17be2d2b1c sh: Add maple bus support for the SEGA Dreamcast.
The Maple bus is SEGA's proprietary serial bus for peripherals
(keyboard, mouse, controller etc). The bus is capable of some
(limited) hotplugging and operates at up to 2 M/bits.

Drivers of one sort or another existed/exist for 2.4 and a rudimentary
port, which didn't support the 2.6 device driver model was also in
existence.

This driver - for the bus logic itself and for the keyboard (other
drivers will follow) are based on the code and concepts of those old
drivers but have lots of completely rewritten parts.

I have the maple bus code as a built in now as that seems the sane and
rational way to handle something like that - you either want the bus
or you don't.

68362e0857 serial: sh-sci: kgdb console build fixes.
The kgdb console code requires uart_set_options() and friends, which
are only provided by the serial core when console support is enabled.
These were sitting under CONFIG_SH_KGDB and resulted in a link error
when console support wasn't enabled, work that by rolling the console
routines under CONFIG_SH_KGDB_CONSOLE, which they should have been
all along.

123f5f1886 fb: pvr2fb: Shared IRQ for dreamcast pvr2.
The maple bus driver (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/4/165) uses hardware
synchronisation between the maple bus and the VBLANK to poll the maple
bus. This patch makes the interrupt shareable.

By definition the interrupt is for both devices.

ad89f87a84 rtc: rtc-sh: Support 4-digit year on SH7705/SH7710/SH7712.
All SH-4 parts have a 4-digit year, while the SH-3 parts typically
only use a 2-digit one. The SH7705, SH7710, and SH7712 SH-3 parts
however opted to extend it to 4-digit and still look and act like
an SH-3 RTC in all other ways.

This adds a capability flag (RTC_CAP_4_DIGIT_YEAR) that these
corner-case CPU subtypes can set in their platform data and cleans
up some of the ifdef mess in the driver as a result.

75e806838a sky2: receive FIFO checking
A driver writer from another operating system hinted that
the versions of Yukon 2 chip with rambuffer (EC and XL) have
a hardware bug that if the FIFO ever gets completely full it
will hang. Sounds like a classic ring full vs ring empty wrap around
bug.

As a workaround, use the existing watchdog timer to check for
ring full lockup.

be7963b7e7 ieee1394: ohci1394: fix initialization if built non-modular
Initialization of ohci1394 was broken according to one reporter if the
driver was statically linked, i.e. not built as loadable module.  Dmesg:

  PCI: Device 0000:02:07.0 not available because of resource collisions
  ohci1394: Failed to enable OHCI hardware.

This was reported for a Toshiba Satellite 5100-503.  The cause is commit
8df4083c52 in Linux 2.6.19-rc1 which only
served purposes of early remote debugging via FireWire.  This
functionality is better provided by the currently out-of-tree driver
ohci1394_earlyinit.  Reversal of the commit was OK'd by Andi Kleen.

f3d5e3a415 [PPP] L2TP: Fix skb handling in pppol2tp_xmit
This patch makes pppol2tp_xmit call skb_cow_head so that we don't modify
cloned skb data.  It also gets rid of skb2 we only need to preserve the
original skb for congestion notification, which is only applicable for
ppp_async and ppp_sync.

The other semantic change made here is the removal of socket accounting
for data tranmitted out of pppol2tp_xmit.  The original code leaked any
existing socket skb accounting.  We could fix this by dropping the
original skb owner.  However, this is undesirable as the packet has not
physically left the host yet.

In fact, all other tunnels in the kernel do not account skb's passing
through to their own socket.  In partciular, ESP over UDP does not do
so and it is the closest tunnel type to PPPoL2TP.  So this patch simply
removes the socket accounting in pppol2tp_xmit.  The accounting still
applies to control packets of course.

I've also added a reminder that the outgoing checksum here doesn't work.
I suppose existing deployments don't actually enable checksums.

4191ba26da mspec: handle shrinking virtual memory areas
The shrinking of a virtual memory area that is mmap(2)'d to a memory
special file (device drivers/char/mspec.c) can cause a panic.

If the mapped size of the vma (vm_area_struct) is very large, mspec allocates
a large vma_data structure with vmalloc(). But such a vma can be shrunk by
an munmap(2).  The current driver uses the current size of each vma to
deduce whether its vma_data structure was allocated by kmalloc() or vmalloc().
So if the vma was shrunk it appears to have been allocated by kmalloc(),
and mspec attempts to free it with kfree().  This results in a panic.

This patch avoids the panic (by preserving the type of the allocation) and
also makes mspec work correctly as the vma is split into pieces by the
munmap(2)'s.

All vma's derived from such a split vma share the same vma_data structure that
represents all the pages mapped into this set of vma's.  The mpec driver
must be made capable of using the right portion of the structure for each
member vma.  In other words, it must index into the array of page addresses
using the portion of the array that represents the current vma. This is
enabled by storing the vma group's vm_start in the vma_data structure.

The shared vma_data's are not protected by mm->mmap_sem in the fork() case
so the reference count is left as atomic_t.

Currently the rtc driver, rtc-ds1742.c uses an unsigned long to store the

resource_size_t.  Tested on Ebony (PPC440) (with additional patches to
instantiate the ds1742 platform device appropriately).

ff80f1370f ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED option
Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.

CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.

Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games.  And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.

This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:

Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.

It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.

The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface.  To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.

The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well.  thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs.  This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

2a38b775b7 [PPP] generic: Fix receive path data clobbering & non-linear handling
This patch adds missing pskb_may_pull calls to deal with non-linear
packets that may arrive from pppoe or pppol2tp.

It also copies cloned packets before writing over them.

7b797d5b15 [PPP] generic: Call skb_cow_head before scribbling over skb
It's rude to write over data that other people are still using.  So call
skb_cow_head before PPP proceeds to modify the skb data.

d9cc20484e [NET] skbuff: Add skb_cow_head
This patch adds an optimised version of skb_cow that avoids the copy if
the header can be modified even if the rest of the payload is cloned.

This can be used in encapsulating paths where we only need to modify the
header.  As it is, this can be used in PPPOE and bridging.
