      [PATCH] EISA: core changes · ddb6ee51
      Marc Zyngier authored
      - Now reserves I/O ranges according to EISA specs (four 256 bytes
        regions instead of a single 4KB region).
      
      - By default, do not try to probe the bus if the mainboard does not
        seems to support EISA (allow this behaviour to be changed through a
        command-line option).
      
      - Use parent bridge device dma_mask as default for each discovered
        device.
      
      - Allow devices to be enabled or disabled from the kernel command line
        (useful for non-x86 platforms where the firmware simply disable
        devices it doesn't know about...).

      [PATCH] Use the intents in 'nameidata' to improve NFS close-to-open consistency · 52d1430d
      Trond Myklebust authored
        - Make use of the open intents to improve close-to-open
          cache consistency. Only force data cache revalidation when
          we're doing an open().
      
        - Add true exclusive create to NFSv3.
      
        - Optimize away the redundant ->lookup() to check for an
          existing file when we know that we're doing NFSv3 exclusive
          create.
      
        - Optimize away all ->permission() checks other than those for
          path traversal, open(), and sys_access().

      [PATCH] Pass 'nameidata' to ->permission() · a574f324
      Trond Myklebust authored
         - Make the VFS pass the struct nameidata as an optional parameter
           to the permission() inode operation.
      
         - Patch may_create()/may_open() so it passes the struct nameidata from
           vfs_create()/open_namei() as an argument to permission().
      
         - Add an intent flag for the sys_access() function.

      [PATCH] Add open intent information to the 'struct nameidata' · fc8b427e
      Trond Myklebust authored
       - Add open intent information to the 'struct nameidata'.
       - Pass the struct nameidata as an optional parameter to the
         lookup() inode operation.
       - Pass the struct nameidata as an optional parameter to the
         d_revalidate() dentry operation.
       - Make link_path_walk() set the LOOKUP_CONTINUE flag in nd->flags instead
         of passing it as an extra parameter to d_revalidate().
       - Make open_namei(), and sys_uselib() set the open()/create() intent
         data.

      [PATCH] Make ksoftirqd a normal per-cpu variable. · 3ac57d34
      Rusty Russell authored
      This moves the ksoftirqd pointers out of the irq_stat struct, and uses a
      normal per-cpu variable.  It's not that time critical, nor referenced in
      assembler.  This moves us closer to making irq_stat a per-cpu variable.
      
      Because some archs have hardcoded asm references to offsets in this
      structure, I haven't touched non-x86.  The __ksoftirqd_task field is
      unused in other archs, too.

      [PATCH] Remove unused __syscall_count · 7b957b78
      Rusty Russell authored
      Noone seems to use __syscall_count.  Remove the field from i386
      irq_cpustat_t struct, and the generic accessor macros.
      
      Because some archs have hardcoded asm references to offsets in this
      structure, I haven't touched non-x86, but doing so is usually
      trivial.

      [PATCH] Remove cpu arg from cpu_raise_irq · 26e48e57
      Rusty Russell authored
      The function cpu_raise_softirq() takes a softirq number, and a cpu number,
      but cannot be used with cpu != smp_processor_id(), because there's no
      locking around the pending softirq lists.  Since noone does this, remove
      that arg.
      
      As per Linus' suggestion, names changed:
      	raise_softirq(int nr)
      	cpu_raise_softirq(int cpu, int nr) -> raise_softirq_irqoff(int nr)
      	__cpu_raise_softirq(int cpu, int nr) -> __raise_softirq_irqoff(int nr)
