c801147c5a [PATCH] SiS DRM: Fix possible NULL dereference
This fixes a NULL pointer reference in DRM.  The SiS driver tries to

8926bfa746 [PATCH] USB: ehci fixups
Rename the EHCI "reset" routine so it better matches what it does (setup);
and move the one-time data structure setup earlier, before doing anything
that implicitly relies on it having been completed already.

8de9840265 [PATCH] USB: Fix USB suspend/resume crasher (#2)
This patch closes the IRQ race and makes various other OHCI & EHCI code
path safer vs. suspend/resume.
I've been able to (finally !) successfully suspend and resume various
Mac models, with or without USB mouse plugged, or plugging while asleep,
or unplugging while asleep etc... all without a crash.

Alan, please verify the UHCI bit I did, I only verified that it builds.
It's very simple so I wouldn't expect any issue there. If you aren't
confident, then just drop the hunks that change uhci-hcd.c

I also made the patch a little bit more "safer" by making sure the store
to the interrupt register that disables interrupts is not posted before
I set the flag and drop the spinlock.

Without this patch, you cannot reliably sleep/wakeup any recent Mac, and
I suspect PCs have some more sneaky issues too (they don't frankly crash
with machine checks because x86 tend to silently swallow PCI errors but
that won't last afaik, at least PCI Express will blow up in those
situations, but the USB code may still misbehave).

987d24018d [MTD] CFI: Use 16-bit access to autoselect/read device id data
Recent models of Intel/Sharp and Spansion CFI flash now have significant
bits in the upper byte of device ID codes, read via what Spansion calls
"autoselect" and Intel calls "read device identifier".  Currently these
values are truncated to the low 8 bits in the mtd data structures, as
all CFI read query info has previously been read one byte at a time.
Add a new method for reading 16-bit info, currently just manufacturer
and device codes; datasheets hint at future uses for upper bytes in
other fields.

6aea114a72 [PATCH] md: fix --re-add for raid1 and raid6
If you have an array with a write-intent-bitmap, and you remove a device, then
re-add it, a full recovery isn't needed.  We detect a re-add by looking at
saved_raid_disk.  For raid1, it doesn't matter which disk it was, only whether
or not it was an active device.  The old code being removed set a value of
'mirror' which was then ignored, so it can go.  The changed code performs the
correct check.

For raid6, if there are two missing devices, make sure we chose the right slot
on --re-add rather than always the first slot.

22dfdf5212 [PATCH] md: improve read speed to raid10 arrays using 'far copies'
raid10 has two different layouts.  One uses near-copies (so multiple
copies of a block are at the same or similar offsets of different
devices) and the other uses far-copies (so multiple copies of a block
are stored a greatly different offsets on different devices).  The point
of far-copies is that it allows the first section (normally first half)
to be layed out in normal raid0 style, and thus provide raid0 sequential
read performance.

Unfortunately, the read balancing in raid10 makes some poor decisions
for far-copies arrays and you don't get the desired performance.  So
turn off that bad bit of read_balance for far-copies arrays.

With this patch, read speed of an 'f2' array is comparable with a raid0
with the same number of devices, though write speed is ofcourse still
very slow.

a9d9baa1e8 [PATCH] clean up lock_cpu_hotplug() in cpufreq
There are some callers in cpufreq hotplug notify path that the lowest
function calls lock_cpu_hotplug().  The lock is already held during
cpu_up() and cpu_down() calls when the notify calls are broadcast to
registered clients.

Ideally if possible, we could disable_preempt() at the highest caller and
make sure we dont sleep in the path down in cpufreq->driver_target() calls
but the calls are so intertwined and cumbersome to cleanup.

Hence we consistently use lock_cpu_hotplug() and unlock_cpu_hotplug() in
all places.

 - Removed export of cpucontrol semaphore and made it static.
 - removed explicit uses of up/down with lock_cpu_hotplug()
   so we can keep track of the the callers in same thread context and
   just keep refcounts without calling a down() that causes a deadlock.
 - Removed current_in_hotplug() uses
 - Removed PF_HOTPLUG_CPU in sched.h introduced for the current_in_hotplug()
   temporary workaround.

Tested with insmod of cpufreq_stat.ko, and logical online/offline
to make sure we dont have any hang situations.

6aab341e0a mm: re-architect the VM_UNPAGED logic
This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very
explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP.  It allows a
VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM
never touches, and never considers to be normal pages.

Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new
functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or
indeed mark them any other way.  It just works.  As a side effect, doing
mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges.

cf65f1623d drm: fix quiescent locking
A fix for a locking bug which is triggered when a client tries to lock with
flag DMA_QUIESCENT (typically the X server), but gets interrupted by a signal.
The locking IOCTL should then return an error, but if DMA_QUIESCENT succeeds
it returns 0, and the client falsely thinks it has the lock. In addition
The client waits for DMA_QUISCENT and possibly DMA_READY without having the lock.
