4874cc1b51 powerpc: mpc5200: fix build error on mpc52xx_psc_spi device driver
Commit id 94f389485e (Separate MPC52xx PSC FIOF
regsiters from the rest of PSC) split the PSC fifo registers away from the
core PSC regs.  Doing so broke the mpc52xx_psc_spi driver.

This patch teaches the mpc52xx_psc_spi driver about the new PSC fifo
register definitions.

05680d86d2 pktcdvd: reduce stack consumption
On my system, pkt_open() consumes 584 bytes because the compiler decides to
inline lots of functions that would not normally be part of long call chains.
The following patch fixes that problem on my system.

735c4fb916 add noinline_for_stack
People are adding `noinline' in various places to prevent excess stack
consumption due to gcc inlining.  But once this is done, it is quite unobvious
why the `noinline' is present in the code.  We can comment each and every
site, or we can use noinline_for_stack.

e8ed857c64 tridentfb: resource management fixes in probe function
Correct error paths in probe function.

The probe function enables mmio mode so it important to disable the mmio
mode before exiting the probe function.  Otherwise, the console is left in
unusable state (garbled fonts at least, lock up at worst).

804defea1c Kprobes: move kprobe examples to samples/
Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/.
Patch originally by Randy Dunlap.

o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3
o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently,
  the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc
o Cleaned up unneeded #includes
o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break
  on archs that don't have kretprobes
o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES
o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git
o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to
  determine routine execution times:
	Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=<func_name>' to determine
	execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.

9edddaa200 Kprobes: indicate kretprobe support in Kconfig
Add CONFIG_HAVE_KRETPROBES to the arch/<arch>/Kconfig file for relevant
architectures with kprobes support.  This facilitates easy handling of
in-kernel modules (like samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c) that depend on
kretprobes being present in the kernel.

Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for helping make the patch more lean.

Per Mathieu's suggestion, added CONFIG_KRETPROBES and fixed up dependencies.

8182ec49a7 VT notifier fix for VT switch
VT notifier callbacks need to be aware of console switches.  This is already
partially done from console_callback(), but at that time fg_console, cursor
positions, etc.  are not yet updated and hence screen readers fetch the old
values.

This adds an update notify after all of the values are updated in
redraw_screen(vc, 1).

be852795e1 alloc_percpu() fails to allocate percpu data
Some oprofile results obtained while using tbench on a 2x2 cpu machine were
very surprising.

For example, loopback_xmit() function was using high number of cpu cycles
to perform the statistic updates, supposed to be real cheap since they use
percpu data

        pcpu_lstats = netdev_priv(dev);
        lb_stats = per_cpu_ptr(pcpu_lstats, smp_processor_id());
        lb_stats->packets++;  /* HERE : serious contention */
        lb_stats->bytes += skb->len;

struct pcpu_lstats is a small structure containing two longs.  It appears
that on my 32bits platform, alloc_percpu(8) allocates a single cache line,
instead of giving to each cpu a separate cache line.

Using the following patch gave me impressive boost in various benchmarks
( 6 % in tbench)
(all percpu_counters hit this bug too)

Long term fix (ie >= 2.6.26) would be to let each CPU allocate their own
block of memory, so that we dont need to roudup sizes to L1_CACHE_BYTES, or
merging the SGI stuff of course...

Note : SLUB vs SLAB is important here to *show* the improvement, since they
dont have the same minimum allocation sizes (8 bytes vs 32 bytes).  This
could very well explain regressions some guys reported when they switched
to SLUB.

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.)

a10568733c CRIS v10: Include mm.h instead of vmstat.h in kernel/time.c
Commit 2f569afd9c
(CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables) introduced use of
inc_zone_page_state and dec_zone_page_state in include/linux/mm.h.

Those are defined in include/linux/vmstat.h, but after it includes
mm.h, making it impossible to include vmstat.h since inc_zone_page_state
and dec_zone_page_state then would be undefined.

arch/cris/arch-v10/kernel/time.c does just this, which makes the
CRIS v10 build break with the following error:

...

