15f9850d3c [TG3]: Set minimal hw interrupt mitigation.
Even though we do software interrupt mitigation
via NAPI, it still helps to have some minimal
hw assisted mitigation.

This helps, particularly, on systems where register
I/O overhead is much greater than the CPU horsepower.

For example, it helps on NUMA systems.  In such cases
the PIO overhead to disable interrupts for NAPI accounts
for the majority of the packet processing cost.  The
CPU is fast enough such that only a single packet is
processed by each NAPI poll call.

Thanks to Michael Chan for reviewing this patch.

fac9b83ea7 [TG3]: Add tagged status support.
When supported, use the TAGGED interrupt processing support
the chip provides.  In this mode, instead of a "on/off" binary
semaphore, an incrementing tag scheme is used to ACK interrupts.

All MSI supporting chips support TAGGED mode, so the tg3_msi()
interrupt handler uses it unconditionally.  This invariant is
verified when MSI support is tested.

Since we can invoke tg3_poll() multiple times per interrupt under
high packet load, we fetch a new copy of the tag value in the
status block right before we actually do the work.

Also, because the tagged status tells the chip exactly which
work we have processed, we can make two optimizations:

1) tg3_restart_ints() need not check tg3_has_work()
2) the tg3_timer() need not poke the chip 10 times per
   second to keep from losing interrupt events

Based upon valuable feedback from Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com>

301216244b [PATCH] Avoid console spam with ext3 aborted journal.
Avoid console spam with ext3 aborted journal.

ext3 usually reports error conditions that it detects in its environment.
But when its journal gets aborted due to such errors, it can sometimes
continue to report that condition forever, spamming the console to such
an extent that the initial first cause of the journal abort can be lost.

When the journal aborts, we put the filesystem into readonly mode.  Most
subsequent filesystem operations will get rejected immediately by checks
for MS_RDONLY either in the filesystem or in the VFS.  But some paths do
not have such checks --- for example, if we continue to write to a file
handle that was opened before the fs went readonly.  (We only check for
the ROFS condition when the file is first opened.)  In these cases, we
can continue to generate log errors similar to

EXT3-fs error (device $DEV) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted

for each subsequent write.

There is really no point in generating these errors after the initial
error has been fully reported.  Specifically, if we're starting a
completely new filesystem operation, and the filesystem is *already*
readonly (ie. the ext3 layer has already detected and handled the
underlying jbd abort), and we see an EROFS error, then there is simply
no point in reporting it again.

e72022e13d [PATCH] Fix filp being passed through raw ioctl handler
Don't pass meaningless file handles to block device ioctls.

The recent raw IO ioctl-passthrough fix started passing the raw file
handle into the block device ioctl handler.  That's unlikely to be
useful, as the file handle is actually open on a character-mode raw
device, not a block device, so dereferencing it is not going to yield
useful results to a block device ioctl handler.

Previously we just passed NULL; also not a value that can usefully
be dereferenced, but at least if it does happen, we'll oops instead of
silently pretending that the file is a block device, so NULL is the more
defensive option here.  This patch reverts to that behaviour.

Noticed by Al Viro.

0b405a0f7e [PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_state
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that:

 - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive;
 - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing;
 - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type;
 - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts;
 - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace.

This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well
as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

82428b62aa [PATCH] Driver Core: pm diagnostics update, check for errors
This patch includes various tweaks in the messaging that appears during
system pm state transitions:

  * Warn about certain illegal calls in the device tree, like resuming
    child before parent or suspending parent before child.  This could
    happen easily enough through sysfs, or in some cases when drivers
    use device_pm_set_parent().

  * Be more consistent about dev_dbg() tracing ... do it for resume() and
    shutdown() too, and never if the driver doesn't have that method.

  * Say which type of system sleep state is being entered.

Except for the warnings, these only affect debug messaging.

43b7d7cfb1 [PATCH] PCI Hotplug: CPCI update
[PATCH] CPCI: update

I have finally done some work to update the CompactPCI hotplug driver to
fix some of the outstanding issues in 2.6:
- Added adapter and latch status ops so that those files will get created
  by the current PCI hotplug core.  This used to not be required, but
  seems to be now after some of the sysfs rework in the core.
- Replaced slot list spinlock with a r/w semaphore to avoid any potential
  issues with sleeping.  This quiets all of the runtime warnings.
- Reworked interrupt driven hot extraction handling to remove need for a
  polling operator for ENUM# status.  There are a lot of boards that only
  have an interrupt driven by ENUM#, so this lowers the bar to entry.
- Replaced pci_visit_dev usage with better use of the PCI core functions.
  The new code is functionally equivalent to the previous code, but the
  use of pci_enable_device on insert needs to be investigated further, as
  I need to do some more testing to see if it is still necessary.
