6b8b3e8a8b [PATCH] md: make sure md bitmap updates are flushed when array is stopped.
The recent change to never ignore the bitmap, revealed that the bitmap isn't
begin flushed properly when an array is stopped.

We call bitmap_daemon_work three times as there is a three-stage pipeline for
flushing updates to the bitmap file.

e3b9703e27 [PATCH] md: yet another attempt to get bitmap-based resync to do the right thing in all cases...
Firstly, R1BIO_Degraded was being set in a number of places in the resync
code, but is never used there, so get rid of those settings.

Then: When doing a resync, we want to clear the bit in the bitmap iff the
array will be non-degraded when the sync has completed.  However the current
code would clear the bitmap if the array was non-degraded when the resync
*started*, which obviously isn't right (it is for 'resync' but not for
'recovery' - i.e.  rebuilding a failed drive).

This patch calculated 'still_degraded' and uses the to tell bitmap_start_sync
whether this sync should clear the corresponding bit.

193f1c9315 [PATCH] md: always honour md bitmap being read from disk
The code currently will ignore the bitmap if the array seem to be in-sync.
This is wrong if the array is degraded, and probably wrong anyway.  If the
bitmap says some chunks are not in in-sync, and the superblock says everything
IS in sync, then something is clearly wrong, and it is safer to trust the
bitmap.

4dcef52400 [PATCH] v4l: oopsfix for BTTV on badly behaved PCI chipsets
no_overlay bttv parameter implemented to fix OOPS on some PCI chipsets
(like some VIA) with these behaviors:

1) If pci_quicks does identify the chip as having troubles to
   handle PCI2PCI transfers, no_overlay defaults to 1. The user may force
   it to 0, to reenable (not recommended).

2) For newer chipsets not blacklisted, no_overlay=1 is provided as a
   workaround until PCI chipset included on /drivers/pci/quirks.c

1260f801b4 [PATCH] Keys: Fix key management syscall interface bugs
This fixes five bugs in the key management syscall interface:

 (1) add_key() returns 0 rather than EINVAL if the key type is "".

     Checking the key type isn't "" should be left to lookup_user_key().

 (2) request_key() returns ENOKEY rather than EPERM if the key type begins
     with a ".".

     lookup_user_key() can't do this because internal key types begin with a
     ".".

 (3) Key revocation always returns 0, even if it fails.

 (4) Key read can return EAGAIN rather than EACCES under some circumstances.

     A key is permitted to by read by a process if it doesn't grant read
     access, but it does grant search access and it is in the process's
     keyrings. That search returns EAGAIN if it fails, and this needs
     translating to EACCES.

 (5) request_key() never adds the new key to the destination keyring if one is
     supplied.

     The wrong macro was being used to test for an error condition: PTR_ERR()
     will always return true, whether or not there's an error; this should've
     been IS_ERR().

c36f19e02a [PATCH] Remove suspend() calls from shutdown path
This removes the calls to device_suspend() from the shutdown path that
were added sometime during 2.6.13-rc*.  They aren't working properly on
a number of configs (I got reports from both ppc powerbook users and x86
users) causing the system to not shutdown anymore.

I think it isn't the right approach at the moment anyway.  We have
already a shutdown() callback for the drivers that actually care about
shutdown and the suspend() code isn't yet in a good enough shape to be
so much generalized.  Also, the semantics of suspend and shutdown are
slightly different on a number of setups and the way this was patched in
provides little way for drivers to cleanly differenciate.  It should
have been at least a different message.

For 2.6.13, I think we should revert to 2.6.12 behaviour and have a
working suspend back.

9bbd037589 [PATCH] ARM: 2833/2: Remove support for WDIOF_MAGICCLOSE from sa1100-wdt
Patch from Ian Campbell

On PXA255 there is no way to disable the watchdog. Turning off OIER[E3]
as suggested in the existing comment does not work.

I posted a note to the ARM mailing list a little while ago asking for
opinions from people using SA1100. There was one reponse from Nico who
believes that the SA1100 is the same as the PXA255 in this respect.

You also asked me to involve the watchdog maintainer which I tried to
do but didn't hear anything back. There are only a couple of other
drivers which can't stop the watchdog and there seems to be no
consistancy regarding printing an error etc. I decided to print
something since that matches the case for all the other drivers when
NOWAYOUT is turned on.

Also, I changed the device .name to "watchdog" like most of the other
watchdogs. udev uses it as the device name (by default) and spaces etc.
get in the way.

