- use a cdev. This was intended for original patchset, but was

[PATCH] pc8736x_gpio: fix re-modprobe errors: undo region reservation
Fix module-init-func by repairing usage of platform_device_del/put in
module-exit-func. IOW, it imitates Ingo's 'mishaps' patch, which fixed the
module-init-func's undo handling.
Also fixes lack of release_region to undo the earlier registration.
Also starts to 'use a cdev' which was originally intended (its present in
scx200_gpio). Code compiles and runs, exhibits a lesser error than
previously. (re-register-chrdev fails)
Since I had to add "include <linux/cdev.h>", I went ahead and made 2

[PATCH] make valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() take a pfn
Newer ARMs have a 40 bit physical address space, but mapping physical
memory above 4G needs a special page table format which we (currently?) do
not use for userspace mappings, so what happens instead is that mapping an
address >= 4G will happily discard the upper bits and wrap.
There is a valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() arch hook where we could check for
>= 4G addresses and deny the mapping, but this hook takes an unsigned long
address:
static inline int valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(unsigned long addr, size_t size);
And drivers/char/mem.c:mmap_mem() calls it like this:
When EDAC was first introduced into the kernel it had a sysfs interface,
but due to some problems it was disabled in 2.6.16 and remained disabled in
2.6.17.
With feedback, several of the control and attribute files of that interface
had some good constructive feedback. PCI Blacklist/Whitelist was a major
set which has design issues and it has been removed in this patch. Instead
of storing PCI broken parity status in EDAC, it has been moved to the
pci_dev structure itself by a previous PCI patch. A future patch will
enable that feature in EDAC by utilizing the pci_dev info.
The sysfs is now enabled in this patch, with a minimal set of control and
attribute files for examining EDAC state and for enabling/disabling the
memory and PCI operations.
The Documentation for EDAC has also been updated to reflect the new state
of EDAC operation.

This patch slightly reworks the new irq code to fix a small design error. I
removed the passing of the trigger to the map() calls entirely, it was not a
good idea to have one call do two different things. It also fixes a couple of
corner cases.
Mapping a linux virtual irq to a physical irq now does only that. Setting the
trigger is a different action which has a different call.
The main changes are:
- I no longer call host->ops->map() for an already mapped irq, I just return
the virtual number that was already mapped. It was called before to give an
opportunity to change the trigger, but that was causing issues as that could
happen while the interrupt was in use by a device, and because of the
trigger change, map would potentially muck around with things in a racy way.
That was causing much burden on a given's controller implementation of
map() to get it right. This is much simpler now. map() is only called on
the initial mapping of an irq, meaning that you know that this irq is _not_
being used. You can initialize the hardware if you want (though you don't
have to).
- Controllers that can handle different type of triggers (level/edge/etc...)
now implement the standard irq_chip->set_type() call as defined by the
generic code. That means that you can use the standard set_irq_type() to
configure an irq line manually if you wish or (though I don't like that
interface), pass explicit trigger flags to request_irq() as defined by the
generic kernel interfaces. Also, using those interfaces guarantees that
your controller set_type callback is called with the descriptor lock held,
thus providing locking against activity on the same interrupt (including
mask/unmask/etc...) automatically. A result is that, for example, MPIC's
own map() implementation calls irq_set_type(NONE) to configure the hardware
to the default triggers.
- To allow the above, the irq_map array entry for the new mapped interrupt
is now set before map() callback is called for the controller.
- The irq_create_of_mapping() (also used by irq_of_parse_and_map()) function
for mapping interrupts from the device-tree now also call the separate
set_irq_type(), and only does so if there is a change in the trigger type.
- While I was at it, I changed pci_read_irq_line() (which is the helper I
would expect most archs to use in their pcibios_fixup() to get the PCI
interrupt routing from the device tree) to also handle a fallback when the
DT mapping fails consisting of reading the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN to know wether
the device has an interrupt at all, and the the PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE to get an
interrupt number from the device. That number is then mapped using the
default controller, and the trigger is set to level low. That default
behaviour works for several platforms that don't have a proper interrupt
tree like Pegasos. If it doesn't work for your platform, then either
provide a proper interrupt tree from the firmware so that fallback isn't
needed, or don't call pci_read_irq_line()
- Add back a bit that got dropped by my main rework patch for properly
clearing pending IPIs on pSeries when using a kexec

[PATCH] md: fix some small races in bitmap plugging in raid5

When a device is unplugged, requests are moved from one or two (depending on
whether a bitmap is in use) queues to the main request queue.
So whenever requests are put on either of those queues, we should make sure
the raid5 array is 'plugged'. However we don't. We currently plug the raid5
queue just before putting requests on queues, so there is room for a race. If
something unplugs the queue at just the wrong time, requests will be left on
the queue and nothing will want to unplug them. Normally something else will
plug and unplug the queue fairly soon, but there is a risk that nothing will.

[PATCH] md: fix resync speed calculation for restarted resyncs
We introduced 'io_sectors' recently so we could count the sectors that causes
io during resync separate from sectors which didn't cause IO - there can be a
difference if a bitmap is being used to accelerate resync.
However when a speed is reported, we find the number of sectors processed
recently by subtracting an oldish io_sectors count from a current
'curr_resync' count. This is wrong because curr_resync counts all sectors,
not just io sectors.
So, add a field to mddev to store the curren io_sectors separately from
curr_resync, and use that in the calculations.

[PATCH] md: delay starting md threads until array is completely setup
When an array is started we start one or two threads (two if there is a
reshape or recovery that needs to be completed).
We currently start these *before* the array is completely set up and in
particular before queue->queuedata is set. If the thread actually starts
very quickly on another CPU, we can end up dereferencing queue->queuedata
and oops.
This patch also makes sure we don't try to start a recovery if a reshape is
being restarted.

I have reports of a problem with raid5 which turns out to be because the raid5
device gets stuck in a 'plugged' state. This shouldn't be able to happen as
3msec after it gets plugged it should get unplugged. However it happens
none-the-less. This patch fixes the problem and is a reasonable thing to do,
though it might hurt performance slightly in some cases.
Until I can find the real problem, we should probably have this workaround in
place.
