The struct device pointer should be used instead.

The ActiveSync USB "protocol" seems to be the same for all WinCE
devices seen so far. So it seems reasonable to pre-emptively support
all devices which work with ActiveSync.

This patch removes a now unnecessary debug line taht broke compilation
when debugging was enabled.

This patch allows the scanner driver to accept devices with more than
one interface. That's needed by some multi-function periphals (e.g.
scanner+printer).

Orginally from Vojtech Pavlik (16th June 2002 via email), to fix my
'broken' USB joypad, Fully tested in both 2.4.x and 2.5.52 (and
2.5.52-bk).

the fast case with a pushf/popf, by having the kernel debug trap
set the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag and causing the return path to dtrt.

boot_cpu_data should contain the common capabilities of all cpus in the
system. identify_cpu [arch/i386/kernel/cpu/common.c] tries to enforce
that. But right now, the SMP trampoline code [arch/i386/kernel/head.S]
overwrites boot_cpu_data when the secondary cpus are started, i.e.
boot_cpu_data contains the capabilities from the last cpu that booted :-(

The attached patch adds a new, __initdata variable for the asm code.

Restore the accidentally dropped code to handle "init=xxx"

This fixes a hang in change_page_attr() that occured with mem=nopentium.

Make sure a non large page kernel mapping is handled correctly.
Previously the page reference counter was handled incorrectly in this
case.

Also hardens change_page_attr against bogus addresses.  You get an
EINVAL now.

"mem=nopentium" would clear the PSE bit in boot_cpu_data, but the CPU
detection later would overwrite it again from CPUID.

The large pages would be correctly disabled, but cpu_has_pse was lying.

This patch makes sure it stays clear when the option is given.

I also took the liberty to remove these obnoxious cpu capability
printks who give no use information (the data can be either gotten
from CPUID in user space in raw form or from /proc/cpuinfo processed)

According to Intel's recommendation, 'rep;nop; should be called before
testing if the lock variable was modified (i.e. rep nop;cmp;jcc). The
current implementation does it the wrong way around: first test, then
wait, then branch. I've asked Asit Mallik from Intel, and he recommended
to change it.

It should be at least consistent: Right now, spinlock uses
'cmp;rep nop;jcc', rwlock uses 'rep nop;cmp;jcc'

This patch (originally from Sergey Vlasov) adds support for scanners
with only one bulk-in endpoint. It's needed by all the GT-6801 based
scanners like the Artec Ultima 2000 or some of the Mustek BearPaws.

This patch adds additional vendor and product ids for Nikon, Mustek,
Plustek, Genius, Epson, Canon, Umax, Hewlett-Packard, Benq, Agfa,
and Minolta scanners. The entries for Benq, Genius and Plustek
scanners have been updated.

I've also increased the version number to 0.4.9 and brought the
version numbers in scanner.c and scanner.h in sync.

I don't know if that problem is resolved, but this patch
makes the question moot by handling an earlier error correctly.

The patch updates an incorrect test, so a short read will now
be treated as one.  Please merge.

This lets storage behave again.  As in, "mkfs -c" then copy
about 8 GB around, then 'dbench'.

device DMA now (see <linux/pci.h> for the compat wrapper).

add dma_ API to mirror pci_ DMA API but phrased to use struct
device instead of struct pci_dev.

Patch from Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

remove unused macro MAP_ALIGN()

From hch.  Nothing is using the memclass() predicate.

They are 260 bytes.  We can get 15 per page without cacheline
alignment.  But we're currently only getting ten per page on P4.

An `ls' in hugetlbfs currently shows all files having zero size.

So, part-cosmetic, part-informative, we here set i_size to represent the
index of the highest present page in the mapping, plus one.

From Rohit Seth

Attached is a patch that passes the correct information back to user
land for number of attachments to shared memory segment.  I could have
done few more changes in a way nattach is getting set for regular cases
now, but just want to limit it at this point.

From Rohit Seth

1) Bug fixes (mainly in the unsuccessful attempts of hugepages).

   i) not modifying the value of key for unsuccessful key
      allocation

   ii) Correct usage of mmap_sem in free_hugepages

   iii) Proper unlocking of key->lock for partial hugepage
        allocations


2) Include the IPC_LOCK for permission to use hugepages via the
   syscall interface.  This brings the syscall interface into line with
   the hugetlbfs interface.

   It also adds permits users who are in the superuser group to
   access hugetlb resources.  This is so that database servers can run
   without elevated permissions.

3) Increment the key_counts during forks to correctly identify the
   number of processes references a key.

This is a forward-port from 2.4.  One of Stephen's recent fixes.  I
managed to merge up only half of it.  Here is the rest.  It should fix
the asserton failure reported by Robert Macaulay
<robert_macaulay@dell.com>

"There was a race window in buffer refiling where we could temporarily
 expose the journal's internal BH_JBDDirect flag as BH_Dirty, which is
 visible to the rest of the VFS.  That doesn't affect the journaling,
 because we hold journal_head locks while the buffer is in this
 transient state, but bdflush can see the buffer and write it out
 unexpectedly, causing ext3 to find the buffer in an unexpected state
 later."

 The fix simply keeps the dirty bits clear during the internal buffer
 processing, restoring the state to the private BH_JBDDirect once
 refiling is complete."
