      [PATCH] Remove Intel check in i386 HPET code · 4631b75f
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de>
      
      The i386 HPET time setup code would explicitely check for the Intel vendor
      ID.  That is bogus because other chipset vendors (like AMD) are
      implementing HPET too.  
      
      Remove this check.

      [PATCH] module removal race fix · 52db2a96
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Rusty Russell <rusty@au1.ibm.com>
      
      Vatsa spotted this: you can remove a module while it's being initialized,
      and that will be bad.  Hole was opened when I dropped the sem around the
      init routine (which can probe for other modules).

      Prevents a race where sys_sched_setaffinity can race with
      sched_migrate_task and cause sched_migrate_task to restore an invalid
      cpu mask.

      [PATCH] Fix weird placement of inline · 8e1b379f
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Jesper Juhl <juhl-lkml@dif.dk>
      
      I'm compiling 2.6.1-rc1-mm1 with "-W -Wall" to look for potential problems
      and minor stuff to clean up.
      
      One of the things that enabling the extra warnings turn up is errors about
      the placement of the inline keyword.

      [PATCH] Fix softcursor · 79dfabdf
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>
      
      Softcursor was broken for half of 2.5 series.  This fixes it by first
      hiding cursor _then_ hiding softcursor.  Very simple mistake...

      [PATCH] fix page counting for compound pages · 3af6d494
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: "Bryan O'Sullivan" <bos@serpentine.com>
      
      For compound pages, page_count needs to be sure to reference the head page.
      
      This affects code that plays tricks with memory mappings into userspace,
      which would mostly involve video drivers.

      [PATCH] 3c59x: module loading fix · 67228094
      Andrew Morton authored
      3c59x has a tunable `rx_copybreak'.  But it's declared const, so recent gcc's
      rub it out altogether, and modprobe says `3c59x: falsely claims to have
      parameter rx_copybreak'.

      Andrew Morton authored
      From: NeilBrown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
      
      follow_up doesn't check that the passed dentry is at the root of the mounted
      file system, so we have to do that, to avoid calling follow_up too many
      times.

      Andrew Morton authored
      From: NeilBrown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
      
      nfsd_setuser was not called until after filehandle lookup was done, so
      filehandle lookup would use the wrong userid, and so the permission checking
      in nfsd_acceptable would be bogus.

      [PATCH] Use request_list as indicator that req originated from ll_rw_blk · c04e456f
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu>,
            Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
      
      It's cleaner and more correct to look at req->rl to determine whether this
      request got from the block layer requests lists instead of using req->q.
      It's handy to always have req->q available, to lookup the queue from the
      request.

      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org>
      
      This patch adds linux input layer based support for infrared remote
        controls.  It adds two new modules:
      
      * ir-kbd-i2c supports i2c-based IR receivers.
      
      * ir-kbd-gpio supports IR receivers connected to the bt878 gpio pins.
      
      This patch depends on the ir-input patch and the bttv driver update.

      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org>
      
      This patch adds a module with some helper functions to handle infrared
      remotes using the linux input layer.  It doesn't do any useful stuff alone,
      but the saa7134 and bttv drivers will use that to support the remotes shipped
      with some TV cards.

      [PATCH] v4l: bttv driver update · bf3a93ac
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org>
      
      bttv driver update.  Changes:
      
      (1) Added a new, sysfs-based interface to allow access to the bt878 gpio
          lines from other kernel modules (new bttv-gpio.c file), which fixes alot
          of problems the old interface has (which still is in bttv-if.c, to be
          removed in 2.7).
      
      (2) moved the i2c code from bttv-if.c to bttv-i2c.c.
      
      (3) created a new "struct bttv_core" and moved some of the entries from
          "struct bttv" to the new one.  This is needed for (1) and makes the patch
          pretty big, althrough there is no actual code changes.
      
      (4) first cut for suspend support (S1 works for me).
      
      (5) usual batch of new/updated tv card list entries.
      
      (6) minor fixes.

      [PATCH] v4l: v4l2 update · 3fcdee6b
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org>
      
      This patch is a v4l2 update.  Changes:
      
      * added new ioctls (VIDIOC_G_PRIORITY, VIDIOC_S_PRIORITY) to give v4l apps
        priorities for tuning and other controls.  Main purpose is that backgrounds
        applictions like nxtvepg which are fishing informations from /dev/vbi
        (teletext, epg, ...) can run at lower priority than interactive tv apps and
        thus the user isn't annonyed with unexpected channel switches.
      
      * add a set of helper functions to handle priorities to the v4l2-common
        module.
      
      * minor fixes in the v4l1-compat module.
      
      * minor header file fixes.
