This patch brings various acceleration improvements:
- set copyarea/fillrect for non-accelerated framebuffer (fix)
- remove 15 bpp depth handling to simplify code as it hardly
works (15 bpp handling was obviously missing in some switches)
- add fb_sync call and move waiting before accelerated function
to make acceleration more asynchronous to cpu (few % of speed
improvement)
- add cpu_relax() call in waiting loops
- make longer register names and name more registers
- move registers' definition to header
- general code improvements (shortening, simplifying)

Improved values for some registers after Xorg Trident driver. The main
problem was that values set by BIOS have been ignored.
This patch completely remove random pixels ("snow") on the TGUI 9680 and
9440 (not supported yet by the driver). It does not help with the "snow"
on 3DImage and Blade3D cards.
There is also small improvement in timing calculations (hblank start and
vblank start)

This updates <linux/bcd.h> to define the key routines as constant
functions, which the macros will then call. Newer code can now call
bcd2bin() instead of SCREAMING BCD2BIN() TO THE FOUR WINDS.
This lets each driver shrink their codespace by using N function calls to
a single (global) copy of those routines, instead of N inlined copies of
these functions per driver.
These routines aren't used in speed-critical code. Almost all callers are
in the RTC framework. Typical per-driver savings is near 300 bytes.

Remove implicit use of BKL in ioctl() from the RTC framework.
Instead, the rtc->ops_lock is used. That's the same lock that already
protects the RTC operations when they're issued through the exported
rtc_*() calls in drivers/rtc/interface.c ... making this a bugfix, not
just a cleanup, since both ioctl calls and set_alarm() need to update IRQ
enable flags and that implies a common lock (which RTC drivers as a rule
do not provide on their own).
A new comment at the declaration of "struct rtc_class_ops" summarizes
current locking rules. It's not clear to me that the exceptions listed
there should exist ... if not, those are pre-existing problems which can
be fixed in a patch that doesn't relate to BKL removal.

Currently, 'modalias' in the spi_device structure is a 'const char *'.
The spi_new_device() function fills in the modalias value from a passed in
spi_board_info data block. Since it is a pointer copy, the new spi_device
remains dependent on the spi_board_info structure after the new spi_device
is registered (no other fields in spi_device directly depend on the
spi_board_info structure; all of the other data is copied).
This causes a problem when dynamically propulating the list of attached
SPI devices. For example, in arch/powerpc, the list of SPI devices can be
populated from data in the device tree. With the current code, the device
tree adapter must kmalloc() a new spi_board_info structure for each new
SPI device it finds in the device tree, and there is no simple mechanism
in place for keeping track of these allocations.
This patch changes modalias from a 'const char *' to a fixed char array.
By copying the modalias string instead of referencing it, the dependency
on the spi_board_info structure is eliminated and an outside caller does
not need to maintain a separate spi_board_info allocation for each device.
If searched through the code to the best of my ability for any references
to modalias which may be affected by this change and haven't found
anything. It has been tested with the lite5200b platform in arch/powerpc.

This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.
The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and

This patch just extends the anon_inode_getfd interface to take an additional
parameter with a flag value. The flag value is passed on to
get_unused_fd_flags in anticipation for a use with the O_CLOEXEC flag.
No actual semantic changes here, the changed callers all pass 0 for now.

Some platforms do not have support to restore the signal mask in the
return path from a syscall. For those platforms syscalls like pselect are
not defined at all. This is, I think, not a good choice for paccept()
since paccept() adds more value on top of accept() than just the signal
mask handling.
Therefore this patch defines a scaled down version of the sys_paccept
function for those platforms. It returns -EINVAL in case the signal mask
is non-NULL but behaves the same otherwise.
Note that I explicitly included <linux/thread_info.h>. I saw that it is
currently included but indirectly two levels down. There is too much risk
in relying on this. The header might change and then suddenly the
function definition would change without anyone immediately noticing.

