dcf3099745 ftrace: disable tracing on acpi idle calls
The acpi idle waits calls local_irq_save and then uses mwait to go into
idle. The tracer gets reenabled at local_irq_save but does not detect that
the idle allows for wake ups.

This patch adds code to disable the tracing when acpi puts the CPU to idle.

547b792cac net: convert BUG_TRAP to generic WARN_ON
Removes legacy reinvent-the-wheel type thing. The generic
machinery integrates much better to automated debugging aids
such as kerneloops.org (and others), and is unambiguous due to
better naming. Non-intuively BUG_TRAP() is actually equal to
WARN_ON() rather than BUG_ON() though some might actually be
promoted to BUG_ON() but I left that to future.

I could make at least one BUILD_BUG_ON conversion.

10d33e9c36 edac: e752x fix too loud on nonmemory errors
This module harvests more than just memory errors, it also harvests
various bus and dma errors that the Chipset detects.  Previously, it would
report all such errors, which would cause output to be TOO loud.

This patches therefore adds a parameter which is used to turn off
NON-MEMORY error reports by default.  Or the reporting can be enabled via
the parameter

Also did code style cleanup: less than 80 characters per line rule

124682c785 edac: core fix added newline to sysfs dimm labels
The channel DIMM label does not seem to be used much in the edac code.
However, where it is used (in the core code), it is assumed to not have a
newline embedded.  This leaves the sysfs file newline free which looks
funny when cat'ing it.  Here we just add the trailing newline to the sysfs
chX_dimm_label output...

[Doug Thompson note: the DIMM label is one of the primary uses of EDAC.
User space daemon scripts, edac-utils@sourceforge, populate the DIMM label
fields, via /sys/devices/system/edac attributes, with the silk screen
labels of the motherboard in use.  dmidecode access BIOS tables, but BIOS
tables are well known to be incorrect and useless in these respects.
edac-utils will strip off any newlines before its use of the output, when
displaying DIMM slot silk screen labels.
