DocBook/drm: The word `so-called'; I do not think it connotes what you think it connotes
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
So-called \So"-called`\, a.
So named; called by such a name (but perhaps called thus with
doubtful propriety).
From WordNet (r) 2.0 [wn]:
so-called
adj : doubtful or suspect; "these so-called experts are no help"
[syn: {alleged(a)}, {supposed}]
My strong conviction is that widespread use of 'so gennant'
or 'sogennant' in German has led to the creeping misuse of
'so-called' in English (especially through technical writings).
In English, it would be better to use:
what is called

sparc32,sun4d: Change IPI IRQ level to prevent collision between IPI and timer interrupt
On Sun4d systems running in SMP mode, IRQ 14 is used for timer interrupts
and has a specialized interrupt handler. IPI is currently set to use IRQ 14
as well, which causes it to trigger the timer interrupt handler, and not the
IPI interrupt handler.
The IPI interrupt is therefore changed to IRQ 13, which is the highest
normally handled interrupt. This IRQ is also used for SBUS interrupts,
however there is nothing in the IPI/SBUS interrupt handlers that indicate
that they will not handle sharing the interrupt.
(IRQ 13 is indicated as audio interrupt, which is unlikely to be found in a
sun4d system)

ARM: mach-shmobile: Remove 3DG/SGX from sh7372 INTCS
This patch removes support for the SGX interrupt source in
the sh7372 INTCS controller.
The SGX hardware block included in sh7372 is already hooked
up to the ARM Cortex-A8 core using the INTCA controller,
so SGX users are encouraged to make use of that interrupt
source instead.
Removing support for the SGX interrupt source in INTCS
simplifies the sh7372 power management code by allowing
us to assume that only INTCA needs to be powered on to
operate the SGX hardware.
If the INTCS interrupt source would be kept then the kernel
would be forced to deal with additional dependencies that does
not follow the regular power domain hiearachy. With this
patch in place we can safely power down INTCS while the
SGX is operating.

drivers/rtc/rtc-s3c.c: allow multiple open / allow no-ioctl-open'ed rtc to have irq.
The previous rtc-s3c had two issues related with its IRQ.
1. Users cannot open rtc multiple times because an open operation
calls request_irq on the same IRQ. (e.g., two user processes wants to
open and read RTC time from rtc-s3c at the same time)
2. If alarm is set and no one has the rtc opened with filesystem
(either the alarm is set by kernel/boot-loader or user set an alarm and
closed rtc dev file), the pending bit is not cleared and no further
interrupt is invoked. When the alarm is used by the system itself such
as a resume from suspend-to-RAM or other Low-power modes/idle, this is
a critical issue.

The code is confused when it comes to detecting a locked memcg, though,
so it would fail and rollback after locking one memcg and encountering
an unlocked second one.
The result is that oom-locking hierarchies fails unconditionally and
that every oom killer invocation simply goes to sleep on the oom

order-0 because concurrent tasks free memory. In this case, later

2. high order balance fallbacks to order-0. quote from Mel: At the

If reclaiming at high order {
for each zone {
if all_unreclaimable

if watermark is not met

}
i.e. it clears ZONE_CONGESTED if it the zone is balanced. if not,
it restarts balancing at order-0. However, if the higher zones are
balanced for order-0, kswapd will miss clearing ZONE_CONGESTED as
that only happens after a zone is shrunk. This can mean that
wait_iff_congested() stalls unnecessarily.
This patch makes kswapd clear ZONE_CONGESTED during its initial
highmem->dma scan for zones that are already balanced.

kernel/printk: do not turn off bootconsole in printk_late_init() if keep_bootcon
It seems that 7bf693951a8e ("console: allow to retain boot console via
boot option keep_bootcon") doesn't always achieve what it aims, as when
printk_late_init() runs it unconditionally turns off all boot consoles.
With this patch, I am able to see more messages on the boot console in
KVM guests than I can without, when keep_bootcon is specified.
I think it is appropriate for the relevant -stable trees. However, it's
more of an annoyance than a serious bug (ideally you don't need to keep
the boot console around as console handover should be working -- I was
encountering a situation where the console handover wasn't working and
not having the boot console available meant I couldn't see why).
