b981c59189 ACPI: add a Kconfig option for ACPI procfs interface
Add a kconfig option CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS to make procfs interface
a configurable attribute of ACPI.

No procfs interface is actually deprecated,
and no sysfs interface is added in this patch.

CONGI_ACPI_PROCFS is used to mark procfs interface as deprecated
once the same function is duplicated in sysfs.

        and re-initialize its internal RAID structure.
        Without this change, megaraid driver either panics or fails to
        initialize the adapter during kdump's second kernel boot
        if there are pending commands or interrupts from other devices
        sharing the same IRQ.
2.      Authors email-id domain name changed from lsil.com to lsi.com.

e3db7691e9 [PATCH] NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()
NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()

    invalidate_inode_pages2() may find the dirty bit has been set on a page
    owing to the fact that the page may still be mapped after it was locked.
    Only after the call to unmap_mapping_range() are we sure that the page
    can no longer be dirtied.
    In order to fix this, NFS has hooked the releasepage() method and tries
    to write the page out between the call to unmap_mapping_range() and the
    call to remove_mapping(). This, however leads to deadlocks in the page
    reclaim code, where the page may be locked without holding a reference
    to the inode or dentry.

    Fix is to add a new address_space_operation, launder_page(), which will
    attempt to write out a dirty page without releasing the page lock.

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

    Also, the bare SetPageDirty() can skew all sort of accounting leading to
    other nasties.

fea5f1e196 Revert "[PATCH] x86-64: Try multiple timer variants in check_timer"
This reverts commit b026872601, which has
been linked to several problem reports with IO-APIC and the timer.
Machines either don't boot because the timer doesn't happen, or we get
double timer interrupts because we end up double-routing the timer irq
through multiple interfaces.

See for example

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/16/101
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/3/9
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7789

about some of the discussion.

Patches to fix this cleanup exist (and have been confirmed to work fine
at least for some of the affected cases) and we'll revisit it for
2.6.21, but this late in the -rc series we're better off just reverting
the incomplete commit that caused the problems.

a6f36be326 [ARM] pass vma for flush_anon_page()
Since get_user_pages() may be used with processes other than the
current process and calls flush_anon_page(), flush_anon_page() has to
cope in some way with non-current processes.

It may not be appropriate, or even desirable to flush a region of
virtual memory cache in the current process when that is different to
the process that we want the flush to occur for.

Therefore, pass the vma into flush_anon_page() so that the architecture
can work out whether the 'vmaddr' is for the current process or not.

b119dc3f99 i2c: Migration aids for i2c_adapter.dev removal
Flag i2c_adapter.dev for removal after userspace tools get upgraded, and
include a near-term code migration aid to facilitate this:

 - The class device gets the name attribute it should have had.  This
   was previously (wrongly) associated with the i2c_adapter.dev node.
   Sysfs based tools and libraries can start converting right away.

 - Issue a warning for legacy adapter drivers that don't provide any
   physical device node; so systems with those drivers will know to
   fix this problem earlier.

This is one of a series of patches to help the I2C stack become a better
citizen of the Linux Driver Model world.

5f8364b7d6 UHCI: module parameter to ignore overcurrent changes
Certain boards seem to like to issue false overcurrent notifications,
for example on ports that don't have anything connected to them.  This
looks like a hardware error, at the level of noise to those ports'
overcurrent input signals (or non-debounced VBUS comparators).  This
surfaces to users as truly massive amounts of syslog spam from khubd
(which is appropriate for real hardware problems, except for the
volume from multiple ports).

Using this new "ignore_oc" flag helps such systems work more sanely,
by preventing such indications from getting to khubd (and spamming
syslog).  The downside is of course that true overcurrent errors will
be masked; they'll appear as spontaneous disconnects, without the
diagnostics that will let users troubleshoot issues like
short-circuited cables.  In addition, controllers with no devices
attached will be forced to poll for new devices rather than relying on
interrupts, since each overcurrent event would generate a new
interrupt.

This patch (as826) is essentially a copy of David Brownell's ignore_oc
patch for ehci-hcd, ported to uhci-hcd.

Add support for the Fintek F71872F/FG Super-I/O chip. It is basically the
same as the Fintek F71805F/FG as far as hardware monitoring is concerned,
with two additional internal voltages monitored (VSB and battery), and 6
VID inputs (not yet supported.)

To make things a bit more confusing, two of the voltage input pins (in4
and in8) can be used for other functions. The driver reads the pin
configuration from the Super-I/O configuration space to decide whether
it must create interface files for these inputs or not.

