e5945b4f60 [PATCH] s390: ccw device reconnect oops.
Search for a disconnect ccw_device on the ccw bus rather than on the css
bus (was a typo in patch I did for the klist conversion).  A cast to an
embedding ccw_device from an embedded device in a struct subchannel will
lead us to oopses.

dd0fc66fb3 [PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1
- added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

 - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
   the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
   generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
   typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

9123e0d789 [PATCH] s390: qeth driver fixes
From: Peter Tiedemann <ptiedem@de.ibm.com>
From: Frank Pavlic <pavlic@de.ibm.com>
	minor qeth fixes:
	- free old skb in qeth_realloc_headroom after duplicating skb
	- disable IPV6 support for Hipersockets devices
	- call ccw_device_set_offline on every channel regardless
	  of the return value of the prior ccw_device_set_offline calls
	- allocate qdio structures in DMA-area
	- schedule recovery of appropriate card
	  when cable has been inserted again.
	- add missing initialization of card->lock
	- write sequence number in skb->cb for SNA protocol which
	  requires strictly serialized packets.

e5ed639913 [IPV4]: Replace __in_dev_get with __in_dev_get_rcu/rtnl
The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and
introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case.

1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get().
2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu().
3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl().

There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing
race condition.  I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it.

This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and
Paul McKenney.

13e1e1f08c [SCSI] zfcp: add additional fc_host attributes
this patch adds some fc host attributes and removes its equivalents
from the zfcp_adapter structure and zfcp specific sysfs subtree.

Furthermore it removes superfluous calls to fc_remort_port_delete when
an adapter is set offline because rports will be removed by
fc_remove_host anyway.

8a36e4532e [SCSI] zfcp: enhancement of zfcp debug features
Debug features (DBFs) els_dbf, cmd_dbf and abt_dbf were removed and
san_dbf, hba_dbf and scsi_dbf were introduced. The erp_dbf did not
change.
The new traces improve debugging of problems with zfcp, scsi-stack,
multipath and hardware in the SAN. san_dbf traces things like ELS and
CT commands, hba_dbf saves HBA specific information of requests, and
scsi_dbf saves FCP and SCSI specific information of requests. Common
to all new DBFs is that they provide a so called structured view. This
significantly improves readability of the traces.

ae6aa2ea89 [PATCH] s390: machine check handler bugs
The new machine check handler still has a few bugs.

1) The system entry time has to be stored in the machine check handler,

2) the machine check return psw may not be stored at the usual place
   because it might overwrite the return psw of the interrupted context,

3) the return address for the call to s390_handle_mcck in the i/o interrupt
   handler is not correct,

4) the system call cleanup has to take the different save area of the
   machine check handler into account,

5) the machine check handler may not call UPDATE_VTIME before
   CREATE_STACK_FRAME, and

6) the io leave path needs a critical section cleanup to make sure that the
   TIF_MCCK_PENDING bit is really checked before switching back to user space.

This is part of the grand scheme to eliminate the qlen
member of skb_queue_head, and subsequently remove the
'list' member of sk_buff.

Most users of skb_queue_len() want to know if the queue is
empty or not, and that's trivially done with skb_queue_empty()
which doesn't use the skb_queue_head->qlen member and instead
uses the queue list emptyness as the test.

66a464dbc8 [PATCH] s390: debug feature changes
This patch changes the memory allocation method for the s390 debug feature.
Trace buffers had been allocated using the get_free_pages() function before.
Therefore it was not possible to get big memory areas in a running system due
to memory fragmentation.  Now the trace buffers are subdivided into several
subbuffers with pagesize.  Therefore it is now possible to allocate more
memory for the trace buffers and more trace records can be written.

In addition to that, dynamic specification of the size of the trace buffers is
implemented.  It is now possible to change the size of a trace buffer using a
new debugfs file instance.  When writing a number into this file, the trace
buffer size is changed to 'number * pagesize'.

In the past all the traces could be obtained from userspace by accessing files
in the "proc" filesystem.  Now with debugfs we have a new filesystem which
should be used for debugging purposes.  This patch moves the debug feature
from procfs to debugfs.

Since the interface of debug_register() changed, all device drivers, which use
the debug feature had to be adjusted.

77fa22450d [PATCH] s390: improved machine check handling
Improved machine check handling.  Kernel is now able to receive machine checks
while in kernel mode (system call, interrupt and program check handling).
Also register validation is now performed.
