For Freescale 8xxx devices that use an MPIC, the interrupt numbers in
the device tree must be 16 greater than the values documented in the
reference manual. In these chips, the MPIC is wired to use the first
16 numbers for external interrupts, but the documentation numbers
internal interrupts from 0.
In the MPC8610 HPCD device tree, the interrupt properties for the DMA
channels for DMA2 were not the adjusted values. This fixes that.

The device shut down does not cleanup the next_event variable of the
clock event device. So when the device is reactivated the possible
stale next_event value can prevent the device to be reprogrammed as it
claims to wait on a event already.
This is the root cause of the resurfacing suspend/resume problem,
where systems need key press to come back to life.
Fix this by setting next_event to KTIME_MAX when the device is shut
down. Use a separate function for shutdown which takes care of that
and only keep the direct set mode call in the broadcast code, where we
can not touch the next_event value.

Taking rtnl_lock in ipoib_mcast_join_complete() causes a deadlock with
ipoib_stop(). We avoid it by scheduling the piece of code that takes
the lock on ipoib_workqueue instead of executing it directly. This
works because we only flush the ipoib_workqueue with the RTNL not held.
The deadlock happens because ipoib_stop() calls ipoib_ib_dev_down()
which calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which calls ipoib_mcast_free(),
which calls ipoib_mcast_leave(). The latter calls
ib_sa_free_multicast(), and this waits until the multicast completion
handler finishes. This handler is ipoib_mcast_join_complete(), which
waits for the rtnl_lock(), which was already taken by ipoib_stop().
This bug was introduced in commit a77a57a1 ("IPoIB: Fix deadlock on
RTNL in ipoib_stop()").

Based upon a report by Meelis Roos.
Any function call can try to access the current
thread register via the _mcount hooks when the kernel
is built with -pg (via ftrace or STACK_DEBUG).
That can't be setup properly very early on during
the bootup of other cpus for sun4u and some early
sun4v systems.
So add notrace markers to these specific functions, so
that _mcount doesn't get invoked too early.

We no longer put the top-level PCI controller device into the

The problem is that dev->driver_data for a ccw device is NULL,
while it should point to the ccwgroup device it is a member of.
This happened due to incorrect cleanup if creating a ccwgroup
device failed because the ccw devices were already grouped.
Fix this by setting cdev[i] to NULL in the error handling of
ccwgroup_create_from_string() after we give up our reference and
by checking if the driver_data points to the ccwgroup device in
ccwgroup_release() just to be really sure.

- 8-bit interface mode never worked properly. The only adapter I have
which supports the 8b mode (the Jmicron) had some problems with its
clock wiring and they discovered it only now. We also discovered that
ProHG media is more sensitive to the ordering of initialization
commands.
- Make the driver fall back to highest supported mode instead of always
falling back to serial. The driver will attempt the switch to 8b mode
for any new MSPro card, but not all of them support it. Previously,
these new cards ended up in serial mode, which is not the best idea
(they work fine with 4b, after all).

When suspending the system with atmel_lcdfb enabled, I sometimes see
this:
atmel_lcdfb atmel_lcdfb.0: FIFO underflow 0x10
Which can be explained by the fact that we're not stopping the LCD
controller and its DMA engine when suspending, we're just gating the
clocks to them.
There's another potential issue which may be harder to trigger but
much more nasty: If we gate the clocks at _just_ the right moment,
e.g. when the DMA engine is doing a bus transaction, we may cause the
DMA engine to violate the system bus protocol and cause a lockup.
Avoid these issues by shutting down the LCD controller before entering
suspend (and restarting it when resuming). This prevents the underrun
from happening in the first place, and prevents whatever nastiness is
happening when the bus clock stops in the middle of a DMA transfer.

If you are on ia64 and you modprobe xpc then modprobe -r xpc, you
immediately get a panic. xpc depends on xp which depends on gru for a
symbol. That symbol is only used when we are running on UV hardware.
Currently, the GRU driver detects we are not on UV hardware and does no
initializing. It does not do the same check when unloading. As a result,
the gru driver attempts to tear down stuff that was not setup.
This is a simple two-line workaround to get us through this release. Once
2.6.28 is opened, we need to rework the symbols that xp is depending on
from gru so the gru driver can properly fail to load when hardware is not
available.

The iterator for_each_zone_zonelist() uses a struct zoneref *z cursor when
scanning zonelists to keep track of where in the zonelist it is. The
zoneref that is returned corresponds to the the next zone that is to be
scanned, not the current one. It was intended to be treated as an opaque
list.
When the page allocator is scanning a zonelist, it marks elements in the
zonelist corresponding to zones that are temporarily full. As the
zonelist is being updated, it uses the cursor here;
if (NUMA_BUILD)
zlc_mark_zone_full(zonelist, z);
This is intended to prevent rescanning in the near future but the zoneref
cursor does not correspond to the zone that has been found to be full.
This is an easy misunderstanding to make so this patch corrects the
problem by changing zoneref cursor to be the current zone being scanned
instead of the next one.

