63af2a5c59 [PATCH] sata_mv: three bug fixes
(1) A DMA transfer size of 0x10000 was not being written
as 0x0000 in the PRDs.  Fixed.

(1) The DEV_IRQ interrupt cause bit happens spuriously
during EDMA operation, and was not being ignored by the driver.
This led to various "drive busy" errors being reported,
with associated unpredictable behaviour.  Fixed.

(2) If a SATA or PCI interrupt was received with no outstanding
command, the interrupt handler still attempted to invoke
ata_qc_complete(), triggering assert()/BUG_ON() behaviour
elsewhere in libata.  Fixed.

The driver still has issues with confusion after error-recovery,
but should now  be reliable in the absence of drive errors.
I will be looking more into the error-handling bugs next.

4a29cc2e50 [TG3]: 40-bit DMA workaround part 2
The 40-bit DMA workaround recently implemented for 5714, 5715, and
5780 needs to be expanded because there may be other tg3 devices
behind the EPB Express to PCIX bridge in the 5780 class device.

For example, some 4-port card or mother board designs have 5704 behind
the 5714.

All devices behind the EPB require the 40-bit DMA workaround.

Thanks to Chris Elmquist again for reporting the problem and testing
the patch.

c7c694d196 [AX.25]: Fix potencial memory hole.
If the AX.25 dialect chosen by the sysadmin is set to DAMA master / 3
(or DAMA slave / 2, if CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE=n) ax25_kick() will fall
through the switch statement without calling ax25_send_iframe() or any
other function that would eventually free skbn thus leaking the packet.

Fix by restricting the sysctl inferface to allow only actually supported
AX.25 dialects.

The system administration mistake needed for this to happen is rather
unlikely, so this is an uncritical hole.

VIDEO_CX88_ALSA should not be between VIDEO_CX88_DVB and
VIDEO_CX88_DVB_ALL_FRONTENDS

When cx88-alsa was added to cx88/Kconfig, it was added in between
VIDEO_CX88_DVB and VIDEO_CX88_DVB_ALL_FRONTENDS.  This caused
undesireable effects to the appearance of the menu options in
menuconfig.

This fix reorders cx88-alsa and cx88-dvb in Kconfig, to match saa7134,
and restore the correct menuconfig appearance.

a904f74785 [MIPS] Sibyte: Fix race in sb1250_gettimeoffset().
From Dave Johnson <djohnson+linuxmips@sw.starentnetworks.com>:
    
sb1250_gettimeoffset() simply reads the current cpu 0 timer remaining
value, however once this counter reaches 0 and the interrupt is raised,
it immediately resets and begins to count down again.
    
If sb1250_gettimeoffset() is called on cpu 1 via do_gettimeofday() after
the timer has reset but prior to cpu 0 processing the interrupt and
taking write_seqlock() in timer_interrupt() it will return a full value
(or close to it) causing time to jump backwards 1ms. Once cpu 0 handles
the interrupt and timer_interrupt() gets far enough along it will jump
forward 1ms.
    
Fix this problem by implementing mips_hpt_*() on sb1250 using a spare
timer unrelated to the existing periodic interrupt timers. It runs at
1Mhz with a full 23bit counter.  This eliminated the custom
do_gettimeoffset() for sb1250 and allowed use of the generic
fixed_rate_gettimeoffset() using mips_hpt_*() and timerhi/timerlo.

6f5e6b9e69 [PATCH] fix free swap cache latency
Lee Revell reported 28ms latency when process with lots of swapped memory
exits.

2.6.15 introduced a latency regression when unmapping: in accounting the
zap_work latency breaker, pte_none counted 1, pte_present PAGE_SIZE, but a
swap entry counted nothing at all.  We think of pages present as the slow
case, but Lee's trace shows that free_swap_and_cache's radix tree lookup
can make a lot of work - and we could have been doing it many thousands of
times without a latency break.

