2b0b39517d jfs: fix diAllocExt error in resizing filesystem
Resizing the filesystem would result in an diAllocExt error in some
instances because changes in bmp->db_agsize would not get noticed if
goto extendBmap was called.

aebaec975f [WATCHDOG] max63xx driver depends on ioremap()
Correct fix for the "ioremap() causes build failure on S390" should have been
a dependancy on HAS_IOMEM. So we add this dependancy also (and leave the driver
in the ARM section for now).

b1183e064a [WATCHDOG] max63xx: be careful when disabling the watchdog
When shutting down the watchdog timer, special care must be taken
not to overwrite other bits in the register, as it may be shared
with other peripherals.

For example, on the Arcom Vulcan, the register is shared between
the watchdog and the PCI reset line...

0fb06571bb [WATCHDOG] fixed book E watchdog period register mask.
A previous fix changed the WDTP function to use the period directly,
rather than subtracting from 63.  However the mask generation was
not changed, so the mask was coming out as 0.  This patch fixes it.

While current linux-2.6 kernel doesnt emit this warning, bug is latent
and might cause unexpected failures.

ip_dev_loopback_xmit() runs in process context, preemption enabled, so
must call netif_rx_ni() instead of netif_rx(), to make sure that we
process pending software interrupt.

Same change for ip6_dev_loopback_xmit()

014f61504a Input: wacom - switch mode upon system resume
When Wacom devices wake up from a sleep, the switch mode command
(wacom_query_tablet_data) is needed before wacom_open is called.
wacom_query_tablet_data should not be executed inside wacom_open
since wacom_open is called more than once during probe.

wacom_retrieve_hid_descriptor is removed from wacom_resume due
to the fact that the required descriptors are stored properly
upon system resume.

8815cd030f ALSA: hda - Add position_fix quirk for Biostar mobo
The Biostar mobo seems to give a wrong DMA position, resulting in
stuttering or skipping sounds on 2.6.34.  Since the commit
7b3a177b0d, "ALSA: pcm_lib: fix "something
must be really wrong" condition", makes the position check more strictly,
the DMA position problem is revealed more clearly now.

The fix is to use only LPIB for obtaining the position, i.e. passing
position_fix=1.  This patch adds a static quirk to achieve it as default.

4e310fda91 vsprintf: Change struct printf_spec.precision from s8 to s16
Commit ef0658f3de changed precision
from int to s8.

There is existing kernel code that uses a larger precision.

An example from the audit code:
	vsnprintf(...,..., " msg='%.1024s'", (char *)data);
which overflows precision and truncates to nothing.

Extending precision size fixes the audit system issue.

Other changes:

Change the size of the struct printf_spec.type from u16 to u8 so
sizeof(struct printf_spec) stays as small as possible.
Reorder the struct members so sizeof(struct printf_spec) remains 64 bits
without alignment holes.
Document the struct members a bit more.

328a2c22ab hwmon: (sht15) Fix sht15_calc_temp interpolation function
I discovered two issues.
First the previous sht15_calc_temp() loop did not iterate through the
temppoints array since the (data->supply_uV > temppoints[i - 1].vdd)
test is always true in this direction.

Also the two-points linear interpolation function was returning biased
values due to a stray division by 1000 which shouldn't be there.

[JD: Also change the default value for d1 from 0 to something saner.]

091ebf07a2 lguest: stop using KVM hypercall mechanism
This is a partial revert of 4cd8b5e2a1 "lguest: use KVM hypercalls";
we revert to using (just as questionable but more reliable) int $15 for
hypercalls.  I didn't revert the register mapping, so we still use the
same calling convention as kvm.

KVM in more recent incarnations stopped injecting a fault when a guest
tried to use the VMCALL instruction from ring 1, so lguest under kvm
fails to make hypercalls.  It was nice to share code with our KVM
cousins, but this was overreach.

5094aeafbb lguest: workaround cmpxchg8b_emu by ignoring cli in the guest.
It's only used by cmpxchg8b_emu (see db677ffa5f for the gory
details), and fixing that to be paravirt aware would be more work than
simply ignoring it (and AFAICT only help lguest).  This makes lguest
work on machines which have cmpxchg8b, for kernels compiled for older
processors.

(We can't emulate it properly: the popf which expects to restore interrupts
does not trap).

0110d6f22f tun: orphan an skb on tx
The following situation was observed in the field:
tap1 sends packets, tap2 does not consume them, as a result
tap1 can not be closed. This happens because
tun/tap devices can hang on to skbs undefinitely.

As noted by Herbert, possible solutions include a timeout followed by a
copy/change of ownership of the skb, or always copying/changing
ownership if we're going into a hostile device.

This patch implements the second approach.

Note: one issue still remaining is that since skbs
keep reference to tun socket and tun socket has a
reference to tun device, we won't flush backlog,
instead simply waiting for all skbs to get transmitted.
At least this is not user-triggerable, and
this was not reported in practice, my assumption is
other devices besides tap complete an skb
within finite time after it has been queued.

A possible solution for the second issue
would not to have socket reference the device,
instead, implement dev->destructor for tun, and
wait for all skbs to complete there, but this
needs some thought, probably too risky for 2.6.34.

Better explain the condition parameter of
rcu_dereference_check() that describes the conditions under
which the dereference is permitted to take place (and
incorporate Yong Zhang's suggestion).  This condition is only
checked under lockdep proving.

b62730baea rcu: Add rcu_access_pointer and rcu_dereference_protected
This patch adds variants of rcu_dereference() that handle
situations where the RCU-protected data structure cannot change,
perhaps due to our holding the update-side lock, or where the
RCU-protected pointer is only to be fetched, not dereferenced.
These are needed due to some performance concerns with using
rcu_dereference() where it is not required, aside from the need
for lockdep/sparse checking.

The new rcu_access_pointer() primitive is for the case where the
pointer is be fetch and not dereferenced.  This primitive may be
used without protection, RCU or otherwise, due to the fact that
it uses ACCESS_ONCE().

The new rcu_dereference_protected() primitive is for the case
where updates are prevented, for example, due to holding the
update-side lock.  This primitive does neither ACCESS_ONCE() nor
smp_read_barrier_depends(), so can only be used when updates are
somehow prevented.

82c6f5a5b3 ARM: 6051/1: VFP: preserve the HW context when calling signal handlers
From: Imre Deak <imre.deak@nokia.com>

Signal handlers can use floating point, so prevent them to corrupt
the main thread's VFP context. So far there were two signal stack
frame formats defined based on the VFP implementation, but the user
struct used for ptrace covers all posibilities, so use it for the
signal stack too.

Introduce also a new user struct for VFP exception registers. In
this too fields not relevant to the current VFP architecture are
ignored.

Support to save / restore the exception registers was added by
Will Deacon.
