Jeremy Fitzhardinge e75eac33b5 [PATCH] Clean up and refactor i386 sub-architecture setup
Clean up and refactor i386 sub-architecture setup.

This change moves all the code from the
asm-i386/mach-*/setup_arch_pre/post.h headers, into
arch/i386/mach-*/setup.c.  mach-*/setup_arch_pre.h is renamed to
setup_arch.h, and contains only things which should be in header files.  It
is purely code-motion; there should be no functional changes at all.

Several functions in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c needed to be made non-static
so that they're visible to the code in mach-*/setup.c.  asm-i386/setup.h is
used to hold the prototypes for these functions.

Christoph Lameter 7b2259b3e5 [PATCH] page migration: Support a vma migration function
Hooks for calling vma specific migration functions

With this patch a vma may define a vma->vm_ops->migrate function.  That
function may perform page migration on its own (some vmas may not contain page
structs and therefore cannot be handled by regular page migration.  Pages in a
vma may require special preparatory treatment before migration is possible
etc) .  Only mmap_sem is held when the migration function is called.  The
migrate() function gets passed two sets of nodemasks describing the source and
the target of the migration.  The flags parameter either contains

MPOL_MF_MOVE	which means that only pages used exclusively by
		the specified mm should be moved

or

MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL which means that pages shared with other processes
		should also be moved.

The migration function returns 0 on success or an error condition.  An error
condition will prevent regular page migration from occurring.

On its own this patch cannot be included since there are no users for this
functionality.  But it seems that the uncached allocator will need this
functionality at some point.

Christoph Lameter 68402ddc67 [PATCH] mm: remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn_range and drop VM_SHM
Remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn range from device drivers and get rid of
VM_SHM.

remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO.  There is no need to set VM_SHM since
it does nothing.  VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not
place pages on the LRU.  The pages are therefore never subject to swap
anyways.  Remove all the vm_flags settings before calling remap_pfn_range.

After removing all the vm_flag settings no use of VM_SHM is left.  Drop it.

Daniel Jacobowitz 85fe068123 [ARM] 3648/1: Update struct ucontext layout for coprocessor registers
Patch from Daniel Jacobowitz

In order for userspace to find saved coprocessor registers, move them from
struct rt_sigframe into struct ucontext.  Also allow space for glibc's
sigset_t, so that userspace and kernelspace can use the same ucontext
layout.  Define the magic numbers for iWMMXt in the header file for easier
reference.  Include the size of the coprocessor data in the magic numbers.

Also define magic numbers and layout for VFP, not yet saved.

David S. Miller c2a5a46be4 [SPARC64]: Fix for Niagara memory corruption.
On some sun4v systems, after netboot the ethernet controller and it's
DMA mappings can be left active.  The net result is that the kernel
can end up using memory the ethernet controller will continue to DMA
into, resulting in corruption.

To deal with this, we are more careful about importing IOMMU
translations which OBP has left in the IO-TLB.  If the mapping maps
into an area the firmware claimed was free and available memory for
the kernel to use, we demap instead of import that IOMMU entry.

This is going to cause the network chip to take a PCI master abort on
the next DMA it attempts, if it has been left going like this.  All
tests show that this is handled properly by the PCI layer and the e1000
drivers.

Jens Axboe b31dc66a54 [PATCH] Kill PF_SYNCWRITE flag
A process flag to indicate whether we are doing sync io is incredibly
ugly. It also causes performance problems when one does a lot of async
io and then proceeds to sync it. Part of the io will go out as async,
and the other part as sync. This causes a disconnect between the
previously submitted io and the synced io. For io schedulers such as CFQ,
this will cause us lost merges and suboptimal behaviour in scheduling.

Remove PF_SYNCWRITE completely from the fsync/msync paths, and let
the O_DIRECT path just directly indicate that the writes are sync
by using WRITE_SYNC instead.

Split the checkpoint list of the transaction into two lists.  In the first
list we keep the buffers that need to be submitted for IO.  In the second
list are kept buffers that were already submitted and we just have to wait

lists a bit and can eventually be also a performance gain.

Brent Casavant f5befceb5c [PATCH] SGI IOC4: Detect IO card variant
There are three different IO cards which an SGI IOC4 controller may find
itself on.  One of these variants does not bring out the IDE and serial
signals, so we need to disable attaching the corresponding IOC4 subdrivers
to such cards.

Cleans up message clutter emitted during device probing.

Remove synchronize_kernel() (deprecated 2-APR-2005 in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/4/3/11) and makes the RCU API inaccessible to
non-GPL Linux kernel modules (as was announced more than one year ago in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/4/3/8).  Tested on x86 and ppc64.
