try_then_request_module() does what crypto/autoload.c is doing, so
replace it.  Fix try_then_request_module(), too (thanks James).

I should have stayed in bed.

Cleanup ikconfig
	- use single_open for built_with file.
	- get rid of unneeded globals
	- use copy_to_user instead of char at a time
	- only need the read routine, proc defaults to correct behaviour
	  for the rest.

When mmap MAP_SHARED is done on a file, it gets marked with VM_MAYSHARE
and, if it's read/write, VM_SHARED.  However, if it is remapped with
mremap(), the MAP_SHARED is only passed into the new mapping based on
VM_SHARED.  This means that remapped read only MAP_SHARED mappings lose
VM_MAYSHARE.  This is causing us a problem on parisc because we have to
align all shared mappings carefully to mitigate cache aliasing problems.

The fix is to key passing the MAP_SHARED flag back into the remapped are
off VM_MAYSHARE not VM_SHARED.

driver->supports_dma was used together with CONFIG_IDEDMA_ONLYDISK to limit
DMA access to disk devices only.  However Alan introduced new scheme in 2.5.63
and this field is not needed any longer because all ide drivers support DMA.

Some references to irq_stat[] snuck into generic code.  It doesn't work on
several architectures.

So revert that little improvement to the original version.

It seems that changing CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD causes the whole kernel to
rebuild due to an inappropriate ifdef in linux/fs.h - we should not
conditionalise prototypes.

In addition, real_root_dev is only used by two files (kernel/sysctl.c
and init/do_mounts_initrd.c) so it makes even less sense that it was in
linux/fs.h

This patch fixes a logic bug in NAT range calculations, which also
causes a large slowdown when ICMP floods go through NAT.

Rather than hardcoded names in modprobe, modules can offer their own
aliases (which can be overridden by the config file).

Here are the tty-ldisc ones.

Please delete Documentation/kmod.txt: it's entirely outdated and misleading.

I thought about rewriting it, but there's not much to add beyond what's in
the CONFIG_KMOD's help text.

The same address `i8042_request_irq_cookie' is used in three places for the
i8042 request_irq() argument.  This means that if someone calls
i8042_check_mux() or i8042_check_aux() while the IRQ is in use, the
free_irq() call in there will free the wrong IRQ handler.

So give all three instances of request_irq() in i8042.c a distinct address by
which to identify the IRQ instance.

(This is probably a non-bug, because the `check' functions are not called
when the device is open, but it is better this way).

Create the pty slaves on init so the behaviour is consistant with 2.4 and 2.6

This patch adds an 'selinux' boot parameter which must be used to actually
enable SELinux.

It follows some internal discussion about deployment issues, where a vendor
would want to ship a single kernel image with SELinux built-in, without
requiring the user to use it.

Without specifying selinux=1 as a boot parameter, SELinux will not register
with LSM and selinuxfs will not be registered as a filesystem.  This causes
SELinux to be bypassed entirely from then on, and no performance overhead
is imposed.  Other security modules may then also be loaded if needed.

The routine disk_round_stats showed up considerably under oprofile for high
disk io load (four processes doing dd to the same disk (different
partitions) on a 4 way).

This is because the counter in_flight which is per-cpu right now gets read
every time disk_round_stats gets called.  Per cpu counters like disk
statistics improve write speed, but reads are slow (since all cpus' local
counter values have to be read and summed up).  Considering the fact that
in_flight counter is modified post disk_round_stats (which reads the
in_flight counter) it is better not to per-cpu this counter.

Following patch does just that.  Below is the profile comparison before and
after the change.  This was on a 4 way PIII Xeon, 1G ram, 2.6.0-test4-mm2.

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())

Add checks for kfree() of a page which was allocated with __alloc_pages(),
and for free_pages() of a page which was allocated with kmalloc().
