701dfbc1cb [PATCH] mm: mremap correct rmap accounting
Nick Piggin points out that page accounting on MIPS multiple ZERO_PAGEs
is not maintained by its move_pte, and could lead to freeing a ZERO_PAGE.

Instead of complicating that move_pte, just forget the minor optimization
when mremapping, and change the one thing which needed it for correctness
- filemap_xip use ZERO_PAGE(0) throughout instead of according to address.

[ "There is no block device driver one could use for XIP on mips
   platforms" - Carsten Otte ]

8339f0008c [PATCH] i386: In assign_irq_vector look at all vectors before giving up
When the world was a simple and static place setting up irqs was easy.
It sufficed to allocate a linux irq number and a find a free cpu
vector we could receive that linux irq on.  In those days it was
a safe assumption that any allocated vector was actually in use
so after one global pass through all of the vectors we would have
none left.

These days things are much more dynamic with interrupt controllers
(in the form of MSI or MSI-X) appearing on plug in cards and linux
irqs appearing and disappearing.  As these irqs come and go vectors
are allocated and freed,  invalidating the ancient assumption that all
allocated vectors stayed in use forever.

So this patch modifies the vector allocator to walk through every
possible vector before giving up, and to check to see if a vector
is in use before assigning it.  With these changes we stop leaking
freed vectors and it becomes possible to allocate and free irq vectors
all day long.

This changed was modeled after the vector allocator on x86_64 where
this limitation has already been removed.  In essence we don't update
the static variables that hold the position of the last vector we
allocated until have successfully allocated another vector.  This
allows us to detect if we have completed one complete scan through
all of the possible vectors.

7a238fcba0 [PATCH] namespaces: fix exit race by splitting exit
Fix exit race by splitting the nsproxy putting into two pieces.  First
piece reduces the nsproxy refcount.  If we dropped the last reference, then
it puts the mnt_ns, and returns the nsproxy as a hint to the caller.  Else
it returns NULL.  The second piece of exiting task namespaces sets
tsk->nsproxy to NULL, and drops the references to other namespaces and
frees the nsproxy only if an nsproxy was passed in.

A little awkward and should probably be reworked, but hopefully it fixes
the NFS oops.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7696
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216338

The b44 chip occasionally needs to be reset when ISTAT_ERRORS are
encountered.  The reset sequence includes a PHY reset that will take many
seconds to complete and cause the link to go down and up.  By skipping the
PHY reset, it will greatly reduce the interruption when ISTAT_ERRORS are
encountered.

Change the full_reset parameter to reset_kind parameter in b44_init_hw().
This will allow PHY reset to be skipped when ISTAT_ERRORS are encountered.

START bit clear (i.e.  stopping the drive) appears to be incorrect.  It
sends an ATA STANDBY command with the time period set to 0, which the code
comment says means "now", but the ATA standard says this means disable the
standby timer, which effectively does nothing.  Change this to issue a
STANDBY IMMEDIATE command which will actually spin the drive down.  The SAT

76398f9667 HID: fix pb_fnmode and move it to generic HID
The apple powerbook people are used to switch the pb_fnmode
setting at runtime through writing to sysfs, altering the
module parameter value. This was broken for them in 2.6.20-rc1
when generic HID layer was introduced, as the pb_fnmode flag
was made per-hiddevice, instead of global variable.

This patch moves the pb_fnmode module parameter from usbhid module
to hid module, but apart from that retains backward compatibility
with respect to changing the mode through sysfs.

dc6e29da91 Fix balance_dirty_page() calculations with CONFIG_HIGHMEM
This makes balance_dirty_page() always base its calculations on the
amount of non-highmem memory in the machine, rather than try to base it
on total memory and then falling back on non-highmem memory if the
mapping it was writing wasn't highmem capable.

This not only fixes a situation where two different writers can have
wildly different notions about what is a "balanced" dirty state, but it
also means that people with highmem machines don't run into an OOM
situation when regular memory fills up with dirty pages.

We used to try to handle the latter case by scaling down the dirty_ratio
if the machine had a lot of highmem pages in page_writeback_init(), but
it wasn't aggressive enough for some situations, and since basing the
dirty ratio on highmem memory was broken in the first place, let's just
stop doing so.

(A variation of this theme fixed Justin Piszcz's OOM problem when
copying an 18GB file on a RAID setup).

7d2aae1e88 [PATCH] ALSA: Fix sysfs breakage
The recent change for a new sysfs tree with card* object breaks the
/sys/class/sound tree if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled.
The device in each entry doesn't point the correct device object:

  /sys/class/sound
  ...
  |-- pcmC0D0c
  |   |-- dev
  |   |-- device -> ../../../class/sound/card0
  |   |-- pcm_class
  |   |-- power
  |   |   `-- wakeup
  |   |-- subsystem -> ../../../class/sound
  |   `-- uevent

Also, this change breaks some drivers (like sound/arm/*) referring
card->dev directly to obtain the device object for memory handling.

This patch reverts the semantics of card->dev to the former version,
which points to a real device object.  The card* object is stored in a
new card->card_dev field, instead.  The device parent is chosen either
card->dev or card->card_dev according to CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED to
keep the tree compatibility.
Also, card* isn't created if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled.  The
reason of card* object is a root of all beloing devices, and it makes
little sense if each sound device points to the real device object
directly.

3453c8478a [CPUFREQ] Remove unneeded errata workaround from p4-clockmod.
This workaround unnecessarily cripples functionality to work
around an errata that doesn't seem possible to hit due to
us using the automatic clock throttling in the p4 mcheck code.

See http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/28/148 for complete reasoning
and lack of disconsent.
