From Robert Day, through "Randy.Dunlap" <rddunlap@osdl.org> This is a patch from Robert Day that does the following: 1) shift menu item in "Processor type and features" menu 2) clean up "Bus options" menu so it's actually hierarchical Part of it (moving X86_IO_APIC around) looked a little odd to me, so I asked Roman Zippel about it, and he replied: "It's correct, although I wouldn't call it a 'design quirk'. :) It forces one to group options which belong logically together and in this case X86_IO_APIC is really a bit misplaced, even if it's not visible." I have tested it (on 2.5.68-plain) and it does indeed make the menus more hierarchical.

The percpu counters break UML SMP compilation (in current 2.5.58 bk snapshot) (first NR_CPUS undeclared in header, then dereference of incomplete structure in .c file)

Fix a bug identified by Nikita Danilov: refill_inactive_zone() is deferring the update of zone->nr_inactive and zone->nr_active for too long - it needs to be consistent whenever zone->lock is not held.

From: Ernie Petrides <petrides@redhat.com> The problem resolved by this patch is that if a root file system has an error recorded from a previous mount, and then (when rebooting) the orphan recovery procedure is initiated, the recovery is correctly skipped but the file system is incorrectly left in a writable state. This causes the subsequent fsck to fail due to the root file system being dirty, and then requires manual intervention to get the system fully booted.

From: Paul B Schroeder <paulsch@haywired.net> The following patch simply moves the 'nr_registered_attrs' and 'device_registered' variables in mwavedd.c into the MWAVE_DEVICE_DATA struct which is defined in mwavedd.h..

From: Miklos.Szeredi@eth.ericsson.se (Miklos Szeredi) This fixes a problem with method 0 of proc_file_read (when the whole file is copied to the page). The calculation of the final bytecount is wrong, and hence smaller then page size reads will give a truncated file. Current 2.4 kernels do it this way as well.

From: Paul Clements <Paul.Clements@SteelEye.com> Currently, when I build ext3 as a module, jbd gets built into the kernel proper. This trivial patch allows jbd to be built as a module when ext3 is also modular. I believe this is the intention, as this is how it works in 2.4. I've built and tested with modular jbd and ext3 on 2.5.68.

From: Dave Olien <dmo@osdl.org> Christoph submitted a patch to linus last week fixing up some DAC960 driver entry points. That patch will OOPS during boot on version 2 controller types. Christoph's version of the disk_size() function was dereferencing a NULL pointer in it's "else" clause. Christoph's patch hasn't appeared in linus's BK tree yet. So, I'm resending Christoph's orignal patch with my fix to disk_size() included. This patch can be applied to the driver in Linus's BK tree from April 28. Here's Christoph's original description of his patch: Some grepping showed that DAC960's open routine was duplicating parts of check_disk_change(). I went on fixing this by implementing a media_changed method and making DAC960_Open use it. While looking at the surrounding code I noticed that (a) all methods weren't using the private data the upperlayer hands to it properly, but instead using kdev_t-based indexes (b) DAC960_Open/DAC960_Release was keeping never used counters (c) DAC960_Open was doing tons of checks the upperlayer already does (d) DAC960_Release was entirely superflous. The patch below corrects that and rewrites the block entry points into readable code - 100 LOC are gone and the same amount replaced by readable code.

Fix a few unused var warnings in drivers/block/xd.c

From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> apm.c:suspend() calls set_system_power_state() under (effectively) spin_lock_irq(i8253_lock). But set_system_power_state() unconditionally enables interrupts, in apm_bios_call_simple(). This generates nasty warnings from the uniprocessor spinlock debugging code, and would be deadlocky if APM worked on SMP. So drop the locks around the set_system_power_state() call.

Fixes a bug spotted by Alexey Mahotkin <alexm@hsys.msk.ru>: the slab-internal SLAB_NO_GROW bit clashes with __GFP_NORETRY. Fix that up so it won't happen again by moving the bit layout into gfp.h.

Straightforward since SNAP uses list macros already. Tested by bringing up/down Appletalk on SMP system and making sure packets get through. This is the last subsystem that depends on br_lock before IPV4,IPV6 can be converted.

This one-liner is required for PCI serial ports that have multiple MMIO ports off a single PCI BAR. Calls to request_mem_resource() fail after the first one otherwise. Patch against 2.5.67. Thanks,
