e82c354bb2 ACPI: fix section mis-match build warning
Dunno why this pops out in only in the allmodconfig build.
Though the warning is accurate, all the callers of the flagged
non __init function are __init, this is not a functional change.

We have some new larger ia64 systems in HP that trip over the

8018c27b26 [PATCH] kvm: fix GFP_KERNEL allocation in atomic section in kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vcpu()
fix an GFP_KERNEL allocation in atomic section: kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vcpu()
called kvm_mmu_init(), which calls alloc_pages(), while holding the vcpu.

The fix is to set up the MMU state in two phases: kvm_mmu_create() and
kvm_mmu_setup().

(NOTE: free_vcpus does an kvm_mmu_destroy() call so there's no need for any
extra teardown branch on allocation/init failure here.)

09db28b8a3 [PATCH] KVM: Initialize kvm_arch_ops on unload
The latest version of kvm doesn't initialize kvm_arch_ops in kvm_init(), which
causes an error with the following sequence.

1. Load the supported arch's module.
2. Load the unsupported arch's module.$B!!(B(loading error)
3. Unload the unsupported arch's module.

You'll get the following error message after step 3.  "BUG: unable to handle
to handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx"

The problem here is that the unsupported arch's module overwrites kvm_arch_ops
of the supported arch's module at step 2.

This patch initializes kvm_arch_ops upon loading architecture specific kvm
module, and prevents overwriting kvm_arch_ops when kvm_arch_ops is already set
correctly.

The fallback to PIO mode in the hwif->dma_check() handler doesn't work in
the Intel PIIX and SMsC SLC90E66 IDE drivers because:

- config_drive_for_dma() calls the hwif->speedproc() handler with a wrong
  mode number (unbiased by XFER_PIO_0) in case of the PIO fallback;

- hwif->tuneproc() handler doesn't really set the drive's own speed (this
  is not fixed as yet).

4b1badf5d9 [PATCH] SPI: define null tx_buf to mean "shift out zeroes"
Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what
it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are
(from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads.

Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from
"undefined" to "will shift zeroes".  This lets protocol drivers (like the
ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior.  It's what most controller drivers
in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver
wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing,
and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to
define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels.

This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and
updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.

bcb4ddb46a [PATCH] MM: SLOB is broken by recent cleanup of slab.h
Recent cleanup of slab.h broke SLOB allocator: the routine kmem_cache_init
has now the __init attribute for both slab.c and slob.c.  This routine
cannot be removed after init in the case of slob.c -- it serves as a timer
callback.

Provide a separate timer callback routine, call it once from kmem_cache_init,
keep the __init attribute on the latter.

131612dfe7 [PATCH] ramfs breaks without CONFIG_BLOCK
ramfs doesn't provide the .set_dirty_page a_op, and when the BLOCK layer is
not configured in, 'set_page_dirty' makes a call via a NULL pointer.

9414232fa0 [PATCH] sched: fix cond_resched_softirq() offset
Remove the __resched_legal() check: it is conceptually broken.  The biggest
problem it had is that it can mask buggy cond_resched() calls.  A
cond_resched() call is only legal if we are not in an atomic context, with
two narrow exceptions:

 - if the system is booting
 - a reacquire_kernel_lock() down() done while PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set

But __resched_legal() hid this and just silently returned whenever
these primitives were called from invalid contexts. (Same goes for
cond_resched_locked() and cond_resched_softirq()).

Furthermore, the __legal_resched(0) call was buggy in that it caused
unnecessarily long softirq latencies via cond_resched_softirq().  (which is
only called from softirq-off sections, hence the code did nothing.)

The fix is to resurrect the efficiency of the might_sleep checks and to
only allow the narrow exceptions.

d449db98d5 [PATCH] fix mrproper incompleteness
include/linux/utsrelease.h and include/linux/version.h aren't removed any
more by mrproper in kernel 2.6.20-rc2.  The patch below fixes this.

The definition of MRPROPER_FILES looks weird: generated-headers looks like
a misspelling of generated_headers, but that one is a Makefile target, not
a variable or a file, so I don't see how including it in MRPROPER_FILES
could have any effect.
