<title>[PATCH] headers_check: remove &lt;asm/timex.h&gt; from user export</title>

There's useful stuff in &lt;linux/timex.h&gt; but &lt;asm/timex.h&gt; has nothing for
userspace.  Stop exporting it, and include it only from within the existing
#ifdef __KERNEL__ part of &lt;linux/timex.h&gt;

This fixes a 'make headers_check' failure on i386 because asm-i386/timex.h
includes both asm-i386/tsc.h and asm-i386/processor.h, neither of which are
exported to userspace.  It's not entirely clear _why_ it includes either of
these, but it does.

There's no excuse for userspace abusing this kernel header -- the kernel's
headers are not intended to provide a library of helper routines for
userspace.  Using &lt;asm/io.h&gt; from userspace is broken on most architectures
anyway.  Just say 'no'.

This isn't suitable for userspace to see -- the kernel headers are not a
random library of stuff for userspace; they're only there to define the
kernel&lt;-&gt;user ABI for system libraries and tools.  Anything which _was_
abusing asm/atomic.h from userspace was probably broken anyway -- as it often
didn't even give atomic operation.

<title>[PATCH] lockdep: better lock debugging</title>

Generic lock debugging:

 - generalized lock debugging framework. For example, a bug in one lock
   subsystem turns off debugging in all lock subsystems.

 - got rid of the caller address passing (__IP__/__IP_DECL__/etc.) from
   the mutex/rtmutex debugging code: it caused way too much prototype
   hackery, and lockdep will give the same information anyway.

 - ability to do silent tests

 - check lock freeing in vfree too.

 - more finegrained debugging options, to allow distributions to
   turn off more expensive debugging features.

There's no separate 'held mutexes' list anymore - but there's a 'held locks'
stack within lockdep, which unifies deadlock detection across all lock
classes.  (this is independent of the lockdep validation stuff - lockdep first
checks whether we are holding a lock already)

Here are the current debugging options:

CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y

which do:

 config DEBUG_MUTEXES
          bool "Mutex debugging, basic checks"

 config DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
         bool "Detect incorrect freeing of live mutexes"
