2005-10-30[PATCH] fix missing includesTim Schmielau
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

2005-10-30[PATCH] hpet: use HPET physical addresses for dup. detectionRandy Dunlap
- Use HPET physical address to detect duplicates, not logical addresses.

2005-10-30[PATCH] hpet: allow shared interruptsClemens Ladisch
This patch adds support for shared HPET interrupts. The driver previously acknowledged interrupts for both edge and level interrupts, but didn't actually allow a shared interrupt in the latter case. We use a new per-timer flag to save whether the timer's interrupt might be shared, and use it to do the processing required for level interrupts only if necessary.

2005-10-30[PATCH] HPET: make frequency calculations 32 bit safeClemens Ladisch
On 32-bit architectures, the multiplication in the argument for hpet_time_div() often overflows. In the typical case of a 14.32 MHz timer, this happens when the desired frequency exceeds 61 Hz. To avoid this multiplication, we can precompute and store the hardware timer frequency, instead of the period, in the device structure, which leaves us with a simple division when computing the number of timer ticks. As a side effect, this also removes a theoretical bug where the timer interpolator's frequency would be computed as a 32-bit value even if the HPET frequency is greater than 2^32 Hz (the HPET spec allows up to 10 GHz).

2005-10-30[PATCH] hpet: disallow zero interrupt frequencyClemens Ladisch

2005-10-29[PATCH] ppc: make phys_mem_access_prot() work with pfns instead of addressesRoland Dreier
Change the phys_mem_access_prot() function to take a pfn instead of an address. This allows mmap64() to work on /dev/mem for addresses above 4G on 32-bit architectures. We start with a pfn in mmap_mem(), so there's no need to convert to an address; in fact, it's actively bad, since the conversion can overflow when the address is above 4G. Similarly fix the ppc32 page_is_ram() function to avoid a conversion to an address by directly comparing to max_pfn. Working with max_pfn instead of high_memory fixes page_is_ram() to give the right answer for highmem pages.

2005-10-28[PATCH] DRIVER MODEL: Get rid of the obsolete tri-level suspend/resume callbacksRussell King
In PM v1, all devices were called at SUSPEND_DISABLE level. Then all devices were called at SUSPEND_SAVE_STATE level, and finally SUSPEND_POWER_DOWN level. However, with PM v2, to maintain compatibility for platform devices, I arranged for the PM v2 suspend/resume callbacks to call the old PM v1 suspend/resume callbacks three times with each level in order so that existing drivers continued to work. Since this is obsolete infrastructure which is no longer necessary, we can remove it. Here's an (untested) patch to do exactly that.
