) From: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@in.ibm.com> This patch fixes a minor bug based on Andi Kleen's suggestion. asm's can't be broken in this particular case, hence merging them.

Especially useful when users have booted with 'quiet'. In the regular 'oops' path, we set the console_loglevel before we start spewing debug info, but we can call the backtrace code from other places now too, such as the spinlock debugging code.

dev->get_wireless_stats is deprecated but removing it also removes wireless subdirectory in sysfs. This patch puts it back. akpm: I don't know what's happening here.

Recent X "nv" driver was fixed for various issues with modern 6xxx and 7xxx cards. This patch ports those fixes to nvidiafb. This makes it work fine on the 6600 bundled with the newest G5 macs. I've verified it still works on the 5200FX of the iMacG5. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: "Antonino A.

It seems the "make UID16 support optional" patch was checked when it edited the -tiny tree some time ago, but it wasn't checked whether it still matches the current situation when it was submitted for inclusion in -mm. This patch fixes the following bugs: - ARCH_S390X does no longer exist, nowadays this has to be expressed through (S390 && 64BIT) - in five architecture specific Kconfig files the UID16 options weren't removed Additionally, it changes the fragile negative dependencies of UID16 to positive dependencies (new architectures are more likely to not require UID16 support).

I think it is better to set ->next_pending in the caller, when it is needed. This saves one parameter, and this coincides with cpu_quiet() beahaviour, which sets ->completed = ->cur itself.

The patch changes semaphores that are initialized as locked to complete(). Source: MontaVista Software, Inc. Modified-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> The following patch is from Montavista. I modified it slightly. Semaphores are currently being used where it makes more sense for completions. This patch corrects that.

This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different.

This patch switches XFS over to use the new mutex code directly as opposed to the previous workaround patch I posted earlier that avoided the namespace clash by forcing it back to semaphores.

add the per-arch mutex.h files for the remaining architectures. We default to asm-generic/mutex-dec.h, because that performs quite well on most arches. Arches that do not have atomic decrement/increment instructions should switch to mutex-xchg.h instead. Arches can also provide their own implementation for the mutex fastpath primitives.

Ingo Molnar authored
Add three (generic) mutex fastpath implementations. The mutex-xchg.h implementation is atomic_xchg() based, and should work fine on every architecture. The mutex-dec.h implementation is atomic_dec_return() based - this one too should work on every architecture, but might not perform the most optimally on architectures that have no atomic-dec/inc instructions. The mutex-null.h implementation forces all calls into the slowpath. This is used for mutex debugging, but it can also be used on platforms that do not want (or need) a fastpath at all.
