      [PATCH] update m68knommu link script with 5282 support · 8a6beaba
      Greg Ungerer authored
      This patch does a couple of things to the m68knommu common linker
      script:
       - adds support for the 5282 ColdFire CPU
       - fixes broken setup for the Dragon Engine board

      [PATCH] add dummy VMALLOC_ defines to m68knommu · bbafee46
      Greg Ungerer authored
      Add dummy VMALLOC_START and VMALLOC_END defines to m68knommu architectures.
      Some code in the proc filesystem breaks without them now.

      [PATCH] change get_sb prototype · 2f124a73
      Andries E. Brouwer authored
      (i) The prototypes for free_vfsmnt(), alloc_vfsmnt(), do_kern_mount()
          so far occurred in several individual c files.  Now they are in
          <linux/mount.h>.
      
      (ii) do_kern_mount() has a third argument name that is typically a
           constant.  It is called with "rootfs", "nfsd", type->name,
           "capifs", "usbdevfs", "binfmt_misc" etc.  So, it should have a
           prototype that expresses this:
      
      	do_kern_mount(const char *fstype, int flags, const char *name, void *data);
      
      This makes the ugly cast
      
      -       return do_kern_mount(type->name, 0, (char *)type->name, NULL);
      +       return do_kern_mount(type->name, 0, type->name, NULL);
      
      go away. Now do_kern_mount() calls type->get_sb(), so also get_sb()
      must have a const third argument. That is what the patch below does.
      
      If I am not mistaken, precisely two filesystems do not treat this
      argument as a constant, namely afs and cifs. A separate patch
      gives some cleanup there.

      [PATCH] fix ColdFire 5407 cache flushing · 4b6243ca
      Greg Ungerer authored
      This fixes some ColdFire 5407 cache bogosity.  Previous code was pushing
      all cache lines and the invalidating all of the cache.  The push should
      be enough, and now with underlying fixes the the cache setup registers
      it is.  Removed the whole invalidate cycle.

      [PATCH] module refcounts for airport driver · cd8286cf
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This patch takes out the MOD_INC/DEC_USE_COUNT in the airport (Apple
      wireless ethernet) driver.  The driver already does SET_MODULE_OWNER
      on the netdevice, so the MOD_INC/DEC_USE_COUNT are unnecessary and
      just cause warnings.

      [PATCH] module owner for ppp_synctty.c · 0e30af1e
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This patch fixes ppp_synctty.c (used for doing PPP over some synchronous
      serial HDLC links) so that it sets the owner field of the tty line
      discipline it exports, rather than using MOD_INC/DEC_USE_COUNT.  This
      is more or less from Stephen Hemminger.
      
      Please apply.
      
      Thanks,
      Paul.

      [PATCH] Fix snd_seq_queue_find_name() · 9ebc87ac
      Ben Collins authored
      While going through sound/ for strncpy replacing, I came across this
      routine:
      
      /* return the (first) queue matching with the specified name */
      queue_t *snd_seq_queue_find_name(char *name)
      {
              int i;
              queue_t *q;
      
              for (i = 0; i < SNDRV_SEQ_MAX_QUEUES; i++) {
                      if ((q = queueptr(i)) != NULL) {
                              if (strncpy(q->name, name, sizeof(q->name)) == 0)
                                      return q;
                              queuefree(q);
                      }
              }
              return NULL;
      }
      
      
      I'm _really_ sure that they meant to use strncmp() here instead.
      
      Like this.

      This does a lot of cleanup for strncpy->strlcpy, replaces some
      sprintf/snprintf's aswell.  There were only two places where things
      weren't straight forward.  All-in-all a good cleanup though.

      Yet another one in the namespace.c series.

              if (IS_DEADDIR(nd->dentry->d_inode))

              if (IS_ROOT(nd->dentry) || !d_unhashed(nd->dentry)) {
      		...
      	}
      	spin_unlock(&dcache_lock);
       out_unlock:
      
      was made incorrect in 2.5.29 when

              if (err)
                      goto out_unlock;
      
      was inserted.  It has happened more often that people overlooked
      a preexisting setting of err.

      [PATCH] Better fix for ia32 subarch circular dependencies · fb8ce055
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com>
      
      This is a rework of John's recent change which resolved a circular include
      dependency: a function in mach_apic.h requires hard_smp_processor_id() and
      hard_smp_processor_id() requires macros from mach_apic.h
      
      So this patch (against bk-current) reverts the previous, and fixes the same
      circular dependency in a much cleaner way, by moving a piece of the circular
      chain into its own .h file, rather then removing hard_smp_processor_id() and
      accessing the apic by hand.

      [PATCH] rd.c: separate queue per disk · cd388069
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Maneesh Soni <maneesh@in.ibm.com>
      
      Provides a separate request queue for each ramdisk instance.  Without this,
      the kernel oopses when the block later tries to unregister the same set of
      kobject things multiple times.  This makes rd.c consistent with all other
      "disk" devices.

      [PATCH] Remove floating point use in cpia.c · 1e7c16a9
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Duncan Haldane <f.duncan.m.haldane@worldnet.att.net>
      
      Gerd Knorr noticed a small use of floating point math in the cpia driver
      updates for 2.5.x I sent you a while ago, and this is not allowed in the
      kernel.
      
      This was in some code taken essentially verbatim from the Windows cpia
      driver released under the GPL by STM inc.  that had been incorporated in
      the later versions of the cpia drivera sourceforge.
      
      It turns out that the use of floating point was quite inessential, and I've
      reimplemented the couple of lines of code involved in integer arithmetic.
