Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/.
Patch originally by Randy Dunlap.
o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3
o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently,
the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc
o Cleaned up unneeded #includes
o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break
on archs that don't have kretprobes
o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES
o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git
o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to
determine routine execution times:
Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=<func_name>' to determine
execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.

Add CONFIG_HAVE_KRETPROBES to the arch/<arch>/Kconfig file for relevant
architectures with kprobes support. This facilitates easy handling of
in-kernel modules (like samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c) that depend on
kretprobes being present in the kernel.
Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for helping make the patch more lean.
Per Mathieu's suggestion, added CONFIG_KRETPROBES and fixed up dependencies.

VT notifier callbacks need to be aware of console switches. This is already
partially done from console_callback(), but at that time fg_console, cursor
positions, etc. are not yet updated and hence screen readers fetch the old

Some oprofile results obtained while using tbench on a 2x2 cpu machine were
very surprising.
For example, loopback_xmit() function was using high number of cpu cycles
to perform the statistic updates, supposed to be real cheap since they use
percpu data
pcpu_lstats = netdev_priv(dev);
lb_stats = per_cpu_ptr(pcpu_lstats, smp_processor_id());
lb_stats->packets++; /* HERE : serious contention */
lb_stats->bytes += skb->len;
struct pcpu_lstats is a small structure containing two longs. It appears
that on my 32bits platform, alloc_percpu(8) allocates a single cache line,
instead of giving to each cpu a separate cache line.
Using the following patch gave me impressive boost in various benchmarks
( 6 % in tbench)
(all percpu_counters hit this bug too)
Long term fix (ie >= 2.6.26) would be to let each CPU allocate their own
block of memory, so that we dont need to roudup sizes to L1_CACHE_BYTES, or
merging the SGI stuff of course...
Note : SLUB vs SLAB is important here to *show* the improvement, since they
dont have the same minimum allocation sizes (8 bytes vs 32 bytes). This
could very well explain regressions some guys reported when they switched
to SLUB.

Add a <linux/gpio.h> defining fail/warn stubs for GPIO calls on platforms that
don't support the GPIO programming interface. That includes the arch-specific
implementation glue otherwise.
This facilitates a new model for GPIO usage: drivers that can use GPIOs if
they're available, but don't require them. One example of such a driver is
NAND driver for various FreeScale chips. On platforms update with GPIO
support, they can be used instead of a worst-case delay to verify that the
BUSY signal is off.

Commit 2f569afd9c
(CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables) introduced use of
inc_zone_page_state and dec_zone_page_state in include/linux/mm.h.
Those are defined in include/linux/vmstat.h, but after it includes
mm.h, making it impossible to include vmstat.h since inc_zone_page_state
and dec_zone_page_state then would be undefined.
arch/cris/arch-v10/kernel/time.c does just this, which makes the
CRIS v10 build break with the following error:

The definitions of struct pci_device_id arrays should generally follow
the same pattern across the entire kernel. This macro defines this
array as const and puts it into the __devinitconst section.
There are currently many definitions scattered about the kernel that
omit the __devinitdata modifier despite the documentation stating that
it should always be there. These definitions really also should have
been const, which wasn't possible before but has become so with the
addition of the __devinitconst attribute.
Furthermore, there are definitions that use "const" and __devinitdata,
which is explicitly wrong but the compiler doesn't catch section
mismatches if there's only one such one case in the module (which is
often the case).
Adding the __devinitconst modifier where there was nothing before buys
us memory. Adding the const modifier gives the compiler a chance to do
its thing. Changing __devinitdata to __devinitconst where it was wrong
actually fixes some compiler errors in older (mid-release) kernels that
were patched over by "removing" the section attribute altogether (which
wastes memory).
This macro makes it pretty difficult to get this definition wrong in
the future...

USB: ehci: Fixes completion for multi-qtd URB the short read case
When use of urb->status in the EHCI driver was reworked last August
(commit 14c04c0f88), a bug was inserted
in the handling of early completion for bulk transactions that need
more than one qTD (e.g. more than 20KB in one URB).
This patch resolves that problem by ensuring that the early completion
status is preserved until the URB is handed back to its submitter,
instead of resetting it after each qTD.
