51b26ada79 x86: unify arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds
Look at the:

	diff -u arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds

output and realize that they're basially exactly the same except for
trivial naming differences, and the fact that the 64-bit version has a
"pgtable" thing.

So unify them.

There's some trivial cleanup there (make the output format a Kconfig thing
rather than doing #ifdef's for it, and unify both 32-bit and 64-bit BSS
end to "_ebss", where 32-bit used to use the traditional "_end"), but
other than that it's really very mindless and straigt conversion.

For example, I think we should aim to remove "startup_32" vs "startup_64",
and just call it "startup", and get rid of one more difference. I didn't
do that.

Also, notice the comment in the unified vmlinux.lds.S talks about
"head_64" and "startup_32" which is an odd and incorrect mix, but that was
actually what the old 64-bit only lds file had, so the confusion isn't
new, and now that mixing is arguably more accurate thanks to the
vmlinux.lds.S file being shared between the two cases ;)

0a3ec21fcd x86: beautify vmlinux_64.lds.S
Beautify vmlinux_64.lds.S:

 - Use tabs for indent
 - Located curly braces like in C code
 - Rearranged a few comments

There is no functional changes in this patch

The beautification is done to prepare a unification
of the _32 and the _64 variants of the linker scripts.

15fbc93857 [ARM] pxa/zylonite: fix the issue of unused SDATA_IN_1 pin get AC97 not working
GPIO17_SDATA_IN_1 and GPIO36_SDATA_IN_1 are originally designed for the 2nd
codec but unused on the board, yet they are initialized incorrectly by the
bootloader as the SDATA_IN_1 alternate function, thus causing AC97 fail to
work. Fix this issue by configuring these pins as normal GPIO to avoid the
noise from these pins being treated as signals from the 2nd codec.

314eeac9e3 dma-debug: remove broken dma memory leak detection for 2.6.30
The feature needs some more work because the notfier which is used to
check for pending allocations is called before the device drivers
->remove() function. Therefore this feature reports false positives.

A real fix for this issue is to introduce a new notifier event which sent
_after_ the driver has deinitialized itself. That will done for the next
kernel version.

[ Impact: reduce the scope of CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y checks ]

c80d471a47 Add new HEAD_TEXT_SECTION macro.
This patch is preparation for replacing all uses of ".head.text" or
".text.head" in the kernel with macros, so that the section name can
later be changed without having to touch a lot of the kernel.

Since some linker scripts do more complex things than referencing
HEAD_TEXT, we add a HEAD_TEXT_SECTION macro that just contains the
actual name.

I've defined HEAD_TEXT_SECTION in a new header,
include/linux/section-names.h, so that this section name only needs to
appear in one place.  I anticipate creating similar macro structures
for a number of other section names.

The long-term goal here is to be able to change the kernel's magic
section names to those that are compatible with -ffunction-sections
-fdata-sections.  This requires renaming all magic sections with names
of the form ".text.foo".

In addition, ep93xx_rtc_init() is updated to use
platform_driver_probe() instead of platform_driver_register().

Also, the device_create_file() calls are now properly checked for
error conditions.  The created sysfs files are also now removed
when the driver is removed.

The version number for the driver has been bumped at the request

701970b3a8 tracing/events: make modules have their own file_operations structure
For proper module reference counting, the file_operations that modules use
must have the "owner" field set to the module. Unfortunately, the trace events
use share file_operations. The same file_operations are used by all both
kernel core and all modules.

This patch makes the modules allocate their own file_operations and
copies the functions from the core kernel. This allows those file
operations to be owned by the module.

Care is taken to free this code on module unload.

Thanks to Greg KH for reminding me that file_operations must be owned
by the module to have reference counting take place.

a63c9eb2ce ext4: ext4_mark_recovery_complete() doesn't need to use lock_super
The function ext4_mark_recovery_complete() is called from two call
paths: either (a) while mounting the filesystem, in which case there's
no danger of any other CPU calling write_super() until the mount is
completed, and (b) while remounting the filesystem read-write, in
which case the fs core has already locked the superblock.  This also
allows us to take out a very vile unlock_super()/lock_super() pair in
ext4_remount().

adc667e84f vlan: update vlan carrier state for admin up/down
Currently, the VLAN event handler does not adjust the VLAN
device's carrier state when the real device or the VLAN device is set
administratively up or down.

	The following patch adds a transfer of operating state from the
real device to the VLAN device when the real device is administratively
set up or down, and sets the carrier state up or down during init, open
and close of the VLAN device.

	This permits observers above the VLAN device that care about the
carrier state (bonding's link monitor, for example) to receive updates
for administrative changes by more closely mimicing the behavior of real
devices.

114e9fc907 ext4: Remove outdated comment about lock_super()
ext4_fill_super() is no longer called by read_super(), and it is no
longer called with the superblock locked.  The
unlock_super()/lock_super() is no longer present, so this comment is
entirely superfluous.

