4d5e392c33 [PATCH] atmel_serial: Fix roundoff error in atmel_console_get_options
The atmel_console_get_options() function initializes the baud,
parity and bits settings from the actual hardware setup, in
case it has been initialized by a e.g. boot loader.

The baud rate, however, is not necessarily exactly equal to one of
the standard baud rates (115200, etc.) This means that the baud rate
calculated by this function may be slightly higher or slightly lower
than one of the standard baud rates.

If the baud rate is slightly lower than the target, this causes
problems when uart_set_option() tries to match the detected baud rate
against the standard baud rate, as it will always select a baud rate
that is lower or equal to the target rate. For example if the
detected baud rate is slightly lower than 115200, usart_set_options()
will select 57600.

This patch fixes the problem by subtracting 1 from the value in BRGR
when calculating the baud rate. The detected baud rate will thus
always be higher than the nearest standard baud rate, and
uart_set_options() will end up doing the right thing.

Tested on ATSTK1000 and AT91RM9200-EK boards. Both are broken without
this patch.

c194588dba [PATCH] AVR32: Allow renumbering of serial devices
Allow the board to remap actual USART peripheral devices to serial
devices by calling at32_map_usart(hw_id, serial_line). This ensures
that even though ATSTK1002 uses USART1 as the first serial port, it
will still have a ttyS0 device.

This also adds a board-specific early setup hook and moves the
at32_setup_serial_console() call there from the platform code.

75d3521377 [PATCH] atmel_serial: Pass fixed register mappings through platform_data
In order to initialize the serial console early, the atmel_serial
driver had to do a hack where it compared the physical address of the
port with an address known to be permanently mapped, and used it as a
virtual address. This got around the limitation that ioremap() isn't
always available when the console is being initalized.

This patch removes that hack and replaces it with a new "regs" field
in struct atmel_uart_data that the board-specific code can initialize
to a fixed virtual mapping for platform devices where this is possible.
It also initializes the DBGU's regs field with the address the driver
used to check against.

On AVR32, the "regs" field is initialized from the physical base
address when this it can be accessed through a permanently 1:1 mapped
segment, i.e. the P4 segment.

If regs is NULL, the console initialization is delayed until the "real"
driver is up and running and ioremap() can be used.

20e9751bd9 [PATCH] rcu: simplify/improve batch tuning
Kill a hard-to-calculate 'rsinterval' boot parameter and per-cpu
rcu_data.last_rs_qlen.  Instead, it adds adds a flag rcu_ctrlblk.signaled,
which records the fact that one of CPUs has sent a resched IPI since the
last rcu_start_batch().

Roughly speaking, we need two rcu_start_batch()s in order to move callbacks
from ->nxtlist to ->donelist.  This means that when ->qlen exceeds qhimark
and continues to grow, we should send a resched IPI, and then do it again
after we gone through a quiescent state.

On the other hand, if it was already sent, we don't need to do it again
when another CPU detects overflow of the queue.

11a147013e [PATCH] rcu: add rcu_bh_sync torture type to rcutorture
Use the newly-generic synchronous deferred free function to implement torture
testing for rcu_bh using synchronize_rcu_bh rather than the asynchronous
call_rcu_bh.

Make srcu_torture_deferred_free use cur_ops->sync() so it will work for any
implementation.  Move and rename it in preparation for use in the ops of other
implementations.

b772e1dd4b [PATCH] RCU: add fake writers to rcutorture
rcutorture currently has one writer and an arbitrary number of readers.  To
better exercise some of the code paths in RCU implementations, add fake
writer threads which call the synchronize function for the RCU variant in a
loop, with a delay between calls to arrange for different numbers of
writers running in parallel.
