The code initializing the "high" BATs on CPUs like the 750FX got
broken when copied over from 2.4. This cause random problems with
machines using those CPUs (iBook 2s typically).

Sparse noticed a bunch of mismatched prototypes in the new syscalls.h file
when compiling net/socket.c  Whilst most of them are just missing __user
tags, the last argument of sys_socketpair was completely different.

WRT 2.4, Ed Vance put this fix into 2.4:

 According to the data sheet, the OX16PCI952 has port 0 in BAR0 and
 port 1 in BAR1. (unlike the OX16C954, BTW) The 921600 base baud value
 is your oscillator rate divided by the default oversample rate, 16.

Since 2.6 PCI IDs have been updated to use the real device ID for
this part, we really should include this fix as well.

If a serial port is hung up using vhangup() with HUPCL cleared (so
DTR isn't dropped), and then re-opened, we don't want to drop the
DTR line.  This occurs during the login process, and dropping DTR
would cause a modem to hang up.

I didn't yet use one of my AFAVLAB boards with 2.6.x until now.  The
upper 4 ports are not detected at all.  I suppose the bug was
introduced while porting the driver from 2.4.x.

Please consider applying the following patch.  It also adds support
for a new 8 port board called P030.

The current serial console code only works for ports that are either
defined in SERIAL_PORT_DFNS (and set up by serial8250_isa_init_ports())
or registered by early_serial_setup().

On ia64, SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is empty because we discover everything
via ACPI and PCI.  And we only use early_serial_setup() for one port
described by the HCDP firmware table.

This patch against 2.6.4-rc1 makes it work for any valid port.  If we
don't know about the port early, we just return -ENODEV from the
setup() function, which leaves the serial console disabled.  After the
driver has found all the ports, we try to register the serial console
again if it hasn't been enabled already.

Keith Owens noticed that the first version of this patch broke some
serial console setups because many early serial ports are registered
with "type == PORT_UNKNOWN".  So this version tests "port->ops"
instead, and Keith has confirmed that this works for him.

Only allocate the RFCOMM TTY devices when they are really in use. This
prevents the system from calling hotplug and udev 256 times to create or
remove every device node. In fact this makes the loading and unloading
of the RFCOMM module much faster.

This patch adds a notification callback to the hci_dev structure which
is used by the HCI core to tell the driver about connection creation
and clearing. It also notifies about changed voice setting.

This patch introduces a quirk flag for sending the HCI_Reset command. In
general the HCI_Reset is not needed, but some Broadcom dongles uses this
reset command to switch from HID to HCI mode. And it is not safe to send
the HCI_Reset to every Bluetooth device, because the CSR firmware prior
HCI 12.x will reset the host transport and this is wrong according to the
Bluetooth specification.

nfsd uses several different mechanisms for identifying the filesystem
from the filehandle.

This patch:
  Marks type 2 as deprecated - it wastes space, and space in the filehandle
     is not unlimited
  Adds type 3 which handles new, large device number in 32bits of space
  Tidies up the code for determining which type to use in a newly created
  filehandle - the addition of type 2 broke this code.

This fixes two errors in fixup_exception() for PnP BIOS faults:
 - Check for the correct segments used for the BIOS
 - Fix asm constraints so that EIP and ESP are properly reloaded

Patch from Deepak Saxena

The ARM makefile currently assumes that the compiler being used 
defaults to little-endian builds unless the big-endian options
are provided. This may not always be the case (my toolchains default
to BE since that's what I mostly work with) so this patch forces
endianess options to be passed to the toolchain. W/O this,
building without CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN on a big-endian toolchain 
will still result in a big-endian kernel.

Patch from Ian Campbell

__arch_strncpy_from_user needs to be exported if you build the
framebuffer console driver as a module.
