9ec52099e4 [PATCH] replace cad_pid by a struct pid
There are a few places in the kernel where the init task is signaled.  The
ctrl+alt+del sequence is one them.  It kills a task, usually init, using a
cached pid (cad_pid).

This patch replaces the pid_t by a struct pid to avoid pid wrap around
problem.  The struct pid is initialized at boot time in init() and can be
modified through systctl with

	/proc/sys/kernel/cad_pid

[ I haven't found any distro using it ? ]

It also introduces a small helper routine kill_cad_pid() which is used
where it seemed ok to use cad_pid instead of pid 1.

b68e31d0eb [PATCH] const struct tty_operations
As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of
structures in order to not have to document their locking.  One of these
structures was a struct tty_operations.  In order to const it in UML
without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of
tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to
be fixed.

This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const.  In all
cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations.  As an
extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra
warnings.

53 drivers are affected.  I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in
most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the
last six months.  serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

9361401eb7 [PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6]
Make it possible to disable the block layer.  Not all embedded devices require
it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require
the block layer to be present.

This patch does the following:

 (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev
     support.

 (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls
     an item that uses the block layer.  This includes:

     (*) Block I/O tracing.

     (*) Disk partition code.

     (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS.

     (*) The SCSI layer.  As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the
     	 block layer to do scheduling.  Some drivers that use SCSI facilities -
     	 such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this.

     (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM
     	 drivers.

     (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.

     (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by
     	 taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book.

 (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and
     linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set.  sector_div() is,
     however, still used in places, and so is still available.

 (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and
     parts of linux/fs.h.

 (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK
     is not enabled.

 (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are
     required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:

     (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).

 (*) Makes some /proc changes:

     (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.

     (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if
     given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.

 (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if
     CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined.  This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.

 (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return
     error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).

 (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if
     CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

94c12cc7d1 [S390] Inline assembly cleanup.
Major cleanup of all s390 inline assemblies. They now have a common
coding style. Quite a few have been shortened, mainly by using register
asm variables. Use of the EX_TABLE macro helps  as well. The atomic ops,
bit ops and locking inlines new use the Q-constraint if a newer gcc
is used.  That results in slightly better code.

Thanks to Christian Borntraeger for proof reading the changes.

a00bfd7147 [S390] dasd deadlock after state change pending interrupt.
The dasd_device_from_cdev function is called from interrupt context
to get the struct dasd_device associated with a ccw device. The
driver_data of the ccw device points to the dasd_devmap structure
which contains the pointer to the dasd_device structure. The lock
that protects the dasd_devmap structure is acquire with out irqsave.
To prevent the deadlock in dasd_device_from_cdev if it is called
from interrupt context the dependency to the dasd_devmap structure
needs to be removed. Let the driver_data of the ccw device point
to the dasd_device structure directly and use the ccw device lock
to protect the access.

2dbc2418ba [S390] zcrypt user space interface.
The user space interface of the zcrypt device driver implements the old
user space interface as defined by the old z90crypt driver. Everything
is there, the /dev/z90crypt misc character device, all the lovely ioctls
and the /proc file. Even writing to the z90crypt proc file to configure
the crypto device still works. It stands to reason to remove the proc
write function someday since a much cleaner configuration via the sysfs
is now available.

The ap bus device drivers register crypto cards to the zcrypt user
space interface. The request router of the user space interface
picks one of the registered cards based on the predicted latency
for the request and calls the driver via a callback found in the
zcrypt_ops of the device. The request router only knows which
operations the card can do and the minimum / maximum number of bits
a request can have.

1534c3820c [S390] zcrypt adjunct processor bus.
Add a bus for the adjunct processor interface. Up to 64 devices can
be connect to the ap bus interface, each device with 16 domains. That
makes 1024 message queues. The interface is asynchronous, the answer
to a message sent to a queue needs to be received at some later point
in time. Unfortunately the interface does not provide interrupts when
a message reply is pending. So the ap bus needs to implement some
fancy polling, each active queue is polled once per 1/HZ second or
continuously if an idle cpus exsists and the poll thread is activ
(see poll_thread parameter).

The ap bus uses the sysfs path /sys/bus/ap and has two bus attributes,
ap_domain and config_time. The ap_domain selects one of the 16 domains
to be used for this system. This limits the maximum number of ap devices
to 64. The config_time attribute contains the number of seconds between
two ap bus scans to find new devices.

The ap bus uses the modalias entries of the form "ap:tN" to autoload
the ap driver for hardware type N. Currently known types are:
3 - PCICC, 4 - PCICA, 5 - PCIXCC, 6 - CEX2A and 7 - CEX2C.
