M68k: Remove superfluous whitespace that hurts my eyes with `let c_space_errors=1' in vim. This includes correcting trailing whitespace and spaces in front of tabs. `diff -urNbB' shows no difference before/after.

* bug fix: make sure 'nsect' member of struct ata_queued_cmd is initialized each time a cmd is re-used. Only affects PIO data xfers, which nobody uses. * slightly change the way a device's flags are printed out. currently the only flag is 'lba48', but soon 'wcache' will appear also. * add WB-cache-related constants and macros to linux/ata.h

At the moment, on PPC64, the instruction we use for wmb() doesn't order cacheable stores vs. non-cacheable stores. (It does order cacheable vs. cacheable and non-cacheable vs. non-cacheable.) This causes problems in the sort of driver code that writes stuff into memory, does a wmb(), then a writel to the device to start a DMA operation to read the stuff it has just written to memory. This patch solves the problem by adding a sync instruction before the store in the write* and out* macros. The sync is a full barrier that orders all loads and stores, cacheable or not. The patch also moves the eieio instruction that we had after the store to before the load in the read* and in* macros. With the sync before the store, we don't need an eieio as well in a sequence of stores, but we still need an eieio between a store and a load. I think it is better to do this than to turn wmb() into a full memory barrier (a sync instruction) because the full barrier is slow and isn't needed with the sync in the write*/out* macros. This way, write*/out* are fully ordered with respect to preceding loads and stores, which is what driver writers expect, and we avoid penalizing users of wmb() who are only doing cacheable stores.

ntfs_fill_super() and ntfs_read_inode_mount() cleaned up. Removed the kludges around the first iget() on NTFS. Instead of playing with (re)setting ->s_op we have the MFT_FILE inode set up by explicit new_inode()/ set ->i_ino/insert_inode_hash()/call ntfs_read_inode_mount() directly. That kills the need of second super_operations and it allows to return error from ntfs_read_inode_mount() without resorting to ugly "poisoning" tricks.

From: "Andrew Vasquez" <andrew.vasquez@qlogic.com> Ok, well there aren't too many folks using an QLA2100 in a fabric topology, if there were, they wouldn't have gotten very far in the driver load sequence. I've been able to scrape-up a QLA2100, 1Gig switch, and an JBOD. Upon loading the 8.00.00b12k driver, the firmware successfully logs into the switch, the driver receives a LOOP_UP event, but, the kernel panics due to NULL pointer dereference while trying to perform an RFT_ID -- the attached patch against current scsi-misc-2.6 fixes that problem.

The patch to close all the open/close/hotplug races in sr left the module refcounting broken so that the ULD housing the CD device now can't be removed until the device itself is removed. This patch (structurally identical to the one for sd.c to perform the same function) fixes the module refcounting.

From: Adam Lackorzynski <adam@os.inf.tu-dresden.de> one of the macros for get_thread_area extracts the wrong bit. The "32bit" field is in bit 22, not 23 (as can be seen in desc.h). [ Fix ia64/x86-64 too, while we're at it. Linus ]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de> Set up SMT for the domain scheduler on x86-64. This way the scheduling works better on HyperThreading aware systems; in particular it will use both physical CPUs before sharing two virtual CPUs on the same package. This improves performance considerably in some cases. Based on the i386 code and a previous patch from Suresh B. Siddha.

From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> PowerPC64 ABI has ".funcname" (the actual function) and "funcname" (the function descriptor) and we strip off the dots in "dedotify" called from module_frob_arch_sections(). We need to also de-dotify the corresponding names in the __version section. Actually has nothing to do with __down, it's just that we only print the first symbol whose version is missing.

From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> It turns out that we are not handling the TABDLY bits of the termios c_oflag field correctly on PPC, PPC64 and Alpha. These three architectures have a value for XTABS that is different from the TAB3 value. POSIX specifies that setting the TABDLY field to TAB3 should result in tabs being expanded to spaces. In n_tty.c:opost() we check for O_TABDLY(tty) == XTABS, which is fine on most architectures because they have XTABS == TAB3. I think the right thing to do is just to change the definition of XTABS to be the same as TAB3 on these architectures. The patch below does this for PPC and PPC64 (and I suggest the Alpha maintainer should do the same). At the moment, applications using either the XTABS or TAB3 values won't get the expected behaviour. With this patch, apps that use TAB3 will get the expected behaviour. Apps that use XTABS will need to be recompiled (but note that the POSIX-specified name to use is TAB3 not XTABS).

Peter Braam said: I would just like to say that I have no difficulties with intermezzo being rm -rf'd. There are probably only a handful of users. In the past 4 years nobody has supported InterMezzo sufficiently for it to become successful. I have been fortunate to get really good support for the Lustre project. So I have focussed on that. Lustre 1.X has become really solid. The disconnected operation, caching and mirroring functionality of InterMezzo will become available in Lustre as a new feature in version 2. So I see no point in keeping InterMezzo if it is a nuisance. The patch removes the references to intermezzo. Please do a `bk rm' of fs/intermezzo.
