7f7c08dfdf Simplify test for RAM devices
mtdblock is the only user of aggregate capabilities in mtd.  This is clearly
bogus and should be changed.  In particular, it tries to determine whether
the device in question is a piece of RAM.  For every single driver that fits
the current criteria, an easier test would be to check for the type being
MTD_RAM.

d96fb997c6 [JFFS2] Fix race in post-mount node checking
For a while now, we've postponed CRC-checking of data nodes to be done
by the GC thread, instead of being done while the user is waiting for
mount to finish. The GC thread would iterate through all the inodes on
the system and check each of their data nodes. It would skip over inodes
which had already been used or were already being read in by
read_inode(), because their data nodes would have been examined anyway.

However, we could sometimes reach the end of the for-each-inode loop and
still have some unchecked space left, if an inode we'd skipped was
_still_ in the process of being read. This fixes that race by actually
waiting for read_inode() to finish rather than just moving on.

Thanks to Ladislav Michl for coming up with a reproducible test case and
helping to track it down.

9e2feace1a e1000: Buffer optimizations for small MTU
Remove multi-descriptor support from legacy recieve path

Add memory usage efficiency by using more correct size descriptors for
small MTU sizes and optimize using LPE for <= 1522 byte frame sizes

An extra performance fix that effected our TCP window size growth
as a receiver.  Set our initial buffer to be 128 bytes instead of 256
to prevent over-socket charge when truesize is computed in the stack.
old way: truesize = 256 + l1 = 256 + 1460 = 1716
new way: truesize = 128 + l1 = 128 + 1460 = 1588
The magic value that we can't cross is 1648.

  Date:   Thu Mar 23 16:50:25 2006 +0100
  
      [PATCH] i2c-parport: Make type parameter mandatory
      
      This patch forces the user to specify what type of adapter is present when
      loading i2c-parport or i2c-parport-light.  If none is specified, the driver
      init simply fails - instead of assuming adapter type 0.
      
      This alleviates the sometimes lengthy boot time delays which can be caused
      by accidentally building one of these into a kernel along with several i2c
      slave drivers that have lengthy probe routines (e.g. hwmon drivers).
      
      Kconfig and documentation updated accordingly.

      dmi_scan.c is arch-independent and is used by i386, x86_64, and ia64.
      Currently all three arches compile it from arch/i386, which means that ia64
      and x86_64 depend on things in arch/i386 that they wouldn't otherwise care
      about.
      
      This is simply "mv arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c drivers/firmware/" (removing
      trailing whitespace) and the associated Makefile changes.  All three
      architectures already set CONFIG_DMI in their top-level Kconfig files.

In scsi world they misname their variables *_template or
*_sht so add these to list of variables that may have references

Randy.Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> also pointed out a scsi driver
with many references to .exit.text from .rodata. This is compiler
generated references and we already ignore these for .init.text, so
ignore them for .exit.text also.

f3a0592b37 [ATM]: clip causes unregister hang
If Classical IP over ATM module is loaded, its neighbor table gets
populated when permanent neighbor entries are created; but these entries
are not flushed when the device is removed. Since the entry never gets
flushed the unregister of the network device never completes.

This version of the patch also adds locking around the reference to
the atm arp daemon to avoid races with events and daemon state changes.
(Note: barrier() was never really safe)

2717096ab4 [XFRM]: Fix aevent timer.
Send aevent immediately if we have sent nothing since last timer and
this is the first packet.

Fixes a corner case when packet threshold is very high, the timer low
and a very low packet rate input which is bursty.

cdb8c2a6d8 [SCSI] dc395x: dynamically map scatter-gather for PIO
The current dc395x driver uses PIO to transfer up to 4 bytes which do not
get transferred by DMA (under unclear circumstances). For this the driver
uses page_address() which is broken on highmem. Apart from this the
actual calculation of the virtual address is wrong (even without highmem).
So, e.g., for reading it reads bytes from the driver to a wrong address
and returns wrong data, I guess, for writing it would just output random
data to the device.

The proper fix, as suggested by many, is to dynamically map data using
kmap_atomic(page, KM_BIO_SRC_IRQ) / kunmap_atomic(virt). The reason why it
has not been done until now, although I've done some preliminary patches
more than a year ago was that nobody interested in fixing this problem was
able to reliably reproduce it. Now it changed - with the help from
Sebastian Frei (CC'ed) I was able to trigger the PIO path. Thus, I was
also able to test and debug it.

There are 4 cases when PIO is used in dc395x - data-in / -out with and
without scatter-gather. I was able to reproduce and test only data-in with
and without SG. So, the data-out path is still untested, but it is also
somewhat simpler than the data-in. Fredrik Roubert (also CC'ed) also had
PIO triggering on his system, and in his case it was data-out without SG.
It would be great if he could test the attached patch on his system, but
even if he cannot, I would still request to apply the patch and just wait
if anybody cries...

Implementation: I put 2 new functions in scsi_lib.c and their declarations
in scsi_cmnd.h. I exported them without _GPL, although, I don't feel
strongly about that - not many drivers are likely to use them. But there
is at least one more - I want to use them in tmscsim.c. Whether these are
the right files for the functions and their declarations - not sure
either. Actually, they are not scsi-specific, so, might go somewhere
around other scattergather magic? They are not platform specific either,
and most SG functions are defined under arch/*/... As these issues were
discussed previously there were some more routines suggested to manipulate
scattergather buffers, I think, some of them were needed around
crypto code... So, might be a common place reasonable, like
lib/scattergather.c? I am open here.
