e8222502ee [PATCH] powerpc: Kill _machine and hard-coded platform numbers
This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the
powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism.  With this,
board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a
macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened
device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine.

We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of
_machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants.  This commit also
changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at
_machine.

982c609448 [PATCH] pnp: PNP: adjust pnp_register_driver signature
Remove the assumption that pnp_register_driver() returns the number of devices
claimed.  Returning the count is unreliable because devices may be hot-plugged
in the future.

This changes the convention to "zero for success, or a negative error value,"
which matches pci_register_driver(), acpi_bus_register_driver(), and
platform_driver_register().

5a3a5a98b6 [PATCH] Add flush_kernel_dcache_page() API
We have a problem in a lot of emulated storage in that it takes a page from
get_user_pages() and does something like

kmap_atomic(page)
modify page
kunmap_atomic(page)

However, nothing has flushed the kernel cache view of the page before the
kunmap.  We need a lightweight API to do this, so this new API would
specifically be for flushing the kernel cache view of a user page which the
kernel has modified.  The driver would need to add
flush_kernel_dcache_page(page) before the final kunmap.

03beb07664 [PATCH] Add API for flushing Anon pages
Currently, get_user_pages() returns fully coherent pages to the kernel for
anything other than anonymous pages.  This is a problem for things like
fuse and the SCSI generic ioctl SG_IO which can potentially wish to do DMA
to anonymous pages passed in by users.

The fix is to add a new memory management API: flush_anon_page() which
is used in get_user_pages() to make anonymous pages coherent.

0e6b3e5e97 [PATCH] udf: fix uid/gid options and add uid/gid=ignore and forget options
As Pekka Enberg pointed out, with the if still following the else, you can
still get a null uid written to the disk if you specify a default uid= without
uid=forget.  In other words, if the desktop user is uid=1000 and the mount
option uid=1000 is given ( which is done on ubuntu automatically and probably
other distributions that use hal ), then if any other user besides uid 1000
owns a file then a 0 will be written to the media as the owning uid instead.

67543e508d [PATCH] 9p: fix name consistency problems
There were a number of conflicting naming schemes used in the v9fs project.
The directory was fs/9p, but MAINTAINERS and Documentation referred to
v9fs.  The module name itself was 9p2000, and the file system type was 9P.
This patch attempts to clean that up, changing all references to 9p in
order to match the directory name.  We'll also start using 9p instead of
v9fs as our patch prefix.

There is also a minor consistency cleanup in the options changing the name
option to uname in order to more closely match the Plan 9 options.

7d99b7d634 [PATCH] Validate and sanitze itimer timeval from userspace
According to the specification the timevals must be validated and an
errorcode -EINVAL returned in case the timevals are not in canonical form.
This check was never done in Linux.

The pre 2.6.16 code converted invalid timevals silently.  Negative timeouts
were converted by the timeval_to_jiffies conversion to the maximum timeout.

hrtimers and the ktime_t operations expect timevals in canonical form.
Otherwise random results might happen on 32 bits machines due to the
optimized ktime_add/sub operations.  Negative timeouts are treated as
already expired.  This might break applications which work on pre 2.6.16.

To prevent random behaviour and API breakage the timevals are checked and
invalid timevals sanitized in a simliar way as the pre 2.6.16 code did.

Invalid timevals are reported with a per boot limited number of kernel
messages so applications which use this misfeature can be corrected.

After a grace period of one year the sanitizing should be replaced by a
correct validation check.  This is also documented in
Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt

The validation and sanitizing is done inside do_setitimer so all callers
(sys_setitimer, compat_sys_setitimer, osf_setitimer) are catched.

This patch provides the implementation and cpuset interface for an alternative
memory allocation policy that can be applied to certain kinds of memory
allocations, such as the page cache (file system buffers) and some slab caches
(such as inode caches).

The policy is called "memory spreading." If enabled, it spreads out these
kinds of memory allocations over all the nodes allowed to a task, instead of
preferring to place them on the node where the task is executing.

All other kinds of allocations, including anonymous pages for a tasks stack
and data regions, are not affected by this policy choice, and continue to be
allocated preferring the node local to execution, as modified by the NUMA
mempolicy.

There are two boolean flag files per cpuset that control where the kernel
allocates pages for the file system buffers and related in kernel data
structures.  They are called 'memory_spread_page' and 'memory_spread_slab'.

