fls() takes an integer, so roundup_pow_of_two() is busted for ulongs larger
than 2^32-1.
Fix this by implementing and using fls_long().
(Why does roundup_pow_of_two() return a long?)
(Why is roundup_pow_of_two() __attribute_const__ whereas long_log2() is
__attribute_pure__?)
(Why does long_log2() suck so much? Because we were missing fls_long()?)

Implement the half-closed devices notifiation, by adding a new POLLRDHUP
(and its alias EPOLLRDHUP) bit to the existing poll/select sets. Since the
existing POLLHUP handling, that does not report correctly half-closed
devices, was feared to be changed, this implementation leaves the current
POLLHUP reporting unchanged and simply add a new bit that is set in the few
places where it makes sense. The same thing was discussed and conceptually
agreed quite some time ago:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/12/116
Since this new event bit is added to the existing Linux poll infrastruture,
even the existing poll/select system calls will be able to use it. As far
as the existing POLLHUP handling, the patch leaves it as is. The
pollrdhup-2.6.16.rc5-0.10.diff defines the POLLRDHUP for all the existing
archs and sets the bit in the six relevant files. The other attached diff
is the simple change required to sys/epoll.h to add the EPOLLRDHUP
definition.
There is "a stupid program" to test POLLRDHUP delivery here:
http://www.xmailserver.org/pollrdhup-test.c
It tests poll(2), but since the delivery is same epoll(2) will work equally.

Remove the assumption that driver_register() returns the number of devices
bound to the driver. In fact, it returns zero for success or a negative
error value.
zorro_module_init() used the device count to automatically unregister and
unload drivers that found no devices. That might have worked at one time,
but has been broken for some time because zorro_register_driver() returned
either a negative error or a positive count (never zero). So it could only
unregister on failure, when it's not needed anyway.
This functionality could be resurrected in individual drivers by counting
devices in their .probe() methods.

Previous inotify work avoidance is good when inotify is completely unused,
but it breaks down if even a single watch is in place anywhere in the
system. Robin Holt notices that udev is one such culprit - it slows down a
512-thread application on a 512 CPU system from 6 seconds to 22 minutes.
Solve this by adding a flag in the dentry that tells inotify whether or not
its parent inode has a watch on it. Event queueing to parent will skip
taking locks if this flag is cleared. Setting and clearing of this flag on
all child dentries versus event delivery: this is no in terms of race
cases, and that was shown to be equivalent to always performing the check.
The essential behaviour is that activity occuring _after_ a watch has been
added and _before_ it has been removed, will generate events.

alarm() calls the kernel with an unsigend int timeout in seconds. The
value is stored in the tv_sec field of a struct timeval to setup the
itimer. The tv_sec field of struct timeval is of type long, which causes
the tv_sec value to be negative on 32 bit machines if seconds > INT_MAX.
Before the hrtimer merge (pre 2.6.16) such a negative value was converted
to the maximum jiffies timeout by the timeval_to_jiffies conversion. It's
not clear whether this was intended or just happened to be done by the
timeval_to_jiffies code.
hrtimers expect a timeval in canonical form and treat a negative timeout as
already expired. This breaks the legitimate usage of alarm() with a
timeout value > INT_MAX seconds.
For 32 bit machines it is therefor necessary to limit the internal seconds
value to avoid API breakage. Instead of doing this in all implementations
of sys_alarm the duplicated sys_alarm code is moved into a common function
in itimer.c

When we get an ICMP need-to-frag message, the original TOS value in the
ICMP payload cannot be used as a key to look up the routes to update.
This is because the TOS field may have been modified by routers on the
way. Similarly, ip_rt_redirect should also ignore the TOS as the router
that gave us the message may have modified the TOS value.
The patch achieves this objective by aggregating entries with different
TOS values (but are otherwise identical) into the same bucket. This
makes it easy to update them at the same time when an ICMP message is
received.
In future we should use a twin-hashing scheme where teh aggregation
occurs at the entry level. That is, the TOS goes back into the hash
for normal lookups while ICMP lookups will end up with a node that
gives us a list that contains all other route entries that differ
only by TOS.

Cleanup audio input handling in bttv and tvaudio:
- inputs were specified that were never used
- mute was handled as a special input which led to confusing code
- confusing naming made it difficult to see if the setting was for
i2c or gpio.
The old audiochip.h input names moved to tvaudio.h. Currently this
is used both by tvaudio and msp3400 until the msp3400 implements the
new msp3400-specific inputs.
Detect in bttv the tvaudio and msp3400 i2c clients and use these
client pointers to set the inputs directly instead of broadcasting the
command.
Removed AUDC_SET_INPUT. Now replaced by VIDIOC_S_AUDIO. This will be
replaced again later by the new ROUTING commands.

Memory errors encountered by user applications may surface
when the CPU is running in kernel context. The current code
will not attempt recovery if the MCA surfaces in kernel
context (privilage mode 0). This patch adds a check for cases
where the user initiated the load that surfaces in kernel
interrupt code.
An example is a user process lauching a load from memory
and the data in memory had bad ECC. Before the bad data
gets to the CPU register, and interrupt comes in. The
code jumps to the IVT interrupt entry point and begins
execution in kernel context. The process of saving the
user registers (SAVE_REST) causes the bad data to be loaded
into a CPU register, triggering the MCA. The MCA surfaces in
kernel context, even though the load was initiated from
user context.
As suggested by David and Tony, this patch uses an exception
table like approach, puting the tagged recovery addresses in
a searchable table. One difference from the exception table
is that MCAs do not surface in precise places (such as with
a TLB miss), so instead of tagging specific instructions,
address ranges are registers. A single macro is used to do
the tagging, with the input parameter being the label
of the starting address and the macro being the ending
address. This limits clutter in the code.
This patch only tags one spot, the interrupt ivt entry.
Testing showed that spot to be a "heavy hitter" with
MCAs surfacing while saving user registers. Other spots
can be added as needed by adding a single macro.

Make the softlockup detector purely timer-interrupt driven, removing
softirq-context (timer) dependencies. This means that if the softlockup
watchdog triggers, it has truly observed a longer than 10 seconds
scheduling delay of a SCHED_FIFO prio 99 task.
(the patch also turns off the softlockup detector during the initial bootup
phase and does small style fixes)
