221dee285e Revert "[CPUFREQ] constify cpufreq_driver where possible."
This reverts commit aeeddc1435, which was
half-baked and broken.  It just resulted in compile errors, since
cpufreq_register_driver() still changes the 'driver_data' by setting
bits in the flags field.  So claiming it is 'const' _really_ doesn't
work.

843613b047 IPoIB: Correct debugging output when path record lookup fails
If path_rec_completion() is passed a non-NULL path record pointer
along with an unsuccessful status value, the tracing code incorrectly
prints the (invalid) DLID from the path record rather than the more
interesting status code.  The actual logic of the function correctly
uses the path record only if the status indicates a successful lookup.

25165120f2 [PATCH] x86: add -freg-struct-return to CFLAGS
Jeremy Fitzhardinge suggested the use of -freg-struct-return, which does
structure-returns (such as when using pte_t) in registers instead of on
the stack.

that is indeed so, and this option reduced the kernel size a bit:

    text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 4799506  543456 3760128 9103090  8ae6f2 vmlinux.before
 4798117  543456 3760128 9101701  8ae185 vmlinux.after

the resulting kernel booted fine on my testbox. Lets go for it.

aef8811abb [XFRM]: Fix oops in xfrm4_dst_destroy()
With 2.6.21-rc1, I get an oops when running 'ifdown eth0' and an IPsec
connection is active. If I shut down the connection before running 'ifdown
eth0', then there's no problem.  The critical operation of this script is to
kill dhcpd.

The problem is probably caused by commit with git identifier
4337226228 (Linus tree) "[IPSEC]: IPv4 over IPv6
IPsec tunnel".

This patch fixes that oops. I don't know the network code of the Linux
kernel in deep, so if that fix is wrong, please change it. But please
fix the oops. :)

fadcdb4516 Reassign printk levels in selinux kernel code
Below is a patch which demotes many printk lines to KERN_DEBUG from
KERN_INFO.  It should help stop the spamming of logs with messages in
which users are not interested nor is there any action that users should
take.  It also promotes some KERN_INFO to KERN_ERR such as when there
are improper attempts to register/unregister security modules.

A similar patch was discussed a while back on list:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=116656343500003&r=1&w=2
This patch addresses almost all of the issues raised.  I believe the
only advice not taken was in the demoting of messages related to
undefined permissions and classes.

1845a579e0 [SCTP]: Strike the transport before updating rto.
Once we reach a point where we exceed the max.path.retrans, strike the
transport before updating the rto.  This will force transport switch at
the right time, instead of 1 retransmit too late.

8c4a2d41a7 [SCTP]: Fix connection hang/slowdown with PR-SCTP
The problem that this patch corrects happens when all of the following
conditions are satisfisfied:
 1.  PR-SCTP is used and the timeout on the chunks is set below RTO.Max.
 2.  One of the paths on a multihomed associations is brought down.

In this scenario, data will expire within the rto of the initial
transmission and will never be retransmitted.  However this data still
fills the send buffer and is counted against the association as outstanding
data.  This causes any new data not to be sent and retransmission to not
happen.

The fix is to discount the abandoned data from the outstanding count and
peers rwnd estimation.  This allows new data to be sent and a retransmission
timer restarted.  Even though this new data will most likely expire within
the rto, the timer still counts as a strike against the transport and forces
the FORWARD-TSN chunk to be retransmitted as well.
