6c76988b81 [MIPS] Do not discard extra debugging sections.
Leaving these sections is useful to some tools that look at the image, and
none of them are loaded into memory.  The .mdebug.abi64 section, in
particular, lets GDB recognize vmlinux.32 as an N64 program instead of
guessing that it is O32.

b015124e56 [x86 setup] Volatilize asm() statements
asm() statements need to be volatile when:

a. They have side effects (other than value returned).
b. When the value returned can vary over time.
c. When they have ordering constraints that cannot be expressed to gcc.

In particular, the keyboard and timer reads were violating constraint (b),
which resulted in the keyboard/timeout poll getting
loop-invariant-removed when compiling with gcc 4.2.0.

Thanks to an anonymous bug reporter for pointing this out.

2aa44d0567 sched: sched_clock_idle_[sleep|wakeup]_event()
construct a more or less wall-clock time out of sched_clock(), by
using ACPI-idle's existing knowledge about how much time we spent
idling. This allows the rq clock to work around TSC-stops-in-C2,
TSC-gets-corrupted-in-C3 type of problems.

( Besides the scheduler's statistics this also benefits blktrace and
  printk-timestamps as well. )

Furthermore, the precise before-C2/C3-sleep and after-C2/C3-wakeup
callbacks allow the scheduler to get out the most of the period where
the CPU has a reliable TSC. This results in slightly more precise
task statistics.

the ACPI bits were acked by Len.

0852ec8cc1 Xen i386 xen-head.S fix sections mixup
Xen i386 xen-head.S fix sections mixup

xen-head.S does not come back to the data section, leaving the text section
as current section. It causes problems with a slightly enhanced DEBUG_RODATA
that supports CONFIG_HOTPLUG and bringing a CPU up after the text has been
marked read-only: reference to early_gdt_descr causes a page fault.

Updates:

- It should be using pushsection/popsection.
- Actually, the push/popsections around the ELFNOTEs are redundant; ELFNOTE()
  does its own push/popsection to put things into the appropriate .note* section
  anyway.

f4768ffd1d uml: fix previous request size limit fix
The previous patch which limited the number of sectors in a single request
to a COWed device was correct in concept, but the limit was implemented in
the wrong place.

By putting it in ubd_add, it covered the cases where the COWing was
specified on the command line.  However, when the command line only has the
COW file specified, the fact that it's a COW file isn't known until it's
opened, so the limit is missed in these cases.

This patch moves the sector limit from ubd_add to ubd_open_dev.

9c5f225f1a [S390] kprobes: fix instruction length calculation
Placing a kprobe on "bc" instruction (s390/s390x) can cause an oops.
The instruction length is encoded into the first two bits of the s390
instruction. Kprobe is incorrectly computing the instruction length.
The instruction length is used for determining what type of "fix-up" is
needed for conditional branch instruction. The problem can bee seen by
placing a kprobe on a "bc" instruction that will not branch. The
results is that Kprobe incorrectly computes the new instruction
pointer (psw.addr) after single stepping the instruction. The problem
is corrected with this patch.

9b5a03e198 [S390] hypfs: inode corruption due to missing locking
hypfs removes the whole hypfs directory tree and creates a new one, when a
process triggers an update by writing to the "update" attribute. When removing
and creating files, it is necessary to lock the inode of the parent directory
where the files live. Currently hypfs does not lock the parent inode, which
can lead to inode corruption. This patch:
 * Introduces correct locking
 * Fixes i_nlink reference counting for inodes, when creating directories
 * Adds info printk, when hypfs filesystem has been mounted

da2f5f7bf4 sh: Fix DSP opcode regression for SH3-DSP parts.
Older versions of binutils do not support -Wa,-isa= tuning, which is
something we rely on for enabling DSP opcode support on the newer
parts. SH3-DSP parts can still be handled with -Wa,-dsp even if the
newer parts require the newer versions of binutils for supporting the
new opcodes.

This was broken in -rc1 when the SH4AL-DSP support was being reworked,
and is needed to get SH3-DSP working with older toolchains again.

Some host drivers depend on CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC to do the probing but their
config options lack explicit dependencies on IDE_GENERIC.  In the long-term
these host drivers should be fixed to do the probing themselves but for now
fix them by making their config options select CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC.

d34fda4a84 x86: properly initialize temp insn buffer for paravirt patching
With commit ab144f5ec6 the patching code
now collects the complete new instruction stream into a temp buffer
before finally patching in the new insns.  In some cases the paravirt
patchers will choose to leave the patch site unpatched (length mismatch,
clobbers mismatch, etc).

This causes the new patching code to copy an uninitialized temp buffer,
i.e.  garbage, to the callsite.  Simply make sure to always initialize
the buffer with the original instruction stream.  A better fix is to
audit all the patchers and return proper length so that apply_paravirt()
can skip copies when we leave the patch site untouched.

f0f12d85af x86_64: Check for .cfi_rel_offset in CFI probe
Very old 64bit binutils have .cfi_startproc/endproc, but
no .cfi_rel_offset. Check for .cfi_rel_offset too.
