2007-02-13[MIPS] Make entry.S a little more readable.Franck Bui-Huu
When CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set, it also moves one branch instruction from ret_from_irq() to ret_from_exception(). Therefore we favour the return from irq case which should be more common than the other one.

2007-02-13[MIPS] Remove stray instruction from __get_user_asm_ll32.Ralf Baechle

2007-02-13[MIPS] DECstation: Fix irq handlingAtsushi Nemoto
When I post a patch (commit f431baa55abf8adeed0c718b51deacbc151f58f1), I just tried to not change behavior of existing codes, but it seems dec/int-handler.S had been broken since its previous commit 937a801576f954bd030d7c4a5a94571710d87c0b. The caller of plat_irq_dispatch do setup/restore TI_REGS($28), so dec's plat_irq_dispatch should not do it, and there is no need to adjust RA.

Now that finally all supported versions of binutils have functioning support for .subsection use .subsection to tweak the branch prediction I did not modify the R10000 errata variants because it seems unclear if this will invalidate the workaround which actually relies on the cheesy prediction of branch likely to cause a misspredict if the sc was successful.

2007-02-11cfq-iosched: tweak the FIFO checkingJens Axboe
We currently check the FIFO once per slice. Optimize that a bit and only do it as the first thing for a new slice, so we don't end up doing a single request and then seek to the FIFO requests. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-02-11cfq-iosched: don't pass in queue for cfq_arm_slice_timer()Jens Axboe

2007-02-11[PATCH] Switch s390 to NO_IOMEMAl Viro
Martin Schwidefsky wrote: "s390 does not even need (in|out)b(_p|). I wondered what else from io.h do we not need. The answer is: almost nothing. With the devres patch from Al and the dma-mapping patch from Heiko we can get rid of iomem and all associated definitions." So we'll just need to replace NO_IOPORT with NO_IOMEM in Kconfig and kill arch/s390/mm/ioremap.c. BTW, there's an annoying bit of junk in there - IO_SPACE_LIMIT. We only need it for /proc/ioports, which AFAICS shouldn't even be there on s390 (or uml). OTOH, removing that thing would mean a user-visible change - we go from "empty file in /proc" to "no such file in /proc"...

2007-02-11[PATCH] rapidio: fix multi-switch enumerationAlexandre Bounine
This patch contains two fixes for RapisIO enumeration logic: 1. Fix enumeration in configurations with multiple switches. The patch adds: a. Enumeration of an empty switch. Empty switch is a switch that does not have any endpoint devices attached to it (except host device or previous switch in a chain). New code assigns a phony destination ID associated with the switch and sets up corresponding routes. b. Adds a second pass to the enumeration to setup routes to devices discovered after switch was scanned. 2. Fix enumeration failure when riohdid parameter has non-zero value. Current version fails to setup response path to the host when it has destination ID other that 0.
