      [PATCH] ide-floppy IOMEGA ZIP fix · b7838ca6
      Jens Axboe authored
      From ramon_garcia_f@yahoo.com:
      
       "I am experiencing lost interrupts when writting (but not when reading)
        to an IOMEGA Zip drive with the ATAPI floppy driver.
      
        The driver seems to be aware of the problem and has a workaround for
        it.  Unfortunately my drive is not detected as an IOMEGA drive.  The
        reason is that the model of my drive is "IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI Floppy"
        instead of "IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI", that is what the driver expects. "

            Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>
      
      Make local variable `count' an integer so the subsequent test for
      negativeness makes sense.

      [PATCH] ext3: i_disksize locking fix · 87e628f7
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Alex Tomas <alex@clusterfs.com>
      
      The setting of i_disksize can race against concurrent invokations of
      ext3_get_block().  Moving this inside i_truncate_sem fixes it up.

      [PATCH] silence smp_read_mpc_oem() declared static but never defined warning · df5e207c
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: William Lee Irwin III <wli@holomorphy.com>
      
      The forward static declaration in a header is a) weird and b) generates a
      warning if the inline function which needs it is not expanded.
      
      Move these things from .h into .c

      [PATCH] Don't swap to files which do not implement readpage · 81a07073
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Zwane Mwaikambo <zwane@arm.linux.org.uk>
      
      The swapon code uses read_cache_page() to access the swap header, so the
      filesystem had better implement it.

      [PATCH] Correct case sensitivity in make mandocs · ab642d48
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Michael Still <mikal@stillhq.com>
      
      The attached patch corrects case sensitivity in the mandocs make target.
      XML is case insensitive, and a bunch of the kernel-doc assumes this.  The
      makeman and splitman scripts incorrectly cared about case.  This patch also
      updates the Docbook DTD version which the script generates.

      [PATCH] SELINUX: add policyvers to selinuxfs · aa9a90bf
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: James Morris <jmorris@redhat.com>
      
      This patch adds a file to the root selinuxfs directory which returns the
      security policy version associated with the currently running kernel.  Its
      purpose is to allow scripts to determine which version of policy to load.

      [PATCH] drivers/block/initrd.c removal · 0af65687
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk
      
      * drivers/block/initrd.c gone
      
      * chunk of memory where the current tree would look for intird image is
        checked for being a valid initramfs image first; then, it is either
        unpacked (in addition to normal built-in image) or, if it wasn't a valid
        image, copied into a regular file on rootfs called /dev/initrd.  Then
        memory is freed.
      
      Result:
      
      a) we can put initramfs image in place of initrd one and kernel will DTRT.
      
      b) initrd images still work as usual; code that shoves the thing to
         ramdisk, etc.  doesn't care whether it reads from a block device or
         regular file.
      
      c) initrd.c is gone, so is fake block device and a lot of irregularities
         with it.
      
      It has been in -mm for almost two weeks with no reported problems.
