      [PATCH] M68k superfluous whitespace · 141baf80
      Geert Uytterhoeven authored
      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.

      [libata] preparation for writeback caching support · 8962c315
      Jeff Garzik authored
      * 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

      [PATCH] ppc64: extra barrier in I/O operations · 307b7297
      Paul Mackerras authored
      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.

      [PATCH] ntfs cleanup · fec95414
      Alexander Viro authored
      	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.
