b113a3f7e8 drivers/edac: add mips and ppc visibility
1) Remove an old CVS ID string

2) change EDAC from a tristate option to a simple bool option

3) In addition to the X86 arch, PPC and MIPS also have drivers in the
submission queue.  This patch turns on the EDAC flag for those archs.  Each
driver will have its respective 'depends on ARCH' set.

052dfb45cc drivers/edac: cleanup spaces-gotos after Lindent messup
This patch fixes some remnant spaces inserted by the use of Lindent.
Seems Lindent adds some spaces when it shoulded. These have been fixed.
In addition, goto targets have issues, these have been fixed
in this patch.

c4192705fe drivers/edac: add dev_name getter function
Move dev_name() macro to a more generic interface since it's not possible
to determine whether a device is pci, platform, or of_device easily.

Now each low level driver sets the name into the control structure, and
the EDAC core references the control structure for the information.

Better abstraction.

c0d1217202 drivers/edac: add new nmi rescan
Provides a way for NMI reported errors on x86 to notify the EDAC
subsystem pending ECC errors by writing to a software state variable.

Here's the reworked patch. I added an EDAC stub to the kernel so we can
have variables that are in the kernel even if EDAC is a module. I also
implemented the idea of using the chip driver to select error detection
mode via module parameter and eliminate the kernel compile option.
Please review/test. Thx!

Also, I only made changes to some of the chipset drivers since I am
unfamiliar with the other ones. We can add similar changes as we go.

e27e3dac65 drivers/edac: add edac_device class
This patch adds the new 'class' of object to be managed, named: 'edac_device'.

As a peer of the 'edac_mc' class of object, it provides a non-memory centric
view of an ERROR DETECTING device in hardware. It provides a sysfs interface
and an abstraction for varioius EDAC type devices.

Multiple 'instances' within the class are possible, with each 'instance'
able to have multiple 'blocks', and each 'block' having 'attributes'.

At the 'block' level there are the 'ce_count' and 'ue_count' fields
which the device driver can update and/or call edac_device_handle_XX()
functions. At each higher level are additional 'total' count fields,
which are a summation of counts below that level.

This 'edac_device' has been used to capture and present ECC errors
which are found in a a L1 and L2 system on a per CORE/CPU basis.

7c9281d76c drivers/edac: split out functions to unique files
This is a large patch to refactor the original EDAC module in the kernel
and to break it up into better file granularity, such that each source
file contains a given subsystem of the EDAC CORE.

Originally, the EDAC 'core' was contained in one source file: edac_mc.c
with it corresponding edac_mc.h file.

Now, there are the following files:

edac_module.c	The main module init/exit function and other overhead
edac_mc.c	Code handling the edac_mc class of object
edac_mc_sysfs.c	Code handling for sysfs presentation
edac_pci_sysfs.c  Code handling for PCI sysfs presentation
edac_core.h	CORE .h include file for 'edac_mc' and 'edac_device' drivers
edac_module.h	Internal CORE .h include file

This forms a foundation upon which a later patch can create the 'edac_device'
class of object code in a new file 'edac_device.c'.

07ad157f6e lguest: the guest code
lguest is a simple hypervisor for Linux on Linux.  Unlike kvm it doesn't need
VT/SVM hardware.  Unlike Xen it's simply "modprobe and go".  Unlike both, it's
5000 lines and self-contained.

Performance is ok, but not great (-30% on kernel compile).  But given its
hackability, I expect this to improve, along with the paravirt_ops code which
it supplies a complete example for.  There's also a 64-bit version being
worked on and other craziness.

But most of all, lguest is awesome fun!  Too much of the kernel is a big ball
of hair.  lguest is simple enough to dive into and hack, plus has some warts
which scream "fork me!".

This patch:

This is the code and headers required to make an i386 kernel an lguest guest.

5992b6dac0 lguest: export symbols for lguest as a module
lguest does some fairly lowlevel things to support a host, which
normal modules don't need:

math_state_restore:
	When the guest triggers a Device Not Available fault, we need
	to be able to restore the FPU

__put_task_struct:
	We need to hold a reference to another task for inter-guest
	I/O, and put_task_struct() is an inline function which calls
	__put_task_struct.

access_process_vm:
	We need to access another task for inter-guest I/O.

map_vm_area & __get_vm_area:
	We need to map the switcher shim (ie. monitor) at 0xFFC01000.

57deb52622 RTC: add periodic irq support to rtc-cmos
Adds support for periodic irq enabling in rtc-cmos.  This could be used by
the ALSA driver and is already being tested with the zaptel ztdummy module.

Share a little common code, reverse the arguments for consistency, drop the
unnecessary "inline", and lowercase the name.
