Nandsim consumes ~2x more RAM than the density of simulated device.
It becomes critical if we need to simulate 256MB NAND and run stress tests
on it.
We investigated the reasons. nandsim allocates space for pages using kmalloc
function. The size of LP nand page is 2112 bytes.
kmalloc gets space from slab pools by chunks 2^n. So if we need to kmalloc
2112 bytes, 4096 bytes will be consumed by system.
The best way to avoid this issue would be using kmem_cache allocations. AFAIK
this mechanism specially designed to handle cases when arrays of allocations
are used.

Add a new module parameter 'cache_file' which causes nandsim
to use that file instead of memory to cache nand data.
Using a file allows the simulation of NAND that is bigger
than the available memory.

Some systems report SIS 5513 as both vendor/id and subvendor/id
string. In that case we can't distinguish the system by the id
svid/sdid and in fact the entry here breaks some boxes. At some
point we need to find another way to detect the Targa Visionary 1000,
until then this trades a hang for some users with lower performance

Since applying the fix suggested by the errata (disabling MSI), we've had
issues with interrupts being stuck on despite IIR being 0 on GM965 hardware.
Most reporters of the issue have confirmed that turning MSI back on fixes
things, and given the difficulties experienced in getting reliable MSI working
on Linux, it's believable that the errata was about software issues and not
actual hardware issues.

ide: build-fix for CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_PMAC=n
Revert "ide: respect current DMA setting during resume"
While 440037287c "[PATCH] switch all filesystems over to
d_obtain_alias" removed some cases where fh_to_dentry() and
fh_to_parent() could return NULL, there are still a few NULL returns
left in individual filesystems. Thus it was a mistake for that commit
to remove the handling of NULL returns in the callers.
Revert those parts of 440037287c which removed the NULL handling.
(We could, alternatively, modify all implementations to return -ESTALE
instead of NULL, but that proves to require fixing a number of
filesystems, and in some cases it's arguably more natural to return
NULL.)
Thanks to David for original patch and Linus, Christoph, and Hugh for
review.
