      [PATCH] Request queue micropatch · 503be986
      Jonathan Corbet authored
      FYI, I have gotten some most strange results with the equivalent of:
      
           request_queue_t *q = kmalloc(...);
           blk_init_queue(q, ...)
      
      The problem turns out to be that q->backing_dev_info.memory_backed is not
      initialized, leaving it to be whatever was there before.  The end result is
      that my "driver" never saw write requests, but reads came through fine.
      Took a while to figure out that one...
      
      Here's the fix, for what it's worth.  (I had, BTW, tried just zeroing the
      whole structure in blk_init_queue(), but that makes IDE oops at boot - it
      sets q->queuedata early).

      [PATCH] posix-timers-cleanup-2.5.65-A5 · 068130cf
      Ingo Molnar authored
      This is a pure identity cleanup:
      
       - coding style fixes (whitespace, code, comment, line length cleanups)
       - remove dead code
       - simplify constructs, make code more readable

      [PATCH] devfs_mk_dir simplification · 3736e632
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      All arguments except the name are unused - remove them and make the
      name printf-like to avoid a few snprintf in the surrounding code.
      
      (also fixes compilation to due a superflous endif in dvb core)

      [PATCH] bring back Al's devfs changes in dv1394 · 5e017acf
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      Needed to get the only callder of devfs_mk_dir where the first argument
      is not NULL back in shape.  Also a nice code cleanup..