Fixes two DMA bugs in the pxa2xx_spi driver. The first bug is in all
versions of this driver; the second was introduced in the 2.6.20 kernel,
and prevents using the driver with chips like m25p16 flash (which can
issue large DMA reads).
1. Zero length transfers are permitted for use to insert timing,
but pxa2xx_spi.c will fail if this is requested in DMA mode.
Fixed by using programmed I/O (PIO) mode for such transfers.
2. Transfers larger than 8191 are not permitted in DMA mode. A
test for length rejects all large transfers regardless of DMA
or PIO mode. Worked around by rejecting only large transfers
with DMA mapped buffers, and forcing all other transfers
larger than 8191 to use PIO mode. A rate limited warning is
issued for DMA transfers forced to PIO mode.
This patch should apply to all kernels back to and including 2.6.20;
it was test patched against 2.6.20. An additional patch would be
required for older kernels, but those versions are very buggy anyway.

Fixes several chipselect bugs in the pxa2xx_spi driver. These bugs are in
all versions of this driver and prevent using it with chips like m25p16
flash.
1. The spi_transfer.cs_change flag is handled too early:
before spi_transfer.delay_usecs applies, thus making the
delay ineffective at holding chip select.
2. spi_transfer.delay_usecs is ignored on the last transfer
of a message (likewise not holding chipselect long enough).
3. If spi_transfer.cs_change is set on the last transfer, the
chip select is always disabled, instead of the intended
meaning: optionally holding chip select enabled for the
next message.
Those first three bugs were fixed with a relocation of delays
and chip select de-assertions.
4. If a message has the cs_change flag set on the last transfer,
and had the chip select stayed enabled as requested (see 3,
above), it would not have been disabled if the next message is
for a different chip. Fixed by dropping chip select regardless
of cs_change at end of a message, if there is no next message
or if the next message is for a different chip.
This patch should apply to all kernels back to and including 2.6.20;
it was test patched against 2.6.20. An additional patch would be
required for older kernels, but those versions are very buggy anyway.

=======================
The problem is that we don't unlock the bfs->lock mutex before calling
iput (we do in the other cases).

cpusets: restructure the function update_cpumask() and update_nodemask()
It might happen that 'echo 0 > /cpuset/sub/cpus' returned failure but 'cpus'
has been changed, because cpus was changed before calling heap_init() which
may return -ENOMEM.
This patch restores the orginal behavior.

Print parent directory name as well.
The aim is to catch non-creation of parent directory when proc_mkdir will
return NULL and all subsequent registrations go directly in /proc instead

I recently bought 3 HGST P7K500-series 500GB SATA drives and
had trouble accessing the block right on the LBA28-LBA48 border.
Here's how it fails (same for all 3 drives):
# dd if=/dev/sdc bs=512 count=1 skip=268435455 > /dev/null
dd: reading `/dev/sdc': Input/output error
0+0 records in

# dmesg
ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0
ata1.00: BMDMA stat 0x25
ata1.00: cmd c8/00:08:f8:ff:ff/00:00:00:00:00/ef tag 0 dma 4096 in

ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR }
ata1.00: error: { ABRT }
ata1.00: configured for UDMA/33
ata1: EH complete
...
After some investigations, it turned out this seems to be caused
by misinterpretation of the ATA specification on LBA28 access.
Following part is the code in question:
=== include/linux/ata.h ===
static inline int lba_28_ok(u64 block, u32 n_block)
{
/* check the ending block number */
return ((block + n_block - 1) < ((u64)1 << 28)) && (n_block <= 256);
}
HGST drive (sometimes) fails with LBA28 access of {block = 0xfffffff,
n_block = 1}, and this behavior seems to be comformant. Other drives,
including other HGST drives are not that strict, through.
>From the ATA specification:
(http://www.t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/project/d1410r3b-ATA-ATAPI-6.pdf)
8.15.29 Word (61:60): Total number of user addressable sectors
This field contains a value that is one greater than the total number
of user addressable sectors (see 6.2). The maximum value that shall
be placed in this field is 0FFFFFFFh.
So the driver shouldn't use the value of 0xfffffff for LBA28 request
as this exceeds maximum user addressable sector. The logical maximum
value for LBA28 is 0xffffffe.
The obvious fix is to cut "- 1" part, and the patch attached just do
that. I've been using the patched kernel for about a month now, and
the same fix is also floating on the net for some time. So I believe
this fix works reliably.
Just FYI, many Windows/Intel platform users also seems to be struck
by this, and HGST has issued a note pointing to Intel ICH8/9 driver.
"28-bit LBA command is being used to access LBAs 29-bits in length"

Also, *BSDs seems to have similar fix included sometime around ~2004,
through I have not checked out exact portion of the code.

PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS was defined to be zero, which meant we ignored
the DMA mask for IDE and SCSI transfers. This is wrong - we have
no DMA translation hardware. We want to obey DMA masks so that the
block layer performs bouncing itself.
