d0fae18f1b md: clean up irregularity with raid autodetect
When a raid1 array is stopped, all components currently get added to the list
for auto-detection.  However we should really only add components that were
found by autodetection in the first place.  So add a flag to record that
information, and use it.

8311c29d40 md: reduce CPU wastage on idle md array with a write-intent bitmap
On an md array with a write-intent bitmap, a thread wakes up every few seconds
and scans the bitmap looking for work to do.  If the array is idle, there will
be no work to do, but a lot of scanning is done to discover this.

So cache the fact that the bitmap is completely clean, and avoid scanning the
whole bitmap when the cache is known to be clean.

3715863aa1 iommu: export iommu_is_span_boundary helper function
iommu_is_span_boundary is used internally in the IOMMU helper
(lib/iommu-helper.c), a primitive function that judges whether a memory area
spans LLD's segment boundary or not.

It's difficult to convert some IOMMUs to use the IOMMU helper but
iommu_is_span_boundary is still useful for them.  So this patch exports it.

This is needed for the parisc iommu fixes.

8289546e57 memcg: remove mem_cgroup_uncharge
Nothing uses mem_cgroup_uncharge apart from mem_cgroup_uncharge_page, (a
trivial wrapper around it) and mem_cgroup_end_migration (which does the same
as mem_cgroup_uncharge_page).  And it often ends up having to lock just to let
its caller unlock.  Remove it (but leave the silly locking until a later
patch).

Moved mem_cgroup_cache_charge next to mem_cgroup_charge in memcontrol.h.

9442ec9df4 memcg: bad page if page_cgroup when free
Replace free_hot_cold_page's VM_BUG_ON(page_get_page_cgroup(page)) by a "Bad
page state" and clear: most users don't have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM on, and if it
were set here, it'd likely cause corruption when the page is reused.

Don't use page_assign_page_cgroup to clear it: that should be private to
memcontrol.c, and always called with the lock taken; and memmap_init_zone
doesn't need it either - like page->mapping and other pointers throughout the
kernel, Linux assumes pointers in zeroed structures are NULL pointers.

Instead use page_reset_bad_cgroup, added to memcontrol.h for this only.

5cba6d22e3 ndelay(): switch to C function to avoid 64-bit division
We should be able to do ndelay(some_u64), but that can cause a call to
__divdi3() to be emitted because the ndelay() macros does a divide.

Fix it by switching to static inline which will force the u64 arg to be
treated as an unsigned long.  udelay() takes an unsigned long arg.

Add a <linux/gpio.h> defining fail/warn stubs for GPIO calls on platforms that
don't support the GPIO programming interface.  That includes the arch-specific
implementation glue otherwise.

This facilitates a new model for GPIO usage: drivers that can use GPIOs if
they're available, but don't require them.  One example of such a driver is
NAND driver for various FreeScale chips.  On platforms update with GPIO
support, they can be used instead of a worst-case delay to verify that the
BUSY signal is off.

(Also includes a couple minor unrelated doc updates.)

90a1ba0c5e PCI: Add DECLARE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE macro
The definitions of struct pci_device_id arrays should generally follow
the same pattern across the entire kernel.  This macro defines this
array as const and puts it into the __devinitconst section.

There are currently many definitions scattered about the kernel that
omit the __devinitdata modifier despite the documentation stating that
it should always be there.  These definitions really also should have
been const, which wasn't possible before but has become so with the
addition of the __devinitconst attribute.

Furthermore, there are definitions that use "const" and __devinitdata,
which is explicitly wrong but the compiler doesn't catch section
mismatches if there's only one such one case in the module (which is
often the case).

Adding the __devinitconst modifier where there was nothing before buys
us memory.  Adding the const modifier gives the compiler a chance to do
its thing.  Changing __devinitdata to __devinitconst where it was wrong
actually fixes some compiler errors in older (mid-release) kernels that
were patched over by "removing" the section attribute altogether (which
wastes memory).

This macro makes it pretty difficult to get this definition wrong in
the future...

a6cd6322d5 [IA64] Fix irq migration in multiple vector domain
Fix the problem that the following error message is sometimes displayed
at irq migration when vector domain is enabled.

    "Unexpected interrupt vector %d on CPU %d is not mapped to any IRQ!"

The cause of this problem is an interrupt is sent to the previous
target CPU after cleaning up vector to irq mapping table. To clean up
vector to irq map on the previous target CPU safty, change the irq
migration in multiple vector domain as follows. The original idea is
from x86 interrupt management code.

    - Delay vector to irq table cleanup until the interrupts are sent
      to new target CPUs. By this, it is ensured that target CPU is
      completely changed on the interrupt controller side.

    - Even after the interrupts are sent to new target CPUs, there can
      be pended interrupts remaining on the previous target CPU. So we
      need to delay clearning up vector to irq table until the pended
      interrupt is handled. For this, send IPI to the previous target
      CPU with lower priority vector and clean up vector to irq table
      in its handler.

This patch affects only to irq migration code with multiple vector
domain is enabled.

  sched: group scheduler, fix fairness of cpu bandwidth allocation for task groups

Namely:
 - very frequent wakeups on SMP, reported by PowerTop users.
 - cacheline trashing on (large) SMP
 - some latencies larger than 500ms

While there is a mergeable patch to fix the latter, the former issues
are not fixable in a manner suitable for .25 (we're at -rc3 now).

Hence we revert them and try again in v2.6.26.

e3790c7d42 block: separate out padding from alignment
Block layer alignment was used for two different purposes - memory
alignment and padding.  This causes problems in lower layers because
drivers which only require memory alignment ends up with adjusted
rq->data_len.  Separate out padding such that padding occurs iff
driver explicitly requests it.

7a85f8896f block: restore the meaning of rq->data_len to the true data length
The meaning of rq->data_len was changed to the length of an allocated
buffer from the true data length. It breaks SG_IO friends and
bsg. This patch restores the meaning of rq->data_len to the true data
length and adds rq->extra_len to store an extended length (due to
drain buffer and padding).

This patch also removes the code to update bio in blk_rq_map_user
introduced by the commit 40b01b9bbd.
The commit adjusts bio according to memory alignment
(queue_dma_alignment). However, memory alignment is NOT padding
alignment. This adjustment also breaks SG_IO friends and bsg. Padding
alignment needs to be fixed in a proper way (by a separate patch).

This reverts commit cded932b75.

Arjan bisected down a boot-time hang to this, saying:
  ".. it prevents the kernel to finish booting on my (Penryn based)
   laptop.  The boot stops right after freeing the init memory."

and while it's not clear exactly what triggers it, at this stage we're
better off just reverting it while Ingo tries to figure out what went
wrong.

674eea0fc4 KVM: Make the supported cpuid list a host property rather than a vm property
One of the use cases for the supported cpuid list is to create a "greatest
common denominator" of cpu capabilities in a server farm.  As such, it is
useful to be able to get the list without creating a virtual machine first.

Since the code does not depend on the vm in any way, all that is needed is
to move it to the device ioctl handler.  The capability identifier is also
changed so that binaries made against -rc1 will fail gracefully.
