From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@au1.ibm.com> This patch stops the iseries_veth driver trying to send every packet to too many logical partitions. Consequently, the number of transmit errors falls to (about) zero from a very large number. This should also improve performance a bit as the driver is no longer doing 31 extra skb_clone()s and skb_free()s for each packet.

From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> At present on ppc32, if the kernel accesses a bad address and causes an oops, or drops into the xmon debugger, we only have the contents of the volatile registers available to print. The reason is that we only save the volatile registers on entry for a page fault. This patch restructures the code a bit so that if do_page_fault() determines that the page fault is caused by a bad kernel access, it returns to the caller, which then saves the full register set into the exception frame before calling bad_page_fault(). This way we get the full set of registers printed in the oops message.

blk_run_page() is incorrectly using page->mapping, which makes it racy against removal from swapcache. Make block_sync_page() use page_mapping(), and remove bkl_run_page(), which only had one caller.

Split the system_state state `SYSTEM_SHUTDOWN' into SYSTEM_HALT, SYSTEM_POWER_OFF and SYSTEM_RESTART and export system_state to modules. This allows driver shutdown routines to know why they are being shutdown. The IDE subsystem wants this so that it knows to not spin the disks down across a reboot.

From: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> This allows building the math-emu code as a module only when CONFIG_SMP is not set. The fp trap handler cannot be preempted on a single-CPU (as CONFIG_PREEMPT is not going to be supported on alpha), so the module can be safely unloaded at any time.

reiserfs_file_write unlocks the pages it operated on before updating i_size. This can lead to races with writepage, who checks i_size when deciding how much of the file to zero out. This patch also replaces SetPageReferenced with mark_page_accessed() in reiserfs_file_write This was verified to fix the BitKeeper data corruption problems that Steven Cole has been debugging, where concurrent writes to a file and writebacks to disk would cause zeroes in the file when CONFIG_PREEMPT was enabled.

- clear hwif->hw in setup-pci.c before using it - fix arch/arm/Kconfig to allow IDE only on platforms supporting it - introduce IDE_ARCH_OBSOLETE_INIT and ide_default_io_ctl() so we can use generic ide_init_hwif_ports() and kill no longer needed <asm-arm/arch-*/ide.h> (leave broken lh7a40x and sa1100 versions) Cross-compile tested on ARM.

Add drivers/ide/arm/ide_arm.c for simple default IDE interfaces and clean obsolete ide_init_default_hwifs() implementations in asm-arm/arch-{cl7500,rpc,shark}/ide.h and asm-arm26/ide.h. This allows us to kill ide_init_default_hwifs() completely in the next patch (because lh7a40x and sa1100 are broken). Cross-compile tested on ARM.

* Reads/writes from/to eeprom using ethtool weren't working right on big-endian. Now they are.
-
Scott Feldman authored
* Changed mapping on Rx skb to bi-directional. skb->data holds both the RFD structure and the packet data, and the RFD is read/written by HW. Issue found on Xscale HW that doesn't handle cache syncs auto- matically. Other changes in patch are whitespace/spelling.
