Quick fix for:
  smbiod.c:272: warning: deprecated use of label at end of compound statement

this is a small patch for baycom_ser_hdx.c  -- baycom ser12 halfduplex radio modem driver to
    1) remove call to check_region using request_region instead
    2) check the status of call to request_region
    3) release allocated region resource in case of error.

I don't have this hardware so compilation checked only.

They are harmless mostly and can happen in normal use. (from -rh)

Silence bitop on non-long argument warnings.

To make spinlock debugging work with -funsigned-char the i386 version
of spin_is_locked() needs to cast to signed char explicitly instead of
just char.  XFS needed -funsigned-char (and currently still has it),
but it doesn't evert hurt.

Here are patches for designated initializers in kernel/*.

(Included in 2.4)

Silence bitop on non-long argument warnings.

[ Not just silence warnings, but fix portability bug ]

Fix warning about undefined struct pt_regs.

Currently, all arches which support SMP define synchronize_irq(irq)
to be a real function (generally defined in arch/$(ARCH)/kernel/irq.c).
This export was removed inadvertanly I believe in the "bit IRQ lock"
removal and IRQ cleanups ChangeSet.

this just fixes a typo.

this just fixes a typo.

DaveM said this was fine.

this is a small patch for Rocketport device driver for Linux to
  1) remove two calls to check_region using request_region instead
  2) release allocated region resource in case of error.

I don't have this hardware so compilation checked only.

This patch does not remove all references to check_region in this driver
(one reference still left unchanged).

Obvious typo: checking block size but printing fragment size.

The convention is that symbols that depend on $CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL are
marked in the banner with the string (EXPERIMENTAL).  There are some
cases where that string is correctly used but is Capitalised instead of
uppercase.

The default value specified as the last word of the "choice" statement
should be a unique abbreviation of one of the sub-prompts.  Using one
of the sub-symbols is not legal.  Fix 'Type of PHY'.

[Rusty: this is 3/3 partial resends of 'PATCH: kconfig choice defaults (1/2)']

__free_pte() no longer exists in the kernel, but is still declared
from include/linux/mm.h. This patch removes that declaration.

This file was called xqm.h previously, and the inclusion guards still
think it is..

We were missing an element in the old_serial_port structure.

The following two patches seem to be needed to export the requisite
symbols needed for fully modular builds of the new serial drivers in
2.5.28.

The old form of designated initializers are obsolete: we need to
replace them with the ISO C forms before 2.6.  Gcc has always
supported both forms anyway.

From Rusty's Trivial Patch - thanks.

Trying to open a non-present port (for configuration) causes us to
to endlessly loop (by returning -ERESTARTSYS).  We should be returning
success.  This cset fixes this.

This patch add Wake-on-LAN support to the 8139cp ethernet driver.

It also converts the gccism "foo: bar" to the C99 ".foo = bar" syntax.

the attached patch fixes a comment that got incorrect via the
set_thread_area() changes.

This modifies the PPC boot sequence to "plug in" CPUs one at a
time.

This modifies the i386 boot sequence to "plug in" CPUs one at a
time.  This is the minimal change to make it work (the CPUs are
brought up as normal during the "smp_prepare_cpus()" probe phase).

This patch alters the boot sequence to "plug in" each CPU, one at a
time.  You need the patch for each architecture, as well.  The
interface used to be "smp_boot_cpus()", "smp_commence()", and each
arch implemented the "maxcpus" boot arg itself.  With this patch,
it is:
  smp_prepare_cpus(maxcpus): probe for cpus and set up cpu_possible(cpu).
  __cpu_up(cpu): called *after* initcalls, for each cpu where
     cpu_possible(cpu) is true.
  smp_cpus_done(maxcpus): called after every cpu has been brought up

 - Fix "temporal anomaly" in do_ide_request pointed out by Petr
   Vandrovec. Thanks Petr!

Small missing notch.

 - Rename ata-timings.h to timings.h. Same arguments as for agp.

 - Always include hdparm.h just before ide.h. Include them last where
   used. This is preparing to split out the IDE register declarations
   out of this file, since many other files in the kernel include it,
   which don't have anything to do with IDE.

 - Don't use the "IDE special" data type "byte". Just use the u8 data
   type for consistency with the rest of the kernel where applicable.

 - Make the bit-sliced data types in hdreg.h use the bit-slice data types
   instead of the generic ones. This makes clear that those are supposed
   to be register masks.

 - Remove pseudo headers for nonexisting support of not existing
   hardware from Big Black Boxen code.
