  [PATCH] minor slab cleanups for hotplug CPUs
  
  - Move free_block prototype, and ac_entry and ac_data functions up in file.
  
  - Use list_for_each_entry in cpuup_callback.
  
  - Remove unneccessary g_cpucache_up in cpuup_callback.
  
  - Make reap_timer_func take CPU number as data, and check if that is
    offline before rescheduing (noop without CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU).

  [PATCH] remove sparc64's num_possible_cpus()
  
  Levent Serinol <levent.serinol@mynet.com> found that the hotplug cpu
  patch broke Sparc64.  I introduced a num_possible_cpus(), which
  Sparc64 already has.  Remove the Sparc64 one.
  
  I also removed Sparc64's cpu_online() macro: it's in linux/cpumask.h
  already.

  [PATCH] minor cleanups for hotplug CPUs
  
  Note that without CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, online cpus == possible cpus, so
  substitutions are a noop.
  
  - Changes show_stat to print out stats for every possible cpu, not
    just online CPUs.
  
  - Allocate mem in stat_open on possible, not online_cpus.
  
  - Add conventient macros to cpu.h: especially cpu_is_offline() for
    testing if a cpu is still online.
  
  - Add a num_possible_cpus() similar to num_online_cpus(), and define
    cpu_possible_mask for UP.
  
  - Allow printk on down cpus once system is running.
  
  - Mask cpumask with possible, not online cpus, for sys_getaffinity().

  Extracts core of drain_pages() for hotcpu use.  Trivial.
  
  Hotplug CPU needs to drain pages on a downed CPU (usually it's the
  current cpu).  Introduce "__drain_pages", make the CPU an argument,
  and expose it if CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU as well as CONFIG_PM.

  Ok, found it.
  
  It really looks like the new EISA probing code in hp100 never got
  tested, since a precious offset has disappeared during the rewriting
  process.
  
  Please note that you still need to enable the device by hand, since
  your BIOS (or maybe the EISA CFG file, since I'm seeing the exact same
  problem on a Compaq machine here) doesn't properly enable the card.
  
  Here is what I'm getting on my test system :
  
  EISA: Probing bus 0 at 0000:00:0f.0
  EISA: Mainboard CPQ0541 detected.
  EISA: slot 1 : DEC4250 detected.
  EISA: slot 2 : UNB0048 detected.
  EISA: slot 3 : HWP1940 detected (forced enabled).
  hp100: Using (slow) programmed i/o mode.
  hp100: at 0x3c38, IRQ 3, EISA bus, 128k SRAM (rx/tx 75%).
  hp100: Adapter is attached to 10Mb/s network (10baseT).

  [PATCH] stop_machine_run: Move Bogolock Code Out of module.c
  
  The "bogolock" code was introduced in module.c, as a way of freezing
  the machine when we wanted to remove a module.  This patch moves it
  out to stop_machine.c and stop_machine.h.
  
  Since the code changes affinity and proirity, it's impolite to hijack
  the current context, so we use a kthread.  This means we have to pass
  the function rather than implement "stop_machine()" and
  "restart_machine()".

  [PATCH] vma corruption fix
  
  From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>
  
  Fixes bugzilla #2219
  
  fork's dup_mmap leaves child mm_rb as copied from parent mm while doing all
  the copy_page_ranges, and then calls build_mmap_rb without holding
  page_table_lock.
  
  try_to_unmap_one's find_vma (holding page_table_lock not mmap_sem) coming
  on another cpu may cause mm mayhem.  It may leave the child's mmap_cache
  pointing to a vma of the parent mm.
  
  When the parent exits and the child faults, quite what happens rather
  depends on what junk then inhabits vm_page_prot, which gets set in the page
  table, with page_add_rmap adding the ptep, but junk pte likely to fail the
  tests for page_remove_rmap.
  
  Eventually the child exits, the page table is freed and try_to_unmap_one
  oopses on null ptep_to_mm (but in a kernel with rss limiting, usually
  page_referenced hits the null ptep_to_mm first).
  
  This took me days and days to unravel!  Big thanks to Matthieu for
  reporting it with a good test case.

  JFS: Avoid incrementing i_count on file create
  
  Committing a transaction creating a file required insuring that the
  inode stayed in cache until the journal was written to.  i_count was
  being incremented until the transaction was complete.
  
  However, incrementing i_count caused fcntl(S_SETLEASE) to fail.  I
  reworked the transaction code so that the inode does not have to
  stay in-memory while the transaction is being committed.
  
  Thanks to Steve French for figuring out why setlease was failing.

  [PATCH] Fix nobh_prepare_write() race
  
  Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com> points out a race between
  nobh_prepare_write() and end_buffer_read_sync().  end_buffer_read_sync()
  calls unlock_buffer(), waking the nobh_prepare_write() thread, which
  immediately frees the buffer_head.  end_buffer_read_sync() then calls
  put_bh() which decrements b_count for the already freed structure.  The
  SLAB_DEBUG code detects the slab corruption.
  
  We fix this by giving nobh_prepare_write() a private buffer_head end_o
  handler which doesn't touch the buffer's contents after unlocking it.

