Using a simple page table thrashing program I measure a slight improvement. The program creates five processes. Each touches 1000 pages then schedules the next process. We repeat this 1000 times. As lguest only caches 4 cr3 values, this rebuilds a lot of shadow page tables requiring virt->phys mappings. Before: 5.93 seconds After: 5.40 seconds (Counts of slow vs fastpath in this usage are 6092 and 2852462 respectively.) And more importantly for lguest, the code is simpler.

Back when .gitignore file was added to arch/powerpc/ in 06f2138e ([POWERPC] Add files build to .gitignore, 2006-11-26), there indeed was nothing tracked in the ignored hierarchy and ignoring everything made sense. But we have very many tracked files there these days, and having a higher level .gitignore that ignores everything is asking for future troubles..

The function htab_bolt_mapping() is used to create permanent mappings in the MMU hash table, for example, in order to create the linear mapping of vmemmap. It's also used by early boot ioremap (before mem_init_done). However, the way ioremap uses it is incorrect as it passes it the protection flags in the "linux PTE" form while htab_bolt_mapping() expects them in the hash table format. This is made more confusing by the fact that some of those flags are actually in the same position in both cases. This fixes it all by making htab_bolt_mapping() take normal linux protection flags instead, and use a little helper to convert them to htab flags. Callers can now use the usual PAGE_* definitions safely.

When we have an ISA memory hole (ie, a PCI window that allows us to generate PCI memory cycles at low PCI address) mixed with other resources using a different CPU <=> PCI mapping, we must not keep the ISA hole in the bridge resource list. If we do, things might start trying to allocate device resources in there and will get the PCI addresses wrong. This fixes it by arranging to remove the ISA memory hole resource in this case. This fixes various cases of PCMCIA breakage on PowerBooks using the MPC106 "grackle" bridge.

The kernel copy of the rtas args struct contains the return value(s) for the specified rtas call. These are copied back to user space with the assumption that every value has been set by the rtas call, which turns out to be not always true. Thus userspace can see random values and think the call failed when in fact it succeeded, but for some reason didn't set one of the return values. This fixes the problem by zeroing out the return value fields of the rtas args struct before processing the rtas call.

We check for address business in i2c_probe_address(), i2c_detect_address() and i2c_new_probed_device(), but this isn't sufficient. Drivers can call i2c_attach_client() and i2c_new_device() on any address, so we must check the address there as well.

In kernel 2.6.26, the ability to select I2C algorithm drivers manually was removed, as all in-kernel drivers do that automatically. However there were some complaints that it was a problem for out-of-tree I2C bus drivers. In order to address these complaints, let's allow manual selection of these drivers again, but still hide them by default for better general user experience.
