2c3bb20f46 [PATCH] add receive_room flow control to flush_to_ldisc
Flush data serially to line discipline in blocks no larger than
tty->receive_room to avoid losing data if line discipline is busy (such as
N_TTY operating at high speed on heavily loaded system) or does not accept
data in large blocks (such as N_MOUSE).

817d6d3bce [PATCH] remove TTY_DONT_FLIP
Remove TTY_DONT_FLIP tty flag.  This flag was introduced in 2.1.X kernels
to prevent the N_TTY line discipline functions read_chan() and
n_tty_receive_buf() from running at the same time.  2.2.15 introduced
tty->read_lock to protect access to the N_TTY read buffer, which is the
only state requiring protection between these two functions.

The current TTY_DONT_FLIP implementation is broken for SMP, and is not
universally honored by drivers that send data directly to the line
discipline receive_buf function.

Because TTY_DONT_FLIP is not necessary, is broken in implementation, and is
not universally honored, it is removed.

f71d20e961 [PATCH] Add EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL and EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL_GPL
Temporarily add EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL and EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL_GPL.  These
will be used as a transition measure for symbols that aren't used in the
kernel and are on the way out.  When a module uses such a symbol, a warning
is printk'd at modprobe time.

The main reason for removing unused exports is size: eacho export takes
roughly between 100 and 150 bytes of kernel space in the binary.  This
patch gives users the option to immediately get this size gain via a config
option.

d6fcb3b9cf [PATCH] i2c-i801.c: don't pci_disable_device() after it was just enabled
Commit 02dd7ae289 ("[PATCH] i2c-i801:
Merge setup function") has a missing return 0 in the _probe() function.
This means the error path is always executed and pci_disable_device() is
called even when the device just got successfully enabled.

Having the SMBus device disabled makes some systems (eg.
Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook E8010) hang hard during power-off.

Intead of reverting the whole commit this patch fixes it up:
- don't ever call pci_disable_device(), also not in the _remove() function
  to avoid hangs
- fix missing pci_release_region() in error path

Collection of fixes for the ColdFire FEC ethernet driver:

. reworked event setting so that it occurs after the MII setup.
  roucaries bastien <roucaries.bastien@gmail.com>
. Do not read cbd_sc in memory for each bit we test. Once per buffer is enough.
. Overrun errors must increase `rx_fifo_errors', not `rx_crc_errors'
. No need for a special value to activate rx or tx.  Only write access matters.
. Simplify parameter of eth_copy_and_sum : `data' has already the right value.
. Some spelling fixes.

3f787bff45 [PATCH] m68knommu: remove useless compiler args
Here is a small patch that made my kernel .text segment shrink by 8k IIRC
on my 5272-based board, by removing `-Wa,-S' from CFLAGS.

The `-Wa,-S' option prevents `gas' from using short forms of jsr.
Without it, `gas' replaces `jsr xxx.l' (6 bytes) by `jsr xxx@pc'
(4 bytes) when possible.  On 5272, both forms are equally fast.

The `-Wa,-m5307' option is useless, because gcc already gives it
to `gas' from the `-m5307' option.

holds the lock on which the task whose priority is changed is blocked.

0bafd214e4 [PATCH] rtmutex: Modify rtmutex-tester to test the setscheduler propagation
Make test suite setscheduler calls asynchronously.  Remove the waits in the
test cases and add a new testcase to verify the correctness of the
setscheduler priority propagation.

e74c69f46d [PATCH] Drop tasklist lock in do_sched_setscheduler
There is no need to hold tasklist_lock across the setscheduler call, when
we pin the task structure with get_task_struct().  Interrupts are disabled
in setscheduler anyway and the permission checks do not need interrupts
disabled.

b29739f902 [PATCH] pi-futex: scheduler support for pi
Add framework to boost/unboost the priority of RT tasks.

This consists of:

 - caching the 'normal' priority in ->normal_prio
 - providing a functions to set/get the priority of the task
 - make sched_setscheduler() aware of boosting

The effective_prio() cleanups also fix a priority-calculation bug pointed out
by Andrey Gelman, in set_user_nice().