If the per-cpuset boolean flag file 'memory_spread_page' is set, then the
kernel will spread the file system buffers (page cache) evenly over all the
nodes that the faulting task is allowed to use, instead of preferring to put
those pages on the node where the task is running.

If the per-cpuset boolean flag file 'memory_spread_slab' is set, then the
kernel will spread some file system related slab caches, such as for inodes
and dentries evenly over all the nodes that the faulting task is allowed to
use, instead of preferring to put those pages on the node where the task is
running.

The implementation is simple.  Setting the cpuset flags 'memory_spread_page'
or 'memory_spread_cache' turns on the per-process flags PF_SPREAD_PAGE or
PF_SPREAD_SLAB, respectively, for each task that is in the cpuset or
subsequently joins that cpuset.  In subsequent patches, the page allocation
calls for the affected page cache and slab caches are modified to perform an
inline check for these flags, and if set, a call to a new routine
cpuset_mem_spread_node() returns the node to prefer for the allocation.

The cpuset_mem_spread_node() routine is also simple.  It uses the value of a
per-task rotor cpuset_mem_spread_rotor to select the next node in the current
tasks mems_allowed to prefer for the allocation.

This policy can provide substantial improvements for jobs that need to place
thread local data on the corresponding node, but that need to access large
file system data sets that need to be spread across the several nodes in the
jobs cpuset in order to fit.  Without this patch, especially for jobs that
might have one thread reading in the data set, the memory allocation across
the nodes in the jobs cpuset can become very uneven.

A couple of Copyright year ranges are updated as well.  And a couple of email
addresses that can be found in the MAINTAINERS file are removed.

dd287796d6 [PATCH] pause_on_oops command line option
Attempt to fix the problem wherein people's oops reports scroll off the screen
due to repeated oopsing or to oopses on other CPUs.

If this happens the user can reboot with the `pause_on_oops=<seconds>' option.
It will allow the first oopsing CPU to print an oops record just a single
time.  Second oopsing attempts, or oopses on other CPUs will cause those CPUs
to enter a tight loop until the specified number of seconds have elapsed.

The patch implements the infrastructure generically in the expectation that
architectures other than x86 will find it useful.

6e1819d615 [PATCH] swsusp: userland interface
This patch introduces a user space interface for swsusp.

The interface is based on a special character device, called the snapshot
device, that allows user space processes to perform suspend and resume-related
operations with the help of some ioctls and the read()/write() functions.
 Additionally it allows these processes to allocate free swap pages from a
selected swap partition, called the resume partition, so that they know which
sectors of the resume partition are available to them.

The interface uses the same low-level system memory snapshot-handling
functions that are used by the built-it swap-writing/reading code of swsusp.

The interface documentation is included in the patch.

The patch assumes that the major and minor numbers of the snapshot device will
be 10 (ie.  misc device) and 231, the registration of which has already been
requested.

This merges the DVB tree, but fixes up the history that had gotten
screwed up by a broken commit.

The history is fixed up by re-doing the commit properly (taking the
resolve from the final result of the original), and then cherry-picking

ba3a5a81f7 V4L/DVB (3504): Medion 7134: Autodetect second bridge chip
The device, Medion 7134, has two saa7134 chips on it, but only one of them
is functional in the current saa7134 driver.
This patch adds autodetection for the second, unsupported saa7134 chip,
as SAA7134_BOARD_MD7134_BRIDGE_2, and displays a message to the user
(in dmesg) indicating that the second chip isn't yet functional.
This is useful for users, since two instances of the saa7134 driver
will spawn. This patch will prevent confusion by warning the user that
only one of the chips on the board are functional.
There are other versions of the SAA7134_BOARD_MD7134 with only a single
saa7134 bridge/decoder -- those devices will not be affected by this patch.
Only devices containing the second chip will display the warning.

- Added support for AVerMedia A169 Dual Analog tuner card
  (dual saa7134 decoders - only 1 working right now)
- Added autodetection for both parts of the card.
  It shows up like 2 cards, B1 and B
- Enabled tuner B1, SVIDEO on B1 and composite1 through SVIDEO,
  FIXME: B is more or less dead at this point and I suspect the
  FM-radio is on the B part of the board

15d99e02ba [TCP]: sysctl to allow TCP window > 32767 sans wscale
Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit
window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated.  Some
ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of
the TCP header and would get confused.

Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default
now.

There is a sysctl added so that we can still interact with such old
stacks
