Combine the two initialisation functions, allow SA1111 to be built
as a module, and remove a redundant SA1111 function prototype.

This the the resubmit of the flash partition changes for SIMpad.



Two versions one for cramfs one for all jffs2 and also the SIM has two banks instead of one even if they're next to each other...

devfs_handle is not used any more.

My fault.  Fix for broken aarp.c which got an extra closing parenthesis.

<linux/interrupt.h> uses barrier() but does not include <linux/kernel.h>.

Whitespace cleanup (mostly deleting trailing whitespace).

This patch introduces a 1GB stack size limit for stack-grows-up (ie
PA-RISC), as discussed previously.

Dont print the contents of the initramfs, for any decent sized cpio it will
overflow the kernel ring buffer. 

Also relax permissions on /dev (755 not 700).

Set correct permissions on initramfs directories and special files. We dont
want to obey the umask here, so do the same thing we do on normal files -
call sys_chmod.

tty_register_driver already calls tty_register_device so there is no need
to do it in hvc_console. Besides, it oopses when we do that.

Thanks to Stephen Hemminger for pointing out how obsolete modules.txt is.

modules.txt contains mainly ancient information which is replicated
in the kconfig help message, README, makefile.txt or the modprobe manual
page.  The only part which is not covered elsewhere is the "building
external modules" which is still being debated (and belongs under the
kbuild docs).  kmod.txt reference removed from index, too.

pci_device_id can not be marked __devinitdata,
was re-added with last update by accident.

This fills in the ELF EI_OSABI field.  This doesn't matter for most
architectures, but PA-RISC uses the Linux flavour of the ABI (since HPUX
uses the None flavour).

Patch by Randolph Chung.

This is a lot better than what is there know.

Compiler warning due to missing equal sign.

From: Andrew Theurer <habanero@us.ibm.com>

This change:
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/diffs/kernel/sched.c@1.202

does not seem to make sense:

#define CAN_MIGRATE_TASK(p,rq,this_cpu)					\
	((!idle || (jiffies - (p)->last_run > cache_decay_ticks)) &&    \
		!task_running(rq, p) &&					\
			cpu_isset(this_cpu, (p)->cpus_allowed))

It should be just the opposite; an idle cpu should be able to have a more
aggressive steal, and a busy cpu should not.

From: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com>

The new locking in the random driver is consuming 60% of CPU resources in
Anton's monster power5 boxes.


Basically, when the primary pool is 7/8th full, we shut off the firehose
and go into a trickle mode to keep the pool fresh.  Saves CPU for everyone
and should make the contention drop off the charts too (though the trickle
factor might need adjusting again for Origin-class machines).

I was compiling for my plain 'ol PC, and was getting unresolved symbols
for get_memcfg_from_srat() and get_zholes_size().  The CONFIG_NUMA
definition right now allows it to be turned on for plain old X86_PC. 
Does anyone know why this is? 

depends on SMP && HIGHMEM64G &&
          (X86_PC || X86_NUMAQ || X86_GENERICARCH ||
                  (X86_SUMMIT && ACPI && !ACPI_HT_ONLY))

In any case, the summit code incorrectly assumes in at least 2 places
that NUMA && !NUMAQ means summit.  Someone was evidently trying to cover
the generic subarch case, but that's already taken care of by the lovely
config system and CONFIG_ACPI_SRAT.  This patch fixes those assumptions
and adds a nice little warning for people that try to #include srat.h
without having srat support turned on.

The mwave driver uses a user space daemon for some modem operations. The
user space daemon calls ioctl(,IOCTL_MW_GET_IPC), and the driver returns
after an interrupt arrived. The actual wait used
interruptible_sleep_on(), which can lead to lost wakeups. A local 
spinlock on the stack is used to close that race, but this is broken on 
SMP, perhaps even with preempt.

The attached patch fixes that by switching to the normal 
add_wait_queue/test_if_race_occured/schedule/remove_wait_queue sequence.

ext3 has fancy test harness code which allows you to simulate crashes (for
testing recovery).  It will make the underlying disk start ignoring writes a
specified number of seconds after the mount.

It's inoperative without an additional offline patch anyway, and it's doing
hacky things which scared Al.  So kill it; I'll maintain it in the separate
ext3 debug patch.

There is some inconsistency within lib/inflate.c and its users about
whether the error message text or the error() function should provide
the '\n'.

This patch tries to make everyone consistent - by removing the
newline from all message texts, and adding one to the only error()
function which did not provide it (in init/do_mounts_rd.c).

The remap_file_pages system call with MAP_NONBLOCK flag does not
install file-ptes when the required pages are not found in the
page cache. Modify the populate functions to install file-ptes
if the mapping is non-linear and the required pages are not found
in the page cache.

Patch is for test4-mm6. Compiles and boots. Patch tested using the
programs at:

d_delete() calls dentry_iput() after releasing the per dentry lock.  This
can race with __d_lookup and lead to situation where we can make dentry
negative with ref count > 1.  The following patch makes dentry_iput() to
hold per dentry lock till d_inode is NULL and dentry has been removed from
d_alias list.

This patch against current bk makes the recently added SELinux boot
parameter feature a configurable option, and enables SELinux by default
when selected.  These changes were made following feedback including 
discussion on the SELinux list.

The rationale for the changes is to allow SELinux to be be configured and
enabled unconditionally.  If the boot parameter option is selected, then
SELinux is now enabled unless selinux=0 is specified at the kernel command
line.

Earlier patch wasn't correct especially in the !CONFIG_SCSI_IZIP_EPP16
case, reading all uses of this array (IMM_MODE_STRING is used to print the
corresponding string in printks).

If I'm not misunderstanding it, CONFIG_SCSI_IZIP_EPP16 means "use 16bit 
even when 32bit is requested".

It seems the right solution is

static char *IMM_MODE_STRING[] =
{
        [IMM_AUTODETECT] = "Autodetect",
        [IMM_NIBBLE]     = "SPP",
        [IMM_PS2]        = "PS/2",
        [IMM_EPP_8]      = "EPP 8 bit",
        [IMM_EPP_16]     = "EPP 16 bit",
#ifdef CONFIG_SCSI_IZIP_EPP16
        [IMM_EPP_32]     = "EPP 16 bit",
#else
        [IMM_EPP_32]     = "EPP 32 bit",
#endif
        [IMM_UNKNOWN]    = "Unknown",
};

The SuSE kernels place their ikconfig info at /proc/config.gz: in a
different place, and compressed.  We thought it was a good idea to do it
that way in 2.6 as well.

- gzip the /proc config file, put it in /proc/config.gz;

- Based on a SuSE patch by Oliver Xymoron <oxymoron@waste.org>, which was
  derived from a patch by Nicholas Leon <nicholas@binary9.net>

- change /proc/ikconfig/built_with to /proc/config_build_info;

- cleanup ikconfig init/exit entry points (static, __init, __exit);

- Makefile help from Sam Ravnborg;

ikconfig cleanup
EDESC
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>

Simplify and cleanup the code:
	- use single interface to seq_file where possible
	- don't need to do as much of the /proc interface, only read
	- use copy_to_user to avoid char at a time copy
	- remove unneccesary globals
	- use const char[] rather than const char * where possible.

Didn't change the version since interface doesn't change.
