9dcb5f477f b43: properly request pcmcia IRQ
PCMCIA needs an additional step to request the IRQ.

No need to add code to release the IRQ here, as that's done
automatically in pcmcia_disable_device().

440cb58a7a b43legacy: fix shared IRQ race condition
Fix an IRQ race condition in b43legacy. If we call
b43legacy_wireless_core_stop(), it will set the status of the device to
INITIALIZED and the IRQ handler won't care any longer about IRQs, thus the
kernel will disable the IRQ if it's shared (unless we boot it with the
'irqpoll' option). So we must disable IRQs before changing the device
status.

This sequence happens with

Fix this by always re-allocating the rfkill stuff before register.

7c826a0b84 add support for smc91x ethernet interface on zylonite
This patch adds LAN91C111 ethernet interface support for zylonite
(a.k.a Marvell's PXA3xx Development Platform) with smc91x driver.

It would be better if a patch would support zylonite along with all
other PXA boards with a single binary of smc91x driver, but it looks
quite difficult for the moment, so ugly #ifdef is still used here.

cf06ffb4df sky2: handle advanced error recovery config issues
The PCI AER support may not work for a couple of reasons.
It may not be configured into the kernel or there may be a BIOS
bug that prevents MMCONFIG from working.  If MMCONFIG doesn't work
then the PCI registers that control AER will not be accessible via
pci_read_config functions; luckly there is another window to access
PCI space in the device, so use that.

ecd744eec3 x86 - 32-bit ptrace emulation mishandles 6th arg
[ jdike - Pushing Chuck's patch - see
http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/9/16/261 for some history and a test
program.  UML is also broken without this patch - its processes get
SIGBUS from the corrupt 6th argument to mmap being interpretted as a
file offset ]

When the 32-bit vDSO is used to make a system call, the %ebp register for
the 6th syscall arg has to be loaded from the user stack (where it's pushed
by the vDSO user code).  The native i386 kernel always does this before
stopping for syscall tracing, so %ebp can be seen and modified via ptrace
to access the 6th syscall argument.  The x86-64 kernel fails to do this,
presenting the stack address to ptrace instead.  This makes the %rbp value
seen by 64-bit ptrace of a 32-bit process, and the %ebp value seen by a
32-bit caller of ptrace, both differ from the native i386 behavior.

This patch fixes the problem by putting the word loaded from the user stack
into %rbp before calling syscall_trace_enter, and reloading the 6th syscall
argument from there afterwards (so ptrace can change it).  This makes the
behavior match that of i386 kernels.

fd181c72a3 x86_64: ia32 ptrace THREAD_AREA fix
The addr argument to PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA and PTRACE_SET_THREAD_AREA is
not a magic constant.  It's derived from the segment register values being
used, which are computed originally from the index used with set_thread_area.
The value does not need to match what a native i386 kernel would accept.
It needs to match the segment selectors that can actually be in use in this
32-bit process.  The 64-bit ptrace support for PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA
(normally used only on 32-bit processes) is correct, but the 32-bit emulation
of ptrace is broken.

3c5fd9c77d [FUTEX] Fix address computation in compat code.
compat_exit_robust_list() computes a pointer to the
futex entry in userspace as follows:

	(void __user *)entry + futex_offset

'entry' is a 'struct robust_list __user *', and
'futex_offset' is a 'compat_long_t' (typically a 's32').

Things explode if the 32-bit sign bit is set in futex_offset.

Type promotion sign extends futex_offset to a 64-bit value before
adding it to 'entry'.

This triggered a problem on sparc64 running 32-bit applications which
would lock up a cpu looping forever in the fault handling for the
userspace load in handle_futex_death().

Compat userspace runs with address masking (wherein the cpu zeros out
the top 32-bits of every effective address given to a memory operation
instruction) so the sparc64 fault handler accounts for this by
zero'ing out the top 32-bits of the fault address too.

Since the kernel properly uses the compat_uptr interfaces, kernel side
accesses to compat userspace work too since they will only use
addresses with the top 32-bit clear.

Because of this compat futex layer bug we get into the following loop
when executing the get_user() load near the top of handle_futex_death():

1) load from address '0xfffffffff7f16bd8', FAULT
2) fault handler clears upper 32-bits, processes fault
   for address '0xf7f16bd8' which succeeds
3) goto #1

I want to thank Bernd Zeimetz, Josip Rodin, and Fabio Massimo Di Nitto
for their tireless efforts helping me track down this bug.

9b8f5f5737 [CIFS] fix oops on second mount to same server when null auth is used
When a share is mounted using no username, cifs_mount sets
volume_info.username as a NULL pointer, and the sesInfo userName as an
empty string. The volume_info.username is passed to a couple of other
functions to see if there is an existing unc or tcp connection that can
be used. These functions assume that the username will be a valid
string that can be passed to strncmp. If the pointer is NULL, then the
kernel will oops if there's an existing session to which the string
can be compared.

This patch changes cifs_mount to set volume_info.username to an empty
string in this situation, which prevents the oops and should make it
so that the comparison to other null auth sessions match.

b2f051ae39 frv: Remove bogus NO_IRQ = -1 define
The old NO_IRQ define some platforms had was long ago declared obsolete
and wrong. FRV should therefore not be re-introducing this, especially as
IRQs are usually unsigned in the kernel. The "no IRQ" case is defined to be
zero and Linus made this rather clear at the time.

arch/frv shows no dependancy on this but it might show up driver fixes
needing doing I guess

e6fe6649b4 sched: proper prototype for kernel/sched.c:migration_init()
This patch adds a proper prototype for migration_init() in
include/linux/sched.h

Since there's no point in always returning 0 to a caller that doesn't check
the return value it also changes the function to return void.

b82d9fdd84 sched: avoid large irq-latencies in smp-balancing
SMP balancing is done with IRQs disabled and can iterate the full rq.
When rqs are large this can cause large irq-latencies. Limit the nr of
iterations on each run.

This fixes a scheduling latency regression reported by the -rt folks.

3c90e6e99b sched: fix copy_namespace() <-> sched_fork() dependency in do_fork
Sukadev Bhattiprolu reported a kernel crash with control groups.
There are couple of problems discovered by Suka's test:

- The test requires the cgroup filesystem to be mounted with
  atleast the cpu and ns options (i.e both namespace and cpu 
  controllers are active in the same hierarchy). 

	# mkdir /dev/cpuctl
	# mount -t cgroup -ocpu,ns none cpuctl
	(or simply)
	# mount -t cgroup none cpuctl -> Will activate all controllers
					 in same hierarchy.

- The test invokes clone() with CLONE_NEWNS set. This causes a a new child
  to be created, also a new group (do_fork->copy_namespaces->ns_cgroup_clone->
  cgroup_clone) and the child is attached to the new group (cgroup_clone->
  attach_task->sched_move_task). At this point in time, the child's scheduler 
  related fields are uninitialized (including its on_rq field, which it has
  inherited from parent). As a result sched_move_task thinks its on
  runqueue, when it isn't.

  As a solution to this problem, I moved sched_fork() call, which
  initializes scheduler related fields on a new task, before
  copy_namespaces(). I am not sure though whether moving up will
  cause other side-effects. Do you see any issue?

- The second problem exposed by this test is that task_new_fair()
  assumes that parent and child will be part of the same group (which 
  needn't be as this test shows). As a result, cfs_rq->curr can be NULL
  for the child.

  The solution is to test for curr pointer being NULL in
  task_new_fair().

With the patch below, I could run ns_exec() fine w/o a crash.
