e176d397ad [PATCH] PCMCIA: fix drivers broken by recent cleanup
Setting .ConfigBase and .Present is now done at the pcmcia core.

The driver cleanup missed a few places where the driver did set .Present
to PRESENT_OPTION and later to the values from the CIS.  Setting to
PRESENT_OPTION now overrides the values from the CIS.  So just remove
those lines.

Also prevent any attempt to write to firmware space if it cannot be write

also not having a respective RNG).

e3db7691e9 [PATCH] NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()
NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()

    invalidate_inode_pages2() may find the dirty bit has been set on a page
    owing to the fact that the page may still be mapped after it was locked.
    Only after the call to unmap_mapping_range() are we sure that the page
    can no longer be dirtied.
    In order to fix this, NFS has hooked the releasepage() method and tries
    to write the page out between the call to unmap_mapping_range() and the
    call to remove_mapping(). This, however leads to deadlocks in the page
    reclaim code, where the page may be locked without holding a reference
    to the inode or dentry.

    Fix is to add a new address_space_operation, launder_page(), which will
    attempt to write out a dirty page without releasing the page lock.

    Also, the bare SetPageDirty() can skew all sort of accounting leading to
    other nasties.

Fixing this in raid1 and raid10 seems to be straightforward enough.

For our particular usage case in DRBD, passing this flag improved some

b282b6f8a8 [PATCH] Change cpu_up and co from __devinit to __cpuinit
Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n
with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b7d) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__cpu_up
from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141bd8) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c05) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c26) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up'

This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are
defined as __devinit
AND
__cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions.

Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration,
we get a .text refering .init.data warning.

This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up
and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since
the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or
are of __init type.

Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up
in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would
land up in .init section.

Tested on a i386 SMP machine running linux-2.6.20-rc3-mm1.

47a4d5be7c [PATCH] increment pos before looking for the next cap in __pci_find_next_ht_cap
While testing 2.6.20-rc3 on a machine with some CK804 chipsets, we noticed
that quirk_nvidia_ck804_msi_ht_cap() was not detecting HT MSI capabilities
anymore.  It is actually caused by the MSI mapping on the root chipset
being the 2nd HT capability in the chain.  pci_find_ht_capability() does
not seem to find anything but the first HT cap correctly, because it
forgets to increment the position before looking for the next cap.  The
following patch seems to fix it.

At least, this proves that having a ttl is good idea since the machine
would have been stucked in an infinite loop if we didn't have a ttl :)

We have to pass pos + PCI_CAP_LIST_NEXT to __pci_find_next_cap_ttl to
get the next HT cap instead of the same one again.

e5e5673f82 [PATCH] sched: tasks cannot run on cpus onlined after boot
Commit 5c1e176781 ("sched: force /sbin/init
off isolated cpus") sets init's cpus_allowed to a subset of cpu_online_map
at boot time, which means that tasks won't be scheduled on cpus that are
added to the system later.

Make init's cpus_allowed a subset of cpu_possible_map instead.  This should
still preserve the behavior that Nick's change intended.

Thanks to Giuliano Pochini for reporting this and testing the fix:

c71551ad30 Don't put "linux_banner" in the .init section
It might save a few bytes after bootup, but it causes the string to be
linked in at the end of the final vmlinux image, which defeats the whole
point of doing all this, namely allowing some broken user-space binaries
to search for the kernel version string in the kernel binary.

So just remove the __init specifier.

o Some functions which should have been in init sections as they are called
  only once. Put them in init sections. Otherwise MODPOST generates warning
  as these functions are placed in .text and they end up accessing something
  in init sections.

ed5316d445 [PATCH] x86-64: - Ignore long SMI interrupts in clock calibration
Ensure that no SMI interrupts occur between the read of the HPET & TSC
in the clock calibration loop.

I noticed that a 2.66GHz system incorrectly detected the processor
clock speed about 1/7 of the time:

	time.c: Detected 2660.005 MHz processor.	(most of the time)
	time.c: Detected 2988.203 MHz processor.	(sometime)

The problem is caused by an SMI interrupt occuring in hpet_calibrate_tsc()
between the read of the HPET & TSC. Prior to switching the BIOS into
ACPI mode, it appears that every 27msec an SMI interrupt occurs. The
SMI interrupt takes 4.8 msec to process.

