685db65e42 [PATCH] time_interpolator: Use readq_relaxed() instead of readq().
On some platforms readq performs additional work to make sure I/O is done
in a coherent way.  This is not needed for time retrieval as done by the
time interpolator.  So we can use readq_relaxed instead which will improve
performance.

It affects sparc64 and ia64 only.  Apparently it makes a significant
difference on ia64.

46f6dac259 [PATCH] v9fs: simplify fid mapping
v9fs has been plagued by an over-complicated approach trying to map Linux
dentry semantics to Plan 9 fid semantics.  Our previous approach called for
aggressive flushing of the dcache resulting in several problems (including
wierd cwd behavior when running /bin/pwd).

This patch dramatically simplifies our handling of this fid management.  Fids
will not be clunked as promptly, but the new approach is more functionally
correct.  We now clunk un-open fids only when their dentry ref_count reaches 0
(and d_delete is called).

Another simplification is we no longer seek to match fids to the process-id or
uid of the action initiator.  The uid-matching will need to be revisited when
we fix the security model.

2fe22a8bba [PATCH] pcmcia: add id for AMB8110 PC Card
The axnet_cs driver can support the AMB8110 PC Card, so add the id for it.

In the old pcmcia-cs config file, this card is listed with the comment "not
specific enough".  The last entry in the axnet_ids has the same comment.
They are disabled, and for good reason as it was originally identified by
the MANFID, and that is shared with several cards that use both the
pcnet_cs driver and axnet_cs driver.  I tried my AMB8110 with pcnet_cs, and
found that it works fine, and I cannot find a reason for either, except
that the old config file recommended axnet_cs.

9cff3372bf [PATCH] drivers/mtd/redboot.c: recognise a foreign byte sex partition table
The RedBoot boot loader writes flash partition tables containing native
byte sex 32 bit values.  When booting an opposite byte sex kernel (e.g.  an
LE kernel from BE RedBoot) the current MTD driver fails to handle the
partition table and therefore is unable to generate the correct partition
map for the flash.

So far as I am aware this problem is ARM specific, because only ARM
supports software change of the CPU (memory system) byte sex, however the
partition table parsing is in generic MTD code.  The patch below has been
tested on NSLU2 (an IXP4XX based system) with a patch,
10-ixp4xx-copy-from.patch (submitted to linux-arm-kernel - it's ARM
specific) required to make the maps/ixp4xx.c driver work with an LE kernel.

Builds of the patched system are in the 'unstable' release of OpenSlug and
UcSlugC available from www.nslu2-linux.org.  These builds are BE, the
archives at www.nslu2-linux.org and www.handhelds.org (see
monotone.vanille.de) can be built LE (currently DISTRO targets
nslu-ltu.conf for LE thumb uclibc (32 bit kernel) and nslu2-lau.conf,
nslu2-lag.conf for LE arm uclibc/glibc) and this patch has been tested
extensively will both BE and LE systems on the NSLU2 (including swapping
between BE and LE by reflashing from both RedBoot and Linux).

The patch recognises that the FIS directory (the partition table) is
byte-reversed by examining the partition table size, which is known to be
one erase block (this is an assumption made elsewhere in redboot.c).  If
the size matches the erase block after byte swapping the value then
byte-reversal is assumed, if not no further action is taken.  The patched
code is fail safe; should redboot.c be changed to support a partition table
with a modified size field the test will fail and the partition table will
be assumed to have the host byte sex.

If byte-reversal is detected the patch byte swaps the remainder of the 32
bit fields in the copy of the table; this copy is then used to set up the
MTD partition map.

50322fe7d4 [PATCH] fuse: fix bug in negative lookup
If negative entries (nodeid == 0) were sent in reply to LOOKUP requests,
two bugs could be triggered:

- looking up a negative entry would return -EIO,

- revaildate on an entry which turned negative would send a FORGET
  request with zero nodeid, which would cause an abort() in the
  library.

The above would only happen if the 'negative_timeout=N' option was used,
otherwise lookups reply -ENOENT, which worked correctly.

511030bcd2 [PATCH] Fix sys_migrate_pages: Move all pages when invoked from root
Currently sys_migrate_pages only moves pages belonging to a process.  This
is okay when invoked from a regular user.  But if invoked from root it
should move all pages as documented in the migrate_pages manpage.

5cf6c541f5 [PATCH] x86 microcode driver vs hotplug CPUs.
This driver loops over 'num_online_cpus', but it doesn't account for holes
in the online map created by offlined cpus, and assumes that the cpu
numbers stay linear.