This patch is by far the most complex in the series. It adds a new syscall
paccept. This syscall differs from accept in that it adds (at the userlevel)
two additional parameters:
- a signal mask
- a flags value
The flags parameter can be used to set flag like SOCK_CLOEXEC. This is
imlpemented here as well. Some people argued that this is a property which
should be inherited from the file desriptor for the server but this is against
POSIX. Additionally, we really want the signal mask parameter as well
(similar to pselect, ppoll, etc). So an interface change in inevitable.
The flag value is the same as for socket and socketpair. I think diverging
here will only create confusion. Similar to the filesystem interfaces where
the use of the O_* constants differs, it is acceptable here.
The signal mask is handled as for pselect etc. The mask is temporarily
installed for the thread and removed before the call returns. I modeled the
code after pselect. If there is a problem it's likely also in pselect.
For architectures which use socketcall I maintained this interface instead of
adding a system call. The symmetry shouldn't be broken.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

This patch adds support for flag values which are ORed to the type passwd
to socket and socketpair. The additional code is minimal. The flag
values in this implementation can and must match the O_* flags. This
avoids overhead in the conversion.
The internal functions sock_alloc_fd and sock_map_fd get a new parameters
and all callers are changed.

Trying to compile the v850 port brings many compile errors, one of them exists
since at least kernel 2.6.19.
There also seems to be noone willing to bring this port back into a usable
state.
This patch therefore removes the v850 port.
If anyone ever decides to revive the v850 port the code will still be
available from older kernels, and it wouldn't be impossible for the port to
reenter the kernel if it would become actively maintained again.

ACPI defines a hardware signature. BIOS calculates the signature according to
hardware configure and if hardware changes while hibernated, the signature
will change. In that case, S4 resume should fail.
Still, there may be systems on which this mechanism does not work correctly,
so it is better to provide a workaround for them. For this reason, add a new
switch to the acpi_sleep= command line argument allowing one to disable
hardware signature checking.

When cap_bset suppresses some of the forced (fP) capabilities of a file,
it is generally only safe to execute the program if it understands how to
recognize it doesn't have enough privilege to work correctly. For legacy
applications (fE!=0), which have no non-destructive way to determine that
they are missing privilege, we fail to execute (EPERM) any executable that
requires fP capabilities, but would otherwise get pP' < fP. This is a
fail-safe permission check.
For some discussion of why it is problematic for (legacy) privileged
applications to run with less than the set of capabilities requested for
them, see:
http://userweb.kernel.org/~morgan/sendmail-capabilities-war-story.html
With this iteration of this support, we do not include setuid-0 based
privilege protection from the bounding set. That is, the admin can still
(ab)use the bounding set to suppress the privileges of a setuid-0 program.

We'd like to support CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE on s390, which depends on
CONFIG_MIGRATION. So far, CONFIG_MIGRATION is only available with NUMA
support.
This patch makes CONFIG_MIGRATION selectable for architectures that define
ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. When MIGRATION is enabled w/o NUMA, the
kernel won't compile because migrate_vmas() does not know about
vm_ops->migrate() and vma_migratable() does not know about policy_zone.
To fix this, those two functions can be restricted to '#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA'
because they are not being used w/o NUMA. vma_migratable() is moved over
from migrate.h to mempolicy.h.

Memory may be hot-removed on a per-memory-block basis, particularly on
POWER where the SPARSEMEM section size often matches the memory-block
size. A user-level agent must be able to identify which sections of
memory are likely to be removable before attempting the potentially
expensive operation. This patch adds a file called "removable" to the
memory directory in sysfs to help such an agent. In this patch, a memory
block is considered removable if;
o It contains only MOVABLE pageblocks
o It contains only pageblocks with free pages regardless of pageblock type
On the other hand, a memory block starting with a PageReserved() page will
never be considered removable. Without this patch, the user-agent is
forced to choose a memory block to remove randomly.
Sample output of the sysfs files:
./memory/memory0/removable: 0

On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:
u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);
always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.
The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK)
The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.
Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.
