d0fae18f1b md: clean up irregularity with raid autodetect
When a raid1 array is stopped, all components currently get added to the list
for auto-detection.  However we should really only add components that were
found by autodetection in the first place.  So add a flag to record that
information, and use it.

8311c29d40 md: reduce CPU wastage on idle md array with a write-intent bitmap
On an md array with a write-intent bitmap, a thread wakes up every few seconds
and scans the bitmap looking for work to do.  If the array is idle, there will
be no work to do, but a lot of scanning is done to discover this.

So cache the fact that the bitmap is completely clean, and avoid scanning the
whole bitmap when the cache is known to be clean.

3715863aa1 iommu: export iommu_is_span_boundary helper function
iommu_is_span_boundary is used internally in the IOMMU helper
(lib/iommu-helper.c), a primitive function that judges whether a memory area
spans LLD's segment boundary or not.

It's difficult to convert some IOMMUs to use the IOMMU helper but
iommu_is_span_boundary is still useful for them.  So this patch exports it.

This is needed for the parisc iommu fixes.

87ffbe679e cris: correct syscall numbers in unistd.h for timerfd_settime and timerfd_gettime
Last commit for unistd was not correct, it only had a partial update of
syscall numbers for __NR_timerfd_settime and __NR_timerfd_gettime.  Also,
NR_syscalls was not incremented for the new syscalls.

07f2402b4a cris: correct usage of __user for copy to and from user space in lib/usercopy and uaccess.h
Function __copy_user_zeroing in arch/lib/usercopy.c had the wrong parameter
set as __user, and in include/asm-cris/uaccess.h, it was not set at all for
some of the calling functions.

This will cut the number of warnings quite dramatically when using sparse.

While we're here, remove useless CVS log and correct confusing typo.

8289546e57 memcg: remove mem_cgroup_uncharge
Nothing uses mem_cgroup_uncharge apart from mem_cgroup_uncharge_page, (a
trivial wrapper around it) and mem_cgroup_end_migration (which does the same
as mem_cgroup_uncharge_page).  And it often ends up having to lock just to let
its caller unlock.  Remove it (but leave the silly locking until a later
patch).

Moved mem_cgroup_cache_charge next to mem_cgroup_charge in memcontrol.h.

9442ec9df4 memcg: bad page if page_cgroup when free
Replace free_hot_cold_page's VM_BUG_ON(page_get_page_cgroup(page)) by a "Bad
page state" and clear: most users don't have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM on, and if it
were set here, it'd likely cause corruption when the page is reused.

Don't use page_assign_page_cgroup to clear it: that should be private to
memcontrol.c, and always called with the lock taken; and memmap_init_zone
doesn't need it either - like page->mapping and other pointers throughout the
kernel, Linux assumes pointers in zeroed structures are NULL pointers.

Instead use page_reset_bad_cgroup, added to memcontrol.h for this only.

5cba6d22e3 ndelay(): switch to C function to avoid 64-bit division
We should be able to do ndelay(some_u64), but that can cause a call to
__divdi3() to be emitted because the ndelay() macros does a divide.

Fix it by switching to static inline which will force the u64 arg to be
treated as an unsigned long.  udelay() takes an unsigned long arg.

7560fa60fc gpio: <linux/gpio.h> and "no GPIO support here" stubs
Add a <linux/gpio.h> defining fail/warn stubs for GPIO calls on platforms that
don't support the GPIO programming interface.  That includes the arch-specific
implementation glue otherwise.

This facilitates a new model for GPIO usage: drivers that can use GPIOs if
they're available, but don't require them.  One example of such a driver is
NAND driver for various FreeScale chips.  On platforms update with GPIO
support, they can be used instead of a worst-case delay to verify that the
BUSY signal is off.

(Also includes a couple minor unrelated doc updates.)

  sched: group scheduler, fix fairness of cpu bandwidth allocation for task groups

Namely:
 - very frequent wakeups on SMP, reported by PowerTop users.
 - cacheline trashing on (large) SMP
 - some latencies larger than 500ms

While there is a mergeable patch to fix the latter, the former issues
are not fixable in a manner suitable for .25 (we're at -rc3 now).

Hence we revert them and try again in v2.6.26.

7a85f8896f block: restore the meaning of rq->data_len to the true data length
The meaning of rq->data_len was changed to the length of an allocated
buffer from the true data length. It breaks SG_IO friends and
bsg. This patch restores the meaning of rq->data_len to the true data
length and adds rq->extra_len to store an extended length (due to
drain buffer and padding).

