This allows for optional alternative implementations of __copy_to_user
and __clear_user, with a possible runtime fallback to the standard
version when the alternative provides no gain over that standard
version. This is done by making the standard __copy_to_user into a weak
alias for the symbol __copy_to_user_std. Same thing for __clear_user.
Those two functions are particularly good candidates to have alternative
implementations for, since they rely on the STRT instruction which has
lower performances than STM instructions on some CPU cores such as
the ARM1176 and Marvell Feroceon.

Small change (mostly formatting) to limit lookup based open calls to
file create only.
After discussion yesteday on samba-technical about the posix lookup
regression, and looking at a problem with cifs posix open to one
particular Samba version, Jeff and JRA realized that Samba server's
behavior changed in this area (posix open behavior on files vs.
directories). To make this behavior consistent, JRA just made a
fix to Samba server to alter how it handles open of directories (now
returning the equivalent of EISDIR instead of success). Since we don't
know at lookup time whether the inode is a directory or file (and
thus whether posix open will succeed with most current Samba server),
this change avoids the posix open code on lookup open (just issues
posix open on creates). This gets the semantic benefits we want
(atomicity, posix byte range locks, improved write semantics on newly
created files) and file create still is fast, and we avoid the problem
that Jeff noticed yesterday with "openat" (and some open directory
calls) of non-cached directories to one version of Samba server, and
will work with future Samba versions (which include the fix jra just
pushed into Samba server). I confirmed this approach with jra
yesterday and with Shirish today.
Posix open is only called (at lookup time) for file create now.
For opens (rather than creates), because we do not know if it
is a file or directory yet, and current Samba no longer allows
us to do posix open on dirs, we could end up wasting an open call
on what turns out to be a dir. For file opens, we wait to call posix
open till cifs_open. It could be added here (lookup) in the future
but the performance tradeoff of the extra network request when EISDIR
or EACCES is returned would have to be weighed against the 50%
reduction in network traffic in the other paths.

Instead of queuing IPMB messages before channel initialization, just

It is possible for ide-cd to ignore ide_error()'s return value under
some circumstances. Workaround it in ide_intr() and ide_timer_expiry()
by checking if there is a device/port reset pending currently.

Since 2.6.26 we support UDMA66 on ATAPI devices requiring IVB quirk:
commit 8588a2b732
("ide: add SH-S202J to ivb_list[]")
We also later added support for more such devices in:
commit e97564f362
("ide: More TSST drives with broken cable detection")
and in:
commit 3ced5c49bd
("ide: add TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S202H to ivb_list[]")
It turns out that such devices lack cable detection altogether
(which in turn results in incorrect detection of 40-wire cables
by our current cable detection strategy) so always handle them
by trusting host-side cable detection only.

Model detection fixup from Martin.

The address range size calculation inside local_flush_tlb_kernel_range()
is being truncated by a too small size variable holder on 64-bit systems.
The truncated size can result in an erroneous tlbsize check that means we
sit spinning inside a loop trying to flush a hige number of TLB entries.
This is for all intents and purposes a system hang. Fix by using an
appropriately sized valiable to hold the size.
[Ralf: Greg's original patch submission identified the issue and fixed one

I also modified tlb-r3k.c even though that file is only used on 32-bit.]