Move the zap_work update up to account swap entries like pages present.
This does account non-linear pte_file entries, and unmap_mapping_range
skipping over swap entries, by the same amount even though they're quick:
but neither of those cases deserves complicating the code (and they're
treated no worse than they were in 2.6.14).

8ba32fde2c [PATCH] dm stripe: Fix bounds
The dm-stripe target currently does not enforce that the size of a stripe
device be a multiple of the chunk-size.  Under certain conditions, this can
lead to I/O requests going off the end of an underlying device.  This
test-case shows one example.

echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 0" | dmsetup create linear0
echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 100" | dmsetup create linear1
echo "0 200 striped 2 32 /dev/mapper/linear0 0 /dev/mapper/linear1 0" | \
   dmsetup create stripe0
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/stripe0 bs=1k

This will produce the output:
dd: writing '/dev/mapper/stripe0': Input/output error
97+0 records in
96+0 records out

And in the kernel log will be:
attempt to access beyond end of device
dm-0: rw=0, want=104, limit=100

The patch will check that the table size is a multiple of the stripe
chunk-size when the table is created, which will prevent the above striped
device from being created.

This should not affect tools like LVM or EVMS, since in all the cases I can
think of, striped devices are always created with the sizes being a
multiple of the chunk-size.

The size of a stripe device must be a multiple of its chunk-size.

(akpm: that typecast is quite gratuitous)

c6cb3b5f36 [PATCH] powerpc: enable NAP only on cpus who support it to avoid memory corruption
This patch fixes incorrect setting of powersave_nap to 1 on all
PowerMacs, potentially causing memory corruption on some models. This
bug was introuced by me during the 32/64 bits merge.

cd9c99d7e5 [PATCH] powerpc: Clarify wording for CRASH_DUMP Kconfig option
The wording of the CRASH_DUMP Kconfig option is not very clear. It gives you a
kernel that can be used _as_ the kdump kernel, not a kernel that can boot into
a kdump kernel.

Enable the onboard IDE driver for p610, p615 and p630.
They have the CD connected to this card. All other RS/6000 systems with this
controller have no connectors and dont need this option.

Correct the loop for cacheflush. No idea where I copied the code from,
but the original does not work correct. Maybe the flush is not needed.

0a45d4491d powerpc: Fix problem with time going backwards
The recent changes to keep gettimeofday in sync with xtime had the side
effect that it was occasionally possible for the time reported by
gettimeofday to go back by a microsecond.  There were two reasons:
(1) when we recalculated the offsets used by gettimeofday every 2^31
timebase ticks, we lost an accumulated fractional microsecond, and
(2) because the update is done some time after the notional start of
jiffy, if ntp is slowing the clock, it is possible to see time go backwards
when the timebase factor gets reduced.

This fixes it by (a) slowing the gettimeofday clock by about 1us in
2^31 timebase ticks (a factor of less than 1 in 3.7 million), and (b)
adjusting the timebase offsets in the rare case that the gettimeofday
result could possibly go backwards (i.e. when ntp is slowing the clock
and the timer interrupt is late).  In this case the adjustment will
reduce to zero eventually because of (a).

2d7f2ea9c9 [PATCH] Fix ext2 readdir f_pos re-validation logic
This fixes not one, but _two_, silly (but admittedly hard to hit) bugs
in the ext2 filesystem "readdir()" function.  It also cleans up the code
to avoid the unnecessary goto mess.

The bugs were related to re-valiating the f_pos value after somebody had
either done an "lseek()" on the directory to an invalid offset, or when
the offset had become invalid due to a file being unlinked in the
directory.  The code would not only set the f_version too eagerly, it
would also not update f_pos appropriately for when the offset fixup took
place.

When that happened, we'd occasionally subsequently fail the readdir()
even when we shouldn't (no real harm done, but an ugly printk, and
obviously you would end up not necessarily seeing all entries).

Thanks to Masoud Sharbiani <masouds@google.com> who noticed the problem
and had a test-case for it, and also fixed up a thinko in the first
version of this patch.
