The duplication was a merge error: it was added via -mm by commit v2.6.25-7262-g2850699c, "sysfs: sysfs_update_group stub for CONFIG_SYSFS=n" a day before v2.6.26-rc1, but a day before that the same commit was already merged upstream via the sysfs tree, with commit v2.6.25-7211-g1cbfb7a5.

The kernel module loader used to be much too happy to allow loading of modules for the wrong kernel version by default. For example, if you had MODVERSIONS enabled, but tried to load a module with no version info, it would happily load it and taint the kernel - whether it was likely to actually work or not! Generally, such forced module loading should be considered a really really bad idea, so make it conditional on a new config option (MODULE_FORCE_LOAD), and make it default to off. If somebody really wants to force module loads, that's their problem, but we should not encourage it. Especially as it happened to me by mistake (ie regular unversioned Fedora modules getting loaded) causing lots of strange behavior. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This make sure not to schedule in atomic during fx_init.

The in-kernel PIT emulation ignores pending timers if operating under mode 4, which for example DragonFlyBSD uses (and Plan9 too, apparently). Mode 4 seems to be similar to one-shot mode, other than the fact that it starts counting after the next CLK pulse once programmed, while mode 1 starts counting immediately, so add a FIXME to enhance precision. Fixes sourceforge bug 1952988. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Acked-by: Sheng Yang <sheng.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

The recent changes allowing memory operands with lmsw and smsw left lmsw with writeback enabled. Since lmsw has no oridinary destination operand, the dst pointer was not initialized, resulting in an oops. Close the hole by disabling writeback for lmsw. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

A very small cleanup for mq_open. We do not have to call set_close_on_exit if we create the file descriptor right away with the flag set. We have a function for this now.

This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with one unified implementation. This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated code. It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers) I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL isn't needed. The arch maintainer can easily do it if there are really no obstacles. Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When a netdev is moved across namespaces with the 'dev_change_net_namespace' function, the 'device_rename' function is used to fixup kobject and refresh the sysfs tree. The device_rename function will call kobject_rename and this one will check if there is an object with the same name and this is the case because we are renaming the object with the same name. The use of 'device_rename' seems for me wrong because we usually don't rename it but just move it across namespaces. As we just want to do a mini "netdev_[un]register", IMO the functions 'netdev_[un]register_kobject' should be used instead, like an usual network device [un]registering. This patch replace device_rename by netdev_unregister_kobject, followed by netdev_register_kobject. The netdev_register_kobject will call device_initialize and will raise a warning indicating the device was already initialized. In order to fix that, I split the device initialization into a separate function and use it together with 'netdev_register_kobject' into register_netdevice. So we can safely call 'netdev_register_kobject' in 'dev_change_net_namespace'. This fix will allow to properly use the sysfs per namespace which is coming from -mm tree.

The new RV2P firmware fixes 2 issues: 1. The jumbo rx buffer page size is now configurable and set to the proper PAGE_SIZE. Before, it was assumed to be always 4K. 2. Driver sometimes would crash when receiving jumbo packets mixed with firmware management packets. This was caused by the old firmware DMA'ing to the wrong address.
