  • Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
    "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
    locking violations, etc.

    The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
    "has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
    to inode. Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

    Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
    several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

    PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

  • The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a
    while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the
    Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

  • CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev*
    markings need to be removed.

    This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
    __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

    Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
    in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

  • This patch fixes a regresion introduced by commit 0998d063 (device-core: Ensure
    drvdata = NULL when no driver is bound).

    Suspend oopses in generic_ide_suspend() because dev_get_drvdata()
    returns NULL (dev->p->driver_data == NULL) and this function is not
    prepared for this.

    Fix is based on Alan Stern's suggestion.

  • IO_DATA_PATH_WIDTH_8 is 0, so a bit-and with it is always false. The
    value IO_DATA_PATH_WIDTH covers the bits of the IO_DATA_PATH constants, so
    first pick those bits and then make the test using !=.

    This problem was found using Coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).

    The function will then be enhanced to detect partition block devices

  • Now that no driver any longer depends on the CONFIG_SOC_AU1??? symbols,
    it's time to get rid of them: Move some of the platform devices to the
    boards which can use them, Rename a few (unused) constants in the header,
    Replace them with MIPS_ALCHEMY in the various Kconfig files. Finally
    delete them altogether from the Alchemy Kconfig file.

  • Simon Kirby reported that on his RAID setup with idedisk underneath
    the box OOMs after a couple of days of runtime. Running with
    CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK pointed to idedisk_prep_fn() which unconditionally
    allocates an ide_cmd struct. However, ide_requeue_and_plug() can be
    called more than once per request, either from the request issue or the
    IRQ handler path and do blk_peek_request() ends up in idedisk_prep_fn()
    repeatedly, allocating a struct ide_cmd everytime and "forgetting" the
    previous pointer.

    Make sure the code reuses the old allocated chunk.
