73b7d74251 iwlwifi: fix Tx cmd memory allocation failure handling
This patch "iwlwifi: do not use GFP_DMA in iwl_tx_queue_init" removes
GFP_DMA from allocation tx command buffers. GFP_DMA allows allocation
only for memory under 16M which causes allocation problems
suspend/resume flows.

Using kmalloc is temporal solution and some consistent/coherent
allocation schema will be more correct. Since iwlwifi hardware
supports 64bit address this solution should work on x86 (32 and
64bit) for now.

This patch fixes memory freeing problem in the previous patch.

b94d8eea44 iwlwifi: W/A for the TSF correction in IBSS
This patch is a W/A for the TSF sync issue in IBSS merging. HW is not
capable to sync TSF (it's constantly little behind). This creates
constant IBSS merging upon reception of each beacon, adding and removing
station which in turn creates above 50% packet loss and thus dramatically
degrade the throughput. The W/A simply stops the driver from declaring it
has a reliable TSF value and thus eliminates IBSS merging.

7563dc6458 powerpc: Work around gcc's -fno-omit-frame-pointer bug
This bug is causing random crashes
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11414).

-fno-omit-frame-pointer is only needed on powerpc when -pg is also
supplied, and there is a gcc bug that causes incorrect code generation
on 32-bit powerpc when -fno-omit-frame-pointer is used---it uses stack
locations below the stack pointer, which is not allowed by the ABI
because those locations can and sometimes do get corrupted by an
interrupt.

This ensures that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is only selected by ftrace.
When CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled we also pass -mno-sched-epilog to work
around the gcc codegen bug.

9e88ba4e45 powerpc: Only make kernel text pages of linear mapping executable
Commit bc033b63bb ("powerpc/mm: Fix
attribute confusion with htab_bolt_mapping()") moved the check for
whether we should make pages of the linear mapping executable from
htab_bolt_mapping into its callers, including htab_initialize.
A side-effect of this is that the decision is now made once for
each contiguous section in the LMB array rather than for each page
individually.  This can often mean that the whole of the linear
mapping ends up being executable.

This reverts to the previous behaviour, where individual pages are
checked for being part of the kernel text or not, by moving the check
back down into htab_bolt_mapping.

fbb16e2438 [x86] Fix TSC calibration issues
Larry Finger reported at http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/1/90:
An ancient laptop of mine started throwing errors from b43legacy when
I started using 2.6.27 on it. This has been bisected to commit bfc0f59
"x86: merge tsc calibration".

The unification of the TSC code adopted mostly the 64bit code, which
prefers PMTIMER/HPET over the PIT calibration.

Larrys system has an AMD K6 CPU. Such systems are known to have
PMTIMER incarnations which run at double speed. This results in a
miscalibration of the TSC by factor 0.5. So the resulting calibrated
CPU/TSC speed is half of the real CPU speed, which means that the TSC
based delay loop will run half the time it should run. That might
explain why the b43legacy driver went berserk.

On the other hand we know about systems, where the PIT based
calibration results in random crap due to heavy SMI/SMM
disturbance. On those systems the PMTIMER/HPET based calibration logic
with SMI detection shows better results.

According to Alok also virtualized systems suffer from the PIT
calibration method.

The solution is to use a more wreckage aware aproach than the current
either/or decision.

1) reimplement the retry loop which was dropped from the 32bit code
during the merge. It repeats the calibration and selects the lowest
frequency value as this is probably the closest estimate to the real
frequency

2) Monitor the delta of the TSC values in the delay loop which waits
for the PIT counter to reach zero. If the maximum value is
significantly different from the minimum, then we have a pretty safe
indicator that the loop was disturbed by an SMI.

3) keep the pmtimer/hpet reference as a backup solution for systems
where the SMI disturbance is a permanent point of failure for PIT
based calibration

4) do the loop iteration for both methods, record the lowest value and
decide after all iterations finished.

5) Set a clear preference to PIT based calibration when the result
makes sense.

The implementation does the reference calibration based on
HPET/PMTIMER around the delay, which is necessary for the PIT anyway,
but keeps separate TSC values to ensure the "independency" of the
resulting calibration values.

Tested on various 32bit/64bit machines including Geode 266Mhz, AMD K6
(affected machine with a double speed pmtimer which I grabbed out of
the dump), Pentium class machines and AMD/Intel 64 bit boxen.

37b08e34a9 ipsec: Fix deadlock in xfrm_state management.
Ever since commit 4c563f7669
("[XFRM]: Speed up xfrm_policy and xfrm_state walking") it is
illegal to call __xfrm_state_destroy (and thus xfrm_state_put())
with xfrm_state_lock held.  If we do, we'll deadlock since we
have the lock already and __xfrm_state_destroy() tries to take
it again.

Fix this by pushing the xfrm_state_put() calls after the lock
is dropped.

8b76f46a2d drivers/char/random.c: fix a race which can lead to a bogus BUG()
Fix a bug reported by and diagnosed by Aaron Straus.

This is a regression intruduced into 2.6.26 by

    commit adc782dae6
    Author: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com>
    Date:   Tue Apr 29 01:03:07 2008 -0700

        random: simplify and rename credit_entropy_store

credit_entropy_bits() does:

	spin_lock_irqsave(&r->lock, flags);
	...
	if (r->entropy_count > r->poolinfo->POOLBITS)
		r->entropy_count = r->poolinfo->POOLBITS;

so there is a time window in which this BUG_ON():

static size_t account(struct entropy_store *r, size_t nbytes, int min,
		      int reserved)
{
	unsigned long flags;

	BUG_ON(r->entropy_count > r->poolinfo->POOLBITS);

	/* Hold lock while accounting */
	spin_lock_irqsave(&r->lock, flags);

can trigger.

We could fix this by moving the assertion inside the lock, but it seems
safer and saner to revert to the old behaviour wherein
entropy_store.entropy_count at no time exceeds
entropy_store.poolinfo->POOLBITS.

9d35935747 pm_qos_requirement might sleep
Make PM_QOS and CPU_IDLE play nicer when run with the RT-Preempt kernel.

The purpose of the patch is to remove the spin_lock around the read in the
function pm_qos_requirement - since spinlocks can sleep in -rt and this
function is called from idle.

CPU_IDLE polls the target_value's of some of the pm_qos parameters from
the idle loop causing sleeping locking warnings.  Changing the
target_value to an atomic avoids this issue.

Remove the spinlock in pm_qos_requirement by making target_value an atomic
type.

74c4633da7 rtc-cmos: wake again from S5
Update rtc-cmos shutdown handling to leave RTC alarms active, resolving
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11411 on several boards.  There
are still some systems where the ACPI event handling doesn't cooperate.
(Possibly related to bugid 11312, reporting the spontaneous disabling of
RTC events.)

Bug 11411 reported that changes to work around some ACPI event issues
broke wake-from-S5 handling, as used for DVR applications.  (They like to
power off, then wake later to record programs.)
