9c45817f41 [PATCH] Remove non-arch consumers of asm/segment.h
asm/segment.h varies greatly on different architectures but is clearly
deprecated.  Removing all non-architecture consumers will make it easier
for us to get ride of asm/segment.h all together.

2d237c6365 [PATCH] Console blanking locking fix
I've had WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED warnings when calling TIOCLINUX
TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN and TIOCL_UNBLANKSCREEN.

(I'm blind and I use a braille display.  I use those functions to blank my
laptop's screen so people don't read it, and hopefully to conserve power.)

The warnings are from these places:
do_blank_screen at drivers/char/vt.c:2754 (Not tainted)
save_screen at drivers/char/vt.c:575 (Not tainted)
do_unblank_screen at drivers/char/vt.c:2822 (Not tainted)
set_palette at drivers/char/vt.c:2908 (Not tainted)

At a glance I would think the following patch ought to fix that.  Tested on
one machine.  Could you please tell me if this is correct and/or forward
the patch where appropriate...

ea2f1590aa [PATCH] yenta: make ToPIC95 bridges work with 16bit cards
ToPIC95 brides (and maybe some other too) require to use the ExCA registers
to power up the socket if a 16bit card is pluged.  allow socket drivers to
set a flag so that yenta does just that.  also clean up yenta_get_status()
a bit to use the new yenta_get_power() function.

Side note: ToPIC97 bridges (at least in Rev.5 i have) don't require this.

Ryan Underwood <nemesis-lists@icequake.net> said:

 According to the mail that David Hinds received from a Toshiba engineer,
 ToPIC95 and 97 do require this, and ToPIC100 does not.  Maybe you have a
 later revision.

 For all chips, 16-bit cards can be enabled through ExCA.  So doesn't it
 make sense just to make this the default behavior for all Toshiba chips,
 to avoid corner cases showing up later?

Daniel responded:

 I disagree with ryan to change anything for topic97 bridges.  they work.
 and I couldn't find (read google) any report of a topic97 breaking on
 applying power with the CB registers.

 I'm having several toshba notebooks at work (and home) with topic95,97,100
 bridges.  Only the ones with a topic95 didn't work.

8446f1d391 [PATCH] detect soft lockups
This patch adds a new kernel debug feature: CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP.

When enabled then per-CPU watchdog threads are started, which try to run
once per second.  If they get delayed for more than 10 seconds then a
callback from the timer interrupt detects this condition and prints out a
warning message and a stack dump (once per lockup incident).  The feature
is otherwise non-intrusive, it doesnt try to unlock the box in any way, it
only gets the debug info out, automatically, and on all CPUs affected by
the lockup.

54d5d42404 [PATCH] x86/x86_64: deferred handling of writes to /proc/irqxx/smp_affinity
When handling writes to /proc/irq, current code is re-programming rte
entries directly. This is not recommended and could potentially cause
chipset's to lockup, or cause missing interrupts.

CONFIG_IRQ_BALANCE does this correctly, where it re-programs only when the
interrupt is pending. The same needs to be done for /proc/irq handling as well.
Otherwise user space irq balancers are really not doing the right thing.

- Changed pending_irq_balance_cpumask to pending_irq_migrate_cpumask for
  lack of a generic name.
- added move_irq out of IRQ_BALANCE, and added this same to X86_64
- Added new proc handler for write, so we can do deferred write at irq
  handling time.
- Display of /proc/irq/XX/smp_affinity used to display CPU_MASKALL, instead
  it now shows only active cpu masks, or exactly what was set.
- Provided a common move_irq implementation, instead of duplicating
  when using generic irq framework.

Tested on i386/x86_64 and ia64 with CONFIG_PCI_MSI turned on and off.
Tested UP builds as well.

MSI testing: tbd: I have cards, need to look for a x-over cable, although I
did test an earlier version of this patch.  Will test in a couple days.

c0f2f761e1 [SPARC64]: Kconfig fix (GEN_RTC dependencies)
Yet another architecture not coverd by GEN_RTC - sparc64 never picked
it until now and it doesn't have asm/rtc.h to go with it, so it
wouldn't compile anyway (or have these ioctls in the user-visible
headers, for that matter).

FWIW, I'm very tempted to introduce ARCH_HAS_GEN_RTC and have it set
in arch/*/Kconfig for architectures that know what to do with this
stuff - for something supposedly generic the list of architectures
where it doesn't work is getting too long...

Grundler and DaveM. This scheme makes it unnecessary to clear the

a simple comparison is needed to determine if there are new events.

removed. It is unnecessary with DaveM's new locking scheme.

61487480dd [TG3]: Remove status block access in tg3_msi() and add prefetches
Remove unnecessary status block accesses in tg3_msi(). Since MSI is
not shared, it is unnecessary to read the status block to determine if
there are any new events in the MSI handler. It is also unnecessary to
clear the updated bit in the status block.

Since the poll list is per-cpu, tg3_poll() will be scheduled to run on
the same CPU that received the MSI. Prefetches for the status block
and the next rx descriptors are added in tg3_msi() to improve their
access times when tg3_poll() runs.

In the non-MSI irq handlers, we need to check the status block because
interrupts may be shared. Only prefetches for the next rx descriptors
are added.

76d1ce00bd [PATCH] Driver core: link device and all class devices derived from it.
Driver core: link device and all class devices derived from it.

To ease the task of locating class devices derived from a certain
device create symlinks from parent device to its class devices.
Change USB host class device name from usbX to usb_hostX to avoid
conflict when creating aforementioned links.

Tweaked by Greg to have the symlink be "class_name:class_device_name" in
order to prevent duplicate links.

d65da6eae1 [PATCH] Fix manual binding infinite loop
Fix for manual binding of drivers to devices.  Problem is if you pass in
a valid device id, but the driver refuses to bind.  Infinite loop as
write() tries to resubmit the data it just sent.

Thanks to Michal Ostrowski <mostrows@watson.ibm.com> for pointing the
problem out.

    New driver - spectrum_cs.

    Driver for 802.11b cards using RAM-loadable Symbol firmware, such as
    Symbol Wireless Networker LA4100, CompactFlash cards by Socket
    Communications and Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B.

    The driver implements Symbol firmware download.  The rest is handled
    in hermes.c and orinoco.c.

    Utilities for downloading the Symbol firmware are available at
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/orinoco/
