When a spinlock debugging check hits, we print the CPU number as an
informational thing - but there is no guarantee that preemption is off
at that point - hence we should use raw_smp_processor_id(). Otherwise
DEBUG_PREEMPT will print a warning.

[PATCH] Fix swiotlb pci_map_sg error handling
The overflow checking condition in lib/swiotlb.c was wrong.
It would first run a NULL pointer through virt_to_phys before
testing it. Since pci_map_sg overflow is not that uncommon
and causes data corruption (including broken file systems) when not
properly detected I think it's better to fix it in 2.6.15.
Whenever ywrap scrolling is selected together with 180 degree screen
rotation, 2.6.15-rc6 and earlier versions are broken. fb_pan_display()
expects non-negative yoffsets, but ud_update_start() calls it with
yoffsets down to -(yres - font height). This patch transforms yoffset
to the correct range 0 ... vyres-1.
Some obviously unneeded parentheses are removed, too.
Verified with cyblafb, should be applied before 2.6.15-final because it
does fix the framebuffer rotation code introduced early in the 2.6.15
release cycle.
[PATCH] intelfb: Fix oops when changing video mode
Reported by: janis huang (Bugzilla Bug 5747)
Fix on oops in intelfb. Not sure what's happening, looks like
dinfo->name pointer is invalidated after initialization. Remove
intelfb_get_fix, it's not needed and move the majority of the code to
the initialization routine.
The g5 thermal control for liquid cooled machines has a small bug, when
the temperatures gets too high, it boosts all fans to the max, but
incorrectly sets the liquids pump to the min instead of the max speed,
thus causing the overtemp condition not to clear and the machine to shut
down after a while. This fixes it to set the pumps to max speed instead.
This problem might explain some of the reports of random shutdowns that
some g5 users have been reporting in the past.
Many thanks to Marcus Rothe for spending a lot of time trying various
patches & sending log logs before I found out that typo. Note that
overtemp handling is still not perfect and the machine might still
shutdown, that patch should reduce if not eliminate such occcurences in
"normal" conditions with high load. I'll implement a better handling
with proper slowing down of the CPUs later.

Strictly speaking, the NPTL kernel helpers are required for pre ARMv6

when using an SMP ARMv6 machine but not on pre-ARMv6.
This patch adds a memory barrier kernel helper that glibc can use as

kernel on ARMv6, as well as the necessary dmb instructions to the
