This patch adds support for additional flags at spu_create, which relate
to the establishment of affinity between contexts and contexts to memory.
A fourth, optional, parameter is supported. This parameter represent
a affinity neighbor of the context being created, and is used when defining
SPU-SPU affinity.
Affinity is represented as a doubly linked list of spu_contexts.

Andrew Morton:
[async_memcpy] is very wrong if both ASYNC_TX_KMAP_DST and
ASYNC_TX_KMAP_SRC can ever be set. We'll end up using the same kmap
slot for both src add dest and we get either corrupted data or a BUG.
Evgeniy Polyakov:
Btw, shouldn't it always be kmap_atomic() even if flag is not set.
That pages are usual one returned by alloc_page().
So fix the usage of kmap_atomic and kill the ASYNC_TX_KMAP_DST and
ASYNC_TX_KMAP_SRC flags.

In most cases, when EH is scheduled, all in-flight commands are
aborted causing EH to kick in immediately. However, in some cases
(especially with PMP), it's unclear which commands are affected by the
error condition and although aborting all in-flight commands work, it
isn't optimal and may cause unnecessary disruption. On the other
hand, waiting for in-flight commands to drain themselves can take up
to 30seconds.
This patch implements EH fast drain to handle such situations. It
gives in-flight commands some time to finish up but doesn't wait for
too long. After EH is scheduled, fast drain timer is started and if
no other completion occurs in ATA_EH_FASTDRAIN_INTERVAL all in-flight
commands are aborted. If any completion occurred in the interval, the
port is given another interval to finish up itself.
Currently ATA_EH_FASTDRAIN_INTERVAL is 3 secs which should be enough
for finishing up most commands.

sata_down_spd_limit() first reads the current SPD from SStatus and
limit the speed to the lower one of one below the current limit or one
below the current SPD in SStatus. SPD may not be accessible or valid
when SPD down is requested making sata_down_spd_limit() fail when it's
most needed.
This patch makes the current SPD cached after each successful reset
and forces GEN I speed (1.5Gbps) if neither of SStatus or the cached
value is valid, so sata_down_spd_limit() is now guaranteed to lower
the speed limit if lower speed is available.

When an NCQ command fails, all commands in flight are aborted and the
offending one is reported using log page 10h. Depending on controller
characteristics and LLD implementation, all commands may appear as
having a device error due to shared TF status making it hard to
determine what's actually going on.
This patch adds AC_ERR_NCQ, marks the command reported by log page 10h
with it and print extra "<F>" after the error report for the command
to help distinguishing the offending command.

Requiring LLDs to format multiple error description messages properly
doesn't work too well. Help LLDs a bit by making ata_ehi_push_desc()
insert ", " on each invocation. __ata_ehi_push_desc() is the raw
version without the automatic separator.
While at it, make ehi_desc interface proper functions instead of

If we have two processes with different ioprio_class, but the same
ioprio_data, their async requests will fall into the same queue. I guess
such behavior is not expected, because it's not right to put real-time
requests and best-effort requests in the same queue.
The attached patch fixes the problem by introducing additional *cfqq
fields on cfqd, pointing to per-(class,priority) async queues.

BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them

When a CONFIG_USER_NS=n and a user tries to unshare some namespace other
than the user namespace, the dummy copy_user_ns returns NULL rather than
the old_ns.
This value then gets assigned to task->nsproxy->user_ns, so that a
subsequent setuid, which uses task->nsproxy->user_ns, causes a NULL
pointer deref.
Fix this by returning old_ns.

Provides a way for NMI reported errors on x86 to notify the EDAC
subsystem pending ECC errors by writing to a software state variable.
Here's the reworked patch. I added an EDAC stub to the kernel so we can
have variables that are in the kernel even if EDAC is a module. I also
implemented the idea of using the chip driver to select error detection
mode via module parameter and eliminate the kernel compile option.
Please review/test. Thx!
Also, I only made changes to some of the chipset drivers since I am
unfamiliar with the other ones. We can add similar changes as we go.

lguest is a simple hypervisor for Linux on Linux. Unlike kvm it doesn't need
VT/SVM hardware. Unlike Xen it's simply "modprobe and go". Unlike both, it's
5000 lines and self-contained.
Performance is ok, but not great (-30% on kernel compile). But given its
hackability, I expect this to improve, along with the paravirt_ops code which
it supplies a complete example for. There's also a 64-bit version being
worked on and other craziness.
But most of all, lguest is awesome fun! Too much of the kernel is a big ball
of hair. lguest is simple enough to dive into and hack, plus has some warts
which scream "fork me!".

This is the code and headers required to make an i386 kernel an lguest guest.
