5e518d7672 [PATCH] fbdev: Resurrect hooks to get EDID from firmware
For the i386, code is already present in video.S that gets the EDID from the
video BIOS.  Make this visible so drivers can also use this data as fallback
when i2c does not work.

To ensure that the EDID block is returned for the primary graphics adapter
only, by check if the IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW flag is set.

b835996f62 [PATCH] files: lock-free fd look-up
With the use of RCU in files structure, the look-up of files using fds can now
be lock-free.  The lookup is protected by rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock().
This patch changes the readers to use lock-free lookup.

badf16621c [PATCH] files: break up files struct
In order for the RCU to work, the file table array, sets and their sizes must
be updated atomically.  Instead of ensuring this through too many memory
barriers, we put the arrays and their sizes in a separate structure.  This
patch takes the first step of putting the file table elements in a separate
structure fdtable that is embedded withing files_struct.  It also changes all
the users to refer to the file table using files_fdtable() macro.  Subsequent
applciation of RCU becomes easier after this.

383f2835eb [PATCH] Prefetch kernel stacks to speed up context switch
For architecture like ia64, the switch stack structure is fairly large
(currently 528 bytes).  For context switch intensive application, we found
that significant amount of cache misses occurs in switch_to() function.
The following patch adds a hook in the schedule() function to prefetch
switch stack structure as soon as 'next' task is determined.  This allows
maximum overlap in prefetch cache lines for that structure.

69ac59647e [PATCH] alpha: process_reloc_for_got confuses r_offset and r_addend
arch/alpha/kernel/module.c:process_reloc_for_got(), which figures out how big
the .got section for a module should be, appears to be confusing r_offset (the
file offset that the relocation needs to be applied to) with r_addend (the
offset of the relocation's actual target address from the address of the
relocation's symbol).  Because of this, one .got entry is allocated for each
relocation instead of one each unique symbol/addend.

In the module I am working with, this causes the .got section to be almost 10
times larger than it needs to be (75544 bytes instead of 7608 bytes).  As the
.got is accessed with global-pointer-relative instructions, it needs to be
within the 64k gp "zone", and a 75544 byte .got clearly does not fit.  The
result of this is that relocation overflows are detected during module load
and the load is aborted.

Change struct got_entry/process_reloc_for_got to fix this.

The use of non-shortcut version of routines breaking CPU hotplug.  The option
to select this via cmdline also is deleted with the physflat patch, hence
directly placing this code under CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

We dont want to use broadcast mode IPI's when hotplug is enabled.  This causes
bad effects in send IPI to a cpu that is offline which can trip when the cpu
is in the process of being kicked alive.

4c7fc7220f [PATCH] i386: seccomp fix for auditing/ptrace
This is the same issue as ppc64 before, when returning to userland we
shouldn't re-compute the seccomp check or the task could be killed during
sigreturn when orig_eax is overwritten by the sigreturn syscall.  This was
found by Roland.

This was harmless from a security standpoint, but some i686 users reported
failures with auditing enabled system wide (some distro surprisingly makes
it the default) and I reproduced it too by keeping the whole workload under
strace -f.

Patch is tested and works for me under strace -f.

The following patch changes the usages of PVR_440* into strcmp's with the
cpu_name field, and removes the defines altogether.  The Ebony portion was

tests in general is that not all CPUs can be on and be able to do this type
of comparison.

b2ad7b5e81 Allow PCI config space syscalls to be used by 64-bit processes.
The pciconfig_iobase, pciconfig_read and pciconfig_write system calls
were only implemented for 32-bit processes; for 64-bit processes they
returned an ENOSYS error.  This allows them to be used by 64-bit
processes as well.  The X server uses pciconfig_iobase at least, and
this change is necessary to allow a 64-bit X server to work on my G5.

future for device-specific data for other sorts of devices, such as
virtual I/O devices.

3cc747e964 [PATCH] PPC64: large INITRD causes kernel not to boot
In PPC64 there are number of problems in arch/ppc64/boot/main.c that
prevent a kernel from making use of a large (greater than ~16MB) INITRD.
This is 64 bit architecture and really large INITRD images should be
possible.

Simply put the existing code has a fixed reservation (claim) address and
once the kernel plus initrd image are large enough to pass this address
all sorts of bad things occur. The fix is the dynamically establish the
first claim address above the loaded kernel plus initrd (plus some
"padding" and rounding). If PROG_START is defined this will be used as
the minimum safe address - currently known to be 0x01400000 for the
firmwares tested so far.
