      [PATCH] MODULE_ALIAS() in char devices · 95759639
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
      
      Previously, default aliases were hardwired into modutils.  Now they should
      be inside the modules, using MODULE_ALIAS() (they will be overridden by any
      user alias).

      [PATCH] might_sleep() improvements · 5eebb6f2
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Mitchell Blank Jr <mitch@sfgoth.com>
      
      This patch makes the following improvements to might_sleep():
      
       o Add a "might_sleep_if()" macro for when we might sleep only if some
         condition is met.  It's a bit tidier, and has an unlikely() in it.
      
       o Add might_sleep checks to skb_share_check() and skb_unshare() which
         sometimes need to allocate memory.
      
       o Make all architectures call might_sleep() in both down() and
         down_interruptible().  Before only ppc, ppc64, and i386 did this check.
         (sh did the check on down() but not down_interruptible())

      [PATCH] 8250_acpi taints kernel · 0dabddb1
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor_core@ameritech.net>
      
      8250_acpi module does not have MODULE_LICENSE specified.  8250_gsc does not
      have it either but as I can't compile it I did not touch it.

      [PATCH] elevator insertion fixes · 1cfcda6a
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Nick Piggin <piggin@cyberone.com.au>
      
      This fixes a bug in deadline and AS that causes insert_here to be ignored on
      blk_fs_requests. This has been causing problems with SCSI requeueing code.
      It makes elevator insertion more correct as advertised wrt insert_here and
      REQ_SOFTBARRIER.
      
      It also fixes a buglet in the as_requeue code where the request wasn't being
      put into the front of the list (in rare cases).

      [PATCH] add config option for qla1280 SCSI MMIO/ioport · c12f96f2
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Andrey Panin <pazke@donpac.ru>
      
      Add a config option which allows ioport/mmio selection for QLA1280 SCSI
      driver.
      
      With this patch applied QLA1280 can be used on Visws again.

      [PATCH] Fix rtc symbol clash and HPET config problems · 56928c85
      Andrew Morton authored
      The new HPET RTC emulation code uses a function in rtc.c, get_rtc_time().
      
      So that function was made non-static.  Problem is, the same function name is
      used elsewhere by some architectures, so there will be linkage problems.
      
      And rtc_get_time() is used too, so I renamed it to rtc_get_rtc_time().
      
      Also, the HPET code was setting CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC by hand in a header
      file.  Fix it to use the Kconfig system properly.

      [PATCH] convert /proc/stat to seq_file · b465fc74
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: "Randy.Dunlap" <rddunlap@osdl.org>
      
      Anton needs this for ppc64.  Things overflow with a huge number of CPUs.

      [PATCH] Fix odd code in bio_add_page · ad1ee2b1
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
      
      With the current code in bio_add_page, if fail_segments is ever set, it
      stays set, so bio_add_page will eventually fail having recounted the
      segmentation once.
      
      I don't think this is intended.  This patch changes the code to allow
      success if the recounting the segments helps.
      
      (Jens has acked this)

      [ARM] Remove more reminants of 26-bit ARM support. · ac7ebfb2
      Russell King authored
      This removes include/asm-arm/proc-armv entirely, merging the
      contents into the relevant include files in include/asm-arm.
      We also update various files in arch/arm which reference
      definitions in the now non-existent directory.
