0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

9224a867c4 HPET: fix ACPI memory range length handling
ACPI address space descriptors contain _MIN, _MAX, and _LEN.  _MIN and _MAX
are the bounds within which the region can be moved (this is clarified in
Table 6-38 of the ACPI 3.0 spec).  We should use _LEN to determine the size
of the region, not _MAX - _MIN + 1.

be5efffb76 [PATCH] HPET: handle multiple ACPI EXTENDED_IRQ resources
When the _CRS for a single HPET contains multiple EXTENDED_IRQ resources,
we overwrote hdp->hd_nirqs every time we found one.

So the driver worked when all the IRQs were described in a single
EXTENDED_IRQ resource, but failed when multiple resources were used.
(Strictly speaking, I think the latter is actually more correct, but both
styles have been used.)

Someday we should remove all the ACPI stuff from hpet.c and use PNP driver
registration instead.  But currently PNP_MAX_IRQ is 2, and HPETs often have
more IRQs.  Hint, hint, Adam :-)

50eca3eb89 [ACPI] ACPICA 20050930
Completed a major overhaul of the Resource Manager code -
specifically, optimizations in the area of the AML/internal
resource conversion code. The code has been optimized to
simplify and eliminate duplicated code, CPU stack use has
been decreased by optimizing function parameters and local
variables, and naming conventions across the manager have
been standardized for clarity and ease of maintenance (this
includes function, parameter, variable, and struct/typedef
names.)

All Resource Manager dispatch and information tables have
been moved to a single location for clarity and ease of
maintenance. One new file was created, named "rsinfo.c".

The ACPI return macros (return_ACPI_STATUS, etc.) have
been modified to guarantee that the argument is
not evaluated twice, making them less prone to macro
side-effects. However, since there exists the possibility
of additional stack use if a particular compiler cannot
optimize them (such as in the debug generation case),
the original macros are optionally available.  Note that
some invocations of the return_VALUE macro may now cause
size mismatch warnings; the return_UINT8 and return_UINT32
macros are provided to eliminate these. (From Randy Dunlap)

Implemented a new mechanism to enable debug tracing for
individual control methods. A new external interface,
acpi_debug_trace(), is provided to enable this mechanism. The
intent is to allow the host OS to easily enable and disable
tracing for problematic control methods. This interface
can be easily exposed to a user or debugger interface if
desired. See the file psxface.c for details.

acpi_ut_callocate() will now return a valid pointer if a
length of zero is specified - a length of one is used
and a warning is issued. This matches the behavior of
acpi_ut_allocate().

The driver previously acknowledged interrupts for both edge and level
interrupts, but didn't actually allow a shared interrupt in the latter case.

We use a new per-timer flag to save whether the timer's interrupt might be
shared, and use it to do the processing required for level interrupts only if
necessary.

ba3f213f8a [PATCH] HPET: make frequency calculations 32 bit safe
On 32-bit architectures, the multiplication in the argument for
hpet_time_div() often overflows.  In the typical case of a 14.32 MHz timer,
this happens when the desired frequency exceeds 61 Hz.

To avoid this multiplication, we can precompute and store the hardware
timer frequency, instead of the period, in the device structure, which
leaves us with a simple division when computing the number of timer ticks.

As a side effect, this also removes a theoretical bug where the timer
interpolator's frequency would be computed as a 32-bit value even if the
HPET frequency is greater than 2^32 Hz (the HPET spec allows up to 10 GHz).

before my changes __pa() was being executed on an ioremap()ed virtual
