f18190bd34 fix paniced->panicked typos
In a testament to the utter simplicity and logic of the English
language ;-), I found a single correct use - in kernel/panic.c - and
10-15 incorrect ones.

7c12d81134 [PATCH] Make copy_from_user_inatomic NOT zero the tail on i386
As described in a previous patch and documented in mm/filemap.h,
copy_from_user_inatomic* shouldn't zero out the tail of the buffer after an
incomplete copy.

This patch implements that change for i386.

For the _nocache version, a new __copy_user_intel_nocache is defined similar
to copy_user_zeroio_intel_nocache, and this is ultimately used for the copy.

For the regular version, __copy_from_user_ll_nozero is defined which uses
__copy_user and __copy_user_intel - the later needs casts to reposition the
__user annotations.

If copy_from_user_atomic is given a constant length of 1, 2, or 4, then we do
still zero the destintion on failure.  This didn't seem worth the effort of
fixing as the places where it is used really don't care.

e75eac33b5 [PATCH] Clean up and refactor i386 sub-architecture setup
Clean up and refactor i386 sub-architecture setup.

This change moves all the code from the
asm-i386/mach-*/setup_arch_pre/post.h headers, into
arch/i386/mach-*/setup.c.  mach-*/setup_arch_pre.h is renamed to
setup_arch.h, and contains only things which should be in header files.  It
is purely code-motion; there should be no functional changes at all.

Several functions in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c needed to be made non-static
so that they're visible to the code in mach-*/setup.c.  asm-i386/setup.h is
used to hold the prototypes for these functions.

68402ddc67 [PATCH] mm: remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn_range and drop VM_SHM
Remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn range from device drivers and get rid of
VM_SHM.

remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO.  There is no need to set VM_SHM since
it does nothing.  VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not
place pages on the LRU.  The pages are therefore never subject to swap
anyways.  Remove all the vm_flags settings before calling remap_pfn_range.

After removing all the vm_flag settings no use of VM_SHM is left.  Drop it.

1b61b910e9 [PATCH] x86: kernel irq balance doesn't work
On i386, kernel irq balance doesn't work.

1) In function do_irq_balance, after kernel finds the min_loaded cpu but
   before calling set_pending_irq to really pin the selected_irq to the
   target cpu, kernel does a cpus_and with irq_affinity[selected_irq].
   Later on, when the irq is acked, kernel would calls
   move_native_irq=>desc->handler->set_affinity to change the irq affinity.
    However, every function pointed by
   hw_interrupt_type->set_affinity(unsigned int irq, cpumask_t cpumask)
   always changes irq_affinity[irq] to cpumask.  Next time when recalling
   do_irq_balance, it has to do cpu_ands again with
   irq_affinity[selected_irq], but irq_affinity[selected_irq] already
   becomes one cpu selected by the first irq balance.

2) Function balance_irq in file arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c has the same
   issue.

ba528f2854 [PATCH] fix x86 microcode driver handling of multiple matching revisions
When multiple updates matching a given CPU are found in the update file, the
action taken by the microcode update driver was inappropriate:

- when lower revision microcode was found before matching or higher revision
  one, the driver would needlessly complain that it would not downgrade the
  CPU
- when microcode matching the currently installed revision was found before
  newer revision code, no update would actually take place

To change this behavior, the driver now concludes about possibly updates and
issues messages only when the entire input was parsed.

Additionally, this adds back (in different places, and conditionalized upon
a new module option) some messages removed by a previous patch.

sys_move_pages() support for 32bit (i386 plus x86_64 compat layer)

Add support for move_pages() on i386 and also add the compat functions
necessary to run 32 bit binaries on x86_64.

Add compat_sys_move_pages to the x86_64 32bit binary layer.  Note that it is
not up to date so I added the missing pieces.  Not sure if this is done the
right way.

491b07c98f [PATCH] redirect speedstep-centrino maintainer mail to cpufreq list
I haven't really maintained this driver for a while, and I'm not
keeping up with the latest in Intel power management.  I get a steady
stream of mail which I don't really do anything useful with; the
cpufreq list seems like a better destination, unless someone wants to
get the mail directly.

Also clean up a couple of ancient comments which don't really apply
anymore (as far as I know, nobody has ever damaged a CPU with this
driver).

ead2bfeb7f [PATCH] PCI: fix issues with extended conf space when MMCONFIG disabled because of e820
On 15 Jun 2006 03:45:10 +0200, Andi Kleen wrote:

According to Petr Vandrovec:

 ... "What is important (and checked) is address of MMCONFIG reported by MCFG
 table...  Unfortunately code does not bother with printing that address :-(

 "Another problem is that code has hardcoded that MMCONFIG area is 256MB large.
 Unfortunately for the code PCI specification allows any power of two between 2MB
 and 256MB if vendor knows that such amount of busses (from 2 to 128) will be
 sufficient for system.  With notebook it is quite possible that not full 8 bits
 are implemented for MMCONFIG bus number."

So here is a patch.  Unfortunately my system still fails the test because
it doesn't reserve any part of the MMCONFIG area, but this may fix others.

Booted on x86_64, only compiled on i386.  x86_64 still remaps the max area
(256MB) even though only 2MB is checked... but 2.6.16 had no check at all
so it is still better.

PCI: reduce size of x86 MMCONFIG reserved area check

1.  Print the address of the MMCONFIG area when the test for that area
    being reserved fails.

2.  Only check if the first 2MB is reserved, as that is the minimum.

acc7c2e0b7 [PATCH] PCI: fix memory leak in MMCONFIG error path
This a bit late (yours patch was posted about a year ago), but
a co-worker of spotted part of the code that looks like a memory
leak. Looking at the code it seems that pci_mmcfg_config should
be free-ed if MMCONFIG is above 4GB.

53e4d30dd6 [PATCH] PCI: i386/x86_84: disable PCI resource decode on device disable
When a PCI device is disabled via pci_disable_device(), it's still
left decoding its BAR resource ranges even though its driver
will have likely released those regions (and may even have
unloaded). pci_enable_device() already explicitly enables
BAR resource decode for the device being enabled. This patch
disables resource decode for the PCI device being disabled,
making it symmetric with the enable call.

I saw this while doing something else, not because of a
problem report. Still, seems to be the correct thing to do.
