This patch prevents /proc/bus/pnp/devices from requesting on-boot node
information.  Dynamic information is used instead.

The ASUS p4p800 motherboard's BIOS has a broken PnPBIOS implementation.  This 
patch will disable PnPBIOS support if this hardware is detected by DMI.

This patch ensures the proper count is returned in pnp_set_current_resources.

This patch fixes a bug in pnp_auto_config_dev in which it wouldn't always report 
allocation failures.  It also corrects the return codes.

This patch fixes the unknown tag warning by adding support for the asci text 
tag.

The RCU code was missing cpus_empty() in one place, required with large
cpumasks.

Fix a corruption bug, we were copying too much information back off
the signal frame.

While in the area help with gccs sign extension optimisation problems
and convert some things to long. (Saves about 30 instructions in signal.c)

Merged in 2.4, and various vendor kernels..

  iDefense reported a buffer overflow flaw in the ISO9660 filesystem code.
  An attacker could create a malicious filesystem in such a way that they
  could gain root privileges if that filesystem is mounted. The Common
  Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name
  CAN-2004-0109 to this issue.

Ernie Petrides came up with the following patch which I fixed up a slight
reject in to apply to 2.6. Otherwise, unchanged from the 2.4 patch.

Various fixes and cleanups for x86-64. 

 - Update defconfig
 - Fix some problems in ROM resource scanning (Rene Herman) 
 - Initialize APIC id of CPU 0 (Venkatesh Pallipadi)
 - Always enable swiotlb for GART_IOMMU
 - Fix compilation without IOMMU_GART
 - Remove nodes_present; use standard node_online_map instead.
   This also fixes a bug with no memory on node 0.
 - Switch node<->cpu mapping to arrays. This fixes some awkward
   special cases with no nodes and empty nodes. 
 - Move K8 fallback node setup to common code
 - Eliminate old fake_node.
 - Fix wrong fields in MCE handling (Marc Bevand)
 - Make pci_dma_consistent behave more similar to i386 to fix Alsa

2.4 already had this fixed, but uses a somewhat larger value to clip at.
For uniformity sake, perhaps they should be the same?  Patch below makes
it match 2.4-bk

The patch showed up in Linus' tree last night breaks the
"generic_defconfig" build for ia64.

Fix it by adding the NR_VECTORS device to ia64.

It should be unconditional.

When I converted journal_write_metadata_buffer() to kmap_atomic() I screwed
up the handling of the copyout buffers - we're currently writing four zeroes
into the user's page rather than into the data which is to be written to the
journal (oops).

Net effect: any block which starts with 0xC03B3998 gets scribbled on in
data=journal mode.

ide_ioreg_t is deprecated and hasn't been used by IDE driver for some time.
Use unsigned long directly on alpha, arm26, arm, mips, parisc, ppc64 and sh.

asm-ia64/ide.h (ide_ioreg_t is unsigned short) and asm-m68knommu/ide.h
(broken - ide_ioreg_t is not defined) are the only users of ide_ioreg_t left.

Use it on all archs which define ide_ioreg_t to unsigned long.

Disable code doing outb() without any locking in /proc handler.
Otherwise 'cat /proc/ide/hpt366' crashes if done during I/O.

Noticed by John Stoffel <stoffel@lucent.com>.

Apparently some IDE drives (e.g. a pile of 80 GB ST380020ACE drives I have
access to) advertise to support LBA48, but don't, causing kernels that support
LBA48 (i.e. anything newer than 2.4.18, including 2.4.25 and 2.6.4) to fail on
them.  Older kernels (including 2.2.20 on the Debian woody CDs) work fine.

Check for id->lba_capacity_2 being non-zero in idedisk_supports_lba48().

The driver was copied from the very-buggy r8169 (pre-Francois),
and is for hardware that isn't even out of the lab yet.

The irq handler must not return 1 when the status register is null
during the firt iteration.

If the pcnet32 interface is not up, running the loopback test may hang or
crash the system.  This patch provided by Jim Lewis fixes that problem.
Tested on ia32 and ppc systems.

Some LOM implementation of our controllers pass IEEE tests (Tx 
distortion/Symmetry) while operating in Class A mode rather than in
class AB mode.
