A file for vendor, model, rev, and unique_id is added for each logical
drive under directory /sys/bus/pci/devices//ccissX/cXdY. Where X =
the controller (or host) number and Y is the logical drive number.A link from /sys/bus/pci/devices//ccissX/cXdY/block:cciss!cXdY to
/sys/block/cciss!cXdY/device is also created. A bus is created in

When using ftrace=function on the command line to trace functions
on boot up, one can not filter out functions that are commonly called.This patch adds two new ftrace command line commands.
ftrace_notrace=function-list
ftrace_filter=function-listWhere function-list is a comma separated list of functions to filter.
The ftrace_notrace will make the functions listed not be included
in the function tracing, and ftrace_filter will only trace the functions
listed.These two act the same as the debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_notrace and
debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_filter respectively.The simple glob expressions that are allowed by the filter files can also
be used by the command line interface.ftrace_notrace=rcu*,*lock,*spin*
Will not trace any function that starts with rcu, ends with lock, or has
the word spin in it.Note, if the self tests are enabled, they may interfere with the filtering
set by the command lines.Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

Fix typo about chart to map the kernel priority to user land priorities.
* About sched_setscheduler(2)
Processes scheduled under SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR
can have a (user-space) static priority in the range 1 to 99.
(reference: http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/
man2/sched_setscheduler.2.html)* From: Steven Rostedt
0 to 98 - maps to RT tasks 99 to 1 (SCHED_RR or SCHED_FIFO)99 - maps to internal kernel threads that want to be lower than RT tasks
but higher than SCHED_OTHER tasks. Although I'm not sure if any
kernel thread actually uses this. I'm not even sure how this can be
set, because the internal sched_setscheduler function does not allow
for it.100 to 139 - maps nice levels -20 to 19. These are not set via
sched_setscheduler, but are set via the nice system call.140 - reserved for idle tasks.

* fix/pcm-jiffies-check:
ALSA: Enable PCM hw_ptr_jiffies check only in xrun_debug mode
ALSA: Fix invalid jiffies check after pause -
The PCM hw_ptr jiffies check results sometimes in problems when a
hardware doesn't give smooth hw_ptr updates. So far, au88x0 and some
other drivers appear not working due to this strict check.
However, this check is a nice debug tool, and the capability should be
still kept.Hence, we disable this check now as default unless the user enables it
by setting the xrun_debug mode to the specific stream via a proc file.Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai

The recent fix for the headphone volume control on IDT/STAC codecs
resulted in the removal of invalid "Side" volume eventually. But,
if the front panel doesn't exist, this setup could be regarded as a
sort of regression, as reported in kernel bug #13250.Now as a workaround, a new model 5stack-no-fp is added so that the user
without the front panel can choose this one explicitly.Reference: bko#13250

To support devices with physical block sizes bigger than 512 bytes we
need to ensure proper alignment. This patch adds support for exposing
I/O topology characteristics as devices are stacked.logical_block_size is the smallest unit the device can address.
physical_block_size indicates the smallest I/O the device can write
without incurring a read-modify-write penalty.The io_min parameter is the smallest preferred I/O size reported by
the device. In many cases this is the same as the physical block
size. However, the io_min parameter can be scaled up when stacking
(RAID5 chunk size > physical block size).The io_opt characteristic indicates the optimal I/O size reported by
the device. This is usually the stripe width for arrays.The alignment_offset parameter indicates the number of bytes the start
of the device/partition is offset from the device's natural alignment.
Partition tools and MD/DM utilities can use this to pad their offsets
so filesystems start on proper boundaries.Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen
