/proc/acpi/alarm can't be set correctly, here is a sample:

[root@localhost /]# echo "2006 09" > /proc/acpi/alarm
[root@localhost /]# cat /proc/acpi/alarm
2007-12-09 09:09:09
[root@localhost /]# echo "2006 04" > /proc/acpi/alarm
[root@localhost /]# cat /proc/acpi/alarm
2007-12-04 04:04:04
[root@localhost /]#

Obviously, it is wrong, it should consider it as an invalid input.

after this patch:

[root@localhost /]# echo "2008 09" > /proc/acpi/alarm
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
[root@localhost /]#

indeed an issue that an arch needs a tlb flush before free then the arch
code needs to set tlb->need_flush before calling quicklist_free.

Recently the documentation in Documentation/nfsroot.txt was
update to note that in fact ip=off and ip=::::::off as the
latter is ignored and the default (on) is used.

This was certainly a step in the direction of reducing confusion.
But it seems to me that the code ought to be fixed up so that
ip=::::::off actually turns off ip autoconfiguration.

This patch also notes more specifically that ip=on (aka ip=::::::on)
is the default.

Some users do "modprobe ip_conntrack hashsize=...". Since we have the
module aliases this loads nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack, the
hashsize parameter is unknown for nf_conntrack_ipv4 however and makes
it fail.

Allow to specify hashsize= for both nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack_ipv4.

Note: the nf_conntrack message in the ringbuffer will display an
incorrect hashsize since nf_conntrack is first pulled in as a
dependency and calculates the size itself, then it gets changed
through a call to nf_conntrack_set_hashsize().

Commit 5a52bd4a introduced a subtle logic
change in tty_wait_until_sent().  The original version would only error out
of the 'do { ...  } while (timeout)' loop if signal_pending() evaluated to
true; a timeout or break due to an empty buffer would fall out of the loop
and into the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling.  The current
implementation will error out on either a pending signal or an empty
buffer, falling through to the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling only
on a timeout.

The ->wait_until_sent() will not be reached if the buffer empties before
timeout jiffies have elapsed.  This behavior differs from that prior to commit
5a52bd4a.

I turned this up while using a little serial download utility to bootstrap an
ARM-based eval board.  The util worked fine on 2.6.22.x, but consistently
failed on 2.6.23.x.  Once I'd determined that, I narrowed things down with git
bisect, and found the above difference in logic in tty_wait_until_sent() by
inspection.

This change reverts the logic flow in tty_wait_until_sent() to match that
prior to the aforementioned commit.

Zhe Jiang noticed that its possible to underflow pl->events in
prop_norm_percpu() when the value returned by percpu_counter_read() is less
than the error on that read and the period delay > 1.  In that case half might
not trigger the batch increment and the value will be identical on the next
iteration, causing the same half to be subtracted again and again.

Fix this by rewriting the division as a single subtraction instead of a
subtraction loop and using percpu_counter_sum() when the value returned by
percpu_counter_read() is smaller than the error.

The latter is still needed if we want pl->events to shrink properly in the
error region.