  [PATCH] ext2/ext3 -ENOSPC bug
  
  From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com>
  
  find_group_other looks buggy for ext2 and ext3 in 2.6, it can cause -ENOSPC
  errors when the fs has plenty of free room.
  
  To hit the bug, you need a filesystem where:
  
  parent_group has no free blocks (but might have free inodes) Every other
  group with free inodes has no free blocks.
  
  That gets you down to the final linear search in find_group_other.  The
  linear search has two bugs:
  
  group = parent_group + 1; means we start searching at parent_group + 2
  because the loop increments group before using it.
  
  for(i = 2 ; i < ngroups ; i++) means we don't search through all the
  groups.
  
  The end result is that parent_group and parent_group + 1 are not checked
  for free inodes in the final linear search.  ext3 has the same problem.

  [PATCH] ppc64: Convert mm_context_t to a struct
  
  From: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
  
  Converts the mm_context_t on ppc64 to be a struct.  This lets us separate
  the low_hpages flag into a separate field rather than folding it into the
  actual context id.  That makes things neater, since the flag is
  conceptually separate and has, for example, should be propogate across a
  fork whereas the context ID obviously isn't.  The mm_context_id is the only
  place to put arch-specific information in the mm_struct.
  
  This patch will also make some interesting extensions to the hugepage
  support much easier, such as allowing dynamic resizing of the hugepage
  address space, or using special pagetables for hugepages.

  [SERIAL] Correct Oxford Semiconductor 16PCI952 PCI type entry.
  
  WRT 2.4, Ed Vance put this fix into 2.4:
  
   According to the data sheet, the OX16PCI952 has port 0 in BAR0 and
   port 1 in BAR1. (unlike the OX16C954, BTW) The 921600 base baud value
   is your oscillator rate divided by the default oversample rate, 16.
  
  Since 2.6 PCI IDs have been updated to use the real device ID for
  this part, we really should include this fix as well.

  [SERIAL] Make serial console work for any port (take 2)
  
  The current serial console code only works for ports that are either
  defined in SERIAL_PORT_DFNS (and set up by serial8250_isa_init_ports())
  or registered by early_serial_setup().
  
  On ia64, SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is empty because we discover everything
  via ACPI and PCI.  And we only use early_serial_setup() for one port
  described by the HCDP firmware table.
  
  This patch against 2.6.4-rc1 makes it work for any valid port.  If we
  don't know about the port early, we just return -ENODEV from the
  setup() function, which leaves the serial console disabled.  After the
  driver has found all the ports, we try to register the serial console
  again if it hasn't been enabled already.
  
  Keith Owens noticed that the first version of this patch broke some
  serial console setups because many early serial ports are registered
  with "type == PORT_UNKNOWN".  So this version tests "port->ops"
  instead, and Keith has confirmed that this works for him.

  [Bluetooth] Send HCI_Reset for some Broadcom dongles
  
  This patch introduces a quirk flag for sending the HCI_Reset command. In
  general the HCI_Reset is not needed, but some Broadcom dongles uses this
  reset command to switch from HID to HCI mode. And it is not safe to send
  the HCI_Reset to every Bluetooth device, because the CSR firmware prior
  HCI 12.x will reset the host transport and this is wrong according to the
  Bluetooth specification.

  [PATCH] kNFSd -  Tidy up new filehandle type.
  
  nfsd uses several different mechanisms for identifying the filesystem

    Marks type 2 as deprecated - it wastes space, and space in the filehandle
       is not unlimited
    Adds type 3 which handles new, large device number in 32bits of space
    Tidies up the code for determining which type to use in a newly created
    filehandle - the addition of type 2 broke this code.

  [ARM PATCH] 1757/1: Allow building of LE kernels with BE-default toolchain
  
  Patch from Deepak Saxena
  
  The ARM makefile currently assumes that the compiler being used 
  defaults to little-endian builds unless the big-endian options
  are provided. This may not always be the case (my toolchains default
  to BE since that's what I mostly work with) so this patch forces
  endianess options to be passed to the toolchain. W/O this,
  building without CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN on a big-endian toolchain 
  will still result in a big-endian kernel.

  [IRDA]: stir4200 update for 2.6.4-rc1
  
  New revision of the Sigmatel irda driver.  This version has much
  better performance and doesn't drop frames in FIR mode.
  Tested with both UHCI and EHCI/OHCI against nsc-ircc on laptop.
  Thanks to Martin for additional testing and feedback.
  
  * Receiver:
  	- changed from interrupt to bulk URB.  Queue's one bulk
  	  urb per USB tick (1ms).
  	- FIR unpack now uses get_unaligned and cpu32_le
  	  instead of explicit shifts
  	- FIR unpack copies small frames
  * Transmitter:
  	- pack data into io buffer.  Since irda is half duplex
  	  can use same buffer for transmit and receive.
  	- use xchange and wait_event for synchronization
  * Other:
  	- use USB format messages rather than IRDA (ugly)
  	- clean up USB startup
  	- reset device on network open to clear up stuck state
  	- handle FIFO errors
  	- disconnect cleanup (from viro)
  	- don't DMA onto stack when reading fifo status
