This just reorganizes some ghastly goto-and-retry-spaghetti in the core of the ext3 block allocator. I wrote this ages ago in preparation for fixing the find_next_usable_block() CPU pigginess problem, but that proved to be quite nontrivial. The patch has been in -mm for a long time and Martin has recently confirmed that it introduces no performance regression in SDET and kernbench.

This one snuck in... - debugging message for ACPI - Intel guys removed it from their 2.4 tree (at my request) - it's point-in-time specific (message becomes nearly useless after ACPI bug fixes) - b/c of the point-in-time issue, it's IMO much more appropriate for a vendor kernel (where the message, I agree, may be helpful) - can potentially mislead users to the correct cause of root mount failure - overall, I disagree with adding messages like this. The number one bug report, by far, for networking drivers is ACPI-related (no interrupts delivered). You don't see me adding "boot with acpi=off" messages to the net subsystem.

it was the same as the old request_region(). Not so.

This is a patch for the video4linux unified zoran driver that has been in the kernel since 2.4.5 or so. It fixes the compile issues in the current 2.6.0-test3 unified zoran driver (current one doesn't compile at all), and also updates its version to what we have in CVS. This adds support for new cards (e.g. LML33R10 from LinuxMediaLabs and DC30+ from Pinnacle), fixes bugs in cards that were already supported and generally improves capture reliability. Changes per file (in detail) are given below. i2c-id.h: add some new IDs for new i2c drivers pci_ids.h: add PCI IDs for each of the supported cards if it has any saa7111.c, saa7110.c, adv7175.c, bt819.c, saa7185.c, bt856.c: update to whatever we've got in our CVS. For most, these are just "easiness" fixes that either add some better debug output, or that make maintainance for both 2.6.x and 2.4.x simpler for me. There's also some specific changes. E.g., in saa7110.c, we enable the VCR mode bits so we get a better image from VCR input. In all of them, we make debugging an insmod option rather than a compile-time option (this makes debugging for users a *lot* easier). Point is that I just want our latest CVS in here. Maintainance is going to be a personal horror-story if it's not. vpx3220.c, saa7114.c, adv7170.c: new i2c ones (for respectively DC10/DC30, LML33R10 and again LML33R10) zr36067.c: removed, the driver is now spread over multiple source files. zoran*.[ch], zr36057.h spread-out source files. Also fixes lots of bugs, can't even start naming them all, you don't want that, neither do I. Just assume that it works better than it used to - it does. Nice things that aren't in the old driver: much more stable, supports DC30+, supports LML33R10, has proper locking/semaphores, supports multiple opens without races now, adapted to new i2c subsystem, v4l2 support, Xv (hardware-scaled) overlay support, and a lot more. Oh, and this one actually compiles. videocodec.[ch], zr360{16,50,60}.[ch]: new sublayer for the driver to unify how we handle the zr36060 chip (DC10(+)/LML33/LML33R10/Buz) and the zr36050/zr36016 (DC30(+)). MAINTAINERS: add me as maintainer (I am). Kconfig: add new cards, plus improve the descriptions. Makefile: d'oh. Zoran: documentation update. Others: I don't think there are any. Greg has gone over the i2c changes a long time ago, he agreed on all of them. Gerd is supposed to take care of the v4l part, he has never complained about any of them. Stability is good, we've fixed most issues (there's still some out there, but nothing serious), lots better than in the old driver. Also, the cards work much better than with the old driver.

This patch brings x86-64 and i386 closer together, eliminating an oops that LTP test ioperm02.c causes on x86-64. An IO port permission bitmap must be followed by an extra 0xff. (Add comments to that effect, to avoid the problem in the future).

link_path_walk() currently treats the special filenames ".", ".." and "/" differently in that it does not call down to the filesystem in order to revalidate the cached dentry, but just assumes that it is fine. For most filesystems this is OK, but it the case of the stateless NFS, this means that it circumvents path staleness detection, and the attribute+data cache revalidation code on such common commands as opendir("."). This change provides a way to do such revalidation for NFS without impacting other filesystems. Note: the failure to revalidate the path here does not result in a call to d_invalidate() unlike (all?) other calls to d_revalidate(). It only results in an ESTALE error being returned to the caller.

Ircomm in 2.6.0-test3 can just set the owner field in the tty structure like other drivers, and not mess with MOD_INC/MOD_DEC.
