This should fix some picky USB devices.

From Tom Rini <trini@kernel.crashing.org> On the MBX the kernel made an assumption about where the MAC address would be in the VPD (Vital Product Data). However, the documentation for the firmware (EPPC-Bug) describes the format of the VPD and makes no guarrantees about the location of any VPD record. It does however describe the format of each record type and the MAC address record will be of type '08' and of size 6. This changes the code so that instead of assuming a position, it searches for the record, which I assume is also what EPPC-Bug does.

From: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@zytor.com> Apparently, on x86-64, the stack isn't always aligned properly (16 bytes) in the kernel at the moment. This causes the RAID-6 code to crash the system. This patch is a workaround for that; the right thing is to muck with the assembly entrypoints to enforce proper stack alignment. However, that's not anything I feel comfortable doing in an evening, especially since I don't have a machine on which I can test the resulting kernels.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> SCLP console/tty fixes: - Fix incorrect state change of SCLP_RUNNING flag in interrupt handler - Suppress emission of empty buffers to prevent stack overflow - Fix off by one error in sclp_write (used to return # of chars written + 1) - Prevent sclp_tty_write_string from waiting in interrupt (during flush) - Fix deadlock after TIOCSCLPSNL ioctl - Fix sclp_tty_chars_in_buffer calculation

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> s390 inline assembly bug-fixes: - Add memory barriers to spinlocks, atomic variable functions and to test_and_{set,clear,change}_bit. - Add "=m" and "m" contraints to tell gcc that the content of a variable is in fact used. - Replace "+m" constraints by "=m" on the output and "m" on the input list. - Use c-implemtation for ffz and __ffs. - Use generic c-implemtation for ffs and fls.

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> The current SLB handling code has a number of problems: - We loop trying to find an empty SLB entry before deciding to cast one out. On large working sets this really hurts since the SLB is always full and we end up looping through all 64 entries unnecessarily. - During castout we currently invalidate the entry we are replacing. This is to avoid a nasty race where the entry is in the ERAT but not the SLB and another cpu does a tlbie that removes the ERAT at a critical point. If this race is fixed the SLB can be removed. - The SLB prefault code doesnt work properly The following patch addresses all the above concerns and adds some more optimisations: - feature nop out some segment table only code - slb invalidate the kernel segment on context switch (avoids us having to slb invalidate at each cast out) - optimise flush on context switch, the lazy tlb stuff avoids it being called when going from userspace to kernel thread, but it gets called when going to kernel thread to userspace. In many cases we are returning to the same userspace task, we now check for this and avoid the flush - use the optimised POWER4 mtcrf where possible

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Lets make a decent attempt to find out where your console is. The new preferred_console stuff is pretty nice.

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Small obvious fix to ppc32_timer_create. Since sys_timer_create access structures we pass on the stack, we need set_fs(KERNEL_DS).

This forward ports a few important fixes from the 2.4 driver. This changes have been well tested. Changelog: - Update maintainer email address - Mark pci_device_id list with __devinitdata. - Set correct protocol type on packet receive (this caused the kernel to drop all packets received) - Add #ifdef DEBUG around debug printk() - ioctl: Add missing size checks before copying data from userspace.

We used to have code to allow binaries linked against glibc to run, when glibc itself contained some FP instructions (for PCS stack frames for functions like printf and scanf) thereby allowing FP emulators like nwfpe to be built as modules. This has proved to be unreliable with later compilers, so support for this was dropped a while ago. Since no one complained, we can finally remove the dead code. (NB. a klibc based module-init-tools shouldn't suffer from this problem.)

According to x86, the pointers for bitops are supposed to be qualified with volatile. Make ARM bitops reflect this.

Remove usage of tsk->used_math on ARM, moving the status to an array of co-processor usage. (ARM can have up to 15 co-processors providing various extra facilities such as SIMD, VFP or FP.)
