Jon Smirl a8f340e394 [PATCH] vt: Remove VT-specific declarations and definitions from tty.h
MAX_NR_CONSOLES, fg_console, want_console and last_console are more of a
function of the VT layer than the TTY one.  Moving these to vt.h and vt_kern.h
allows all of the framebuffer and VT console drivers to remove their
dependency on tty.h.

Magnus Damm 73ca66b97b [PATCH] release_firmware() fixes
Use release_firmware() to free requested resources.

According to Documentation/firmware_class/README the request_firmware()
call should be followed by a release_firmware().  Some drivers do not
however free the firmware previously allocated with request_firmware().
This patch tries to fix this by making sure that release_firmware() is used
as expected.

Ingo Molnar d6d897cec2 [PATCH] lockdep: core, reduce per-lock class-cache size
lockdep_map is embedded into every lock, which blows up data structure
sizes all around the kernel.  Reduce the class-cache to be for the default
class only - that is used in 99.9% of the cases and even if we dont have a
class cached, the lookup in the class-hash is lockless.

This change reduces the per-lock dep_map overhead by 56 bytes on 64-bit
platforms and by 28 bytes on 32-bit platforms.

Peter Oberparleiter 25e206b54b [PATCH] partitions: let partitions inherit policy from disk
Change the partition code in fs/partitions/check.c to initialize a newly
detected partition's policy field with that of the containing block device
(see patch below).

My reasoning is that function set_disk_ro() in block/genhd.c modifies the
policy field (read-only indicator) of a disk and all contained partitions.
When a partition is detected after the call to set_disk_ro(), the policy
field of this partition will currently not inherit the disk's policy field.
 This behavior poses a problem in cases where a block device can be
'logically de- and reactivated' like e.g.  the s390 DASD driver because
partition detection may run after the policy field has been modified.

* Update the boot methods to add syslinux and isolinux, and remove

* Add a referance to initramfs along side initrd.
  Should the latter and its document be removed some time soon?

* Various cleanups to put the text consistently into the thrid person

* Reformated a bit to fit into 80 columns a bit more nicely

* Should the bootloaders documentation be removed or split

Hisashi Hifumi 73ce5934e2 [PATCH] reiserfs: fix journaling issue regarding fsync()
When write() extends a file(i_size is increased) and fsync() is called,
change of inode must be written to journaling area through fsync().
But,currently the i_trans_id is not correctly updated when i_size is
increased.  So fsync() does not kick the journal writer.

Reiserfs_file_write() already updates the transaction when blocks are
allocated, but the case when i_size increases and new blocks are not added
is not correctly treated.

Following patch fix this bug.

Peter Williams 0a565f7919 [PATCH] sched: fix bug in __migrate_task()
Problem:

In the function __migrate_task(), deactivate_task() followed by
activate_task() is used to move the task from one run queue to
another.  This has two undesirable effects:

1. The task's priority is recalculated. (Nowhere else in the
scheduler code is the priority recalculated for a change of CPU.)

2. The task's time stamp is set to the current time.  At the very least,
this makes the adjustment of the time stamp before the call to
deactivate_task() redundant but I believe the problem is more serious
as the time stamp now holds the time of the queue change instead of
the time at which the task was woken.  In addition, unless dest_rq is
the same queue as "current" is on the time stamp could be inaccurate
due to inter CPU drift.

Solution:

Replace the call to activate_task() with one to __activate_task().

Linus Torvalds b862f3b099 i386: improve and correct inline asm memory constraints
Use "+m" rather than a combination of "=m" and "m" for improved clarity
and consistency.

This also fixes some inlines that incorrectly didn't tell the compiler
that they read the old value at all, potentially causing the compiler to
generate bogus code.  It appear that all of those potential bugs were
hidden by the use of extra "volatile" specifiers on the data structures
in question, though.

Arjan van de Ven 1252ecf63f [ATM]: fix possible recursive locking in skb_migrate()
ok this is a real potential deadlock in a way, it takes two locks of 2
skbuffs without doing any kind of lock ordering; I think the following
patch should fix it. Just sort the lock taking order by address of the
skb.. it's not pretty but it's the best this can do in a minimally
invasive way.

make sure the cpu hotplug recursive mutex (yuck) is taken early in the
cpufreq codepaths to avoid a AB-BA deadlock.

Not three, as assumed. This causes the barrier bit to be needlessly set
