      [PATCH] PPC64: iSeries virtual ethernet transmit errors · 83615b9d
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@au1.ibm.com>
      
      This patch stops the iseries_veth driver trying to send every packet to too
      many logical partitions.  Consequently, the number of transmit errors falls to
      (about) zero from a very large number.  This should also improve performance a
      bit as the driver is no longer doing 31 extra skb_clone()s and skb_free()s for
      each packet.

      [PATCH] PPC32: Get full register set on bad kernel accesses · 7495a2b5
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
      
      At present on ppc32, if the kernel accesses a bad address and causes an
      oops, or drops into the xmon debugger, we only have the contents of the
      volatile registers available to print.  The reason is that we only save the
      volatile registers on entry for a page fault.
      
      This patch restructures the code a bit so that if do_page_fault()
      determines that the page fault is caused by a bad kernel access, it returns
      to the caller, which then saves the full register set into the exception
      frame before calling bad_page_fault().  This way we get the full set of
      registers printed in the oops message.

      [PATCH] blk_run_page() race fix · 66a759eb
      Andrew Morton authored
      blk_run_page() is incorrectly using page->mapping, which makes it racy against
      removal from swapcache.
      
      Make block_sync_page() use page_mapping(), and remove bkl_run_page(), which
      only had one caller.

      [PATCH] system_state splitup · bf7c3d2d
      Andrew Morton authored
      Split the system_state state `SYSTEM_SHUTDOWN' into SYSTEM_HALT,
      SYSTEM_POWER_OFF and SYSTEM_RESTART and export system_state to modules.
      
      This allows driver shutdown routines to know why they are being shutdown.  The
      IDE subsystem wants this so that it knows to not spin the disks down across a
      reboot.

      [PATCH] alpha fp-emu vs module refcounting · 164e430f
      Richard Henderson authored
      From: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru>
      
      This allows building the math-emu code as a module only when
      CONFIG_SMP is not set. The fp trap handler cannot be preempted
      on a single-CPU (as CONFIG_PREEMPT is not going to be supported
      on alpha), so the module can be safely unloaded at any time.

      [PATCH] Fix reiserfs inode size update race · 77124e4c
      Chris Mason authored
      reiserfs_file_write unlocks the pages it operated on before updating
      i_size.  This can lead to races with writepage, who checks i_size when
      deciding how much of the file to zero out.
      
      This patch also replaces SetPageReferenced with mark_page_accessed() in
      reiserfs_file_write
      
      This was verified to fix the BitKeeper data corruption problems that
      Steven Cole has been debugging, where concurrent writes to a file and
      writebacks to disk would cause zeroes in the file when CONFIG_PREEMPT
      was enabled.

      [PATCH] ARM/ARM26 IDE cleanups · 4b3b8ee5
      Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz authored
      - clear hwif->hw in setup-pci.c before using it
      
      - fix arch/arm/Kconfig to allow IDE only on platforms supporting it
      
      - introduce IDE_ARCH_OBSOLETE_INIT and ide_default_io_ctl() so
        we can use generic ide_init_hwif_ports() and kill no longer needed
        <asm-arm/arch-*/ide.h> (leave broken lh7a40x and sa1100 versions)
      
      Cross-compile tested on ARM.

      [PATCH] add default ARM/ARM26 IDE host driver · 20ebd12c
      Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz authored
      Add drivers/ide/arm/ide_arm.c for simple default IDE interfaces
      and clean obsolete ide_init_default_hwifs() implementations
      in asm-arm/arch-{cl7500,rpc,shark}/ide.h and asm-arm26/ide.h.
      
      This allows us to kill ide_init_default_hwifs() completely
      in the next patch (because lh7a40x and sa1100 are broken).
      
      Cross-compile tested on ARM.