Note: On my test system, TICK_MIN had to be >380. I picked 5000
to minimize risk of having a value that is too small for other
platforms.

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:_einittext from .text between 'get_symbol_pos' (at offset 0xc013577d) and 'reset_iter'

o These symbols (__init_begin, _sinittext, _einittext) belong to init
  section and generally represent a section boundary. These are special
  symbols in the sense that their size is zero and no memory is allocated
  for them in init section. Their addr and value are same. So even if
  we free the init section, it is ok to reference them.

o Whitelist access to such select symbols in MODPOST.

118c0ace1b [PATCH] x86-64: modpost add more symbols to whitelist pattern2
o MODPOST generates warning for i386 if compiled with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
  and serial console support is enabled.

o Serial console setup function, serial8250_console_setup(), is a non __init
  function and it calls functions which are of type __init().
  (uart_parse_options() and uart_set_options()). Assuming, setup will
  be called during init time, changing serial8250_console_setup() to __init.

o Adding one more pattern to modpost whitelist. Console drivers might
  have *_console structures containing references to setup functions which
  can be of __init type. Don't generate warnings for those.

e96763d6e5 [PATCH] i386: make apic probe function non-init
o struct genapic contains pointer to probe() function which is of type
  __init. Hence MODPOST generates warning if kernel is compiled with
  CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y for i386.

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_summit' (at offset 0xc058b504) and 'apic_bigsmp'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_bigsmp' (at offset 0xc058b5a4) and 'cpu.4471'

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_default' (at offset 0xc058b6e4) and 'interrupt'

o One of the possible options is to put special case check in MODPOST to
  not emit warnings for this case but I think it is not a very good option
  in terms of maintenance.

o Another option is to make probe() function non __init. Anyway this function
  is really small so not freeing this memory after init is not a big deal.
  Secondly, from a programming perspective, probably genapic should not
  provide pointers to functions which have been freed as genapic is non
  __init and is used even after initialization is complete.

4a5d107a9a [PATCH] i386: cpu hotplug/smpboot misc MODPOST warning fixes
o Misc smpboot/cpu hotplug path cleanups. I did those to supress the
  warnings generated by MODPOST. These warnings are visible only
  if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

o CONFIG_RELOCATABLE compiles the kernel with --emit-relocs option. This
  option retains relocation information in vmlinux file and MODPOST
  is quick to spit out "Section mismatch" warnings.

o This patch fixes some of those warnings. Many of the functions in
  smpboot case are __devinit type and they in turn accesses text/data which
  if of type __cpuinit. Now if CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n
  then we end up in cases where a function in .text segment is calling
  another function in .init.text segment and MODPOST emits warning.

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:identify_cpu from .text between 'smp_store_cpu_info' (at offset 0xc011020d) and 'do_boot_cpu'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:init_gdt from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01102ca) and '__cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:print_cpu_info from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01105d0) and '__cpu_up'

o It also fixes the issues where CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and start_secondary()
  is calling smp_callin() which in-turn calls synchronize_tsc_ap() which is
  of type __init. This should have meant broken CPU hotplug.

8a93c4968f [MIPS] Alchemy: Fix PCI-memory access
The problem was introduced in 2.6.18.3 with the casting of some
    36bit-defines (PCI memory) in au1000.h to resource_size_t which may be
    u32 or u64 depending on the experimental CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT.
    
    With unset CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, the pci-memory cannot be accessed
    because the ioremap in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c already used the
    truncated addresses.
    With set CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, things get even worse, because PCI-scan
    aborts, due to resource conflict: request_resource() in arch/mips/pci/pci.c
    fails because the maximum iomem-address is 0xffffffff (32bit) but the
    pci-memory-start-address is 0x440000000 (36bit).
    
    To get pci working again, I propose the following patch:
    
    1. remove the resource_size_t-casting from au1000.h again
    2. make the casting in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c (it's allowed and
    necessary here. The 36bit-handling will be done in __fixup_bigphys_addr).
    
    With this patch pci works again like in 2.6.18.2, the gcc-compile warnings
    in pci.c are gone and it doesn't depend on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL.
