343c00422d acer-wmi: Rename mail LED correctly & remove hardcoded colour
The mail LED name for acer-wmi currently hardcodes in the colour as green.
This is wrong, since many of the newer laptops now come with an orange
LED, and we have no way of telling what colour is used on a given system.

Also, rename the mail LED to be inline with the current recommendations of
the LED class documentation.

1ef36fa64e lguest: Do not append space to guests kernel command line
The lguest launcher appends a space to the kernel command line (if kernel
arguments are specified on its command line). This space is unneeded. More
importantly, this appended space will make Red Hat's nash script interpreter
(used in a Fedora style initramfs) add an empty argument to init's command
line. This empty argument will make kernel arguments like "init=/bin/bash"
fail (because the shell will try to execute a script with an empty name).
This could be considered a bug in nash, but is easily fixed in the lguest
launcher too.

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.

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.)

90a1ba0c5e PCI: Add DECLARE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE macro
The definitions of struct pci_device_id arrays should generally follow
the same pattern across the entire kernel.  This macro defines this
array as const and puts it into the __devinitconst section.

There are currently many definitions scattered about the kernel that
omit the __devinitdata modifier despite the documentation stating that
it should always be there.  These definitions really also should have
been const, which wasn't possible before but has become so with the
addition of the __devinitconst attribute.

Furthermore, there are definitions that use "const" and __devinitdata,
which is explicitly wrong but the compiler doesn't catch section
mismatches if there's only one such one case in the module (which is
often the case).

Adding the __devinitconst modifier where there was nothing before buys
us memory.  Adding the const modifier gives the compiler a chance to do
its thing.  Changing __devinitdata to __devinitconst where it was wrong
actually fixes some compiler errors in older (mid-release) kernels that
were patched over by "removing" the section attribute altogether (which
wastes memory).

This macro makes it pretty difficult to get this definition wrong in
the future...

(sorry for being offtpoic, but while experts are here...)

A "typical" implementation of atomic_add_unless() can return 0 immediately
after the first atomic_read() (before doing cmpxchg). In that case it doesn't
provide any barrier semantics. See include/asm-ia64/atomic.h as an example.

We should either change the implementation, or fix the docs.

3a2d5b7001 PM: Introduce PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE callback state
During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the
help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices'
->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4
system sleep state.

But at least for some devices the operations performed by the
->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations
during regular suspend.

For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and
pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase
of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as
appropriate.  Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a
special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way.

These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related
to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488).

3326732570 libata: implement libata.force module parameter
This patch implements libata.force module parameter which can
selectively override ATA port, link and device configurations
including cable type, SATA PHY SPD limit, transfer mode and NCQ.

For example, you can say "use 1.5Gbps for all fan-out ports attached
to the second port but allow 3.0Gbps for the PMP device itself, oh,
the device attached to the third fan-out port chokes on NCQ and
shouldn't go over UDMA4" by the following.

 libata.force=2:1.5g,2.15:3.0g,2.03:noncq,udma4

6c231bd5eb ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add tablet-mode reporting
A quick study of the 0x5009/0x500A HKEY event on the X61t DSDT revealed the
existence of the EC HTAB register (EC 0x0f, bit 7), and a compare with the
X41t DSDT shows that HKEY.MHKG can be used to verify if the ThinkPad is
tablet-capable (MHKG present), and in tablet mode (bit 3 of MHKG return is
set).

Add an attribute to report this information, "hotkey_tablet_mode".  This
attribute has poll()/select() support, and can be used along with EV_SW
SW_TABLET_MODE to hook userspace to tablet events.

d6ff365577 Documentation - Create laptops sub-directory
There are currently various laptop drivers floating about with no central
place for their documentation, which is currently scattered around the top
level Documentation/ directory.

So, as a first step, lets create a Documentation sub-directory, and update
the relevant index files. The work of then moving the existing laptop
driver related documentation will then be handled later.

d20894a237 Remove a.out interpreter support in ELF loader
Following the deprecation schedule the a.out ELF interpreter support
is removed now with this patch. a.out ELF interpreters were an transition
feature for moving a.out systems to ELF, but they're unlikely to be still
needed. Pure a.out systems will still work of course. This allows to
simplify the hairy ELF loader.

f84e3f521e mount options: add documentation
This series addresses the problem of showing mount options in
/proc/mounts.