By changing kernel/time.c to include linux/mm.h, the build succeeds.

      possible types: cleanup debugging missing line
      values: track values through preprocessor conditional paths
      typeof is actually a type
      possible types: detect definitions which cross lines
      values: include line numbers on value debug information
      values: ensure we find correctly record pending brackets
      values: simplify the brace history stack
      CVS keyword checks should only apply to added lines
      loosen spacing for comments
      allow braces for single statement blocks with multiline conditionals

62fb185130 sched: revert load_balance_monitor() changes
The following commits cause a number of regressions:

  commit 58e2d4ca58

  Date:   Fri Jan 25 21:08:00 2008 +0100
  sched: group scheduling, change how cpu load is calculated

  commit 6b2d770026
  Author: Srivatsa Vaddagiri <vatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
  Date:   Fri Jan 25 21:08:00 2008 +0100
  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.

87d034f313 x86/xen: fix DomU boot problem
Construct Xen guest e820 map with a hole between 640K-1M.

It's pure luck that Xen kernels have gotten away with it in the past.

The patch below seems like the right thing to do. It certainly boots in
a domU without the DMI problem (without any of the other related patches
such as Alexander's).

7c9e92b6cd x86: not set node to cpu_to_node if the node is not online
resolve boot problem reported by Mel Gorman:

   http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/13/404

init_cpu_to_node will use cpu->apic (from MADT or mptable) and
apic->node(from SRAT or AMD config space with k8_bus_64.c) to have
cpu->node mapping, and later identify_cpu will overwrite them
again...(with nearby_node...)

this patch checks if the node is online, otherwise it will not
update cpu_node map. so keep cpu_node map to online node before
identify_cpu..., to prevent possible error.

18a8622101 x86, i387: fix ptrace leakage using init_fpu()
This bug got introduced by the recent i387 merge:

  commit 4421011120
  Author: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>
  Date:   Wed Jan 30 13:31:50 2008 +0100

      x86: x86 i387 user_regset

Current usage of unlazy_fpu() in ptrace specific routines is wrong.
unlazy_fpu() will not init fpu if the task never used math. So the
ptrace calls can expose the parent tasks FPU data in some cases.

Replace it with the init_fpu() which will init the math state, if the
task never used math before.

13b1c3d4b4 freezer vs stopped or traced
This changes the "freezer" code used by suspend/hibernate in its treatment
of tasks in TASK_STOPPED (job control stop) and TASK_TRACED (ptrace) states.

As I understand it, the intent of the "freezer" is to hold all tasks
from doing anything significant.  For this purpose, TASK_STOPPED and
TASK_TRACED are "frozen enough".  It's possible the tasks might resume
from ptrace calls (if the tracer were unfrozen) or from signals
(including ones that could come via timer interrupts, etc).  But this
doesn't matter as long as they quickly block again while "freezing" is
in effect.  Some minor adjustments to the signal.c code make sure that
try_to_freeze() very shortly follows all wakeups from both kinds of
stop.  This lets the freezer code safely leave stopped tasks unmolested.

Changing this fixes the longstanding bug of seeing after resuming from
suspend/hibernate your shell report "[1] Stopped" and the like for all
your jobs stopped by ^Z et al, as if you had freshly fg'd and ^Z'd them.
It also removes from the freezer the arcane special case treatment for
ptrace'd tasks, which relied on intimate knowledge of ptrace internals.

33f9c505ed KVM: VMX: Avoid rearranging switched guest msrs while they are loaded
KVM tries to run as much as possible with the guest msrs loaded instead of
host msrs, since switching msrs is very expensive.  It also tries to minimize
the number of msrs switched according to the guest mode; for example,
MSR_LSTAR is needed only by long mode guests.  This optimization is done by
setup_msrs().

However, we must not change which msrs are switched while we are running with
guest msr state:

 - switch to guest msr state
 - call setup_msrs(), removing some msrs from the list
 - switch to host msr state, leaving a few guest msrs loaded

An easy way to trigger this is to kexec an x86_64 linux guest.  Early during
setup, the guest will switch EFER to not include SCE.  KVM will stop saving
MSR_LSTAR, and on the next msr switch it will leave the guest LSTAR loaded.
The next host syscall will end up in a random location in the kernel.

Fix by reloading the host msrs before changing the msr list.
