Broadcast IPI's provide un-expected behaviour for cpu hotplug. CPU's in

receive these stale IPI's which are bad and introduce unexpected behaviour.
This is easily avoided by not sending a broadcast and addressing just the
CPU's in online map. Doing prelim cycle counts it appears there is no big
overhead and numbers seem around 0x3000-0x3900 on an average on x86 and x86_64
systems with CPUS running 3G, both for broadcast and mask version of the
API's.
The shortcuts are useful only for flat mode (where the perf shows no

- if we have a dyn_tick, we better implement all methods.

[PATCH] ARM: 2750/1: add i2c platform device for enp2611 on-board i2c bus
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
On the enp2611, GPIO 7 and 6 are connected to an on-board i2c bus that
attaches to the SODIMM module slot (for SPD) and an LM84 temperature
sensor. Add a platform device for this i2c bus.

[TG3]: Refinements to new locking strategy.
1. Move tp->irq_sync = 0 to before the interrupt mailbox IO in
tg3_enable_ints() so that the interrupt handler will always see
irq_sync == 0 when interrupts are enabled.
2. Remove the tg3_enable_ints() call in tg3_reset_hw(). Interrupts are
always enabled explicitly or through tg3_netif_start(). This is to
prevent interrupts being enabled while poll is disabled.
3. Update trans_start with jiffies in tg3_netif_stop() to prevent false
NETDEV WATCHDOG.
4. Pass in the proper irq_sync parameter to tg3_full_lock() depending on
netif_running() in some of the ethtool set calls.

[TG3]: Eliminate all hw IRQ handler spinlocks.
Move all driver spinlocks to be taken at sw IRQ
context only.
This fixes the skb_copy() we were doing with hw
IRQs disabled (which is illegal and triggers a
BUG() with HIGHMEM enabled). It also simplifies
the locking all over the driver tremendously.
We accomplish this feat by creating a special
sequence to synchronize with the hw IRQ handler
using a binary state and synchronize_irq().
This idea is from Herbert Xu.
Thanks to Michael Chan for helping to track down
all of the race conditions in initial versions
of this code.

[TG3]: Fix missing memory barriers and SD_STATUS_UPDATED bit clearing.
There must be a rmb() between reading the status block tag
and calling tg3_has_work(). This was missing in tg3_mis()
and tg3_interrupt_tagged(). tg3_poll() got it right.
Also, SD_STATUS_UPDATED must be cleared in the status block
right before we call tg3_has_work(). Only tg3_poll() got this
wrong.
Based upon patches and commentary from Grant Grundler and
Michael Chan.

Create TCP_CONG_ADVANCED option, akin to IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER, which

[PATCH] ARM: 2748/1: ixp2000 implementation of the iomap api
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
A number of ixp2000 models have a bug where the byte lanes for PCI I/O
transactions are swapped. We already work around this in our versions
of {in,out}{b,w,l}, but we also need to perform these workarounds in a
custom implementation of the new iomap API, provided in this patch.

This patch conditionalises the io{read,write}{8,16,32} defines and the
prototypes for ioport_map/ioport_unmap in asm-arm/io.h on ioread8 not

their own implementation of the iomap API, ixp2000 for example needs
this.

Patch from Catalin Marinas
cpu_v6_set_pte() sets the kernel access rights to r/o for user
