065b807ca1 [CPUFREQ] dual-core powernow-k8
With the release of the dual-core AMD Opterons last week,
it's high time that cpufreq supported them.  The attached
patch applies cleanly to 2.6.12-rc3 and updates powernow-k8
to support the latest Athlon 64 and Opteron processors.

Update the driver to version 1.40.0 and provide support
for dual-core processors.

91350ed49b [CPUFREQ] Recalibrate cpu_khz [1/2]
We have to recalibrate cpu_khz in order to use the current FID instead the max
FID since some BIOS do not put the processor at maximum frequency at POST. 
Also, some BIOS will change the processor frequency at our back after cpu_khz
was calibrate.  Finally, this will fix a long standing bug when we do
something like this:

# rmmod powernow-k7
# modprobe powernow-k7

be mapped using ioremap at the point of use.

92b4dc1625 [PATCH] ppc32: Simplified load string emulation error checking
The error checking for emulation of load string instructions was overly
generous and would cause certain valid forms of the instructions to be
treated as illegal.  We drop the range checking since the architecture
allows this to be boundedly undefined.  Tests on CPUs that support these
instructions appear not do cause illegal instruction traps on range errors
and just allow the execution to occur.

Thanks to Kim Phillips for debugging this and figuring out what real HW was
doing.

b16eeb4729 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix cpufreq vs. sleep issue
Recent kernels occasionally trigger a PMU timeout on some mac laptops,
typically on wakeup from sleep.  This seem to be caused by either a too big
latency caused by the cpufreq switch on wakeup from sleep or by an
interrupt beeing lost due to the reset of the interrupt controller done
during wakeup.

This patch makes that code more robust by stopping PMU auto poll activity
around cpufreq changes on machines that use the PMU for such changes (long
latency switching involving a CPU hard reset and flush of all caches) and
by removing the reset of the open pic interrupt controller on wakeup (that
can cause the loss of an interrupt and Darwin doesn't do it, so it must not
be necessary).

d0e8e29100 [PATCH] ppc64 iSeries: fix boot time setting
For quite a while, there has existed a hypervisor bug on legacy iSeries
which means that we do not get the boot time set in the kernel.  This
patch works around that bug.  This was most noticable when the root
partition needed to be checked at every boot as the kernel thought it
was some time in 1905 until user mode reset the time correctly.