Many thanks to Nikolay Derkach for testing the early iterations of this
code and reporting bugs.

ad04d5c387 i2c: Cleanups to the i2c-nforce2 bus driver
Summary of changes:

- fixes:
   o legacy I/O region size is 64 bytes, not 8 bytes
- general cleanup:
   o removed code for the unsupported I2C block data, block data,
      proc call and block proc call transfer modes
   o removed detail warnings about unsupported modes that are
     covered in a general warning (unsupported transaction...)
     anyway
   o removed necessity of a definition of struct i2c_adapter
   o moved definition of struct i2c_algorithm, making forward
     declarations of nforce2_access and nforce2_func unnecessary
- minor changes:
   o in the description mention the nForce 5xx chipsets
   o changes my e-mail address in MODULE_AUTHOR

Theses cleanups shrink the driver binary size from 4.0 kB to 2.7 kB
on i386.

8d94cc50aa [PATCH] spi: stabilize PIO mode transfers on PXA2xx systems
Stabilize PIO mode transfers against a range of word sizes and FIFO
thresholds and fixes word size setup/override issues.

1) 16 and 32 bit DMA/PIO transfers broken due to timing differences.
2) Potential for bad transfer counts due to transfer size assumptions.
3) Setup function broken is multiple ways.
4) Per transfer bit_per_word changes break DMA setup in pump_tranfers.
5) False positive timeout are not errors.
6) Changes in pxa2xx_spi_chip not effective in calls to setup.
7) Timeout scaling wrong for PXA255 NSSP.
8) Driver leaks memory while busy during unloading.

Known issues:

SPI_CS_HIGH and SPI_LSB_FIRST settings in struct spi_device are not handled.

Testing:

This patch has been test against the "random length, random bits/word,
random data (verified on loopback) and stepped baud rate by octaves
(3.6MHz to 115kHz)" test.  It is robust in PIO mode, using any
combination of tx and rx thresholds, and also in DMA mode (which
internally computes the thresholds).

Much thanks to Ned Forrester for exhaustive reviews, fixes and testing.
The driver is substantially better for his efforts.

af249982dc V4L/DVB (4887): Remove the broken VIDEO_ZR36120 driver
The VIDEO_ZR36120 driver has:
- already been marked as BROKEN in 2.6.0 three years ago and
- is still marked as BROKEN.
Drivers that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seem to be 
unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future.
But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is still 
present in the older kernel releases.

329409aeda [PATCH] fault injection: stacktrace filtering
This patch provides stacktrace filtering feature.

The stacktrace filter allows failing only for the caller you are
interested in.

For example someone may want to inject kmalloc() failures into
only e100 module. they want to inject not only direct kmalloc() call,
but also indirect allocation, too.

- e100_poll --> netif_receive_skb --> packet_rcv_spkt --> skb_clone
  --> kmem_cache_alloc

This patch enables to detect function calls like this by stacktrace
and inject failures. The script Documentaion/fault-injection/failmodule.sh
helps it.

The range of text section of loaded e100 is expected to be
[/sys/module/e100/sections/.text, /sys/module/e100/sections/.exit.text)

So failmodule.sh stores these values into /debug/failslab/address-start
and /debug/failslab/address-end. The maximum stacktrace depth is specified
by /debug/failslab/stacktrace-depth.

Please see the example that demonstrates how to inject slab allocation
failures only for a specific module
in Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt

8a8b6502fb [PATCH] fault-injection capability for kmalloc
This patch provides fault-injection capability for kmalloc.

Boot option:

failslab=<interval>,<probability>,<space>,<times>

	<interval> -- specifies the interval of failures.

	<probability> -- specifies how often it should fail in percent.

	<space> -- specifies the size of free space where memory can be
		   allocated safely in bytes.

	<times> -- specifies how many times failures may happen at most.

Debugfs:

/debug/failslab/interval
/debug/failslab/probability
/debug/failslab/specifies
/debug/failslab/times
/debug/failslab/ignore-gfp-highmem
/debug/failslab/ignore-gfp-wait

Example:

	failslab=10,100,0,-1

slab allocation (kmalloc(), kmem_cache_alloc(),..) fails once per 10 times.

de1ba09b21 [PATCH] fault injection: documentation and scripts
This patch set provides some fault-injection capabilities.

- kmalloc() failures

- alloc_pages() failures

- disk IO errors

We can see what really happens if those failures happen.

In order to enable these fault-injection capabilities:

1. Enable relevant config options (CONFIG_FAILSLAB, CONFIG_PAGE_ALLOC,
   CONFIG_MAKE_REQUEST) and if you want to configure them via debugfs,
   enable CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS.

2. Build and boot with this kernel

3. Configure fault-injection capabilities behavior by boot option or debugfs

   - Boot option

     failslab=
     fail_page_alloc=
     fail_make_request=

   - Debugfs

     /debug/failslab/*
     /debug/fail_page_alloc/*
     /debug/fail_make_request/*

   Please refer to the Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt
   for details.

