177996e6e2 powerpc: Don't do generic calibrate_delay()
Currently we are wasting time calling the generic calibrate_delay()
function. We don't need it since our implementation of __delay() is
based on the CPU timebase. So instead, we use our own small
implementation that initializes loops_per_jiffy to something sensible
to make the few users like spinlock debug be happy

0a8eba9b7f ramfs: ignore unknown mount options
On systems where CONFIG_SHMEM is disabled, mounting tmpfs filesystems can
fail when tmpfs options are used.  This is because tmpfs creates a small
wrapper around ramfs which rejects unknown options, and ramfs itself only
supports a tiny subset of what tmpfs supports.  This makes it pretty hard
to use the same userspace systems across different configuration systems.
As such, ramfs should ignore the tmpfs options when tmpfs is merely a
wrapper around ramfs.

This used to work before commit c3b1b1cbf0 as previously, ramfs would
ignore all options.  But now, we get:
ramfs: bad mount option: size=10M
mount: mounting mdev on /dev failed: Invalid argument

Another option might be to restore the previous behavior, where ramfs
simply ignored all unknown mount options ... which is what Hugh prefers.

For the sake of power saver lovers, use a deferrable timer to fire

As some big routers cache equilibrium depends on garbage collection
done in time, we take into account elapsed time between two
rt_check_expire() invocations to adjust the amount of slots we have to
check.

menuconfig IEEE802154_DRIVERS is a bool that depends on tristate IEEE802154.
If the IEEE802154 symbol is 'm', the bool becomes 'y'.
This allows tristate symbols under IEEE802154_DRIVERS to be configured as
'y' and cause build problems.
Changing the menuconfig bool to a tristate fixes this.

373500db92 bonding: network device names are case sensative
The bonding device acts unlike all other Linux network device functions
in that it ignores case of device names. The developer must have come
from windows!

Cleanup the management of names and use standard routines where possible.
Flag places where bonding device still doesn't work right with network
namespaces.

6d7ab43ccc bonding: elminate bad refcount code
The "expected_refcount" stuff in bonding sysfs module is a mistake.
Sysfs does proper refcounting, and it is okay to remove a bond device
that has some user process holding the file open.

3d632c3f28 bonding: fix style issues
Resolve some of the complaints from checkpatch, and remove "magic emacs format"
comments, and useless MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE(). But should not
change actual code.

9e71626c1c bonding: fix destructor
It is not safe to use a network device destructor that is a function in
the module, since it can be called after module is unloaded if sysfs
handle is open.

When eventually using netlink, the device cleanup code needs to be done
via uninit function.

7e08384045 bonding: remove bonding read/write semaphore
The whole read/write semaphore locking can be removed. It doesn't add any
protection that isn't already done by using the RTNL mutex properly.
