Jiri Slaby a8f5cda067 Char: moxa, rework open/close
- add locking to open/close/hangup and ioctl (tiocm)
- add pci hot-un-plug support (hangup on board remove, wait for openers)
- cleanup block_till_ready
- move close code common to close/hangup into separate function to be
  able to call it from open when hangup occurs while block_till_ready
- let ldisc flush on tty layer, it will do it after we return

The only relevant sign of port being ready is its board->ready since now.
Remove all other flags for this purpose which are set almost on the same
place.  Move ports inside the board to be sure that nobody will grab reference
to the port without being sure that it exists.

Dimitri Sivanich cbacdd9572 SGI Altix mmtimer: allow larger number of timers per node
The purpose of this patch to the SGI Altix specific mmtimer (posix timer)
driver is to allow a virtually infinite number of timers to be set per
node.

Timers will now be kept on a sorted per-node list and a single node-based
hardware comparator is used to trigger the next timer.

Alan Cox 1c2630ccf9 tty_ioctl: soft carrier handling
First cut at moving the soft carrier handling knowledge entirely into the core
code.  One or two drivers still needed to snoop these functions to track
CLOCAL internally.  Instead make TIOCSSOFTCAR generate the same driver calls
as other termios ioctls changing the clocal flag.  This allows us to remove
any driver knowledge and special casing.  Also while we are at it we can fix
the error handling.

Joe Peterson 575537b324 Resume TTY on SUSP and fix CRNL order in N_TTY line discipline
Refine these behaviors in the N_TTY line discipline:

1) Handle the signal characters consistently when received in a stopped TTY
   so that SUSP (typically ctrl-Z) behaves like INTR and QUIT in resuming a
   stopped TTY.

2) Adjust the order in which the IGNCR/ICRNL/INLCR processing is applied to
   be more logical and consistent with the behavior of other Unix systems.

Alan Cox 47f86834bb redo locking of tty->pgrp
Historically tty->pgrp and friends were pid_t and the code "knew" they were
safe.  The change to pid structs opened up a few races and the removal of the
BKL in places made them quite hittable.  We put tty->pgrp under the ctrl_lock
for the tty.

- Introduce a new ctrl_lock spin lock for the control bits
- Eliminate much of the lock_kernel use in n_tty
- Prepare to (but don't yet) call the drivers with the lock dropped
  on the paths that historically held the lock

BKL now primarily protects open/close/ldisc change in the tty layer

This one could do with some eyeballs on it.  In theory it simply wraps the

Oleg Nesterov 00cd5c37af ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init
Afaics, currently there are no kernel problems with ptracing init, it can't
lose SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag and be killed/stopped by accident.

The ability to strace/debug init can be very useful if you try to figure out
why it does not work as expected.

However, admin should know what he does, "gdb /sbin/init 1" stops init, it
can't reap orphaned zombies or take care of /etc/inittab until continued.  It
is even possible to crash init (and thus the whole system) if you wish,
ptracer has full control.

Oleg Nesterov 2800d8d19e document de_thread() with exit_notify() connection
Add a couple of small comments, it is not easy to see what this code does.

Oleg Nesterov d839fd4d2e ptrace: introduce task_detached() helper
exit.c has numerous "->exit_signal == -1" comparisons, this check is subtle
and deserves a helper.  Imho makes the code more parseable for humans.  At
least it's surely more greppable.

Also, a couple of whitespace cleanups. No functional changes.

Roland McGrath 5a8da0ea82 signals: x86 TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK
Replace TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK with TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK and define our own
set_restore_sigmask() function.  This saves the costly SMP-safe set_bit
operation, which we do not need for the sigmask flag since TIF_SIGPENDING
always has to be set too.
