On 64-bit machines, if an atomic counter is explicitly set to a negative value, the atomic_dec_if_positive function will decrement and store the next smallest value in the atomic counter, contrary to its intended operation. The comparison to determine if the decrement will make the result negative was done by the "addic." instruction, which operates on a 64-bit value, namely the zero-extended word loaded from the atomic variable. This patch uses an explicit word compare (cmpwi) and changes the addic. to an addi (also changing "=&r" to "=&b" so that r0 isn't used, and addi doesn't become li). This also fixes a bug for both 32-bit and 64-bit in that previously 0x80000000 was considered positive, since the result after decrementing is positive. Now it is considered negative. Also, I clarify the return value in the comments just to make it clear that the value returned is always the decremented value, even if that value is not stored back to the atomic counter.

Incorrect use of of_find_node_by_name() causes of_node_put() on a node which has already been put. It causes the refcount of the node to underflow, which triggers the WARN_ON in kref_get for 836x and 832x. This fixes it.

It appears that the iommu table address is never stored, and thus never found, on non-lpar systems. Thus, for example, during boot: <7>[ 93.067916] PCI: Scanning bus 0001:41 <7>[ 93.068542] PCI: Found 0001:41:01.0 [8086/100f] 000200 00 <7>[ 93.068550] PCI: Calling quirk c0000000007822e0 for 0001:41:01.0 <7>[ 93.069815] PCI: Fixups for bus 0001:41 <4>[ 93.070167] iommu: Device 0001:41:01.0 has no iommu table <7>[ 93.070251] PCI: Bus scan for 0001:41 returning with max=41 No iommu table? How can that be? Well, circa line 471 of arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/iommu.c we see the code: while (dn && PCI_DN(dn) && PCI_DN(dn)->iommu_table == NULL) dn = dn->parent; and a few lines later is the surprising print statement about the missing table. Seems that this loop ran unto the end, never once finding a non-null PCI_DN(dn)->iommu_table. The problem can be found a few lines earlier: it sems that the value of PCI_DN(dn)->iommu_table is never ever set. Thus, the patch sets it. The patch was tested on a Power4 system running in full system partition mode, which is where I saw the problem. It works; I've not done any wider testing. Had a brief discussion on this on irc.

The mmio nvram driver (used by cell only atm) isn't properly parsing the device-tree, meaning that nvram isn't found correctly on the new Cell blades. It works ok for old blades where the nvram is at the root of the device tree but fails on Malta and CAB when it's hanging off axon. This fixes it by using the proper OF parsing functions.

The new implementation of pci_device_to_OF_node() on ppc32 has a bogus sanity check in it that can cause oopses at boot when no device node is present, and might hit correct cases with older/weird apple device-trees where they have the type "vci" for the chaos bridge.

Currently we issue a bounce trace when __blk_queue_bounce() is called, but that merely means that the device has a lower dma mask than the higher pages in the system. The bio itself may still be lower pages. So move the bounce trace into __blk_queue_bounce(), when we know there will actually be page bouncing.

NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page() invalidate_inode_pages2() may find the dirty bit has been set on a page owing to the fact that the page may still be mapped after it was locked. Only after the call to unmap_mapping_range() are we sure that the page can no longer be dirtied. In order to fix this, NFS has hooked the releasepage() method and tries to write the page out between the call to unmap_mapping_range() and the call to remove_mapping(). This, however leads to deadlocks in the page reclaim code, where the page may be locked without holding a reference to the inode or dentry. Fix is to add a new address_space_operation, launder_page(), which will attempt to write out a dirty page without releasing the page lock.

Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b7d) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b9c) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__cpu_up from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141bd8) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c05) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c26) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up' This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are defined as __devinit AND __cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions. Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration, we get a .text refering .init.data warning. This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or are of __init type. Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would land up in .init section.

While testing 2.6.20-rc3 on a machine with some CK804 chipsets, we noticed that quirk_nvidia_ck804_msi_ht_cap() was not detecting HT MSI capabilities anymore. It is actually caused by the MSI mapping on the root chipset being the 2nd HT capability in the chain. pci_find_ht_capability() does not seem to find anything but the first HT cap correctly, because it forgets to increment the position before looking for the next cap. The following patch seems to fix it. At least, this proves that having a ttl is good idea since the machine would have been stucked in an infinite loop if we didn't have a ttl :) We have to pass pos + PCI_CAP_LIST_NEXT to __pci_find_next_cap_ttl to get the next HT cap instead of the same one again.

Make init's cpus_allowed a subset of cpu_possible_map instead. This should still preserve the behavior that Nick's change intended.

It might save a few bytes after bootup, but it causes the string to be linked in at the end of the final vmlinux image, which defeats the whole point of doing all this, namely allowing some broken user-space binaries to search for the kernel version string in the kernel binary.
