This looks like its indeed not cancelled at all and migrates the it to
another cpu. Fix it via a proper hotplug notifier mechanism.

We currently use an optimization to skip the overhead of wake-idle
processing if more than one task is assigned to a run-queue. The
assumption is that the system must already be load-balanced or we
wouldnt be overloaded to begin with.
The problem is that we are looking at rq->nr_running, which may include
RT tasks in addition to CFS tasks. Since the presence of RT tasks
really has no bearing on the balance status of CFS tasks, this throws
the calculation off.
This patch changes the logic to only consider the number of CFS tasks
when making the decision to optimze the wake-idle.
Dmitry Adamushko pointed out a logic error in task_wake_up_rt() where we
will always evaluate to "true". You can find the thread here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/22/296
In reality, we only want to try to push tasks away when a wake up request is
not going to preempt the current task. So lets fix it.
Note: We introduce test_tsk_need_resched() instead of open-coding the flag
check so that the merge-conflict with -rt should help remind us that we
may need to support NEEDS_RESCHED_DELAYED in the future, too.

Make forced module loading optional
The kernel module loader used to be much too happy to allow loading of
modules for the wrong kernel version by default. For example, if you
had MODVERSIONS enabled, but tried to load a module with no version
info, it would happily load it and taint the kernel - whether it was
likely to actually work or not!
Generally, such forced module loading should be considered a really
really bad idea, so make it conditional on a new config option
(MODULE_FORCE_LOAD), and make it default to off.
If somebody really wants to force module loads, that's their problem,
but we should not encourage it. Especially as it happened to me by
mistake (ie regular unversioned Fedora modules getting loaded) causing
lots of strange behavior.

x86: remove dell reboot dmi quirk board name match
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10547
Newer Dell OptiPlex 745s hang before rebooting after 'sudo reboot'.
A patch for some versions of the OptiPlex was proposed here --
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/5/59 -- and is included in 2.6.23 and
later kernels, according to
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.23/arch/i386/kernel/reboot.c . However,
the DMI_BOARD_NAME ("0WF810") is too restrictive. Newer OptiPlex
machines have a DMI_BOARD_NAME of "0RF703". I therefore suggest
adding another clause to reboot.c, similar to the one in the original
patch, but matching a DMI_BOARD_NAME of "0RF703".
On further inspection, it seems that there are other DMI_BOARD_NAMEs
for this same machine. They seem to change from time to time, which
means that the current code is fragile. Moreover, using bios reboot
should not break non-SFF OptiPlex 745s, and so a reasonable fix is to
simply drop the match on DMI_BOARD_NAME.

Not all device types need a wildcard at the end of their module
aliases. In particular, for i2c module aliases, the trailing wildcard
is not only unneeded, it could also cause the wrong driver to be

As I2C devices have no IDs, i2c module aliases are simple, arbitrary
device names. For example:
This would cause trouble if one I2C chip name matches the beginning of
another I2C chip name and both chips are supported by different
drivers. For example, an i2c device named lm9042 would cause the lm90
driver to be loaded, while it doesn't support that device. This case
has yet to be seen in practice, but still, I'd like to fix it now. The
cleanest fix is to remove the trailing wildcard from i2c module aliases.
Here's a patch doing this.
Not all device type aliases need a trailing wildcard, in particular
the i2c aliases don't. Don't add a wildcard by default in do_table(),
instead let each device type handler add it if needed.

netns: Fix device renaming for sysfs
When a netdev is moved across namespaces with the
'dev_change_net_namespace' function, the 'device_rename' function is
used to fixup kobject and refresh the sysfs tree. The device_rename
function will call kobject_rename and this one will check if there is
an object with the same name and this is the case because we are
renaming the object with the same name.
The use of 'device_rename' seems for me wrong because we usually don't
rename it but just move it across namespaces. As we just want to do a
mini "netdev_[un]register", IMO the functions
'netdev_[un]register_kobject' should be used instead, like an usual
network device [un]registering.
This patch replace device_rename by netdev_unregister_kobject,
followed by netdev_register_kobject.
The netdev_register_kobject will call device_initialize and will raise
a warning indicating the device was already initialized. In order to
fix that, I split the device initialization into a separate function
and use it together with 'netdev_register_kobject' into
register_netdevice. So we can safely call 'netdev_register_kobject' in
'dev_change_net_namespace'.
This fix will allow to properly use the sysfs per namespace which is
coming from -mm tree.

On some remote PHY blade systems, the driver receives no initial link

reset.

bridge: forwarding table information for >256 devices
The forwarding table binary interface (my bad choice), only exposes
the port number of the first 8 bits. The bridge code was limited to
256 ports at the time, but now the kernel supports up 1024 ports, so
the upper bits are lost when doing:
brctl showmacs
The fix is to squeeze the extra bits into small hole left in data
structure, to maintain binary compatiablity.

tg3: Add link state reporting to UMP firmware
All variants of the 5714, 5715, and 5780 offer a feature called the
"Universal Management Port". This feature is implemented in firmware
and is largely transparent to the driver, except...
It turns out that the UMP firmware needs to know the current status
of the link. Because the firmware cannot touch the PHY registers while
the driver is in control of the device, it needs the driver to report
link status changes through an additional handshaking mechanism.
Without this handshake, it has been observed in the field that the UMP
firmware will not operate correctly.
This patch implements the new handshake with the UMP firmware. Since
the handshake uses the same mechanism ASF heartbeats use, code was
added to detect and wait for completion of a pending previous event.

tg3: Use constant 500KHz MI clock on adapters with a CPMU
The MI clock is not configured correctly on adapters with the CPMU
present. The tg3 driver has code which statically sets the MI clock to
be a fraction of the speed at which the core clock is running.
However, the CPMU can change the adapter's core clock frequency based
on operating conditions. Consequently, the MI will run slow when the
core's clock has been slowed down.
There is a new 500KHz constant frequency clock available on adapters
with a CPMU. This patch removes the static core clock scaling and
configures the MI clock to use this new 500KHz clock instead.
Running the MI clock at slower speeds will not directly result in data
corruption, but it does challenge the PHY read and write routine timeouts.
