1a87d9425e [PATCH] LED Class support for Soekris net48xx
Add LED Class device support for the Soekris net48xx Error LED.  Tested
only on a net4801, but should work on a net4826 as well.  I'd love to find
a way of detecting a Soekris net48xx device but there is no DMI or any
Soekris-specific PCI devices.

06c67befee [PATCH] make valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() take a pfn
Newer ARMs have a 40 bit physical address space, but mapping physical
memory above 4G needs a special page table format which we (currently?) do
not use for userspace mappings, so what happens instead is that mapping an
address >= 4G will happily discard the upper bits and wrap.

There is a valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() arch hook where we could check for
>= 4G addresses and deny the mapping, but this hook takes an unsigned long
address:

	static inline int valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(unsigned long addr, size_t size);

And drivers/char/mem.c:mmap_mem() calls it like this:

	static int mmap_mem(struct file * file, struct vm_area_struct * vma)
	{
		size_t size = vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start;

		if (!valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT, size))

So that's not much help either.

This patch makes the hook take a pfn instead of a phys address.

49c0dab7e6 [PATCH] Fix and enable EDAC sysfs operation
When EDAC was first introduced into the kernel it had a sysfs interface,
but due to some problems it was disabled in 2.6.16 and remained disabled in
2.6.17.

With feedback, several of the control and attribute files of that interface
had some good constructive feedback.  PCI Blacklist/Whitelist was a major
set which has design issues and it has been removed in this patch.  Instead
of storing PCI broken parity status in EDAC, it has been moved to the
pci_dev structure itself by a previous PCI patch.  A future patch will
enable that feature in EDAC by utilizing the pci_dev info.

The sysfs is now enabled in this patch, with a minimal set of control and
attribute files for examining EDAC state and for enabling/disabling the
memory and PCI operations.

The Documentation for EDAC has also been updated to reflect the new state
of EDAC operation.

aceb343464 [PATCH] uml: timer initialization cleanup
This cleans up the mess that is the timer initialization.  There used to be
two timer handlers - one that basically ran during delay loop calibration and
one that handled the timer afterwards.  There were also two sets of timer
initialization code - one that starts in user code and calls into the kernel
side of the house, and one that starts in kernel code and calls user code.

This eliminates one timer handler and consolidates the two sets of
initialization code.

598d188af1 [PATCH] uml: clean up address space limits code
I was looking at the code of the UML and more precisely at the functions
set_task_sizes_tt and set_task_sizes_skas.  I noticed that these 2 functions
take a paramater (arg) which is not used : the function is always called with
the value 0.

I suppose that this value might change in the future (or even can be
configured), so I added a constant in mem_user.h file.

Also, I rounded CONFIG_HOST_TASk_SIZE to a 4M.

Further changes:

 (*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're
     unsigned long already).

 (*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting
     the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise
     them back together.

 (*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was
     actually allocated for the stack.

 (*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will
     not be supported in ELF-FDPIC for the foreseeable future.

21ff821630 [PATCH] NOMMU: Fix execution off of ramfs with mmap()
Fix execution through the FDPIC binfmt of programs stored on ramfs by
preventing the ramfs mmap() returning successfully on a private mapping of
a ramfs file.  This causes NOMMU mmap to make a copy of the mapped portion
of the file and map that instead.

This could be improved by granting direct mapping access to read-only
private mappings for which the data is stored on a contiguous run of pages.
 However, this is only likely to be the case if the file was extended with
truncate before being written.

ramfs is left to map the file directly for shared mappings so that SYSV IPC
and POSIX shared memory both still work.

9dec17eb57 [PATCH] FRV: Fix FRV arch compile errors
Fix some FRV arch compile errors, including:

 (*) Marking nr_kernel_pages as __meminitdata so that references to it end up
     being properly calculated rather than being assumed to be in the small
     data section (and thus calculated wrt the GP register).  Not doing this
     causes the linker to emit errors as the offset is too big to fit into the
     load instruction.

 (*) Move pm_power_off into an unconditionally compiled .c file as it's now
     unconditionally accessed.

 (*) Declare frv_change_cmode() in a header file rather than in a .c file, and
     declare it asmlinkage.

b6174df5ee [PATCH] mmap zero-length hugetlb file with PROT_NONE to protect a hugetlb virtual area
Sometimes, applications need below call to be successful although
"/mnt/hugepages/file1" doesn't exist.

fd = open("/mnt/hugepages/file1", O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0755);
*addr = mmap(NULL, 0x1024*1024*256, PROT_NONE, 0, fd, 0);

As for regular pages (or files), above call does work, but as for huge
pages, above call would fail because hugetlbfs_file_mmap would fail if
(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE) && len > inode->i_size).

This capability on huge page is useful on ia64 when the process wants to
protect one area on region 4, so other threads couldn't read/write this
area.  A famous JVM (Java Virtual Machine) implementation on IA64 needs the
capability.

d6b7d3b620 [PATCH] usb-storage: wait for URB to complete
We all failed to notice that Franck's recent update to usb-storage allowed
an URB to complete after its context data was no longer valid.  This patch
(as746) makes the driver wait for the URB to complete whenever there's a
timeout.

Although timeouts in usb-storage are relatively uncommon, they do occur.
Without this patch the code in 2.6.18-rc1 will fault within an interrupt
handler, which is not nice at all.

82081797b7 [PATCH] pci: initialize struct pci_dev.error_state
The pci channel state is currently uninitialized, thus there are two ways
of indicating that "everything's OK": 0 and 1.  This is a bit of a burden.

If a devce driver wants to check if the pci channel is in a working or a
disconnected state, the driver writer must perform checks similar to

   if((pdev->error_state != 0) &&
      (pdev->error_state != pci_channel_io_normal)) {
         whatever();
   }

which is rather akward.  The first check is needed because stuct pci_dev is
inited to all-zeros.  The scond is needed because the error recovery will
set the state to pci_channel_io_normal (which is not zero).

This patch fixes this awkwardness.

e01af0384f [PATCH] powermac: Combined fixes for backlight code
This patch fixes several problems:
- pmac_backlight_key() is called under interrupt context, and therefore
  can't use mutexes or semaphores, so defer the backlight level for
  later, as it's not critical (original code by Aristeu S. Rozanski F.
  <aris@valeta.org>).
- Add exports for functions that might be called from modules
- Fix Kconfig depdencies on PMAC_BACKLIGHT.
- Fix locking issues on calls from inside the driver (reported by
  Aristeu S. Rozanski F., too)
- Fix wrong calculation of backlight values in some of the drivers
- Replace pmac_backlight_key_up/down by inline functions
