      [PATCH] fix OSS opl3sa2 compilation · 4e3f87f6
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Zwane Mwaikambo <zwane@linuxpower.ca>
      
      There was a 2.4 merge from Alan Cox, but a few #ifdef's got shuffled around
      in the process, resulting in a broken build for !CONFIG_PM

      [PATCH] cpia driver __exit fix · 30b85a5c
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de>
      
      This driver was bogusly relying on the dropping of the __exit section at link
      time.  cpia_exit() is calling proc_cpia_destroy(), which doesn't even exist
      if !CONFIG_MODULE.

      [PATCH] Fix .altinstructions linking failures · 00b31e9a
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de>
      
      Some configs didn't link anymore because they got references from
      .altinstructions to __exit functions.  Fixing it at the linker level is not
      easily possible.  This patch just discards .text.exit at runtime instead of
      link time to avoid this.
      
      It will also fix a related problem with .eh_frame in modern gcc (so far only
      observed on x86-64, but could happen on i386 too)

      [PATCH] generic subarchitecture for ia32 · 441d6fd9
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de>
      
      This patch adds an generic x86 subarchitecture. It is intended to provide
      an dynamic interface for APIC drivers. There are already three subarchitectures
      (bigsmp, summit, default) that only differ in how they drive the local APIC.
      A fourth - Unisys ES7000 - is scheduled to be merged soon.
      
      The subarchitecture concept separated this nicely, but it has the big
      drawback that they are compile time options. A Linux vendor cannot
      ship own binary kernel rpms for all of these machines. Runtime probing
      is needed instead.
      
      This patch adds a new "generic" subarchitecture that just acts as a
      dynamic switching layer for APIC drivers. It only tries to virtualize
      the APICs, no attempt is made to cover further incompatiblities.
      This means machines like the Visual Workstation, pc9800 or
      Voyager are not covered; but these are unlikely to be supported by
      binary distributions anyways.
      
      The generic arch reuses the existing interface in mach_ipi / mach_mpparse.h /
      mach_apic.h and just pulls it using some macros into an "struct genapic"
      object. The main APIC code does not recognize it, it is all hidden
      in the mach-generic include files.
      
      Auto detection of APIC types is supported in the usual way used by
      existing ports like Summit - checking ACPI or mptables for specific
      signatures - or it can be specified by the user using a new "apic="
      boot option. I also moved the DMI scan to before the generic
      subarchitecture probe, so DMI could be used in future too to probe
      specific machines.
      
      Some minor hacks were needed to avoid circular declaration of a few
      symbols, but overall it's fairly clean.
      
      The patch has been tested on a Summit machine, an generic 4 virtual CPUs
      Xeon and on an ES7000.
