Patch from Chris Mason <mason@suse.com>

The patch below is against 2.5.59, various forms have been floating
around for a while, and Andrew recently included this fixed version in
2.5.55-mm.  The end result is faster reads and writes for reiserfs.

This adds reiserfs support for readpages, along with a support func in
fs/mpage.c to deal with the reiserfs_get_block call sending back up to
date buffers with packed tails copied into them.

Most of the changes are to reiserfs_writepage, which still had many
2.4isms in the way it started io, dealt with errors and handled the bh
state bits.  I've also added an optimization so it only starts
transactions when we need to copy a packed tail into the btree or fill a
hole, instead of any time reiserfs_writepage hits an unmapped buffer.

Here's the memory leaks patch for acpiphp_glue.c.

The patch is modeled after your method for creating files for usb. It
makes a single file for pci sysfs files (except for pool, which I haven't
touched yet). It also exposes more pci information to User Space
through sysfs. Finally, it removes the dependence on the proc pci code
for sysfs files.

Fixes problems found by the CHECKER program in the pci hotplug drivers

Moved functions from drivers/hotplug/pci_hotplug_util.c to
drivers/pci/hotplug.c, which is a better place for them.

Relies on sysfs_update_file() to be present in the kernel.

Here is a little patch that remove procfs stuff in pci_hotplug_core.c
Remove /proc entry for pci_hotplug_core.

These were pointed out by "dan carpenter" <error27@email.com>
from his smatch tool.

Ok, here's my proposed fix, which appears to work with preempt.  I haven't
tested on non-preempt, nor (obviously since its from me) SMP.  However,
I forsee no problems caused by this change.

release_dev() sets filp->private_data to NULL when the tty layer has
done with the file descriptor.  However, it remains on the tty_files
list until __fput completes.

Add "seqlock" infrastructure for doing low-overhead optimistic reader
locks (writer increments a sequence number, reader verifies that no
writers came in during the critical region, and lots of careful memory
barriers to take care of business).

Make xtime/get_jiffies_64() use this new locking.

Trivial patch from Randy Dunlap <rddunlap@osdl.org> removes some useless
error/retval assignments.

Found by inspection of of the x86_64 gettimeofday.

The problem is that the code always records the maximum value
but it is not reset on the next clock tick.  As written, I see it
keeping the maximum number of microseconds since the last clock tick.

The Stanford Checker identified a memory leak in init/do_mounts.c.

This corrects it.

Defaulting to building modules together with vmlinux when just doing
"make" or "make all" is only a good choice when "CONFIG_MODULES" is set.
