      [PATCH] autofs_wqt_t for ppc64 · 856e7226
      Rusty Russell authored
      Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>: Fix autofs on ppc64:
      
        Define autofs_wqt_t to be an int on ppc64, just like the other mixed
        32/64 bit archs do.

      [PATCH] 2.5.18 IDE 71 · 4478f040
      Martin Dalecki authored
       - Rewritten Artop host chip driver by Vojtech Pavlik. His log entries are:
      
         Cleanup whitespace.
      
         Remove superfluous chip entries in chip table.  Remove global variables to
         allow more than one controller.  Remove other forgotten stuff.
      
         This is a new driver for the Artop (Acard) controllers. It's completely
         untested, as I have never seen the hardware. However, I suspect it is much
         less broken than the previous one ...
      
         UDMA33 controller cannot detect 80-wire cable.
      
       - Separate ioctl handling out from ide.c. It's big enough.
      
       - Move atapi_read and atapi_write to the new atapi module.  Fix the declaration
         of those functions. The data buffer did have the void * type!
      
       - Separate module handling code out from actual transfer handling code in to a
         new module called main.c. Slowly we are at the stage where the code indeed
         has to be organized logically and not just "sporadically" as was the case
         before.
      
       - Apply patch by Adam Richter for the ide-scsi.c attach method implementation.
         This particular driver is still broken due to generic SCSI layer issues.
      
       - Apply true modularization patch for qd65xx.c by Samuel Thibault. Here
         are his notes about it:
      
         Then, patch-modularize-2.[45] is a proposal for modularizing qd65xx.o. As a
         single module, one can choose to insmod it before being able to do some
         hdparm -p /dev/hd[a-d]. But one can't remove it while tuned, since selectproc
         may be needed.
      
         I am sorry I wasn't able to test it under 2.5 series, lacking a functionning
         kernel for my test computer, but it seemed to work perfectly under 2.4
         series, and patches are almost the same.
      
       - Move PCI device id's to where they belong. Patch by Vojtech Pavlik.
      
       - Don't use BH_Lock in ide-tape.c - somehow this driver scares me sometimes.
