4926c0d4de [PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (6/9)
Kill all isa-related stuff from i2c_detect, it's not used anymore.

This is one major step in the directiom of merging i2c_probe and
i2c_detect. The last obstacle I can think of is the different way forced
addresses work between sensors and non-sensors i2c drivers. I'll deal
with that in a later patchset.

2d8672c5a6 [PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (5/9)
Call the ISA chip drivers detection function directly instead of relying
on i2c_detect. The net effect is that address lists won't be handled
anymore, but they were mostly useless in the ISA case anyway (pc87360,
smsc47m1, smsc47b397 had already dropped them).

We don't need to handle multiple devices, all we may need is a way to
force a given address instead of the original one (some drivers already
do: sis5595, via686a, w83627hf), and, for drivers supporting multiple
chips, a way to force one given kind. All this may be added later on
demand, but I actually don't think there will be much demand.

5042c7d752 [PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (4/9)
All ISA hardware monitoring drivers (including hybrid drivers) now have
a hard dependency on i2c-isa, so they must select I2C_ISA. As a result,
CONFIG_I2C_ISA doesn't need to be left visible to the user. The good
thing here is that users will stop complaining that some driver doesn't
work just because they forgot to compile or load i2c-isa.

At this point, all drivers are working again and the cleanup phase can
begin.

fde0950903 [PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (3/9)
Convert the 10 ISA hardware monitoring drivers (it87, lm78, pc87360,
sis5595, smsc47b397, smsc47m1, via686a, w83627hf, w83627ehf, w83781d) to
explicitely register with i2c-isa. For hybrid drivers (it87, lm78,
w83781d), we now have two separate instances of i2c_driver, one for the
I2C interface of the chip, and one for ISA interface. In the long run,
the one for ISA will be replaced with a different driver type.

At this point, all drivers are working again, except for missing
dependencies in Kconfig.

400c455eaa [PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (2/9)
Convert i2c-isa from a dumb i2c_adapter into a pseudo i2c-core for ISA
hardware monitoring drivers. The isa i2c_adapter is no more registered
with i2c-core, drivers have to explicitely connect to it using the new
i2c_isa_{add,del}_driver interface.

At this point, all ISA chip drivers are useless, because they still
register with i2c-core in the hope i2c-isa is registered there as well,
but it isn't anymore.

The fake bus will be named i2c-9191 in sysfs. This is the number it
already had internally in various places, so it's not exactly new,
except that now the number is seen in userspace as well. This shouldn't
be a problem until someone really has 9192 I2C busses in a given system
;)

The fake bus will no more show in "i2cdetect -l", as it won't be seen by
i2c-dev anymore (not being registered with i2c-core), which is a good
thing, as i2cdetect/i2cdump/i2cset cannot operate on this fake bus
anyway.

27fe048eb3 [PATCH] hwmon: kill client name lm78-j
Drop the separate client name for the LM78-J chip. This is really
only a later revision of the LM78, with almost no difference and
no difference the driver handles in any case.

This was the only client name that had a dash in it, and special care
had to be taken in libsensors because of it. As we plan to write a new
library soon, I'd like to get rid of this exception before we do.

As a nice side effect, it saves 876 bytes in lm78.ko.

9513e5e3f5 [PATCH] s390: spinlock corner case
On s390 the lock value used for spinlocks consists of the lower 32 bits of the
PSW that holds the lock.  If this address happens to be on a four gigabyte
boundary the lock is left unlocked.  This allows other cpus to grab the same
lock and enter a lock protected code path concurrently.  In theory this can
happen if the vmalloc area for the code of a module crosses a 4 GB boundary.

b6d09449d5 [PATCH] s390: pfault interrupt race
There is a race in pfault_interrupt.  That function gets called two times for
each pfault notification.  Once with a subcode of 0 to indicate that a real
page is not available and once with a subcode of 0x80 to indicate that the
page is present again.

Since the two external interrupts can be delivered on two different cpus the
order in which the two calls are made is unpredictable.  It is possible that
the subcode 0x80 interrupt is completed before the subcode 0x00 interrupt has
done the wake_up() call.

To avoid calling wake_up() on an already removed task structure proper task
structure reference counting is needed.  Increase the reference counter in the
subcode 0x00 interrupt before setting pfault_wait to zero and return the
reference after the wake_up call.

1) The system entry time has to be stored in the machine check handler,

3) the return address for the call to s390_handle_mcck in the i/o interrupt

4) the system call cleanup has to take the different save area of the
   machine check handler into account,

5) the machine check handler may not call UPDATE_VTIME before
   CREATE_STACK_FRAME, and

6) the io leave path needs a critical section cleanup to make sure that the
   TIF_MCCK_PENDING bit is really checked before switching back to user space.

09ace81c1d [PATCH] uml: add host AIO support to block driver
This adds AIO support to the ubd driver.

The driver breaks a struct request into IO requests to the host, based on the
hardware segments in the request and on any COW blocks covered by the request.

The ubd IO thread is gone, since there is now an equivalent thread in the AIO
module.

There is provision for multiple outstanding requests now.  Requests aren't
retired until all pieces of it have been completed.  The AIO requests have a
shared count, which is decremented as IO operations come in until it reaches
0.  This can be possibly moved to the request struct - haven't looked at this
yet.

This merges two sets of files which had no business being split apart in the
first place.

08964c565b [PATCH] uml: merge duplicated page table code
There is a lot of code which is duplicated between the 2 and 3 level
implementation, with the only difference that the 3-level implementation is a
bit more generalized (instead of accessing directly pte_t.pte, it uses the
appropriate access macros).

So this code is joined together.

As obvious, a "core code nice cleanup" is not a "stability-friendly patch" so
usual care applies.

c56004901f [PATCH] uml: TLB operation batching
This adds VM op batching to skas0.  Rather than having a context switch to and
from the userspace stub for each address space change, we write a number of
operations to the stub data page and invoke a different stub which loops over
them and executes them all in one go.

The operations are stored as [ system call number, arg1, arg2, ... ] tuples.

The set is terminated by a system call number of 0.  Single operations, i.e.
page faults, are handled in the old way, since that is slightly more
efficient.

For a kernel build, a minority (~1/4) of the operations are part of a set.
These sets averaged ~100 in length, so for this quarter, the context switching
overhead is greatly reduced.

02edeb586a [PATCH] uml: mark SMP on UML/x86_64 as broken
Noticed by Al Viro <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk> - SMP on x86_64 is
fundamentally broken due to UML's reuse of the host arch's percpu stuff.  This
is OK on x86, but the x86_64 pda stuff just won't work for UML.
