debf47779e [SCSI] Add SUN Universal Xport to no attach blacklist
I was using a Sun ST2510 device (iSCSI) and a special "block device"
appeared which is used by SUN Common Array Manager in-band management.

However it also appeared as a block device and caused some IO error:

	("net: ppp_generic - use idr technique instead of cardmaps")

	ab5024ab23
	("net: ppp_generic - use DEFINE_IDR for static initialization")

introduced usage of IDR functionality but broke userspace side.

Before this commits it was possible to allocate new ppp interface with
specified number. Now it fails with EINVAL.  Fix it by trying to
allocate interface with specified unit number and return EEXIST if
fail which allow pppd to ask us to allocate new unit number.

And fix messages on memory allocation fails - add details that it's
PPP module who is complaining.

The bug introduced by commit 8c7396aebb
("gianfar: Merge Tx and Rx interrupt for scheduling clean up ring").

The commit merged TX and RX interrupt code into a single routine that
schedules NAPI, but no locks were introduced. This causes irq races, so
when irqs are enabled and netif_rx_schedule_prep() returns 0, nobody
disable the interrupts again. This leads to interrupt storm and finally
to the lockup.

cd7fcbf1cb netfilter 07/09: simplify nf_conntrack_alloc() error handling
nf_conntrack_alloc cannot return NULL, so there is no need to check for
NULL before using the value.  I have also removed the initialization of ct
to NULL in nf_conntrack_alloc, since the value is never used, and since
perhaps it might lead one to think that return ct at the end might return
NULL.

47e0e1ca13 netfilter 03/09: bridge: Disable PPPOE/VLAN processing by default
The PPPOE/VLAN processing code in the bridge netfilter is broken
by design.  The VLAN tag and the PPPOE session ID are an integral
part of the packet flow information, yet they're completely
ignored by the bridge netfilter.  This is potentially a security
hole as it treats all VLANs and PPPOE sessions as the same.

What's more, it's actually broken for PPPOE as the bridge netfilter
tries to trim the packets to the IP length without adjusting the
PPPOE header (and adjusting the PPPOE header isn't much better
since the PPPOE peer may require the padding to be present).

Therefore we should disable this by default.

It does mean that people relying on this feature may lose networking
depending on how their bridge netfilter rules are configured.
However, IMHO the problems this code causes are serious enough to
warrant this.

c478b58135 powerpc/powermac: Fix occasional SMP boot failure
The PowerMac kernel occasionally fails to bring up the secondary CPUs on
SMP, the trigger factor seem to be fairly random and related to location
of code and data.

This appears to be due to the initial loading of the TOC value by the
secondary processor which now happens before we clear HID4:RM_CI (Real
Mode Cache Invalidate). This bit should really be cleared before we do
any load or store other than fetching code.

This fix works based on the assumption that all SMP 64-bit PowerMacs use
variants of the 970, which fortunately is true, by explicitely clearing
that bit, adding an slbia for good measure as RM_CI mode is known to
create bogus ERAT entries.

I also removed some spurrious debug output that was left enabled by
mistake while at it.

da9dc13289 hvc_console: Do not set low_latency when using interrupts
hvc_console is setting low_latency unconditionally, but some clients are
interrupt driven and will call hvc_poll from irq context.  This will cause
tty_flip_buffer_push to be called from irq context, and it very clearly
states it must not be called from IRQ when low_latency is specified.

Looking back through history:
v2.6.16-rc1 via 33f0f88f1c
    [PATCH] TTY layer buffering revamp

added this new api.

v2.6.16-rc3 via 8977d929e4
    [PATCH] tty buffering stall fix

claims to fix a stall discovered with hvc_console

v2.6.16-rc5 via fb5c594c2a
   [PATCH] Fix race condition in hvc console.

said set this flag to avoid a stall problem, and was merged through
the powerpc arch tree.

Without searching for email discussions, it would appear to be an
overlapping "fix", but one that did not consider all users.

9fef3d2d15 hvc_console: Change an mb() to smp_mb() and add some comments
I remember some history on this barrier.  There was a race between
open via /dev/console and the tty being fully setup.  Its also why
there is a temporary variable and the global is assigned at the end
of the function.

fe333321e2 powerpc: Change u64/s64 to a long long integer type
Convert arch/powerpc/ over to long long based u64:

 -#ifdef __powerpc64__
 -# include <asm-generic/int-l64.h>
 -#else
 -# include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>
 -#endif
 +#include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>

This will avoid reoccuring spurious warnings in core kernel code that
comes when people test on their own hardware. (i.e. x86 in ~98% of the
cases) This is what x86 uses and it generally helps keep 64-bit code
32-bit clean too.

[Adjusted to not impact user mode (from paulus) - sfr]

66c721e184 powerpc/kexec: Check crash_base for relocatable kernel
Enforce that the crash kernel region never overlaps the current kernel,
as it will be written directly on kexec load.

Also, default to the previous KDUMP_KERNELBASE if the start is 0.

Other architectures (x86, ia64) state that specifying the start address
0 (or omitting it) will result in the kernel allocating it.  Before the
relocatable patch in 2.6.28, powerpc would adjust any other start value
to the hardcoded KDUMP_KERNELBASE of 32M.

e16459c6b7 powerpc: Make dummy section a valid note header
We are declaring the dummy section (used to work around a binutils
bug) as PT_NOTE, but we don't have enough bytes for it to be a valid
note header, and kexec userspace complains:

Warning: Elf Note name is not null terminated
Warning: append= option is not passed. Using the first kernel root partition
Warning: Elf Note name is not null terminated

Instead of using the arbitray value 0xf177 (aka "fill"), declare a
no-name no-description note of type 0.
