      [ARM PATCH] 2160/1: allow modules to work with XIP kernel · f05ee516
      Nicolas Pitre authored 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

This should be applied on top of patch #2154/1.

This maps the XIP kernel in the same virtual area as used for kernel
modules instead of the previous arbitrary location.  Doing so has the
advantage of having a well defined kernel address not conflicting
with the different definitions for VMALLOC_END, as well as making
modules loadable without any indirect long branch calls.  The work
on XIPable MTD also requires this with code marked __xipram for the
same reason.

This of course reduces the space available for kernel modules from
16MB to either 14MB or 12MB depending on the size of the resulting 
kernel but that shouldn't be a real issue at all, given that the
whole purpose behind XIP is to execute as much stuff from flash, 
which is better achieved by compiling drivers in the kernel directly.

      [ARM PATCH] 2154/2: XIP kernel for ARM · 457450ab
      Nicolas Pitre authored 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

This patch allows for the kernel to be configured for XIP.
A lot of people are using semi hacked up XIP patches already so
it is a good idea to have a generic and clean implementation 
supporting all ARM targets. The patch isn't too intrusive.

It involves:

- modifying the kernel entry code to map separate .text and .data
  sections in the initial page table, as well as relocating
  .data to ram when needed

- modifying the linker script to account for the different VMA and
  LMA for .data, as well as making sure that .init.data gets
  relocated to ram

- adding the final kernel mapping with a new MT_ROM mem type

- distinguishing between XIP and non-XIP for bootmem and memory
  resource declaration

- and adding proper target handling to Makefiles.

While at it, this also cleans up the kernel boot code a bit
so the kernel can now be compiled for any address in ram,
removing the need for a relation between kernel address and
start of ram.  Also throws in some more comments.

And finally the _text, _etext, _end and similar variables are now
declared extern void instead of extern char, or even extern int.
That allows for operations on their address directly without any
cast, and trying to reference them by mistake would yield an 
error which is a good thing.

Tested both configurations: XIP and non XIP, the later 
producing a kernel for execution from ram just as before.

     You are absolutely correct. That notice slipped by us and should not be in
     there. 
   
     If someone with access to the mainline source could remove that for us we
     would appreciate it.

      [PATCH] Fix do_wait race · 607acf00
      Dinakar Guniguntala authored 
      Only set the flag in the cases when the exit state is not either
TASK_DEAD or TASK_ZOMBIE.

(TASK_DEAD or TASK_ZOMBIE will either race or we'll return the 
information, so no need to note them).

I confirmed that this fixes the problem and I also ran some LTP tests

      Ben Dooks authored 
      Patch from Ben Dooks

This patch does the following:

 - Save S3C2410_DCLKCON over sleep
 - Save all non-SDRAM memory bank config
 - Fix bug in setting PLL before clock divisor
 - Save all IRQ level controlls
 - Restore IRQ masks _after_ configuration restored
 - No debug until core registers restored

This patch also moves the pm save/restore list code
into the header, for other parts of arch/arm/mach-s3c2410
to use. Note, this is not a general invite for external
code to use these functions.

Also applied patch from Dimitry Andric to fix up the
