If we configure with CONFIG_SMP=n or set NR_CPUS less than the number of

When power_pmu_disable() removes the given event from a particular index into
cpuhw->event[], it shuffles down higher event[] entries. But, this array is
paired with cpuhw->events[] and cpuhw->flags[] so should shuffle them
similarly.
If these arrays get out of sync, code such as power_check_constraints() will
fail. This caused a bug where events were temporarily disabled and then failed
to be re-enabled; subsequent code tried to write_pmc() with its (disabled) idx
of 0, causing a message "oops trying to write PMC0". This triggers this bug on

The bridge protocol lives dangerously by having incestuous relations
with the IP stack. In this instance an abomination has been created
where a bogus IPCB area from a bridged packet leads to a crash in
the IP stack because it's interpreted as IP options.
This patch papers over the problem by clearing the IPCB area in that
particular spot. To fix this properly we'd also need to parse any
IP options if present but I'm way too lazy for that.

Repeated ttm_page_alloc_init/fini fails noisily because the pool

Move it to kzalloc'ed memory.
Note that this patch drops the refcounting behavior of the pool

This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()',
'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply
set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make
every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating
the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly.
Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic
superblock synchronization optimization which is about
preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up
even if there is nothing to synchronize.
This patch does not do any functional change, just adds
accessor functions.

First remove items from work_list as soon as we start working on them. This
means we don't have to track any pending or visited state and can get
rid of all the RCU magic freeing the work items - we can simply free
them once the operation has finished. Second use a real completion for
tracking synchronous requests - if the caller sets the completion pointer
we complete it, otherwise use it as a boolean indicator that we can free
the work item directly. Third unify struct wb_writeback_args and struct
bdi_work into a single data structure, wb_writeback_work. Previous we
set all parameters into a struct wb_writeback_args, copied it into
struct bdi_work, copied it again on the stack to use it there. Instead
of just allocate one structure dynamically or on the stack and use it
all the way through the stack.

In commit a4ed89c I changed the definition used when VERBOSE_DEBUG is

When trying to netboot a Linksys WRT54GS WLAN router, the bootup fails,
because of following error message:

[ 0.424000] b44: Invalid MAC address found in EEPROM
[ 0.432000] b44 ssb0:1: Problem fetching invariants of chip,aborting
[ 0.436000] b44: probe of ssb0:1 failed with error -22
...
The router uses a CFE bootloader, but most of the needed environment
variables for network card initialization, are not available from CFE
via printenv and even though not via cfe_getenv().
The required environment variables are saved in a special partition
in flash memory. The attached patch implement nvram_getenv and enables
bootup via NFS root on my router.
Most of the patch is extracted from the OpenWrt subversion repository and
stripped down and cleaned up to just fix this issue.

As a result we can remove the dynamic encoding of instructions in

As documented in the GCC 4.5 docs [1] -mmcount-ra-address uses register

On 64-bit kernels $12 is t0 but in 32-bit kernels it is t4 so we need to
use $12 instead of t0 here to be correct for both kernel types.