This patch also removes the code to update bio in blk_rq_map_user
introduced by the commit 40b01b9bbd.
The commit adjusts bio according to memory alignment
(queue_dma_alignment). However, memory alignment is NOT padding
alignment. This adjustment also breaks SG_IO friends and bsg. Padding
alignment needs to be fixed in a proper way (by a separate patch).

Arjan bisected down a boot-time hang to this, saying:
  ".. it prevents the kernel to finish booting on my (Penryn based)

and while it's not clear exactly what triggers it, at this stage we're

674eea0fc4 KVM: Make the supported cpuid list a host property rather than a vm property
One of the use cases for the supported cpuid list is to create a "greatest
common denominator" of cpu capabilities in a server farm.  As such, it is
useful to be able to get the list without creating a virtual machine first.

Since the code does not depend on the vm in any way, all that is needed is
to move it to the device ioctl handler.  The capability identifier is also
changed so that binaries made against -rc1 will fail gracefully.

This patch sets KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT to (-1)UL. As the value is
compared with physical addresses TASK_SIZE makes no sense. Machines
where the RAM addresses start above TASK_SIZE kexecs eats all memory

94a3f78566 [ARM] 4837/1: make __get_unaligned_*() return unsigned types
Eric Sandeen tracked an XFS on ARM corruption bug down to a function
under fs/xfs/ involving some get_unaligned() calls on u64 pointers.
As it turns out, calling ARM's get_unaligned() on a u64 pointer
pointing to the following byte sequence:

	80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87

would return ffffffff83828180 (LE mode.)  This turns out to be
because of implicit u8 -> int promotion in ARM's implementation of
various helpers for get_unaligned(), causing them to accidentally
return signed instead of unsigned values, which in turn caused the
subsequent casts to unsigned long long in __get_unaligned_8_[bl]e()
to sign-extend the lower words.

Fix by casting the return values of __get_unaligned_[24]_[bl]e()
to unsigned int.

53c5858810 x86 ptrace: fix ptrace_bts_config structure declaration
The 2.6.25 ptrace_bts_config structure in asm-x86/ptrace-abi.h
is defined with u32 types:

   #include <asm/types.h>

   /* configuration/status structure used in PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG and
      PTRACE_BTS_STATUS commands.
   */
   struct ptrace_bts_config {
           /* requested or actual size of BTS buffer in bytes */
           u32 size;
           /* bitmask of below flags */
           u32 flags;
           /* buffer overflow signal */
           u32 signal;
           /* actual size of bts_struct in bytes */
           u32 bts_size;
   };
   #endif

But u32 is only accessible in asm-x86/types.h if __KERNEL__,
leading to compile errors when ptrace.h is included from
user-space. The double-underscore versions that are exported
to user-space in asm-x86/types.h should be used instead.

cded932b75 x86: fix pmd_bad and pud_bad to support huge pages
I recently stumbled upon a problem in the support for huge pages. If a
program using huge pages does not explicitly unmap them, they remain
mapped (and therefore, are lost) after the program exits.

I observed that the free huge page count in /proc/meminfo decreased when
running my program, and it did not increase after the program exited.
After running the program a few times, no more huge pages could be
allocated.

The reason for this seems to be that the x86 pmd_bad and pud_bad
consider pmd/pud entries having the PSE bit set invalid. I think there
is nothing wrong with this bit being set, it just indicates that the
lowest level of translation has been reached. This bit has to be (and
is) checked after the basic validity of the entry has been checked, like
in this fragment from follow_page() in mm/memory.c:

  if (pmd_none(*pmd) || unlikely(pmd_bad(*pmd)))
          goto no_page_table;

  if (pmd_huge(*pmd)) {
          BUG_ON(flags & FOLL_GET);
          page = follow_huge_pmd(mm, address, pmd, flags & FOLL_WRITE);
          goto out;
  }

Note that this code currently doesn't work as intended if the pmd refers
to a huge page, the pmd_huge() check can not be reached if the page is
huge.

Extending pmd_bad() (and, for future 1GB page support, pud_bad()) to
allow for the PSE bit being set fixes this. For similar reasons,
allowing the NX bit being set is necessary, too. I have seen huge pages
having the NX bit set in their pmd entry, which would cause the same
problem.

2232c2d8e0 rcu: add support for dynamic ticks and preempt rcu
The PREEMPT-RCU can get stuck if a CPU goes idle and NO_HZ is set. The
idle CPU will not progress the RCU through its grace period and a
synchronize_rcu my get stuck. Without this patch I have a box that will
not boot when PREEMPT_RCU and NO_HZ are set. That same box boots fine
with this patch.

This patch comes from the -rt kernel where it has been tested for
several months.
