The code for using the radix tree for reverse mapping of interrupts has
a typo that causes it to create incorrect mappings if the software and
hardware numbers happen to be different. This would, among others, cause
the IDE interrupt to fail on js20's. This fixes it.

- On archs that have no-exec support, we vmalloc() a executable scratch
area of PAGE_SIZE and divide it up into an array of slots of maximum
instruction size for that arch
- On a kprobe registration, the original instruction is copied to the
first available free slot, so if multiple kprobes are registered, chances
are, they get contiguous slots
- On POWER4, due to not having coherent icaches, we could hit a situation
where a probe that is registered on one processor, is hit immediately on
another. This second processor could have fetched the stream of text from
the out-of-line single-stepping area *before* the probe registration
completed, possibly due to an earlier (and a different) kprobe hit and
hence would see stale data at the slot.
Executing such an arbitrary instruction lead to a problem as reported
in LTC bugzilla 23555.
The correct solution is to call flush_icache_range() as soon as the
instruction is copied for out-of-line single-stepping, so the correct
instruction is seen on all processors.
Thanks to Will Schmidt who tracked this down.

In the case of a system hang, the user will invoke soft-reset to
initiate the kdump boot. If xmon is enabled, the CPU(s) enter into the
xmon debugger. Unfortunately, the secondary CPU(s) will return to the
hung state when they exit from the debugger (returned from die() ->
system_reset_exception()). This causes a problem in kdump since the
hung CPU(s) will not respond to the IPI sent from kdump. This patch
fixes the issue by calling crash_kexec_secondary() directly from
system_reset_exception() without returning to the previous state. These
secondary CPUs wait 5ms until the kdump boot is started by the primary
CPU. In the case we exited from the debugger to "recover" (command 'x'
in xmon) the primary and the secondary CPUs will all return from die()
-> system_reset_exception() ->crash_kexec_secondary() wait 5ms, then
return to the previous state. A kdump boot is not started in this case.

We should not be calling power4_enable_pmcs() in
pseries_lpar_enable_pmcs(); just doing the hypercall is sufficient.
Prior to 2.6.15 we did not call power4_enable_pmcs() for an lpar.
power4_enable_pmcs() tries to read the hid0 register which is no
longer legal for an lpar in newer Power processors.

While busy-waiting for completion, check the hardware after scheduling;
don't schedule and then immediately check the _timeout_. If the yield()
took a long time (as it does on my OLPC prototype board when it's busy),
we'd report a timeout even though the hardware was now ready.
This fixes it, and also switches the yield() for a cond_resched() because
we don't actually want to be _that_ nice about it. I see nice
tightly-packed SMBus transactions now, rather than waiting for milliseconds
between successive phases.
Actually, we shouldn't be busy-waiting here at all. We should be using
interrupts. That's an exercise for another day though.

I saw an oops down this path when trying to create a new file on a UDF
filesystem which was internally marked as readonly, but mounted rw:
udf_create
udf_new_inode
new_inode
alloc_inode
udf_alloc_inode
udf_new_block
returns EIO due to readonlyness
iput (on error)
udf_put_inode
udf_discard_prealloc
udf_next_aext
udf_current_aext
udf_get_fileshortad
OOPS
the udf_discard_prealloc() path was examining uninitialized fields of the
udf inode.
udf_discard_prealloc() already has this code to short-circuit the discard
path if no extents are preallocated:
if (UDF_I_ALLOCTYPE(inode) == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB ||
inode->i_size == UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode))
{
return;
}
so if we initialize UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode) = 0 earlier in udf_new_inode,
we won't try to free the (not) preallocated blocks, since this will match
the i_size = 0 set when the inode was initialized.

A patch in -mm kernel correct the parsing of "address resources" of pnpacpi.
Before we assumed it was memory only, but it could be also IO.
But this change show an hidden bug : some resources could be producer type
that are not handled by pnp layer. So we should ignore the producer
resources.
This patch fixes bug 6292 (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6292).
Some devices like PNP0A03 have 0xd00-0xffff and 0x0-0xcf7 as IO producer
resources.
Before correcting "address resources" parsing, it was seen as memory and was
harmless, because nobody tried to reserve this memory range as it should be
IO.
With the correction it become IO resources, and make failed all others device
that want to register IO in this range and use pnp layer (like a ISA sound
card).
The solution is to ignore producer resources

reiserfs_write_full_page does zero bytes in the file past eof, but it may
call get_block on those buffers as well. On machines where the page size
is larger than the blocksize, this can result in mmaped files incorrectly
growing up to a block boundary during writepage.
The fix is to avoid calling get_block for any blocks that are entirely past
eof

This patch is for collision check enhancement for memory hot add.
It's better to do resouce collision check before doing memory hot add,
which will touch memory management structures.
And add_section() should check section exists or not before calling
sparse_add_one_section(). (sparse_add_one_section() will do another
check anyway. but checking in memory_hotplug.c will be easy to understand.)

In bugzilla #6941, Jens Kilian reported:
"The function befs_utf2nls (in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c) writes a 0 byte past the
end of a block of memory allocated via kmalloc(), leading to memory
corruption. This happens only for filenames which are pure ASCII and a
multiple of 4 bytes in length. [...]
Without DEBUG_SLAB, this leads to further corruption and hard lockups; I
believe this is the bug which has made kernels later than 2.6.8 unusable
for me. (This must be due to changes in memory management, the bug has
been in the BeFS driver since the time it was introduced (AFAICT).)
Steps to reproduce:
Create a directory (in BeOS, naturally :-) with files named, e.g.,
"1", "22", "333", "4444", ... Mount it in Linux and do an "ls" or "find""

cache
If we don't find the item we are lookng for, we allocate a new one, and
then grab the lock again and search to see if it has been added while we
did the alloc. If it had been added we need to 'cache_put' the newly
created item that we are never going to use. But as it hasn't been
initialised properly, putting it can cause an oops.
So move the ->init call earlier to that it will always be fully initilised
if we have to put it.
Thanks to Philipp Matthias Hahn <pmhahn@svs.Informatik.Uni-Oldenburg.de>
for reporting the problem.

The POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE hint means "the application will use this range of the
file a single time". It seems to be intended that the implementation will use
this hint to perform drop-behind of that part of the file when the application
gets around to reading or writing it.
However for reasons which aren't obvious (or sane?) I mapped
POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE onto POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED. ie: it does readahead.
That's daft. So for now, make POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE a no-op.
This is a non-back-compatible change. If someone was using POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE
to perform readahead, they lose. The likelihood is low.
If/when we later implement POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE things will get interesting - to
do it fully we'll need to maintain file offset/length ranges and peform all
sorts of complex tricks, and managing the lifetime of those ranges' data
structures will be interesting..
A sensible implementation would probably ignore the file range and would
simply mark the entire file as needing some form of drop-behind treatment.

- fix up the start up sequence.
This new sequence allow you to correctly enable the LCD controller
even if the bootloader has already did it.
- fix up a wrong indentation issue.

Fix "info->var.rotate" data settings.
This info should be deduced directly from "fbdev->panel->control_base"
defined into au1100fb.h.

Reported by: Dave Jones
Whilst printk'ing to both console and serial console, I got this...
(2.6.18rc1)
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/sched.c:4438
in_atomic():0, irqs_disabled():1
Call Trace:

This can occur when release_console_sem() is called but the log
buffer still has contents that need to be flushed. The console drivers
are called while the console_may_schedule flag is still true. The
might_sleep() is triggered when fbcon calls console_conditional_schedule().
Fix by setting console_may_schedule to zero earlier, before the call to the
console drivers.
