4a3a255289 sparc: explicitly cast negative phandle checks to s32
When we switched sparc from using 'int's to 'phandle's (which is a u32), we
neglected to do anything with the various checks for -1.  For those tests,
explicitly cast the phandles to s32.

Pull in recent changes from the main dtc repository. These changes
primarily allow multiple device trees to be declared which are merged
by dtc. This feature allows us to include a basic dts file and then
provide more information for the specific system through the merging
functionality.

fe14042358 of/flattree: Refactor unflatten_device_tree and add fdt_unflatten_tree
unflatten_device_tree has two dependencies on things that happen
during boot time.  Firstly, it references the initial device tree
directly. Secondly, it allocates memory using the early boot
allocator.  This patch factors out these dependencies and uses
the new __unflatten_device_tree function to implement a driver-visible
fdt_unflatten_tree function, which can be used to unflatten a
blob after boot time.

V2:
- remove extra __va() call
- make dt_alloc functions return void *.  This doesn't fix the general
  strangeness in this code that constantly casts back and forth between
  unsigned long and __be32 *

unflatten_dt_node is a helper function that does most of the work to

e6ce1324e4 of/flattree: Add Kconfig for EARLY_FLATTREE
The device tree code is now in two pieces: some which can be used generically
on any platform which selects CONFIG_OF_FLATTREE, and some early which is used
at boot time on only a few architectures.  This patch segregates the early
code so that only those architectures which care about it need compile it.
This also means that some of the requirements in the early code (such as
a cmd_line variable) that most architectures (e.g. X86) don't provide
can be ignored.

0131d8973c of/address: use proper endianess in get_flags
This patch changes u32 to __be32 for all "ranges", "prop" and "addr" and
such. Those variables are pointing to the device tree which contains
integers in big endian format.

Most functions are doing it right because of_read_number() is doing the
right thing for them. of_bus_isa_get_flags(), of_bus_pci_get_flags() and
of_bus_isa_map() were accessing the data directly and were doing it wrong.

aab94339cd of: Add support for linking device tree blobs into vmlinux
This patch adds support for linking device tree blob(s) into
vmlinux. Modifies asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h to add linking
.dtb sections into vmlinux. To maintain compatiblity with the of/fdt
driver code platforms MUST copy the blob to a non-init memory location
before the kernel frees the .init.* sections in the image.

Modifies scripts/Makefile.lib to add a kbuild command to
compile DTS files to device tree blobs and a rule to create objects to
wrap the blobs for linking.

STRUCT_ALIGNMENT is defined in vmlinux.lds.h for use in the rule to
create wrapper objects for the dtb in Makefile.lib.  The
STRUCT_ALIGN() macro in vmlinux.lds.h is modified to use the
STRUCT_ALIGNMENT definition.

The DTB's are placed on 32 byte boundries to allow parsing the blob
with driver/of/fdt.c during early boot without having to copy the blob
to get the structure alignment GCC expects.

A DTB is linked in by adding the DTB object to the list of objects to
be linked into vmlinux in the archtecture specific Makefile using
   obj-y += foo.dtb.o

81711cee93 arch/tile: handle rt_sigreturn() more cleanly
The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.

However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space.  Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.

Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn.  We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code.  We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.

bc4cf2bb27 arch/tile: handle CLONE_SETTLS in copy_thread(), not user space
Previously we were just setting up the "tp" register in the
new task as started by clone() in libc.  However, this is not
quite right, since in principle a signal might be delivered to
the new task before it had its TLS set up.  (Of course, this race
window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value
in the new task, in principle.  But in any case, we are now doing
this exactly the way all other architectures do it.)

This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will
be submitting upstream will not set TLS in user space any more,
so it will only work on a kernel that has this fix.  It should
also be taken for 2.6.36.x in the stable tree if possible.

0e4d413af1 [media] gspca - sonixj: Better handling of the bridge registers 0x01 and 0x17
The initial values of the registers 0x01 and 0x17 are taken from the sensor
table at capture start and updated according to the flag PDN_INV.

Their values are updated at each step of the capture initialization and
memorized for reuse in capture stop.

This patch also fixed automatically some bad hardcoded values of these
registers.
