d9664741e0 net/wireless/Kconfig: clarify the description for CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS
Current setup with hal and NetworkManager will fail to work
without newest hal version with this config option disabled.

Although this will solve itself by time, at the moment it is
dishonest to say that we don't know any software that uses it,
if there are many many people relying on old hal versions.

011fec7486 Un-break printk strings in x86 PCI probing code
Breaking lines due to some imaginary problem with a long line length is
often stupid and wrong, but never more so when it splits a string that
is printed out into multiple lines.  This really ended up making it much
harder to find where some error strings were printed out, because a
simple 'grep' didn't work.

I'm sure there is tons more of this particular idiocy hiding in other
places, but this particular case hit me once more last week. So fix it.

b67c5f87c1 [MTD] mtdchar.c: Fix regression in MEMGETREGIONINFO ioctl()
The MEMGETREGIONINFO ioctl() in mtdchar.c was clobbering user memory by
overwriting more than intended, due the size of struct mtd_erase_region_info
changing in commit 0ecbc81adf ('Support

Fix avoids this by copying struct members one by one with put_user(), as there
is no longer a convenient struct to use the size of as the length argument to
copy_to_user().

David Wagner added (among other things) that copy_to_user could be
probably used here.

Ingo Oeser suggested to use simple_read_from_buffer() here.

The conclusion is that proc_do_xprt doesn't check for userside buffer
size indeed so fix this by using Ingo's suggestion.

We fix it by moving the actual freeing to outside the lock (the lock
now only protects the list).

The pool lock is also promoted to irq-safe (suggested by Dan). It's
necessary because free_pool is now called outside the irq disabled
region. So we need to protect against an interrupt handler which calls
debug_object_init().

b2d2c4cead Fix problem with waiting while holding rcu read lock in md/bitmap.c
A recent patch to protect the rdev list with rcu locking leaves us
with a problem because we can sleep on memalloc while holding the
rcu lock.

The rcu lock is only needed while walking the linked list as
uninteresting devices (failed or spares) can be removed at any time.

So only take the rcu lock while actually walking the linked list.
Take a refcount on the rdev during the time when we drop the lock
and do the memalloc to start IO.
When we return to the locked code, all the interesting devices
on the list will not have moved, so we can simply use
list_for_each_continue_rcu to pick up where we left off.

271f5a9b8f Remove invalidate_partition call from do_md_stop.
When stopping an md array, or just switching to read-only, we
currently call invalidate_partition while holding the mddev lock.
The main reason for this is probably to ensure all dirty buffers
are flushed (invalidate_partition calls fsync_bdev).

However if any dirty buffers are found, it will almost certainly cause
a deadlock as starting writeout will require an update to the
superblock, and performing that updates requires taking the mddev
lock - which is already held.

This deadlock can be demonstrated by running "reboot -f -n" with
a root filesystem on md/raid, and some dirty buffers in memory.

All other calls to stop an array should already happen after a flush.
The normal sequence is to stop using the array (e.g. umount) which
will cause __blkdev_put to call sync_blockdev.  Then open the
array and issue the STOP_ARRAY ioctl while the buffers are all still
clean.

So this invalidate_partition is normally a no-op, except for one case
where it will cause a deadlock.

So remove it.

This patch possibly addresses the regression recored in
   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11460
and
   http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11452

though it isn't yet clear how it ever worked.

316d9679f3 Don't trigger softlockup detector on network fs blocked tasks
Pulling the ethernet cable on a 2.6.27-rc system with NFS mounts
currently leads to an ongoing flood of soft lockup detector backtraces
for all tasks blocked on the NFS mounts when the hickup takes
longer than 120s.

I don't think NFS problems should be all that noisy.

Luckily there's a reasonably easy way to distingush this case.

Don't report task softlockup warnings for tasks in TASK_KILLABLE
state, which is used by the network file systems.

I believe this patch is a 2.6.27 candidate.

b460947211 Revert "x86: fix HPET regression in 2.6.26 versus 2.6.25, check hpet against BAR, v3"
This reverts commit a2bd7274b4.

It wasn't really right to begin with (there's a better fix for the
problem with e820 reservations clashing with PCI BAR's pending), but it
also actually causes more regressions, so it should be reverted even
before the better fix is finalized.

Rafael reports that this commit broke AHCI detection, and thus causes
the kernel to not boot on his quad core test box.
