigs of various archs
now.

From: Arun Sharma <arun.sharma@intel.com>

The current Linux implementation of shmat() insists on SHMLBA alignment even
when shmflg & SHM_RND == 0.  This is not consistent with the man pages and
the single UNIX spec, which require only a page-aligned address.

However, some architectures require a SHMLBA alignment for correctness in all
cases.  Such architectures use __ARCH_FORCE_SHMLBA.

The following patch bumps the driver version to 2.6.0.  Please apply in

Patch 3 adds all the new official device registrations that weren't already
there.  This brings devices.txt up-to-date with LANANA.

From: "Cagle, John (ISS-Houston)" <john.cagle@hp.com>

Patch 2 fixes some typos in devices.txt and removes ancient devices never
used.  Pretty obvious stuff.

From: "Cagle, John (ISS-Houston)" <john.cagle@hp.com>

Patch 1 cleans up the format by making devices.txt easily parsable.
Mainly this involved adding the word "block" after all the block major
numbers since the previous format didn't include it.

Make the handling of the hugetlb-backed shm file's name counter SMP-safe.

(What stops hugetlb_zero_setup() racing with umount?)

From: "Kenneth Chen" <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com>

Even though there is a CONFIG_MAX_RAW_DEVS option, it doesn't actually
increase the number of raw devices beyond 256 because during the char
registration, it uses the standard register_chrdev() interface which has
hard coded 256 minor in it.  Here is a patch that fix this problem by using
register_chrdev_region() and cdev_(init/add/del) functions.

From: Andy Whitcroft <andyw@uk.ibm.com>

The vsyscall implementation for ia32 provides two different vsyscall pages;
one to use int80 and the other to use sysenter.  Each includes a common
signal trailer.  The kernel requires the alignment of routines in this
trailer be consistent in both copies.  However this is not enforced at
compile time.  Failure to maintain this alignment typically leads to an
obscure SIGSEGV in init during boot.  This critical alignment requirement
is not well documented.

Below is a patch to better document the alignment requirements and to
enforce the requirement.

When I converted the use of PCI_DMA_foo constants to DMA_foo constants, I
forgot that it's PCI_DMA_FROMDEVICE and DMA_FROM_DEVICE.  The following
fixes that.

From: Tom Rini <trini@kernel.crashing.org>

include/asm-ppc/dma-mapping.h was made to be a 'real' header recently and
therefore missed out on the updates that davem did to all of the other
versions.  This updates <asm-ppc/dma-mapping.h> to match what's expected
now.

From: Tom Rini <trini@kernel.crashing.org>

When Dave Miller updated <asm-ppc/pci.h> for the _for_device and _for_cpu
portions of the PCI DMA API, he assumed that on PPC32 consistent_sync*
would also need to be changed for device or cpu.  This is not the case, so
what this does is the pci_*_for_{cpu,device} calls call
consistent_sync{,page} again.

Fix a cut & paste error in forward porting from 2.4, we don't reference

Fix memory corruption in the HT init on x86-64 recently introduced by me.

Fix from from Suresh B. Siddha.

 - Chen Yang's fix to work with NGROUPS

 - Removed InterMezzo from BROKEN state

The proc_rtas_init call in procfs was removed (replaced with an
initcall) but the prototype was still hiding. Kill it.

Tested on Epox 8K9A3+ and 4PCA3+ by Tomi Orava <Tomi.Orava@ncircle.nullnet.fi>.

It was tested by a few people and has been in -mm since 2.6.4-rc2-mm1.

ATAPI multi-lun support has been broken for a long time.

It used to be that "(drive->id->last_id & 0x7) + 1" was used as
shost->max_lun and the "hdXlun=" kernel parameter could be used to
override this value.

However it was far from optimal:
- people played with "hdXlun=" and then complained about multiple instances
  of the same device (most ATAPI drives respond to each LUN)
- probably some devices return 7 not 0 in id->last_id (=> 7 x same device)

This patch from Willem Riede <wrlk@riede.org> fixes it w/o need
for "hdXlun=" option.  It was tested by Willem on ATAPI PD/CD drive.

wait_task_inactive is now only used in two non-time-critical places: the
ptrace code to guarantee a schedule and kthread_bind so we can change
the thread CPU.  Unfortunately with preempt, the code as stands has a
race: we might return because the thread is preempted, not because it
actually reached schedule().  The ptrace code (probably) doesn't care,
but the kthread code does.

This patch simplifies the (now over-optimized) code, and does a yield()
for the preemption case.