8df9675f8b ext4: Avoid races caused by on-line resizing and SMP memory reordering
Ext4's on-line resizing adds a new block group and then, only at the
last step adjusts s_groups_count.  However, it's possible on SMP
systems that another CPU could see the updated the s_group_count and
not see the newly initialized data structures for the just-added block
group.  For this reason, it's important to insert a SMP read barrier
after reading s_groups_count and before reading any (for example) the
new block group descriptors allowed by the increased value of
s_groups_count.

Unfortunately, we rather blatently violate this locking protocol
documented in fs/ext4/resize.c.  Fortunately, (1) on-line resizes
happen relatively rarely, and (2) it seems rare that the filesystem
code will immediately try to use just-added block group before any
memory ordering issues resolve themselves.  So apparently problems
here are relatively hard to hit, since ext3 has been vulnerable to the
same issue for years with no one apparently complaining.

9ca92389c5 ext4: Use separate super_operations structure for no_journal filesystems
By using a separate super_operations structure for filesystems that
have and don't have journals, we can simply ext4_write_super() ---
which is only needed when no journal is present --- and ext4_freeze(),
ext4_unfreeze(), and ext4_sync_fs(), which are only needed when the
journal is present.

7234ab2a55 ext4: Fix and simplify s_dirt handling
The s_dirt flag wasn't completely handled correctly, but it didn't
really matter when journalling was enabled.  It turns out that when
ext4 runs without a journal, we don't clear s_dirt in places where we
should have, with the result that the high-level write_super()
function was writing the superblock when it wasn't necessary.

So we fix this by making ext4_commit_super() clear the s_dirt flag,
and removing many of the other places where s_dirt is manipulated.
When journalling is enabled, the s_dirt flag might be left set more
often, but s_dirt really doesn't matter when journalling is enabled.

e2d670523c ext4: Simplify ext4_commit_super()'s function signature
The ext4_commit_super() function took both a struct super_block * and
a struct ext4_super_block *, but the struct ext4_super_block can be
derived from the struct super_block.

c5ca7c7636 ext4: Fallback to vmalloc if kmalloc can't allocate s_flex_groups array
For very large filesystems, the s_flex_groups array can get quite big.
For example, a filesystem that can be resized up to 16TB will have
8192 flex groups (assuming the default flex_bg size of 16), so the
array is 96k, which is *very* marginal for kmalloc().  On the other
hand, a 160GB filesystem without the resize_inode feature will only
require 960 bytes.  So we try to allocate the array first using
kmalloc(), and if that fails, we'll try to use vmalloc() instead.

29fa89d088 ext4: Mark the unwritten buffer_head as mapped during write_begin
Setting BH_Unwritten buffer_heads as BH_Mapped avoids multiple
(unnecessary) calls to get_block() during the call to the write(2)
system call.  Setting BH_Unwritten buffer heads as BH_Mapped requires
that the writepages() functions can handle BH_Unwritten buffer_heads.

After this commit, things work as follows:

ext4_ext_get_block() returns unmapped, unwritten, buffer head when
called with create = 0 for prealloc space. This makes sure we handle
the read path and non-delayed allocation case correctly.  Even though
the buffer head is marked unmapped we have valid b_blocknr and b_bdev
values in the buffer_head.

ext4_da_get_block_prep() called for block resrevation will now return
mapped, unwritten, new buffer_head for prealloc space. This avoids
multiple calls to get_block() for write to same offset. By making such
buffers as BH_New, we also assure that sub-block zeroing of buffered
writes happens correctly.

8fb0e34248 vfs: Add BUG_ON for delayed and unwritten flags in submit_bh()
The BH_Delay and BH_Unwritten flags should never leak out to
submit_bh().  So add some BUG_ON() checks to submit_bh so we can get a
stack trace and determine how and why this might have happened.

(Note that only XFS and ext4 use these buffer head flags, and XFS does
not use submit_bh().  So this patch should only modify behavior for
ext4.)

79ffab3439 ext4: Properly initialize the buffer_head state
These struct buffer_heads are allocated on the stack (and hence are
initialized with stack garbage).  They are only used to call a
get_blocks() function, so that's mostly OK, but b_state must be
initialized to be 0 so we don't have any unexpected BH_* flags set by
accident, such as BH_Unwritten or BH_Delay.

060fa5c83e tracing/events: reuse trace event ids after overflow
With modules being able to add trace events, and the max trace event
counter is 16 bits (65536) we can overflow the counter easily
with a simple while loop adding and removing modules that contain
trace events.

This patch links together the registered trace events and on overflow
searches for available trace event ids. It will still fail if
over 65536 events are registered, but considering that a typical
kernel only has 22000 functions, 65000 events should be sufficient.
