Patch from: Oleg Drokin <green@namesys.com> It moves all the arg checking code from the start of generic_file_aio_write() into a standalone function, so other filesystems can avoid having to cut-n-paste them. The new function is exported to modules, and also inlined in filemap.c so that the current filesystems are unaffected. If someone is using ext2 and reiserfs at the same time, they lose a bit of icache.

Patch from Oleg Drokin <green@namesys.com> Move these already-inline functions to a header file so that filesystems can reuse them. For the reiserfs_file_write patch.

Patch from: Zwane Mwaikambo <zwane@holomorphy.com> Considering that smp_call_function isn't allowed to hold a lock reference and within smp_call_function we lock and unlock call_lock thus triggering a preempt point. Therefore we can't guarantee that we'll be on the same processor when we hit do_flush_tlb_all_local. void flush_tlb_all(void) { smp_call_function (flush_tlb_all_ipi,0,1,1); do_flush_tlb_all_local(); } ... smp_call_function() { spin_lock(call_lock); ... spin_unlock(call_lock); <preemption point> } ... do_flush_tlb_all_local() - possibly not executing on same processor anymore.

I'm getting a build error: fs/jfs/super.c: In function `jfs_fill_super': fs/jfs/super.c:335: parse error before `)' and it doesn't happen with gcc-3.2.x. Taking out the file-n-line fixes it up. This patch was acked by shaggy.

Robbie Williamson found some bugs in the mandatory locking implementation. This patch fixes all the problems he found: - Fix null pointer dereference caused by sys_truncate() passing a null filp. - Honour the O_NONBLOCK flag when calling ftruncate() - Local variable `fl' wasn't being initialised correctly in locks_mandatory_area() - Don't return -ENOLCK from __posix_lock_file() when FL_ACCESS is set.

We must grab lock before checking rl->count.

bio-to-request front merging works, but request-to-request has been broken due to a bit too much copy'n pasting.

Cleaner fix for the ioscheduler: - Problem with alias request, the new request gets lost. - Must always clear merge hash in move_to_dispatch()

This lets me put mca-legacy into drivers to fix them for now without worrying about losing the fact they want more attention

There are no known cards outside of labs that used i2o_lan. The only exception is the Redcreek VPN, which has its own driver anyway. Note i2o_lan.h is left as i2o_config can still understand i2o_lan devices such as the RedCreek.

The following patches should fix those last two issues - compiling boot.c for UP and compiling proc.c by default.

This is needed because mark_buffer_dirty is now checking if buffer is up to date. Noticed by Alex Tomas <bzzz@tmi.comex.ru>

New low level tms380 driver for Proteon 1392 / 1392+ cards (port from existing 2.2 kernel code) Add spinlock to fix race condition in tms380tr. Fix startup of tmsisa to not register and unregister devices multiple times, so hotplug doesn't run wild. Add support for statically compiling tmsisa into kernel. Remove unnecessary console SPAM during boot. Fixed probing of ISA devices in tmsisa. Fixed unsafe reference counting. Fixed __init function causing Oops with new module system. Rename tmsisa to skisa.
