Some transmit side small fixes:
* When computing number of list elements per transmit, do full

* Change stop test to match wake condition.

This reverts commit 1b0997f561bf46689cc6e0903f342e9bf2506bf1, which in
turn reverted 34ea80ec6a02ad02e6b9c75c478c18e5880d6713 (which is thus
re-instated).
Quoth James Bottomley:
"All it's doing is deferring the device_put() from the
scsi_put_command() to after the scsi_run_queue(), which doesn't fix
the sleep while atomic problem of the device release method. In both
cases we still get the semaphore in atomic context problem which is
caused by scsi_reap_target() doing a device_del(), which I assumed
(wrongly) was valid from atomic context."
who also promised to fix scsi_reap_target().

The raid5 stripe cache was recently changed from fixed size (NR_STRIPES) to
variable size (conf->max_nr_stripes). However there are two places that still
use the constant and as a result, reducing the size of the stripe cache can

This has been broken for months. On resume, we call acpi_pci_link_set()
with interrupts off, so we get a warning when we try to do a kmalloc of non
atomic memory. The actual allocation is just 2 long's (plus extra byte for
some reason I can't fathom), so a simple conversion to GFP_ATOMIC is
probably the safest way to fix this.
The error looks like this..

node's memory
Hitting BUG_ON() in __alloc_bootmem_core() when there is no free page
available in the first node's memory. For the case of kdump on PPC64
(Power 4 machine), the captured kernel is used two memory regions - memory
for TCE tables (tce-base and tce-size at top of RAM and reserved) and
captured kernel memory region (crashk_base and crashk_size). Since we
reserve the memory for the first node, we should be returning from
__alloc_bootmem_core() to search for the next node (pg_dat).
Currently, find_next_zero_bit() is returning the n^th bit (eidx) when there
is no free page. Then, test_bit() is failed since we set 0xff only for the
actual size initially (init_bootmem_core()) even though rounded up to one
page for bdata->node_bootmem_map. We are hitting the BUG_ON after failing
to enter second "for" loop.

I realized ZONE_DMA32 has a trivial bug at Kconfig for ia64. In
include/linux/gfp.h on 2.6.15-rc5-mm1, CONFIG is define like followings.
#ifdef CONFIG_DMA_IS_DMA32
#define __GFP_DMA32 ((__force gfp_t)0x01) /* ZONE_DMA is ZONE_DMA32
*/
:

So, CONFIG_"ZONE"_DMA_IS_DMA32 is clearly wrong.

allocation
The bd622663192e8ebebb27dc1d9397f352a82d2495 commit broke the UCB1x00
touchscreen driver since the idev structure was assumed to be into the ts
structure, simply casting the former to the later in a couple places.
This patch fixes those, and also cache the idev pointer between multiple
calls to input_report_abs() to avoid growing the compiled code needlessly.

The IPMI specifcation says the generator ID is 0x20, but that is for bits
7-1. Bit 0 is set to specify it is a software event. The correct value is
0x41. Without this fix, panic events written into the System Event Log

The below patch lets userspace have more control over the inodes that
inotify will watch. It introduces two new flags.
IN_ONLYDIR -- only watch the inode if it is a directory.
This is needed to avoid the race that can occur when we want to be
sure that we are watching a directory.
IN_DONT_FOLLOW -- don't follow a symlink. In combination
with IN_ONLYDIR we can make sure that we don't watch the target of
symlinks.
The issues the flags fix came up when writing the gnome-vfs inotify
backend. Default behaviour is unchanged.

This adds a timestamp field to the events sent via the process event
connector. The timestamp allows listeners to accurately account the
duration(s) between a process' events and offers strong means with which
to determine the order of events with respect to a given task while also
avoiding the addition of per-task data.
This alters the size and layout of the event structure and hence would
break compatibility if process events connector as it stands in 2.6.15-rc2
were released as a mainline kernel.

There are several functions that might seem appropriate for a timestamp:
get_cycles()
current_kernel_time()
do_gettimeofday()
<read jiffies/jiffies_64>
Each has problems with combinations of SMP-safety, low resolution, and
monotonicity. This patch adds a new function that returns a monotonic SMP-safe
timestamp with nanosecond resolution where available.
Changes:
Split timestamp into separate patch
Moved to kernel/time.c
Renamed to getnstimestamp
Fixed unintended-pointer-arithmetic bug

Commit f549d6c18c0e8e6cf1bf0e7a47acc1daf7e2cec1 introduced a generic
fallback for security xattrs, but appears to include a subtle bug.
Gentoo users with kernels with selinux compiled in, and coreutils compiled
with acl support, noticed that they could not copy files on tmpfs using
'cp'.
cp (compiled with acl support) copies the file, lists the extended
attributes on the old file, copies them all to the new file, and then
exits. However the listxattr() calls were failing with this odd behaviour:
llistxattr("a.out", (nil), 0) = 17
llistxattr("a.out", 0x7fffff8c6cb0, 17) = -1 ERANGE (Numerical result out of
range)
I believe this is a simple problem in the logic used to check the buffer
sizes; if the user sends a buffer the exact size of the data, then its ok
:)
This change solves the problem.

Accessing nohz_cpu_mask before incrementing rcp->cur is racy. It can cause

This introduces a new interface - rcu_barrier() which waits until all
the RCUs queued until this call have been completed.
Reiser4 needs this, because we do more than just freeing memory object
in our RCU callback: we also remove it from the list hanging off
super-block. This means, that before freeing reiser4-specific portion
of super-block (during umount) we have to wait until all pending RCU
callbacks are executed.
The only change of reiser4 made to the original patch, is exporting of
rcu_barrier().
