OK, Linus, you are right... there are enough instances of this we are
not going to find them all (although I suspect Andrew's slab.c fixes
will cover most of the cases).  Further, I think we can should actually
purposely call preempt_schedule() in certain cases after interrupt
reenable to check for reschedules...

Let's just make it a rule "no preemption if interrupts are off" and
enforce that.

This fixes various instances of the interrupt flag variable not being
the proper `unsigned long', most notably kernel/softirq.c ...

This is a cleanup of the sigio/sigurg code.

Summary:
  o Removed sk->proc, SIGURG now sent via vfs, credentials checked
    during delivery.
  o SIOCSPGRP etc. ioctls use vfs, and work now for SIGIO as well
    as SIGURG.
  o Removed socket fcntl code.
  o Consolidate lsm file_set_fowner() hooks.
  o Fixed fowner race.
  o Fixed associated mainline memory leak in fcntl_dirnotify().

contortions instead of just calling "end_that_request_first()" with
the proper sector count.

This was _bad_. Major floppy corruption, and possibly the reason
for other block device corruption for any driver that generated
partial results for a block device request.

ptrace.h needs struct task_struct, so we need to include <linux/sched.h>.

bools don't have depencies, only dep_bools do.  Use three-space indents.

#define __NO_VERSION__ has been unnecessary for a long time, so here it

Based on work done by Solar Designer for 2.2

Defining CONFIG_DEVFS_FS in two different places does not work correctly.
Nobody objected on linux-ia64, so I just removed the statements
unconditionally enabling devfs on IA64/SNI.

Pointed out by Greg Banks.

I don't know if the current form is harmless or not, but it is
definitely incorrect.  The patch below corrects the compile failure, as
well as the multi-statement macro defines used in bare if statements;
please apply.

The BUG_ON(p->ptrace) will be called if the CLONE_DETACH process is
traced.  This patch removes BUG_ON(p->ptrace), and also removes a
workaround for it in sys_wait4().

driver remove the ftont of the queue from the request list
and cache it in 'current_req'.

This simplifies the driver and should be a lot more robust.

Still, I'll probably go blind just for _looking_ at the dang
sources of this thing. Whee.

This should finally fix the 2.5.x floppy driver.