4. See what really happens.

22f2e28017 [PATCH] get_options to allow a hypenated range for isolcpus
This allows a hyphenated range of positive numbers in the string passed
to command line helper function, get_options.

Currently the command line option "isolcpus=" takes as its argument a
list of cpus.

Format: <cpu number>,...,<cpu number>
Valid values of <cpu_number>  include all cpus, 0 to "number of CPUs in
system - 1". This can get extremely long when isolating the majority of
cpus on a large system.  The kernel isolcpus code would not need any
changing to use this feature.  To use it, the change would be in the
command line format for 'isolcpus='
Format:
<cpu number>,...,<cpu number>
or
<cpu number>-<cpu number>  (must be a positive range in ascending
order.)
or a mixture
<cpu number>,...,<cpu number>-<cpu number>

d6392f873f [PATCH] fuse: add support for block device based filesystems
I never intended this, but people started using fuse to implement block device
based "real" filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs).

The following four patches add better support for these kinds of filesystems.
Unlike "normal" fuse filesystems, using this feature should require superuser
privileges (enforced by the fusermount utility).

Thanks to Szabolcs Szakacsits for the input and testing.

This patch adds a 'fuseblk' filesystem type, which is only different from the
'fuse' filesystem type in how the 'dev_name' mount argument is interpreted.

16663a87ad ACPI: ibm-acpi: implement fan watchdog command
This patch implements a fan control safety watchdog, by request of the
authors of userspace fan control scripts.

When the watchdog timer expires, the equivalent action of a "fan enable"
command is executed.  The watchdog timer is reset at every reception of a
fan control command that could change the state of the fan itself.

This command is meant to be used by userspace fan control daemons, to make
sure the fan is never left set to an unsafe level because of userspace
problems.

Users of the X31/X40/X41 "speed" command are on their own, the current
implementation of "speed" is just too incomplete to be used safely,
anyway.  Better to never use it, and just use the "level" command instead.

The watchdog is programmed using echo "watchdog <number>" > fan, where
number is the number of seconds to wait before doing an "enable", and zero
disables the watchdog.

60eb0b35a9 ACPI: ibm-acpi: Implement direct-ec-access thermal reading modes for up to 16 sensors
This patch extends ibm-acpi to support reading thermal sensors directly
through ACPI EC register access.  It uses a DMI match to detect ThinkPads
with a new-style embedded controller, that are known to have forward-
compatible register maps and use 0x00 to fill in non-used registers and
export thermal sensors at EC offsets 0x78-7F and 0xC0-C7.

Direct ACPI EC register access is implemented for 8-sensor and 16-sensor
new-style ThinkPad controller firmwares as an experimental feature.  The
code does some limited sanity checks on the temperatures read through EC
access, and will default to the old ACPI TMP0-7 mode if anything is amiss.

Userspace ABI is not changed for 8 sensors, but /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal is
extended for 16 sensors if the firmware supports 16 sensors.

A documentation update is also provided.

The information about the ThinkPad register map was determined by studying
ibm-acpi "ecdump" output from various ThinkPad models, submitted by
subscribers of the linux-thinkpad mailinglist.  Futher information was
gathered from the DSDT tables, as they describe the EC register map in
recent ThinkPads.

DSDT source shows that TMP0-7 access and direct register access are
actually the same thing on these firmwares, but unfortunately IBM never
did update their DSDT EC register map to export TMP8-TMP15 for the second
range of sensors.

8542b200cb [PATCH] paravirt: Add option to allow skipping the timer check
Add a way to disable the timer IRQ routing check via a boot option.  The
VMI timer code uses this to avoid triggering the pester Mingo code, which
probes for some very unusual and broken motherboard routings.  It fires
100% of the time when using a paravirtual delay mechanism instead of using
a realtime delay, since there is no elapsed real time, and the 4 timer IRQs
have not yet been delivered.

In addition, it is entirely possible, though improbable, that this bug
could surface on real hardware which picks a particularly bad time to enter
SMM mode, causing a long latency during one of the timer IRQs.

While here, make check_timer be __init.

a3c479772c [NETFILTER]: Mark old IPv4-only connection tracking scheduled for removal
Also remove the references to "new connection tracking" from Kconfig.
After some short stabilization period of the new connection tracking
helpers/NAT code the old one will be removed.

0b251df103 [NETFILTER]: Kill ip_queue from feature removal schedule.
We really can't remove ip_queue. Many users use this, there is no binary
compatible interface and even the compat replacement for the originally
statically linked library doesn't work. There is also no real necessity
to remove the code, so the feature-removal-schedule entry should be
removed instead.
