sh: Kill off obsolete busses from arch/sh/Kconfig.
ISA can go away now that the hd6446x PCMCIA drivers no longer exist
in-tree. The rationale for enabling CONFIG_ISA in the first place is
likewise no longer valid given that the subsystem has changed since
the time that assertion was valid.
While we are at it, kill off SBUS, MCA, EISA, and so on. These are
not supported and never will be.
Justin Madru bisected this commit, it was causing weird Firefox
crashes.
The reason is that GCC mis-optimizes (re-uses) the on-stack parameters of
the calling frame, which corrupts the syscall return pt_regs state and
thus corrupts user-space register state.
So we go back to the slightly less clean but more optimization-safe
method of getting to pt_regs. Also add a comment to explain this.

The asm constraints for the strncpy_from_user() result were missing an
early clobber, which tells gcc that the last output arguments
are written before all input arguments are read.
Also add more early clobbers in the rest of the file and fix 32-bit

That works, but we need to do it not for the struct klist_node,
but for the struct we insert into the void * in klist_node,
which is struct klist.
This is due to debugfs_create_size_t() missing an stub that returns
-ENODEV when the DEBUGFS subsystem is not configured in (like the rest
of the debugfs API).
Some sysfs binary files don't like having 0 passed to them as a size.
Fix this up at the root by just returning to the vfs if userspace asks
us for a zero sized buffer.

x86: remove kernel_physical_mapping_init() from init section
Impact: fix crash with memory hotplug enabled
kernel_physical_mapping_init() is called during memory hotplug
so it does not belong in the init section.
If the kernel is built with CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y on
the make command line, arch/x86/mm/init_64.c is compiled with
the -fno-inline-functions-called-once gcc option defeating
inlining of kernel_physical_mapping_init() within init_memory_mapping().
When kernel_physical_mapping_init() is not inlined it is placed
in the .init.text section according to the __init in it's current
declaration. A later call to kernel_physical_mapping_init() during
a memory hotplug operation encounters an int3 trap because the
.init.text section memory has been freed.
This patch eliminates the crash caused by the int3 trap by moving the
non-inlined kernel_physical_mapping_init() from .init.text to .meminit.text.

CM contains, among other blocks, an Interrupt Generator (IG) and a Clock

IDMAC is a specialised DMA controller, its DMA channels cannot be used for

Open by handle just grabs an inode by handle and then creates itself

broken for directories, where the VFS locking relies on the fact that
there is only just one single dentry for a given inode, and that
these are always connected to the root of the filesystem so that
it's locking algorithms work (see Documentations/filesystems/Locking)
Remove all the existing open by handle code and replace it with a small
wrapper around the exportfs code which deals with all these issues.

PCI PM: Restore standard config registers of all devices early
There is a problem in our handling of suspend-resume of PCI devices that
many of them have their standard config registers restored with
interrupts enabled and they are put into the full power state with
interrupts enabled as well. This may lead to the following scenario:
* an interrupt vector is shared between two or more devices
* one device is resumed earlier and generates an interrupt
* the interrupt handler of another device tries to handle it and
attempts to access the device the config space of which hasn't been
restored yet and/or which still is in a low power state
* the system crashes as a result
To prevent this from happening we should restore the standard
configuration registers of all devices with interrupts disabled and we
should put them into the D0 power state right after that.
Unfortunately, this cannot be done using the existing
pci_set_power_state(), because it can sleep. Also, to do it we have to
make sure that the config spaces of all devices were actually saved

"PCI hotplug: introduce functions for ACPI slot detection"
simply harden against it while the changes to

Although rfkill support for the EEE bluetooth device has been added to
2.6.28-rc the appropriate ACPI accessor definitions were not added, so
the support was non functional. The patch below adds the get and set
accessors and has been verified to work on an EEE 901.

thermal fixup for broken BIOS which has invalid trip points.
ACPI thermal driver only re-evaluate VALID trip points.
For the broken BIOS show in
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8544
the active[0] is set to invalid at boot time
and it will not be re-evaluated again.
We can still get a single warning message at boot time.

Btrfs: fix ioctl arg size (userland incompatible change!)
Btrfs: Clear the device->running_pending flag before bailing on congestion
The structure used to send device in btrfs ioctl calls was not
properly aligned, and so 32 bit ioctls would not work properly on
64 bit kernels.
We could fix this with compat ioctls, but we're just one byte away
and it doesn't make sense at this stage to carry about the compat ioctls
forever at this stage in the project.
This patch brings the ioctl arg up to an evenly aligned 4k.

Btrfs: Clear the device->running_pending flag before bailing on congestion
Btrfs maintains a queue of async bio submissions so the checksumming
threads don't have to wait on get_request_wait. In order to avoid
extra wakeups, this code has a running_pending flag that is used
to tell new submissions they don't need to wake the thread.
When the threads notice congestion on a single device, they
may decide to requeue the job and move on to other devices. This
makes sure the running_pending flag is cleared before the
job is requeued.
It should help avoid IO stalls by making sure the task is woken up
when new submissions come in.
