This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
"LinuxPPS".
PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
use it to adjust system clock time.
Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
synchronisation to UTC.
To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch. It
provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
get the time signal. The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
to these char devices.

context, there is the potential to access a table after it has been freed.

Currently the sysrq-c handler is bit over-engineered. Its behavior is
dependent on a few compile time and run time factors that alter its
behavior which is really unnecessecary.
If CONFIG_KEXEC is not configured, sysrq-c, crashes the system with a NULL
pointer dereference. If CONFIG_KEXEC is configured, it calls crash_kexec
directly, which implies that the kexec kernel will either be booted (if
its been previously loaded), or it will simply do nothing (the no kexec
kernel has been loaded).
It would be much easier to just simplify the whole thing to dereference a
NULL pointer all the time regardless of configuration. That way, it will
always try to crash the system, and if a kexec kernel has been loaded into
reserved space, it will still boot from the page fault trap handler
(assuming panic_on_oops is set appropriately).

On embedded devices, sleep mode conditions can be tricky to handle,
Especially when processors tend to pull-down the w1 bus during sleep. Bus
slaves (such as the ds2760) may interpret this as a reason for power-down
conditions and entirely switch off the device.
This patch adds a callback function pointer to let users switch on and off
the external pull-up resistor. This lets the outside world know whether
the processor is currently actively driving the bus or not.
When this callback is not provided, the code behaviour won't change.

We unified x86 and IA64's handling of multiple dma mapping operations
(struct dma_map_ops in linux/dma-mapping.h) so we can remove duplication
in their arch/include/asm/dma-mapping.h.
This patchset adds include/asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h that provides
some generic dma mapping function definitions for the users of struct
dma_map_ops. This enables us to remove about 100 lines. This also
enables us to easily add CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support, which only x86
supports for now. The 4th patch adds CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support to IA64
by adding only 8 lines.
This patch:
This header file provides some mapping function definitions that the users
of struct dma_map_ops can use.

Enable the use of GCC's coverage testing tool gcov [1] with the Linux
kernel. gcov may be useful for:
* debugging (has this code been reached at all?)
* test improvement (how do I change my test to cover these lines?)
* minimizing kernel configurations (do I need this option if the
associated code is never run?)
The profiling patch incorporates the following changes:
* change kbuild to include profiling flags
* provide functions needed by profiling code
* present profiling data as files in debugfs
Note that on some architectures, enabling gcc's profiling option
"-fprofile-arcs" for the entire kernel may trigger compile/link/
run-time problems, some of which are caused by toolchain bugs and
others which require adjustment of architecture code.
For this reason profiling the entire kernel is initially restricted
to those architectures for which it is known to work without changes.
This restriction can be lifted once an architecture has been tested
and found compatible with gcc's profiling. Profiling of single files
or directories is still available on all platforms (see config help
text).
