8b0c2d989c [PATCH] DocBook: Use xmlto to process the DocBook files.
xmlto uses standared XSLT templates to generate manpages, (x)html pages, and
XML FO files which can be processed with passivetex.  This is much faster than
using jadetex for everything.  This patch also reduces the number of
kernel-specific scripts that are needed to generate documentation.

4dc3b16ba1 [PATCH] DocBook: changes and extensions to the kernel documentation
I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our
university students again.  The documentation could be extended for more
sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels.  I
have tried to proceed with that task.  I have done that more times from 2.6.0
time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again.  Linux kernel
compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets.  I have added references to
some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well.
 So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are
not too much skewed.

I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved
by kernel convention.  Most of the other changes are modifications in the
comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do
not bail out on errors.  Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some
#ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc.

You can see result of the modified documentation build at
  http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz

Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated
documentation.  Sources has been added into kernel-api for now.  Some more
section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick
cleanup work.

Attached is a patch against 2.6.11.7 which tidies up the tdfxfb framebuffer
size detection code a little and fixes the broken support for Voodoo4/5

fe55c45236 [PATCH] ext3: remove unnecessary race then retry in ext3_get_block
The extra race-with-truncate-then-retry logic around
ext3_get_block_handle(), which was inherited from ext2, becomes unecessary
for ext3, since we have already obtained the ei->truncate_sem in
ext3_get_block_handle() before calling ext3_alloc_branch().  The
ei->truncate_sem is already there to block concurrent truncate and block
allocation on the same inode.  So the inode's indirect addressing tree
won't be changed after we grab that semaphore.

We could, after get the semaphore, re-verify the branch is up-to-date or
not.  If it has been changed, then get the updated branch.  If we still
need block allocation, we will have a safe version of the branch to work
with in the ext3_find_goal()/ext3_splice_branch().

The code becomes more readable after remove those retry logic.  The patch
also clean up some gotos in ext3_get_block_handle() to make it more
readable.

f8e08a8466 [PATCH] reiserfs endianness: sanitize reiserfs_key union
Since we only access reiserfs_key ->u.k_offset_v2 guts in four helper
functions, we are free to sanitize those, as long as

- layout of the structure is unchanged (it's on-disk object)

- behaviour of these helpers is same as before.

Patch kills the mess with endianness-dependent bitfields and replaces them
with a single __le64.  Helpers are switched to straightforward shift/and/or.

Benefits:

- exact same definitions for little- and big-endian architectures; no ifdefs
  in sight.

- generate the same code on little-endian and improved on big-endian.

- doesn't rely on lousy bitfields handling in gcc codegenerator.

- happens to be standard C (unsigned long long is not a valid type for a
  bitfield; it's a gccism and not well-implemented one, at that).

6b9f5829e6 [PATCH] reiserfs endianness: comp_short_keys() cleanup
comp_short_keys() massaged into sane form, which kills the last place where
pointer to in_core_key (or any object containing such) would be cast to or
from something else.  At that point we are free to change layout of
in_core_key - nothing depends on it anymore.

So we drop the mess with union in there and simply use (unconditional) __u64
k_offset and __u8 k_type instead; places using in_core_key switched to those.
That gives _far_ better code than current mess - on all platforms.

e5bdd883a1 [PATCH] new valid_signal() function
This patch adds a new function valid_signal() that tests if its argument is
a valid signal number.

The reasons for adding this new function are:

- some code currently testing _NSIG directly has off-by-one errors.
  Using this function instead avoids such errors.

- some code currently tests unsigned signal numbers for <0 which is
  pointless and generates warnings when building with gcc -W.  Using this
  function instead avoids such warnings.

I considered various places to add this function but eventually settled on
include/linux/signal.h as the most logical place for it.  If there's some
reason this is a bad choice then please let me know (hints as to a better
location are then welcome of course).

882fe011a9 [PATCH] ipmi: fix a deadlock
Correct an issue with the IPMI message layer taking a lock and calling
lower layer driver.  If an error occrues at the lower layer the lock can be
taken again causing a deadlock.  The lock is released before calling the
lower layer.

9dbf68f97d [PATCH] ipmi: enable interrupts on the BT driver
Enable interrupts for a BT interface.  There is a specific register that
needs to be set up to enable interrupts that also must be modified to clear
the irq.

Also, don't reset the BMC on a BT interface.  That's probably not a good
idea as the BMC may be performing other important functions and a reset
should only be a last resort.  Also, that register is also used to
enable/disable interrupts to the BT; modifying it may screw up the
interrupts.

35bc37a0e0 [PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad ACPI data
If the ACPI register bit width is zero (an invalid value) assume it is the
default spacing.  This avoids some coredumps on invalid data and makes some
systems work that have broken ACPI data.

9206880198 [PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad IPMI DMI data
Ignore the bottom bit of the base address from the DMI data.  It is
supposed to be set to 1 if it is I/O space.  Few systems do this, but this
enables the ones that do set it to work properly.
