f0f32fccbf [PATCH] x86-64: no paravirt for X86_VOYAGER or X86_VISWS
Since Voyager and Visual WS already define ARCH_SETUP,
it looks like PARAVIRT shouldn't be offered for them.

306a22c2a2 [PATCH] i386: Fix io_apic.c warning
gcc 4.2 warns

linux/arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c: In function ‘create_irq’:

The warning is false, but somewhat legitimate so work around it.

7e74437cf6 [PATCH] i386: export smp_num_siblings for oprofile
oprofile uses smp_num_siblings without testing for CONFIG_X86_HT.
I looked at modifying oprofile, but this way is cleaner & simpler
and I didn't see a good reason not to just export it when CONFIG_SMP.

1bac3b383a [PATCH] x86: Work around gcc 4.2 over aggressive optimizer
The new PDA code uses a dummy _proxy_pda variable to describe
memory references to the PDA. It is never referenced
in inline assembly, but exists as input/output arguments.
gcc 4.2 in some cases can CSE references to this which causes
unresolved symbols.  Define it to zero to avoid this.

92715e282b [PATCH] x86: Fix boot hang due to nmi watchdog init code
2.6.19  stopped booting (or booted based on build/config) on our x86_64
systems due to a bug introduced in 2.6.19.  check_nmi_watchdog schedules an
IPI on all cpus to  busy wait on a flag, but fails to set the busywait
flag if NMI functionality is disabled.  This causes the secondary cpus
to spin in an endless loop, causing the kernel bootup to hang.
Depending upon the build, the  busywait flag got overwritten (stack variable)
and caused  the kernel to bootup on certain builds.  Following patch fixes
the bug by setting the busywait flag before returning from check_nmi_watchdog.
I guess using a stack variable is not good here as the calling function could
potentially return while the busy wait loop is still spinning on the flag.

AK: I redid the patch significantly to be cleaner

606d099cdd [PATCH] tty: switch to ktermios
This is the grungy swap all the occurrences in the right places patch that
goes with the updates.  At this point we have the same functionality as
before (except that sgttyb() returns speeds not zero) and are ready to
begin turning new stuff on providing nobody reports lots of bugs

If you are a tty driver author converting an out of tree driver the only
impact should be termios->ktermios name changes for the speed/property
setting functions from your upper layers.

If you are implementing your own TCGETS function before then your driver
was broken already and its about to get a whole lot more painful for you so
please fix it 8)

Also fill in c_ispeed/ospeed on init for most devices, although the current
code will do this for you anyway but I'd like eventually to lose that extra
paranoia

f0d1b0b30d [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:

	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64

These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

	int do_something(long q)
	{
		...;
		y = ilog2(x)
		...;
	}

Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

	unsigned n = ilog2(27);

When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.

When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

e182c965b6 [PATCH] UML: add generic BUG support
The BUG changes in -mm3 need some arch support.  This patch adds the UML
support needed.  For the most part, it was stolen from the underlying
architecture.  The exception is the kernel eip < PAGE_OFFSET test, which is
wrong for skas mode UMLs.

c31a0bf3e1 [PATCH] Generic BUG for x86-64
This makes x86-64 use the generic BUG machinery.

The main advantage in using the generic BUG machinery for x86-64 is that
the inlined overhead of BUG is just the ud2a instruction; the file+line
information are no longer inlined into the instruction stream.  This
reduces cache pollution.

91768d6c2b [PATCH] Generic BUG for i386
This makes i386 use the generic BUG machinery.  There are no functional
changes from the old i386 implementation.

The main advantage in using the generic BUG machinery for i386 is that the
inlined overhead of BUG is just the ud2a instruction; the file+line(+function)
information are no longer inlined into the instruction stream.  This reduces
cache pollution, and makes disassembly work properly.

24ec839c43 [PATCH] tty: ->signal->tty locking
Fix the locking of signal->tty.

Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used
by most other members of ->signal/->sighand.  And unless we are 'current'
or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway.

(NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules)

Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding
tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid.  Otherwise the lifetime of ttys
are governed by their open file handles.  This leaves some holes for tty
access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access).

It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing.

(NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to
       be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think
       it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info
       invocations)

d93f7de8c5 [PATCH] m32r: bootloader support for OPSPUT platform
This patch supports "m32r-g00ff" bootloader for an OPSPUT platform.

Applying this patch, it is possible to do ATA-boot from an IDE drive or
HTTP-boot from network by m32r-g00ff.

    * arch/m32r/boot/compressed/m32r_sio.c: Fix hangup on OPSPUT at boot.

    * arch/m32r/kernel/io_opsput.c: IDE support for OPSPUT.
    * arch/m32r/kernel/setup_opsput.c: ditto.
    * include/asm-m32r/ide.h: ditto.
