Jeremy Fitzhardinge 6996d3b63f paravirt: add a hook for once the allocator is ready
Add a hook so that the paravirt backend knows when the allocator is
ready.  This is useful for the obvious reason that the allocator is
available, but the other side-effect of having the bootmem allocator
available is that each page now has an associated "struct page".

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 10a0a8d4e3 Add common orderly_poweroff()
Various pieces of code around the kernel want to be able to trigger an
orderly poweroff.  This pulls them together into a single
implementation.

By default the poweroff command is /sbin/poweroff, but it can be set
via sysctl: kernel/poweroff_cmd.  This is split at whitespace, so it
can include command-line arguments.

This patch replaces four other instances of invoking either "poweroff"
or "shutdown -h now": two sbus drivers, and acpi thermal
management.

sparc64 has its own "powerd"; still need to determine whether it should
be replaced by orderly_poweroff().

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 0ab4dc9227 usermodehelper: split setup from execution
Rather than having hundreds of variations of call_usermodehelper for
various pieces of usermode state which could be set up, split the
info allocation and initialization from the actual process execution.

This means the general pattern becomes:
 info = call_usermodehelper_setup(path, argv, envp); /* basic state */
 call_usermodehelper_<SET EXTRA STATE>(info, stuff...);	/* extra state */
 call_usermodehelper_exec(info, wait);	/* run process and free info */

This patch introduces wrappers for all the existing calling styles for
call_usermodehelper_*, but folds their implementations into one.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge d84d1cc764 add argv_split()
argv_split() is a helper function which takes a string, splits it at
whitespace, and returns a NULL-terminated argv vector.  This is
deliberately simple - it does no quote processing of any kind.

[ Seems to me that this is something which is already being done in
  the kernel, but I couldn't find any other implementations, either to
  steal or replace.  Keep an eye out. ]

Maciej W. Rozycki 8b4a40809e zs: move to the serial subsystem
This is a reimplementation of the zs driver for the serial subsystem.  Any
resemblance to the old driver is purely coincidential.  ;-) I do hope I got
the handling of modem lines right -- better do not tackle me about the
issue unless you feel too good...

Any users of the old driver: please note the numbers of the serial lines
have now been swapped, i.e.  ttyS0 <-> ttyS1 and ttyS2 <-> ttyS3.  It has
to do with the modem lines mentioned above; basically the port A in a given
chip has to be initialised before the port B if you want to use the latter
as the serial console (which is usually the case), as operations on modem
lines of the serial line associated with the port B access both ports (see
the comment at the top of the driver for the details of wiring used).
Please update your scripts.

This is also the reason each SCC now requests an IRQ once only (as seen in
"/proc/interrupts") -- the handler takes care of both ports at once as the
line associated with the port B has to take status update interrupts from
both ports (and yet the line of the port A takes its own for itself too).
The old driver never got it right...

offer real protection against unexpected driver unloads, since we could
be preempted before try_modules_get gets executed. It is the caller who

exported symbol which guarantees protection when accessed through

Vinit Agnihotri d08c3b78b8 UBI: fix overflow bug
I was experiencing overflows in multiplications for
volume->used_bytes in vmt.c & vtbl.c, while creating & resizing large volumes.

vol->used_bytes is long long however its 2 operands vol->used_ebs &
vol->usable_leb_size
are int. So their multiplication for larger values causes integer overflows.
Typecasting them solves the problem.

My machine & flash details:

64Bit dual-core AMD opteron, 1 GB RAM, linux 2.6.18.3.
mtd size = 6GB, volume size= 5GB, peb_size = 4MB.

Andreas Dilger f8628a14a2 ext4: Remove 65000 subdirectory limit
This patch adds support to ext4 for allowing more than 65000
subdirectories. Currently the maximum number of subdirectories is capped
at 32000.

If we exceed 65000 subdirectories in an htree directory it sets the
inode link count to 1 and no longer counts subdirectories.  The
directory link count is not actually used when determining if a
directory is empty, as that only counts subdirectories and not regular
files that might be in there. 

A EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_DIR_NLINK flag has been added and it is set if
the subdir count for any directory crosses 65000. A later fsck will clear
EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_DIR_NLINK if there are no longer any directory
with >65000 subdirs.
