Just found I never changed type of move_page_tables when I changed it to return offset: einormous mremap moves would fail on 64-bit.

To avoid various livelocks, the writeback code parks all the dirty inodes onto sb->s_io and then works through that list until it is empty. This assumes that each inode will be moved to some other list as it is processed. But there's a loophole: if the ->writepages() implementation does nothing at all, the inode is not redirtied (which would move it to s_dirty). This causes s_io to not empty and pdflush goes nuts. So when this happens, move the inode onto s_dirty within __sync_single_inode(). Use list_move_tail() to attempt to preserve the time-ordering of the s_dirty list.

From: <mikem@beardog.cca.cpqcorp.net> This patch fixes the linux/include/cciss_ioctl.h file. When support for the cciss big ioctl was added the stucture in the header was put in the wrong place. If an application includes the file it will fail to compile.

This fixes a locking problem noted by Tim Hockin: * /proc/swaps uses seq_file code, calling seq_path() with swaplock held * seq_path() calls d_path() * d_path() calls mntput() which might_sleep() We add a new semaphore protecting insertions/removals in the set of swap components + switch of ->start()/->stop() to the same semaphore [fixes deadlocks] + trivial cleanup of ->next().

Early POWER5 revisions (<DD2.1) have a problem requiring slbie instructions to be repeated under some circumstances. The patch below adds a workaround (patch made by Anton Blanchard).

This fix is from Paul Mackerras and was applied in 2.4 sometime late last year. On ppc64, touching addresses between the highest other mapping and the stack can cause the stack to be extended way, way down, rather than causing a SEGV as you would expect. This patch only allows the stack mapping to be extended to cover addresses actually within the stack (as determined by looking at the process's r1). This fix is ported from 2.4 This fixes failures on the LTP's shmdt01, munmap01 and munmap02 tests.

In ide_init_default_irq() patch I overlooked that ppc_ide_md.init_hwif_ports() called from generic ide_init_hwif_ports() can set hwif->irq and it will be overwritten by ide_init_default_irq() if CONFIG_PCI is defined. Fix it. I will clean it up properly later after killing ide_init_hwif_ports() on ARM{26}. Doing it now is just wasted effort.
