Commit 2d3854a37e8b767a51aba38ed6d22817b0631e33 ("cpumask: introduce new
API, without changing anything") introduced a build breakage on parisc.
This trivial patch fixes it.

In 2007, a0acd820807680d2ccc4ef3448387fcdbf152c73 changed the default
slab allocator to SLUB, but the SLAB help text still says SLAB is the
default. This change fixes that.

C2port implements a two wire serial communication protocol (bit
banging) designed to enable in-system programming, debugging, and
boundary-scan testing on low pin-count Silicon Labs devices.
Currently this code supports only flash programming through sysfs
interface but extensions shoud be easy to add.

The HDQ/1-Wire module of TI OMAP2430/3430 platforms implement the hardware
protocol of the master functions of the Benchmark HDQ and the Dallas
Semiconductor 1-Wire protocols. These protocols use a single wire for
communication between the master (HDQ/1-Wire controller) and the slave
(HDQ/1-Wire external compliant device).
This patch provides the HDQ driver to suppport TI OMAP2430/3430 platforms.

This adds support for the RTC provided by the Wolfson Microelectronics
WM8350.
This driver was originally written by Graeme Gregory and Liam Girdwood,
though it has been modified since then to update it to current mainline
coding standards and for API completeness.

This adds a driver to the accelerometer sensor found in several HP
laptops (under the commercial names of "HP Mobile Data Protection System
3D" and "HP 3D driveguard"). It tries to have more or less the same
interfaces as the hdaps and other accelerometer drivers: in sysfs and as
a joystick.
This driver was first written by Yan Burman. Eric Piel has updated it
and slimed it up (including the removal of an interface to access to the
free-fall feature of the sensor because it is not reliable enough for
now). Pavel Machek removed few more features and switched locking from
semaphore to mutex.
Several people have contributed to the database of the axes.

controller
We're working with an AT91SAM9263 Rev B in our design and I experienced
some inconsistency in spi-based touchscreen usage between our board and
the Atmel evaluation kit we have that runs on a Rev A chip.
The data was apparently delayed by 1 byte and got ridiculous data out of
the touchscreen driver, very strange. As everything looked normal in
the spi, touchscreen and dma logs, I contacted the Atmel support and
they triggered me on a new HW bug that appeared in the Rev B SPI
controller.
The problem is that the SPI controller on the Rev B needs that the
software reset is performed two times so that it's performed correctly.
Applying the patch below solves the issue on my Rev B board. I've tested
it as well on my Rev A evaluation kit and it has apparently no unwanted
side effect, things continue to work as expected.

In the last refactoring of shrink_submounts a variable was not completely
renamed. So finish the renaming of mnt to m now.
Without this if you attempt to mount an nfs mount that has both automatic
nfs sub mounts on it, and has normal mounts on it. The unmount will
succeed when it should not.

lockdep warns about following message at boot time on one of my test
machine. Then, schedule_on_each_cpu() sholdn't be called when the task
have mmap_sem.
Actually, lru_add_drain_all() exist to prevent the unevictalble pages
stay on reclaimable lru list. but currenct unevictable code can rescue
unevictable pages although it stay on reclaimable list.
So removing is better.
In addition, this patch add lru_add_drain_all() to sys_mlock() and
sys_mlockall(). it isn't must. but it reduce the failure of moving to
unevictable list. its failure can rescue in vmscan later. but reducing
is better.
Note, if above rescuing happend, the Mlocked and the Unevictable field
mismatching happend in /proc/meminfo. but it doesn't cause any real
trouble.

__register_kprobe() can be preempted after checking probing address but
before module_text_address() or try_module_get(), and in this interval
the module can be unloaded. In that case, try_module_get(probed_mod)
will access to invalid address, or kprobe will probe invalid address.
This patch uses preempt_disable() to protect it and uses
__module_text_address() and __kernel_text_address().

With this change, control file 'freezer.state' doesn't exist in root
cgroup, making root cgroup unfreezable.
I think it's reasonable to disallow freeze tasks in the root cgroup. And
then we can avoid fork overhead when freezer subsystem is compiled but not
used.
Also make writing invalid value to freezer.state returns EINVAL rather
than EIO. This is more consistent with other cgroup subsystem.

In theory the task can be moved to another cgroup and the freezer will be
freed right after task_lock is dropped, so the lock results in zero
protection.
But in the case of freezer_fork() no lock is needed, since the task is not
in tasklist yet so it won't be moved to another cgroup, so task->cgroups
won't be changed or invalidated.

If all allowable memory is unreclaimable, it is possible to loop forever
in the page allocator for ~__GFP_NORETRY allocations.
During this time, it is also possible for a task's cpuset to expand its
set of allowable nodes so that it now includes free memory. The cached
copy of this set, current->mems_allowed, is stale, however, since there
has not been a subsequent call to cpuset_update_task_memory_state().
The cached copy of the set of allowable nodes is now updated in the page
allocator's slow path so the additional memory is available to
get_page_from_freelist().

It turns out that edac_mc_del_mc will kobject_put the last kref on the
mci object.
If the timing is just right, that means that the mci object is freed
before before i5000_remove_one has a chance to free the resources
associated with it, causing a null pointer exceptions when unloading the
driver. Insert a kobject_{get,put} pair so that this doesn't happen.

It turns out that if one registers a struct platform_device, the
platform device code expects that platform_device.device->driver points
to a struct driver inside a struct platform_driver.
This is not the case with the ipmi-si, ipmi-msghandler and ibmaem
drivers, which causes the suspend/resume hook functions to jump off into
nowhere, causing a crash. Make this assumption hold true for these
three drivers.

Oops. Part of the hugetlb private reservation code was not fully
converted to use hstates.
When a huge page must be unmapped from VMAs due to a failed COW,
HPAGE_SIZE is used in the call to unmap_hugepage_range() regardless of
the page size being used. This works if the VMA is using the default
huge page size. Otherwise we might unmap too much, too little, or
trigger a BUG_ON. Rare but serious -- fix it.

Fix bnx2 so that netpoll works properly. Specifically:

struct net_device
2) Fix poll_controller method to check every queue in the rx case so frames
aren't missed

This fixes a TX hang reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
When an architecutre cannot provide a fully functional
64-bit atomic readq/writeq, the driver must implement
it's own. This is because only the driver can say whether
doing something like using two 32-bit reads to implement
the full 64-bit read will actually work properly.
In particular one of the issues is whether the top 32-bits
or the bottom 32-bits of the 64-bit register should be read
first. There could be side effects, and in fact that is
exactly the problem here.
The TX_CS register has counters in the upper 32-bits and
state bits in the lower 32-bits. A read clears the state
bits.
We would read the counter half before the state bit half.
That first read would clear the state bits, and then the
driver thinks that no interrupts are pending because the
interrupt indication state bits are seen clear every time.
Fix this by reading the bottom half before the upper half.

Like mac80211 did, this driver makes 'clever' use of skb->cb to pass
information along with an skb as it is requeued from the virtual device
to the physical wireless device. Unfortunately, that trick no longer
works...
Unlike mac80211, code complexity and driver apathy makes this hack
the best option we have in the short run. Hopefully someone will
eventually be motivated to code a proper fix before all the effected
hardware dies.

hack. -- JWL)
