- Replace the call to MOD_INC_USE_COUNT with a __module_get() when
  forcing the module to not be unloadable.

- Remove the check_region() calls and restructured things to only use
  request_region().

in 2.5.73, I can't read/write mount DVD-RAM via ide-scsi (only r/o mount).
Without ide-scsi, I can mount DVD-RAM read/write mode and works fine.

Add proper EFAULT reporting to sys_syslog.

This fixes some silly LTP test in the 32bit emulation of an AMD64 kernel.

Fix BUG_ON(!buffer_mapped(bh)) in submit_bh()

Reiserfs is submitting unmapped buffers into submit_bh(), which trips a
BUG.

Make sure that the address_space is capable of performing the readahead
before going in and allocating the pages.

This fixes the kernel crash in the case when we do an SIOCSIFNAME
ioctl on /proc/net/dev to rename a network interface, and
we supply a string such as "foo%sbar".

Fix PPP over async regression that the PPPoE changes caused.
Basically, PPP puts a zero length skbuff in the receive queue
as an error token, and the last change caused that to get flushed
as bad data.

Thanks to Diego Calleja Garcia, Matthew Harrell for validating this.

hwif->udma_four is always preset to 0

Make the IDE driver return the proper status return
for unhandled interrupts.

- do not enable TCQ in ide_init_drive(), its too early
- enable TCQ in __ide_dma_on() only if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_TCQ_DEFAULT=y
- try to enable TCQ only on disk drives
- correct check for two drives on one channel

This patch moves all the duplicated cdrom Kconfig bits from arch/*/Kconfig
to drivers/cdrom/Kconfig

Add return statement to tty init function of 3215 driver.

Fix typos.

Pass correct argument to SET_MODULE_OWNER.

- Simplify long busy condition handling, add quiesce/resume ioctl.
- Add sense data area to reserve/release/steal_lock ccw-chains.

- Make ccwgroup online attribute consistent with ccw online attribute.
- Add link incident record handling to channel subsystem code.
- Do path grouping only if the device driver explicitly requests it.
- Fix multicast or broadcast flood ping hand on HiperSockets.

- Add missing includes to compat_ioctl.c.
- Fix 32 bit emulation of sys_settimeofday.

- Remove unused variables from smp.c.
- Reserve system call number 110 for sys_lookup_dcache.
- Fix show_trace.
- Remove superfluous asm include file.
- Add statfs64 structure.

In general, it is more better to use get_cpu_var() and __get_cpu_var()
to access per-cpu variables on this CPU than to use smp_processor_id()
and per_cpu().  In the current default implemention they are equivalent,
but on IA64 the former is already faster, and other archs will follow.

Make the ROMfs copy in the startup code for NETtel/5272 board
conditional on actually using a ROMfs setup.

Make the ROMfs copy in the startup code for Motorola/M5206eLITE board
conditional on actually using a ROMfs setup.

Fix the m68knommu version of show_stack(). It expects the task as an
argument.

Architectures using the generic 32/64-bit ioctl() compatibility shims
will get a link error if CONFIG_VT is not defined, since the
compatbility ioctl() code calls functions in drivers/char/vt.c which
is only included in the build if CONFIG_VT is set.

This fixes the compile with a couple of #ifdefs:

This patch is to 2.5.73-bk4 and is purely cosmetic.  Please apply.
It removes the blank line after "testing the IO APIC....":

Call refrigerator() in svc_recv, so it is there for nfsd and
no longer needed explicitly in lockd.
