6bf08cb246 [PATCH] Add CMSPAR to termbits.h for powerpc and alpha
Some driver wants to use CMSPAR, but it was missing on alpha and powerpc.
This adds it, with the same value as every other architecture uses.

(akpm: fixes the build of an upcoming gregkh USB patch)

54f4ee183a [PATCH] powerpc: fix RTC/NVRAM accesses on Maple
Due to a firmware device tree bug, RTC and NVRAM accesses (including
halt/reboot) on Maple have been broken since January, when an untested
build fix went in. This code patches the device tree in Linux.

8e30a9a299 [PATCH] ppc32 CPM_UART: various fixes for pq2 uart users
This fixes various odd things that missed update together with cpm_uart
platform_device move. Unified resources names, restructurisation, etc.
Also, addressed issue with recent phys/virt translation rework. Being
cache-coherent, CPM2's do alloc_bootmem() for the console stuff, and it was
used to treat console buffer descriptor mapping 1:1 (as in CPM1 case),
which is definitely wrong.

ab28b171ea IB/mthca: Fix posting lists of 256 receive requests to SRQ for Tavor
If we post a list of length exactly a multiple of 256, nreq in
doorbell gets set to 256 which is wrong: it should be encoded by 0.
This is because we only zero it out on the next WR, which may not be
there.  The solution is to ring the doorbell after posting a WQE, not
before posting the next one.

This is the same bug that we just fixed for QPs with non-shared RQ.

b964638ffd JFS: Fix multiple errors in metapage_releasepage
It looks like metapage_releasepage was making in invalid assumption that
the releasepage method would not be called on a dirty page.  Instead of
issuing a warning and releasing the metapage, it should return 0, indicating
that the private data for the page cannot be released.

I also realized that metapage_releasepage had the return code all wrong.  If
it is successful in releasing the private data, it should return 1, otherwise
it needs to return 0.

Lastly, there is no need to call wait_on_page_writeback, since
try_to_release_page will not call us with a page in writback state.

The bridge SAP might be shared with other usages, so need

Since packet might arrive after or during removal, need to clear

3977026462 IB/ipath: fix null deref during rdma ops
The problem was that node A's sending thread, which handles sending RDMA
read response data, would write the trigger word, the last packet would
be sent, node B would send a new RDMA read request, node A's interrupt
handler would initialize s_rdma_sge, then node A's sending thread would
update s_rdma_sge.  This didn't happen very often naturally but was more
frequent with 1 byte RDMA reads.  Rather than adding more locking or
increasing the QP structure size and copying sge data, I modified the
copy routine to update the pointers before writing the trigger word to
avoid the update race.

fd0ff8aa1d [PATCH] blk: fix gendisk->in_flight accounting during barrier sequence
While executing barrrier sequence, the bar_rq which carries actual
write was accounted as normal IO on completion, while it wasn't on
queueing.  This caused gendisk->in_flight to be decremented by 1 after
each barrier thus messed up statistics.

This patch makes bar_rq not accounted as normal IO.  As the containing
barrier request as a whole is accounted, part of it shouldn't be.

30d6b2f374 [PATCH] swsusp: fix typo in cr0 handling
Writing cr0 to cr2 register can't be right.  This fixes the typo.  I wonder
how it could survive so long.

ff4547f4aa [PATCH] tty_insert_flip_string_flags() license fix
We still don't have the tty layer licensing compatibility quite right.

tty_insert_flip_char() used to be inlined in include/linux/tty_flip.h.  It
is now out-of-lined and hence needs EXPORT_SYMBOL() to be back-compatible.

One known offender is the Intel Modem driver.

5c4c33318d [PATCH] md: fix possible oops when starting a raid0 array
This loop that sets up the hash_table has problems.

Careful examination will show that the last time through, everything but
the first line is pointless.  This is because all it does is change 'cur'
and 'size' and neither of these are used after the loop.  This should ring
warning bells...  That last time through the loop,

        size += conf->strip_zone[cur].size

can index off the end of the strip_zone array.  Depending on what it finds
there, it might exit the loop cleanly, or it might spin going further and
further beyond the array until it hits an unmapped address.

This patch rearranges the code so that the last, pointless, iteration of
the loop never happens.  i.e.  the one statement of the last loop that is
needed is moved the the end of the previous loop - or to before the loop
starts - and the loop counter starts from 1 instead of 0.

f2d395865f [PATCH] knfsd: Fix two problems that can cause rmmod nfsd to die
Both cause the 'entries' count in the export cache to be non-zero at module
removal time, so unregistering that cache fails and results in an oops.

1/ exp_pseudoroot (used for NFSv4 only) leaks a reference to an export
   entry.
2/ sunrpc_cache_update doesn't increment the entries count when it adds
   an entry.

Thanks to "david m.  richter" <richterd@citi.umich.edu> for triggering the
problem and finding one of the bugs.
