This patch removes BKL protection from the invocation of the super_operations ->statfs() method, and shifts it into the filesystems where necessary. Any out-of-tree filesystems may need to take the BKL in their statfs() methods if they were relying on it for synchronisation. All ->statfs() implementations have been modified to take the BKL, except for those that don't reference any external mutable data or that already have their own locking. Additionally, capifs is changed to use simple_statfs rather than its own home-grown version. The BKL change has been flagged at the end of Documentation/filesystems/porting, along with the recent change to ->permission BKL usage.

The last changes did trigger another latent bug in the inline assembly. akpm noticed it because he compiles his kernels with frame pointers.

Uninline elv_next_request() and move it to elevator.c, where it belongs. Because of CURRENT declaration, this actually saves lots of space. From Andrew.

init_rootfs() (from ramfs) doesn't appear in any header file. I didn't see any that looked like a good home, so lets put a prototype at the top of fs/namespace.c. This only use of this function is in namespace.c.

This patch makes sure the 3c509 module license is always GPL. Currently the MODULE_LICENSE() marco is only used when CONFIG_ISAPNP or CONFIG_ISAPNP_MODULE is defined. I have moved MODULE_LICENSE() to the #ifdef MODULE section at the bottom of 3c509.c. Same is true for the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro.

Not sure why I forgot to do this, but here is a small bit of tidying up of some leftover parentheses from the memlist macro removal. The parentheses are just noise and should go.

page_alloc.c does not use either slab.h or swapctl.h. This removes the inclusion of those headers from page_alloc.c

nr_free_pages() is overly verbose. The following is perhaps clearer and gets to the point with fewer lines of code and inside of 80 columns.

14 of our 17 architectures define sys_pause exactly the same way. The other three don't define it at all. I assume glibc translates pause() into sigsuspend() or something.

Three arch-determining symbols in drivers/mtd/maps/Config.in are wrong. They have apparently been generated using the sensible pattern "CONFIG_FOO" for an architecture "foo"; unfortunately the architectures are not sensible. CONFIG_SPARC should be CONFIG_SPARC32 CONFIG_I386 should be CONFIG_X86 CONFIG_SH should be CONFIG_SUPERH

Removed a spurious menu definition which was both a duplicate and had no matching "endmenu".

Removed an "endmenu" for which there was no opening "mainmenu_option".

The config language is *not* shell. The construct "[ foo ] || [ bar ]" is legal in shell but not in the config language, where we should use the equivalent "[ foo -o bar ]"

The format for the "choice" statement is: choice 'prompt' "{sub-prompt sub-symbol}*" default-value and the following is *not* legal config language (note the positioning of the closing double quote): choice 'prompt' "{sub-prompt sub-symbol}* default-value" It only happens to work because of a combination of accidental side effects of the current parsers: * unpaired sub-words inside the 2nd word are silently ignored * the missing last word is silently treated as if empty

Two symbols used in drivers/net/wan/Config.in are misspelled. CONFIG_PPP_MULTLINK should be CONFIG_PPP_MULTILINK CONFIG_PPP_SYNCTTY should be CONFIG_PPP_SYNC_TTY