Superceded 2833/1 because 2.6.13-rc4 caused rejects.

f33ea7f404 [PATCH] fix get_user_pages bug
Checking pte_dirty instead of pte_write in __follow_page is problematic
for s390, and for copy_one_pte which leaves dirty when clearing write.

So revert __follow_page to check pte_write as before, and make
do_wp_page pass back a special extra VM_FAULT_WRITE bit to say it has
done its full job: once get_user_pages receives this value, it no longer
requires pte_write in __follow_page.

But most callers of handle_mm_fault, in the various architectures, have
switch statements which do not expect this new case.  To avoid changing
them all in a hurry, make an inline wrapper function (using the old
name) that masks off the new bit, and use the extended interface with
double underscores.

Yes, we do have a call to do_wp_page from do_swap_page, but no need to
change that: in rare case it's needed, another do_wp_page will follow.

SystemReset, die and called debugger - xmon).   First these CPUs entered
into xmon by IPI callback and then got a soft-reset exception and
re-entered into xmon again. The first CPU which re-entered into xmon got
the output lock and made into xmon successfully without unlocking.
Hence, the next CPU(s) which re-entered into xmon try to acquire a lock
(get_output_lock). Therefore, we can not view state of those CPU(s).

71db63acff [PATCH] increase PCIBIOS_MIN_IO on x86
There is a number of x86 laptops that have some non-PCI IO ports
in the 0x1000-0x1fff range, and it's quite hard to control the correct
order of resource allocation between PCI and other subsystems controlling
these ports. Especially with modular kernel.

So just increase PCIBIOS_MIN_IO to 0x4000 to prevent any new PCI
resource allocations in the problematic range (this limitation must
apply _only_ to the root bus resources - see Linus' change in
pci_bus_alloc_resource).  As PCIBIOS_MIN_IO and PCIBIOS_MIN_CARDBUS_IO
are the same now on i386 and x86-64, we can remove the latter.

688d191821 pci: make bus resource start address override minimum IO address
The reason we have PCIBIOS_MIN_IO and PCIBIOS_MIN_CARDBUS_IO is because
we want to protect badly documented motherboard PCI resources and thus
don't want to allocate new resources in low IO/MEM space.

However, if we have already discovered a PCI bridge with a specified
resource base, that should override that decision.

This change will allow us to move the "careful" region upwards without
resulting in problems allocating resources in low mappings.  This was
brought on by us having allocated a bus resource at 0x1000, conflicting
with a undocumented VAIO Sony PI resources.

f7d1d23c30 [PATCH] Obvious bugfix for yenta resource allocation
Recent changes (well, dating from 12 July) have broken cardbus on my
powerbook: I get 3 messages saying "no resource of type xxx available,
trying to continue", and if I plug in my wireless card, it complains
that there are no resources allocated to the card.  This all worked in
2.6.12.

Looking at the code in yenta_socket.c, function yenta_allocate_res,
it's obvious what is wrong: if we get to line 639 (i.e. there wasn't a
usable preassigned resource), we will always flow through to line 668,
which is the printk that I was seeing, even if a resource was
successfully allocated.  It looks to me as though there should be a
return statement after the two config_writel's in each of the 3
branches of the if statements, so that the function returns after
successfully setting up the resource.

The patch below adds these return statements, and with this patch,
cardbus works on my powerbook once again.

96cd5b0856 [PATCH] ppc64: POWER 4 fails to boot with NUMA
If CONFIG_NUMA is set, some POWER 4 systems will fail to boot.  This is
because of special processing needed to handle invalid node IDs (0xffff) on
POWER 4.  My previous patch to handle memory 'holes' within nodes forgot to
add this special case for POWER 4 in one place.

In reality, I'm not sure that configuring the kernel for NUMA on POWER 4 makes
much sense.  Are there POWER 4 based systems with NUMA characteristics that
are presented by the firmware?  But, distros want one kernel for all systems
so NUMA is on by default in their kernels.  The patch handles those cases.

842bbaaa73 [PATCH] Module per-cpu alignment cannot always be met
The module code assumes noone will ever ask for a per-cpu area more than
SMP_CACHE_BYTES aligned.  However, as these cases show, gcc asks sometimes
asks for 32-byte alignment for the per-cpu section on a module, and if
CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT is 4, we hit that BUG_ON().  This is obviously an
unusual combination, as there have been few reports, but better to warn
than die.

561fb765b9 [PATCH] ppc64: topology API fix
Dont include asm-generic/topology.h unconditionally, we end up overriding
all the ppc64 specific functions when NUMA is on.
