ea0c925370 mac80211: Only flush workqueue when last interface was removed
Currently the ieee80211_hw->workqueue is flushed each time
an interface is being removed. However most scheduled work
is not interface specific but device specific, for example things like
periodic work for link tuners.

This patch will move the flush_workqueue() call to directly behind
the call to ops->stop() to make sure the workqueue is only flushed
when all interfaces are gone and there really shouldn't be any scheduled
work in the drivers left.

4f81c5350b [UML] fix gcc ICEs and unresolved externs
There are various constraints on the use of unit-at-a-time:
 - i386 uses no-unit-at-a-time for pre-4.0 (not 4.3)
 - x86_64 uses unit-at-a-time always

Uli reported a crash on x86_64 with gcc 4.1.2 with unit-at-a-time,
resulting in commit c0a18111e5

Ingo reported a gcc internal error with gcc 4.3 with no-unit-at-a-timem,
resulting in 22eecde2f9

Benny Halevy is seeing extern inlines not resolved with gcc 4.3 with
no-unit-at-a-time

This patch reintroduces unit-at-a-time for gcc >= 4.0, bringing back the
possibility of Uli's crash.  If that happens, we'll debug it.

I started seeing both the internal compiler errors and unresolved
inlines on Fedora 9.  This patch fixes both problems, without so far
reintroducing the crash reported by Uli.

using the of_match_node() facility to match a node against
an array of possible matches. However, the patch didn't properly

0fe1ef24f7 vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats
They print out a pointer in symbolic format, if possible (ie using
symbolic KALLSYMS information).  The '%pS' format is for regular direct
pointers (which can point to data or code and that you find on the stack
during backtraces etc), while '%pF' is for C function pointer types.

On most architectures, the two mean exactly the same thing, but some
architectures use an indirect pointer for C function pointers, where the
function pointer points to a function descriptor (which in turn contains
the actual pointer to the code).  The '%pF' code automatically does the
appropriate function descriptor dereference on such architectures.

4d8a743cdd vsprintf: add infrastructure support for extended '%p' specifiers
This expands the kernel '%p' handling with an arbitrary alphanumberic
specifier extension string immediately following the '%p'.  Right now
it's just being ignored, but the next commit will start adding some
specific pointer type extensions.

NOTE! The reason the extension is appended to the '%p' is to allow
minimal gcc type checking: gcc will still see the '%p' and will check
that the argument passed in is indeed a pointer, and yet will not
complain about the extended information that gcc doesn't understand
about (on the other hand, it also won't actually check that the pointer
type and the extension are compatible).

Alphanumeric characters were chosen because there is no sane existing
use for a string format with a hex pointer representation immediately
followed by alphanumerics (which is what such a format string would have
traditionally resulted in).

97f8571e66 pxamci: fix byte aligned DMA transfers
The pxa27x DMA controller defaults to 64-bit alignment. This caused
the SCR reads to fail (and, depending on card type, error out) when
card->raw_scr was not aligned on a 8-byte boundary.

For performance reasons all scatter-gather addresses passed to
pxamci_request should be aligned on 8-byte boundaries, but if
this can't be guaranteed, byte aligned DMA transfers in the
have to be enabled in the controller to get correct behaviour.

09ca8adbe9 Revert "USB: don't explicitly reenable root-hub status interrupts"
This reverts commit e872154921.

Andrey Borzenkov reports that it resulted in a totally hung machine for
him when loading the OHCI driver.  Extensive netconsole capture with
SysRq output shows that modprobe gets stuck in ohci_hub_status_data()
when probing and enabling the OHCI controller, see for example

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/5/236

for an analysis.

The problem appears to be an interrupt flood triggered by the commit
that gets reverted, and Andrey confirmed that the revert makes things
work for him again.

bdb2b8cab4 [SCSI] erase invalid data returned by device
This patch (as1108) fixes a problem that can occur with certain USB
mass-storage devices: They return invalid data together with a residue
indicating that the data should be ignored.  Rather than leave the
invalid data in a transfer buffer, where it can get misinterpreted,
the patch clears the invalid portion of the buffer.

This solves a problem (wrong write-protect setting detected) reported
by Maciej Rutecki and Peter Teoh.

