The zonelist patches caused the loop that checks for available

Receiving packets while we are cleaning up a network namespace is a
racy proposition. It is possible when the packet arrives that we have
removed some but not all of the state we need to fully process it. We
have the choice of either playing wack-a-mole with the cleanup routines
or simply dropping packets when we don't have a network namespace to
handle them.
Since the check looks inexpensive in netif_receive_skb let's just
drop the incoming packets.

Vast majority of these build failures are gcc-4.3 warnings
about static functions and objects being referenced from
non-static (read: "extern inline") functions, in conjunction
with our -Werror.
We cannot just convert "extern inline" to "static inline",
as people keep suggesting all the time, because "extern inline"
logic is crucial for generic kernel build.
So
- just make sure that all callees of critical "extern inline"
functions are also "extern inline";
- use "static inline", wherever it's possible.
traps.c: work around gcc-4.3 being too smart about array
bounds-checking.
TODO: add "gnu_inline" attribute to all our "extern inline"
functions to ensure desired behaviour with future compilers.

With built-in scsi disk driver, the final link fails with a following
error:
`.exit.text' referenced in section `.rodata' of drivers/built-in.o:
defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of drivers/built-in.o
This happens with -Os (CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y) with all gcc-4
versions, and also with -O2 and gcc-4.3.
The problem is in sd.c:sd_major() being inlined into __exit function
exit_sd(), and the compiler generating a jump table in .rodata section
for the 'switch' statement in sd_major(). So we have references to
discarded section.
Fixed with a big hammer in the form of -fno-jump-tables.
Note that jump tables vs. discarded sections is a generic problem,
other architectures are just lucky not to suffer from it. But with
a slightly more complex switch/case statement it can be reproduced
on x86 as well. So maybe at some point we should consider
-fno-jump-tables as a generic compile option...

To calculate addresses of locally defined variables, GCC uses 32-bit
displacement from the GP. Which doesn't work for per cpu variables in
modules, as an offset to the kernel per cpu area is way above 4G.
The workaround is to force allocation of a GOT entry for per cpu variable
using ldq instruction with a 'literal' relocation.
I had to use custom asm/percpu.h, as a required argument magic doesn't
work with asm-generic/percpu.h macros.

The inline assembly in drivers/watchdog/hpwdt.c was incredibly broken,
and included all the function prologue and epilogue stuff, even though
it was itself then inside a C function where the compiler would add its
own prologue and epilogue on top of it all.
This then just _happened_ to work if you had exactly the right compiler
version and exactly the right compiler flags, so that gcc just happened
to not create any prologue at all (the gcc-generated epilogue wouldn't
matter, since it would never be reached).
But the more proper way to fix it is to simply not do this. Move the
inline asm to the top level, with no surrounding function at all (the
better alternative would be to remove the prologue and make it actually
use proper description of the arguments to the inline asm, but that's a
bigger change than the one I'm willing to make right now).

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki and Oleg Nesterov point out that since the commit
557ed1fa2620dc119adb86b34c614e152a629a80 ("remove ZERO_PAGE") removed
the ZERO_PAGE from the VM mappings, any users of get_user_pages() will
generally now populate the VM with real empty pages needlessly.
We used to get the ZERO_PAGE when we did the "handle_mm_fault()", but
since fault handling no longer uses ZERO_PAGE for new anonymous pages,
we now need to handle that special case in follow_page() instead.
In particular, the removal of ZERO_PAGE effectively removed the core
file writing optimization where we would skip writing pages that had not
been populated at all, and increased memory pressure a lot by allocating
all those useless newly zeroed pages.
This reinstates the optimization by making the unmapped PTE case the
same as for a non-existent page table, which already did this correctly.
While at it, this also fixes the XIP case for follow_page(), where the
caller could not differentiate between the case of a page that simply
could not be used (because it had no "struct page" associated with it)
and a page that just wasn't mapped.
We do that by simply returning an error pointer for pages that could not
be turned into a "struct page *". The error is arbitrarily picked to be
EFAULT, since that was what get_user_pages() already used for the
equivalent IO-mapped page case.
[ Also removed an impossible test for pte_offset_map_lock() failing:
that's not how that function works ]

General Software writes their own VSA2 module for their version

runqueue
This patch corrects the incorrect value of per process run-queue wait
time reported by delay statistics. The anomaly was due to the following
reason. When a process leaves the CPU and immediately starts waiting for
CPU on the runqueue (which means it remains in the TASK_RUNNABLE state),
the time of re-entry into the run-queue is never recorded. Due to this,
the waiting time on the runqueue from this point of re-entry upto the
next time it hits the CPU is not accounted for. This is solved by
recording the time of re-entry of a process leaving the CPU in the
sched_info_depart() function IF the process will go back to waiting on
the run-queue. This IF condition is verified by checking whether the
process is still in the TASK_RUNNABLE state.
The patch was tested on 2.6.26-rc6 using two simple CPU hog programs.
The values noted prior to the fix did not account for the time spent on
the runqueue waiting. After the fix, the correct values were reported
back to user space.

LM75 sensor reading bugfix: never save error status as valid

It has been reported that the abituguru3 driver fails to load after a BIOS
update. This patch fixes this by loosening the detection routine so that it
will work after the BIOS update too. To compensate for the now very loose
detection an additional check is added on the DMI Base Board vendor string to
make sure we only load on Abit motherboards, this is the same as the check in
the abituguru (1 / 2) driver.

data->max_duty_at_overheat is not updated in adt7473_update_device,
so it might be used before it is initialized (if the user reads from
sysfs file max_duty_at_crit before writing to it.)
