The file exit.c contains one useless extern declaration of sem_exit().
Moreover, it refers to nothing.
This trivial patch removes it.

Function do_timer_interrupt_hook() don't take argument regs,
and structure hrtimer_sleeper don't have member cb_pending.
So delete comments refering to these symbols.

My first guess for "fujitsu" was it might be related to the
fujitsu-laptop.c driver...
Move the frv directory one level up since frv is the name of the

After seeing the filename I'd have expected something about the
implementation of SMP in the Linux kernel - not some notes on kernel
configuration and building trivialities noone would search at this
place.

Having the macro to prevent multiple inclusion of
include/linux/dma-mapping.h contain the prefix "_ASM" is just begging

Frederik Himpe reported an unkillable and un-straceable pan process.
Zero length iovecs can go into an infinite loop in writev, because the
iovec iterator does not always advance over them.
The sequence required to trigger this is not trivial. I think it
requires that a zero-length iovec be followed by a non-zero-length iovec
which causes a pagefault in the atomic usercopy. This causes the writev
code to drop back into single-segment copy mode, which then tries to
copy the 0 bytes of the zero-length iovec; a zero length copy looks like
a failure though, so it loops.
Put a test into iov_iter_advance to catch zero-length iovecs. We could
just put the test in the fallback path, but I feel it is more robust to
skip over zero-length iovecs throughout the code (iovec iterator may be
used in filesystems too, so it should be robust).

Since this is used only in idetape_blkdev_ioctl(), remove the typedef and make
the struct function-local.

All those 2-byte values denoting the different capabilities are being written to
the local copy of the caps buffer without being converted to big endian for
simplicity of usage and shorter code later. Also, we add some comments stating
which are the fields of the caps page in question in order to alleviate the
cryptic pointer casting exercises as in e.g. idetape_get_mode_sense_results().