35baff256d KVM: IOAPIC: Fix level-triggered irq injection hang
The "remote_irr" variable is used to indicate an interrupt
which has been received by the LAPIC, but not acked.

In our EOI handler, we unset remote_irr and re-inject the
interrupt if the interrupt line is still asserted.

However, we do not set remote_irr here, leading to a
situation where if kvm_ioapic_set_irq() is called, then we go
ahead and call ioapic_service(). This means that IRR is
re-asserted even though the interrupt is currently in service
(i.e. LAPIC IRR is cleared and ISR/TMR set)

The issue with this is that when the currently executing
interrupt handler finishes and writes LAPIC EOI, then TMR is
unset and EOI sent to the IOAPIC. Since IRR is now asserted,
but TMR is not, then when the second interrupt is handled,
no EOI is sent and if there is any pending interrupt, it is
not re-injected.

This fixes a hang only seen while running mke2fs -j on an
8Gb virtio disk backed by a fully sparse raw file, with
aliguori "avoid fragmented virtio-blk transfers by copying"
changes.

- unstatic struct pagemap_walk, so two threads won't fsckup each other

- pagemap_read() contains two calls to ptrace_may_attach(), second one

d823f6bfec devcgroup: fix odd behaviour when writing 'a' to devices.allow
# cat /devcg/devices.list
 a *:* rwm
 # echo a > devices.allow
 # cat /devcg/devices.list
 a *:* rwm
 a 0:0 rwm

This is odd and maybe confusing.  With this patch, writing 'a' to
devices.allow will add 'a *:* rwm' to the whitelist.

Also a few fixes and updates to the document.

2d5c1be887 mm: switch node meminfo Active & Inactive pages to Kbytes
There is a bug in the output of /sys/devices/system/node/node[n]/meminfo
where the Active and Inactive values are in pages instead of Kbytes.

Looks like this occurred back in 2.6.20 when the code was changed
over to use node_page_state().

acb7669c12 cpumask: introduce new APIs
In linux-next there is a commit ("x86: Add performance variants of cpumask
operators") which, as part of the 4096 cpu support work adds some new APIs
for dealing with cpu masks.  Add trivial versions of these now so that
subsystems can update in a timely manner and avoid conflicts in linux-next
and the next merge window.

603ded16a3 olpc: sdhci: add quirk for the Marvell CaFe's interrupt timeout
The CaFe chip has a hardware bug that ends up with us getting a timeout
value that's too small, causing the following sorts of problems:

[   60.525138] mmcblk0: error -110 transferring data
[   60.531477] end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 1484353
[   60.533371] Buffer I/O error on device mmcblk0p2, logical block 181632
[   60.533371] lost page write due to I/O error on mmcblk0p2

Presumably this is an off-by-one error in the hardware.  Incrementing
the timeout count value that we stuff into the TIMEOUT_CONTROL register
gets us a value that works.  This bug was originally discovered by
Pierre Ossman, I believe.

[thanks to Robert Millan for proving that this was still a problem]

e08c1694d9 olpc: sdhci: add quirk for the Marvell CaFe's vdd/powerup issue
This has been sitting around unloved for way too long..

The Marvell CaFe chip's SD implementation chokes during card insertion
if one attempts to set the voltage and power up in the same
SDHCI_POWER_CONTROL register write.  This adds a quirk that does
that particular dance in two steps.

It also adds an entry to pci_ids.h for the CaFe chip's SD device.

491539982a cciss: read config to obtain max outstanding commands per controller
This patch changes the way we determine the maximum number of outstanding
commands for each controller.

Most Smart Array controllers can support up to 1024 commands, the notable
exceptions are the E200 and E200i.

The next generation of controllers which were just added support a mode of
operation called Zero Memory Raid (ZMR).  In this mode they only support
64 outstanding commands.  In Full Function Raid (FFR) mode they support
1024.

We have been setting the queue depth by arbitrarily assigning some value
for each controller.  We needed a better way to set the queue depth to
avoid lots of annoying "fifo full" messages.  So we made the driver a
little smarter.  We now read the config table and subtract 4 from the
returned value.  The -4 is to allow some room for ioctl calls which are
not tracked the same way as io commands are tracked.

Please consider this for inclusion.
