3f309db33e [PATCH] sk98lin: fix workaround for yukon-lite chipset (> rev 7)
Yukon-Lite chipset needs workaround for revision 7 (or later).
Without this patch, chip gets stuck in low power mode and never
boots. Newer SysKonnect vendor code already had same patch.

Related bug in skge is http://bugs.gentoo.org/87822

Chris, please add for 2.6.12.2

faa725332f [PATCH] SCSI_SATA has to be a tristate
SCSI=m must disallow static drivers.

The problem is that all the SATA drivers depend on SCSI_SATA.

With SCSI=m and SCSI_SATA=y this allows the static enabling of the SATA
drivers with unwanted effects, e.g.:
- SCSI=m, SCSI_SATA=y, SCSI_ATA_ADMA=y
  -> SCSI_ATA_ADMA is built statically but scsi/built-in.o is not linked
     into the kernel
- SCSI=m, SCSI_SATA=y, SCSI_ATA_ADMA=y, SCSI_SATA_AHCI=m
  -> SCSI_ATA_ADMA and libata are built statically but
     scsi/built-in.o is not linked into the kernel,
     SCSI_SATA_AHCI is built modular (unresolved symbols due to missing
                                      libata)

f0098f7863 [NET] Fix too aggressive backoff in dst garbage collection
The bug is evident when it is seen once. dst gc timer was backed off,
when gc queue is not empty. But this means that timer quickly backs off,
if at least one destination remains in use. Normally, the bug is invisible,
because adding new dst entry to queue cancels the backoff. But it shots
deadly with destination cache overflow when new destinations are not released
for long time f.e. after an interface goes down.

The fix is to cancel backoff when something was released.

6a1caa21d6 [PATCH] x86_64: avoid wasting IRQs patch update
The patch adds boundary check for the MAX_GSI_NUM.  Same as the update for
i386, the patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI IRQ.  The patch corrects
the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is avoided.  The
VIA chipset uses 4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and
therefore cannot handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices.  The patch
corrects this problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

5ce17b18e1 [PATCH] ppc32: fix 44x early serial debug for configurations with more than 512M of RAM
Fix 44x early serial debugging for big RAM configurations (more than 512M).
 We cannot use default OpenBIOS virtual mapping, because it interferes with
pinned TLB entry.

While we are at it, move early UART mapping to TLB slot 0, so it can
survive longer during boot process (slot 1 is used by the first ioremap
call, effectively killing UART mapping if it occupies this slot).  Also,
change UART TLB entry size to 4K (256M is too much for a bunch of registers
:).  Squash some warnings on the way.

Tested on Ebony and Ocotea with 1G of RAM.

e310fd4325 [PATCH] Fix NUMA node sizing in nr_free_zone_pages
We are iterating over all nodes in nr_free_zone_pages().  Because the
fallback zonelists contain all nodes in the system, and we walk all the

caused us to make a size estimate of 32GB for an 8GB AMD64 box, which makes
all the dirty ratio calculations, etc incorrect.

There's still a further bug to fix from e820 holes causing overestimation
as well, but this fix is separate, and good as is, and fixes one class of
problems.  Problem found by Badari, and tested by Ram Pai - thanks!

b0825488a6 [PATCH] agp: restore APBASE after setting APSIZE
When leaving S3 state, the AGP bridge may not have all PCI configuration
registers set in the same way as they were at boot.  This should be fixed
by pci_restore_state - however, the APBASE register cannot be set to
conflict with the APSIZE register.  If APSIZE is larger than it was before
suspend, pci_restore_state will not restore APBASE correctly.  The attached
patch adds an extra item to the agp_bridge_data structure and uses it to
store the value of APBASE.  On resume, this is then written after APSIZE
has been set.  This patch only touches the path used for Intel chipsets
without integrated graphics, and may need to be extended to work with the
others.

Without this patch, I get the symptoms described in bug 4921 - APBASE ends
up overlapping various PCI devices, and as a result they fail to work after
resume.

e4c5c82024 [PATCH] fbdev: Replace memcpy with for-loop when preparing bitmap
Do not use memcpy in fb_pad_aligned_buffer.  It is suboptimal because only
a few bytes are moved at a time.  Replace with a for-loop.

e1afc3f522 [PATCH] x86: avoid wasting IRQs patch update
The patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI interrupt entry, which gets
re-used, and the IRQ is assigned to another unrelated device.  The patch
corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is
avoided.  Second issue came up with VIA chipset, the problem was caused by
original patch assigning IRQs starting 16 and up.  The VIA chipset uses
4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot
handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices.  The patch corrects this
problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

8062594209 [PATCH] vesafb: Fix mtrr bugs
>> vesafb: mode is 800x600x16, linelength=1600, pages=16
>> vesafb: scrolling: redraw
>> vesafb: Truecolor: size=0:5:6:5, shift=0:11:5:0
>> mtrr: type mismatch for fc000000,1000000 old: write-back new: write-
>> combining

Range is already set to write-back, vesafb attempts to add a write-combining
mtrr (default for vesafb).

>> mtrr: size and base must be multiples of 4 kiB

This is a bug, vesafb attempts to add a size < PAGE_SIZE triggering
the messages below.

To eliminate the warning messages, you can add the option mtrr:2 to add a
write-back mtrr for vesafb.  Or just use nomtrr option.

1. Fix algorithm for finding the best power of 2 size with mtrr_add().

2. Add option to choose the mtrr type by extending the mtrr boot option:

   mtrr:n where n

        0 = no mtrr (equivalent to using the nomtrr option)
        1 = uncachable
        2 = write back
        3 = write combining (default)
        4 = write through
