6ad8d010b2 [POWERPC] Fix possible access to free pages
I think we have a subtle race on ppc64 with the tlb batching.  The
common code expects tlb_flush() to actually flush any pending TLB
batch.  It does that because it delays all page freeing until after
tlb_flush() is called, in order to ensure no stale reference to
those pages exist in any TLB, thus causing potential access to
the freed pages.

However, our tlb_flush only triggers the RCU for freeing page
table pages, it does not currently trigger a flush of a pending
TLB/hash batch, which is, I think, an error.  This fixes it.

988519acb3 [POWERPC] Fix compiler/assembler flags for Ebony platform boot files
The recent addition of assembler flags for 44x.c and ebony.c in the
bootwrapper to make them compile on certain toolchains was not correct
and could break other platforms.  This patch switches to using a
compiler flag instead, which implies the appropriate assembler flag,
and also stops the compiler itself generating instructions which are
invalid for the platform in question.

7d43e57764 [POWERPC] Fix ppc32 single-stepping out of syscalls
The ppc32 kernel didn't properly set/clear the TIF_SINGLESTEP
flag, causing return from syscalls to not SIGTRAP, thus executing
one more instruction before stopping again.

This fixes it.  The ptrace code is a bit of a mess, and is overdue
for at least a -proper- 32/64 bits split and possibly more cleanups
but this minimum fix should be ok for 2.6.22

94774a3a8e [SCSI] aacraid: fix shutdown handler to also disable interrupts.
Moves quiesce, thread and interrupt shutdown into aacraid drivers'
.shutdown handler. This fix to the aac_shutdown handler will remove the
superfluous reset of the adapter during a (clean) kexec.

This fix may mitigate the active investigation 'kexec and aacraid
broken' but it is unlikely to affect the root cause (issue likely
present in both kexec and kdump). This patch reduces the chance the
problem will occur with a kexec. The fix for root cause is currently
expected to be the minimum value check to the aacraid.startup_timeout
driver variable after an adapter reset within aacraid_commit_reset.patch
submitted on 05/22/2007 and awaiting testing by Yinghai to confirm.

The value T2_DENSE_MEM is now subtracted from the "xaddr" argument in

directly, rather than always through the ioreadNN/iowriteNN routines.

Examples of the direct calls, via the __raw_readX/writeX macros, are

025a22151c ALPHA: support graphics on non-zero PCI domains
This code replaces earlier and incomplete handling of graphics on non-zero PCI
domains (aka hoses or peer PCI buses).

An option (CONFIG_VGA_HOSE) is set TRUE if configuring a GENERIC kernel, or a
kernel for MARVEL, TITAN, or TSUNAMI machines, as these are the machines whose
SRM consoles are capable of configuring and handling graphics options on
non-zero hoses.  All other machines have the option set FALSE.

A routine, "find_console_vga_hose()", is used to find the graphics device
which the machine's firmware believes is the console device, and it sets a
global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device.  This is
called in "init_arch" on TITAN and TSUNAMI machines; MARVEL machines use a
custom version of this routine because of extra complexity.

A routine, "locate_and_init_vga()", is used to find the graphics device and
set a global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device, in
the case where "find_console_vga_hose" has failed.

Various adjustments are made to the ioremap and ioportmap routines for
detecting and translating "legacy" VGA register and memory references to the
real PCI domain.

5a9a62bb03 atmel_spi dma address bugfix
When either rx_buf or tx_buf is not being used, i.e.  for plain read- or
write operations, the atmel_spi uses a fixed-size DMA buffer instead.  If
the transfer is longer than the size of this buffer, it is split into
multiple DMA transfers.

When the transfer is split like this, the atmel_spi driver ends up using
the same DMA address again and again even for the buffer that came from the
user, which is of course wrong.  Fix this by adding the number of bytes
already transferred to the DMA address so that the data ends up in the
right place.

Thanks to Wu Xuan for discovering this bug.

0a920b5b66 add a trivial patch style checker
We are seeing increasing levels of minor patch style violations in submissions
to the mailing lists as well as making it into the tree.  These detract from
the quality of the submission and cause unnessary work for reviewers.

As a first step package up the current state of the patch style checker and
include it in the kernel tree.  Add instructions suggesting running it on
submissions.  This adds version v0.01 of the checkpatch.pl script.

9db71a188b fbdev: Move declaration of fb_class to <linux/fb.h>
Move the forward declaration of fb_class from drivers/video/console/fbcon.h to
<linux/fb.h>, together with the other forward declarations related to
drivers/video/fbmem.c.

This kills the following sparse warning:
| drivers/video/fbmem.c:1363:14: warning: symbol 'fb_class' was not declared. Should it be static?

bfeeffbb4f cfag12864bfb: Use sys_ instead of cfb_ framebuffer accessors
Because the framebuffer memory is allocated system RAM, use the sys_ drawing
libraries. It also fixes the following compile error:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
drivers/built-in.o:(.data+0x8b48): undefined reference to `cfb_fillrect'
drivers/built-in.o:(.data+0x8b50): undefined reference to `cfb_copyarea'
drivers/built-in.o:(.data+0x8b58): undefined reference to `cfb_imageblit'

[adaplas]
Use fb_sys_read/write for the same reasons as above.

f0ede66fca fix compat futex code for private futexes
When the private futex support was added the compat code wasn't changed.
The result is that code using compat code which fail, e.g., because the
timeout values are not correctly passed.  The following patch should fix
that.

b9e82af823 Work around Dell E520 BIOS reboot bug
Force Dell E520 to use the BIOS to shutdown/reboot.

I have at least one report that this patch fixes shutdown/reboot
problems on the Dell E520 platform.

(Andi says: People can always set the boot option.  It hardly seems like a
critical issue needing a backport.)

0939c17c7b x86: fix oprofile double free
Chuck reports that the recent fix from Andi to oprofile
6c977aad03 introduces a double free.  Each
cpu's cpu_msrs is setup to point to cpu 0's, which causes free_msrs to free
cpu 0's pointers for_each_possible_cpu.  Rather than copy the pointers, do
a deep copy instead.

[acme@redhat.com: allocate_msrs() was using for_each_online_cpu()]

632155e659 potential parse error in ifdef
I have made a tool to parse the kernel that does not pre-process the
source.  That means that my parser tries to parse all the code, including
code in the #else branch or code that is not often compiled because the
driver is not very used (or not used at all).  So, my parser sometimes
reports parse error not originally detected by gcc.  Here is my (first)
patch.
