2006-10-09[PATCH] x86_64 irq: Scream but don't die if we receive an unexpected irqEric W. Biederman
Due to code bugs or misbehaving hardware it is possible that we can receive an interrupt that we have not mapped into a linux irq. Calling BUG when that happens is very rude, and if the problem is mild enough prevents anything else from getting done. So instead of calling BUG just scream loudly about the problem and continue running. We don't have enough knowledge to know which interrupt triggered this behavior so we don't acknowledge it. This will likely prevent a recurrence of the problem by jamming up the works with an unacknowledged interrupt. If the interrupt was something important it is quite possible that nothing productive will happen past this point. But it is now at least possible to keep working if the kernel can survive without the interrupt we dropped on the floor. Solutions like irqpoll should generally make dropped irqs non-fatal.

2006-10-09[PATCH] Introduce vfs_listxattrBill Nottingham
This patch moves code out of fs/xattr.c:listxattr into a new function - vfs_listxattr. The code for vfs_listxattr was originally submitted by Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com> to Unionfs. Sorry about that. The reason for this submission is to make the listxattr code in fs/xattr.c a little cleaner (as well as to clean up some code in Unionfs.) Currently, Unionfs has vfs_listxattr defined in its code. I think that's very ugly, and I'd like to see it (re)moved. The logical place to put it, is along side of all the other vfs_*xattr functions. Overall, I think this patch is benefitial for both kernel.org kernel and Unionfs.