Several filesystems which use mount options, have not implemented a
.show_options superblock operation.  Several others have implemented
this callback, but have not kept it fully up to date with the parsed
options.

Q: Why do we need correct option showing in /proc/mounts?
A: We want /proc/mounts to fully replace /etc/mtab.  The reasons for
   this are:
    - unprivileged mounters won't be able to update /etc/mtab
    - /etc/mtab doesn't work with private mount namespaces
    - /etc/mtab can become out-of-sync with reality

Q: Can't this be done, so that filesystems need not bother with
   implementing a .show_mounts callback, and keeping it up to date?
A: Only in some cases.  Certain filesystems allow modification of a
   subset of options in their remount_fs method.  It is not possible
   to take this into account without knowing exactly how the
   filesystem handles options.

For the simple case (no remount or remount resets all options) the
patchset introduces two helpers:

  generic_show_options()
  save_mount_options()

These can also be used to emulate the old /etc/mtab behavior, until
proper support is added.  Even if this is not 100% correct, it's still
better than showing no options at all.

The following patches fix up most in-tree filesystems, some have been
compile tested only, some have been reviewed and acked by the
maintainer.

262bf54144 aoe: user can ask driver to forget previously detected devices
When an AoE device is detected, the kernel is informed, and a new block device
is created.  If the device is unused, the block device corresponding to remote
device that is no longer available may be removed from the system by telling
the aoe driver to "flush" its list of devices.

Without this patch, software like GPFS and LVM may attempt to read from AoE
devices that were discovered earlier but are no longer present, blocking until
the I/O attempt times out.

8ff12cfc00 SLUB: Support for performance statistics
The statistics provided here allow the monitoring of allocator behavior but
at the cost of some (minimal) loss of performance. Counters are placed in
SLUB's per cpu data structure. The per cpu structure may be extended by the
statistics to grow larger than one cacheline which will increase the cache
footprint of SLUB.

There is a compile option to enable/disable the inclusion of the runtime
statistics and its off by default.

The slabinfo tool is enhanced to support these statistics via two options:

-D 	Switches the line of information displayed for a slab from size
	mode to activity mode.

-A	Sorts the slabs displayed by activity. This allows the display of
	the slabs most important to the performance of a certain load.

-r	Report option will report detailed statistics on

Example (tbench load):

slabinfo -AD		->Shows the most active slabs

So the skbuff_fclone_cache is of highest importance for the tbench load.
Pretty high load on the 192 sized slab. Look for the aliases

slabinfo -a | grep 000192
:0000192     <- xfs_btree_cur filp kmalloc-192 uid_cache tw_sock_TCP
	request_sock_TCPv6 tw_sock_TCPv6 skbuff_head_cache xfs_ili

Likely skbuff_head_cache.


Looking into the statistics of the skbuff_fclone_cache is possible through

slabinfo skbuff_fclone_cache	->-r option implied if cache name is mentioned

Descriptions of the output:

Total:		The total number of allocation and frees that occurred for a
		slab

Fastpath:	The number of allocations/frees that used the fastpath.

Slowpath:	Other allocations

Page Alloc:	Number of calls to the page allocator as a result of slowpath
		processing

Add Partial:	Number of slabs added to the partial list through free or
		alloc (occurs during cpuslab flushes)

Remove Partial:	Number of slabs removed from the partial list as a result of
		allocations retrieving a partial slab or by a free freeing
		the last object of a slab.

RemoteObj/Froz:	How many times were remotely freed object encountered when a
		slab was about to be deactivated. Frozen: How many times was
		free able to skip list processing because the slab was in use
		as the cpuslab of another processor.

Flushes:	Number of times the cpuslab was flushed on request
		(kmem_cache_shrink, may result from races in __slab_alloc)

Refill:		Number of times we were able to refill the cpuslab from
		remotely freed objects for the same slab.

Deactivate:	Statistics how slabs were deactivated. Shows how they were
		put onto the partial list.

In general fastpath is very good. Slowpath without partial list processing is
also desirable. Any touching of partial list uses node specific locks which
may potentially cause list lock contention.

w83627hf driver for several years now. Support by the w83781d has
been advertised as deprecated 6 months ago, it's about time to see
it go.
