/sys/module/MODULENAME is not created unconditionally. This can be
confusing so document the current conditions.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Cc: Rob Landley
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell -
Several InfiniBand HCAs allow configuring the completion vector per
CQ. This allows spreading the workload created by IB completion
interrupts over multiple MSI-X vectors and hence over multiple CPU
cores. In other words, configuring the completion vector properly not
only allows reducing latency on an initiator connected to multiple
SRP targets but also allows improving throughput.Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche

AV targets, VersaPHY initiator or targets...), to pick up their

Pull driver core changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here's the big driver core pull request for 3.6-rc1.Unlike 3.5, this kernel should be a lot tamer, with the printk changes

are good to have now, and some other minor fixes/changes in the driver

This patch simply adds a newline character at end-of-file to those
files in Documentation/ that currently lack one.This is done for a few different reasons:
A) It's rather annoying when you do "cat some_file.txt" that your
prompt/cursor ends up at the end of the last line of output rather
than on a new line.B) Some tools that process files line-by-line may get confused by the
lack of a newline on the last line.C) The "\ No newline at end of file" line in diffs annoys me for some
reason.So, let's just add the missing newline once and for all.

There are a lot userspace approaches to detect the usage of the
platform (laptop, workstation, server, ...) and adjust kernel tunables
accordingly (io/process scheduler, power management, ...).These approaches need constant maintaining and are ugly to implement
(detect PCMCIA controller -> laptop,
does not work on recent systems anymore, ...)
On ACPI systems there is an easy and reliable way (if implemented
in BIOS and most recent platforms have this value set).
-> export it to userspace.Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger

Add overview documentation in Documentation/ABI/stable/firewire-cdev.
Improve the inline reference documentation in firewire-cdev.h:
- Add /* available since kernel... */ comments to event numbers
consistent with the comments on ioctl numbers.- Shorten some documentation on an event and an ioctl that are
less interesting to current programming because there are newer
preferable variants.- Spell Configuration ROM (name of an IEEE 1212 register) in
upper case.- Move the dummy FW_CDEV_VERSION out of the reader's field of
vision. We should remove it from the header next year or so.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter
