It is possible for the timer expiry function to run even though the
request has already been handled: ide_timer_expiry() only checks that
the handler is not NULL, but it is possible that we have handled a
request (thus clearing the handler) and then started a new request
(thus starting the timer again, and setting a handler).
A simple way to exhibit this is to set the DMA timeout to 1 jiffy and
run dd: The kernel will panic after a few minutes because
ide_timer_expiry() tries to add a timer when it's already active.
To fix this, we simply add a request generation count that gets
incremented at every interrupt, and check in ide_timer_expiry() that
we have not already handled a new interrupt before running the expiry
function.

Revert all this. It can cause device-mapper to receive a different major from
earlier kernels and it turns out that the Amanda backup program (via GNU tar,

Which is a bit broken of Amanda (or tar), but this feature isn't important

Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code
ordering that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode
driver to hang during the resume.
The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in
its CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and
hangs. It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the
microcode stored in memory during the resume instead of trying to load it

IDE error recovery is using IDLE IMMEDIATE if the drive is busy or has DRQ set.
This violates the ATA spec (can only send IDLEÂ IMMEDIATE when drive is not

not violate the ATA spec as far as I can tell.
Bart:
* port the patch over the current tree
* undo the recalibration code removal
* send SET FEATURES command after checking for good drive status
* don't check whether the current request is of REQ_TYPE_ATA_{CMD,TASK}

* some pre-ATA4 drives require INITIALIZE DEVICE PARAMETERS command before

Because we do not reserve space for the pci-x and pci-e state in struct
pci dev we need to dynamically allocate it. However because we need
to support restore being called multiple times after a single save
it is never safe to free the buffers we have allocated to hold the
state.
So this patch modifies the save routines to first check to see
if we have already allocated a state buffer before allocating
a new one. Then the restore routines are modified to not free
the state after restoring it. Simple and it fixes some subtle
error path handling bugs, that are hard to test for.

There are two ways pci_save_state and pci_restore_state are used. As
helper functions during suspend/resume, and as helper functions around
a hardware reset event. When used as helper functions around a hardware
reset event there is no reason to believe the calls will be paired, nor
is there a good reason to believe that if we restore the msi state from
before the reset that it will match the current msi state. Since arch
code may change the msi message without going through the driver, drivers
currently do not have enough information to even know when to call
pci_save_state to ensure they will have msi state in sync with the other
kernel irq reception data structures.
It turns out the solution is straight forward, cache the state in the
existing msi data structures (not the magic pci saved things) and
have the msi code update the cached state each time we write to the hardware.
This means we never need to read the hardware to figure out what the hardware
state should be.
By modifying the caching in this manner we get to remove our save_state
routines and only need to provide restore_state routines.
The only fields that were at all tricky to regenerate were the msi and msi-x
control registers and the way we regenerate them currently is a bit dependent
upon assumptions on how we use the allow msi registers to be configured and used
making the code a little bit brittle. If we ever change what cases we allow
or how we configure the msi bits we can address the fragility then.

In active-backup mode, the current bonding code duplicates IGMP
traffic to all slaves, so that switches are up to date in case of a
failover from an active to a backup interface. If bonding then fails
back to the original active interface, it is likely that the "active
slave" switch's IGMP forwarding for the port will be out of date until
some event occurs to refresh the switch (e.g., a membership query).
This patch alters the behavior of bonding to no longer flood
IGMP to all ports, and to issue IGMP JOINs to the newly active port at
the time of a failover. This insures that switches are kept up to date
for all cases.

Fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup unconfirmed list handling:
- unconfirmed entries can not be killed manually, they are removed on
confirmation or final destruction of the conntrack entry, which means
we might iterate forever without making forward progress.
This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which
holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when
the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different
packet is handled.
- taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the
locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and
another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry
What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash
table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be
destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped.
Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark
them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

bash/1282 is trying to acquire lock:
(&cpu_base->lock_key){.+..}, at: [<000000000005f17e>] hrtimer_cpu_notify+0xc6/0x240
but task is already holding lock:
(&cpu_base->lock_key#2){.+..}, at: [<000000000005f174>] hrtimer_cpu_notify+0xbc/0x240
which lock already depends on the new lock.
This happens because we have the following code in kernel/hrtimer.c:
migrate_hrtimers(int cpu)
[...]
old_base = &per_cpu(hrtimer_bases, cpu);
new_base = &get_cpu_var(hrtimer_bases);
[...]
spin_lock(&new_base->lock);
spin_lock(&old_base->lock);
Which means the spinlocks are taken in an order which depends on which cpu
gets shut down from which other cpu. Therefore lockdep complains that there
might be an ABBA deadlock. Since migrate_hrtimers() gets only called on
cpu hotplug it's safe to assume that it isn't executed concurrently on a
The same problem exists in kernel/timer.c: migrate_timers().
As pointed out by Christian Borntraeger one possible solution to avoid
the locking order complaints would be to make sure that the locks are
always taken in the same order. E.g. by taking the lock of the cpu with
the lower number first.
To achieve this we introduce two new spinlock functions double_spin_lock
and double_spin_unlock which lock or unlock two locks in a given order.

into migrate.h so that is can be used from both locations.

Remove the SMT-nice feature which idles sibling cpus on SMT cpus to
facilitiate nice working properly where cpu power is shared. The idling of
cpus in the presence of runnable tasks is considered too fragile, easy to
break with outside code, and the complexity of managing this system if an
architecture comes along with many logical cores sharing cpu power will be
unworkable.
Remove the associated per_cpu_gain variable in sched_domains used only by
this code.
Also:
The reason is that with dynticks enabled, this code breaks without yet
further tweaks so dynticks brought on the rapid demise of this code. So
either we tweak this code or kill it off entirely. It was Ingo's preference
to kill it off. Either way this needs to happen for 2.6.21 since dynticks
has gone in.

The gpio_keys driver is wrongly ARM-specific; it can't build on
other platforms with GPIO suport. This fixes that problem.

In some cases when we are not using msi we need a way to ensure that the
hardware does not have an msi capability enabled. Currently the code has been
calling disable_msi_mode to try and achieve that. However disable_msi_mode
has several other side effects and is only available when msi support is
compiled in so it isn't really appropriate.
Instead this patch implements pci_msi_off which disables all msi and msix
capabilities unconditionally with no additional side effects.
pci_disable_device was redundantly clearing the bus master enable flag and
clearing the msi enable bit. A device that is not allowed to perform bus
mastering operations cannot generate intx or msi interrupt messages as those
are essentially a special case of dma, and require bus mastering. So the call
in pci_disable_device to disable msi capabilities was redundant.
quirk_pcie_pxh also called disable_msi_mode and is updated to use pci_msi_off.

The generic rtc-ds1742 driver can be used for RBTX4927 and JMR3927
(with __swizzle_addr trick). This patch also removes MIPS local
DS1742 stuff.
