This patch removes warnings on non-matching parameter types to printk
and incorrect function types (n_hdlc).

From: Peter Chubb <peterc@gelato.unsw.edu.au>

Currently, the context switch counters reported by getrusage() are
always zero.  The appended patch adds fields to struct task_struct to
count context switches, and adds code to do the counting.

The patch adds 4 longs to struct task struct, and a single addition to
the fast path in schedule().

- acpi_pci_link_get_irq() returns 0 on error, not -ENODEV.

- Fix mpparse.c tpyo.

This printk doesn't impart any information.

The do_no_page() function in mm/memory.c does accounting for reserved pages
(++mm->rss), but in zap_pte_range() we don't decrement rss if the page was
reserved.

So don't account for PageReserved pages in the rss.  (Maybe it would be
better to fix zap_pte_range in the opposite direction..)

Remove CONFIG_KCORE_AOUT: the ability to present /proc/kcore in a.out
format.

I've checked with various arch maintainers.  It won't be missed.

We get a linkage error with CONFIG_KCORE_AOUT because there is no
implementation of kclist_add() and kclist_del().

Also fix a warning in the a.out version of read_kcore().

Maybe we should just remove kcore a.out support.  m68knommu and h8300 are
setting CONFIG_KCORE_AOUT in their defconfigs though.

Flesh out the bad_inode file and inode operations tables with new
additions.

From: Stephen Smalley <sds@epoch.ncsc.mil>

This patch corrects a typo in an ifdef that enables xattr operations for
special files in the ext2 code; otherwise, extended attributes cannot be
obtained or set on such inodes.

This patch reworks the SELinux binprm hook functions to use a security
structure for the linux_binprm rather than directly stuffing the security
identifier into the void* security field.  It also performs some cleanup of
the SELinux binprm hook functions, and one miscellaneous fix.

From: Stephen Smalley <sds@epoch.ncsc.mil>, James Morris <jmorris@redhat.com>

This patch corrects several format specifiers in the SELinux security server
code.

This patch changes the SELinux avtab to use vmalloc/vfree; the table is too

This patch adds the appropriate #if around the F_*64 commands in the
selinux_file_fcntl hook function.

current bk 2.6.0 corrupts my ext3 filesystems, usually in the RESYNC dir
during a bk pull.  Checking the recent changes I noticed that the one in
fs/ext3/namei.c misses an endian conversion.  The attached patch fixes that
and works fine for me since 2 days now on PPC.

attached trivial patch fixes visws subarch kernel build.  It was broken by

The conversion of reiserfs to not return errors from
writepage-outside-i_size was incorrect.  Fix.

The `user_specified' variable is used in cleanup_module() and hence cannot be
dropped from memory after module initialisation.

The truncate race fix assumed that a non-zero vma->vm_ops->nopage implies a
non-zero vma->vm_file.

The ia64 x86 emulation code breaks this assumption, so teach do_no_page() to
handle it.

Here's an _important_ kobject doc patch.

Change the permissions on /proc/kallsyms.  As David M-T points out,
it's nice for analysis tools not to need root.  Place
cond_resched() to avoid starvation problems on non-preempt.

Convert a whole bunch of struct initialisers into c99 format.

The problem in pcnet32 is, that it doesn't unregister pci, if there's no

This patch causes a regression: if CONFIG_PCI is not set, it doesn't compile
anymore. Here's a fix. I also killed a dead variable and its corresponding
warning:

From: Ronald Bultje <rbultje@ronald.bitfreak.net>

I suddenly noticed that 2.6.0-test4 seems to have removed the struct
device->name field, apparently for memory consumption reasons. Linus
changed this to pci_name((zr)->pci_dev) in my driver, and that's almost
correct, except that it is the PCI device ID, and I'm not supposed to
touch it. Also, since it's only 4 bytes, all my device names now show
like 'DC1' (this should be 'DC10plus') and alike.

The attached patch fixes this by going back to the behaviour that we
used in 2.4.x: we use a separate name field in our private driver
struct.

This patch adds some newlines between variable declarations and function
bodies. This was done on request by Francois Romieu.

This patch changes some funky coding style (a.k.a. indent artifact) in
the function zoran_irq() to a somewhat more conservative coding style.
It was noticed by Francois Romieu.

This patch adds pci_disable_device() to the card release function; we
already used pci_enable_device() in the card detection function.  This was
noticed by Francois Romieu.

This patch adds a release callback which frees the video_device struct.
This is needed to prevent freeing memory before it's not in use anymore,
as described in http://lwn.net/Articles/36850/. Without this, the driver
will give a warning when loaded. It might crash when unloading (see
article), too. The video4linux patch (by Gerd Knorr) was accepted a week
(or 2?) ago, but I forgot to adapt my driver to it.

From: Ronald Bultje <rbultje@ronald.bitfreak.net>

This patch renames the debug symbol to zr_debug because debug is already
defined somewhere else. Without it, it will cause a symbol conflict when
compiling this driver statically into the kernel. This was noticed by
several people, including Linus himself.

This patch fixes several memleaks in error cases when the setup of i2c

s/spin_lock_irqrestore/spin_unlock_irqrestore/

It has no callers, is using the non-existent spin_lock_irqrestore(), and is
obviously very untested.  Kill.
