* Don't program UDMA timings when programming PIO or MWDMA modes.
This has also a nice side-effect of fixing regression added by commit
681c80b5d96076f447e8101ac4325c82d8dce508 ("libata: correct handling of
SRST reset sequences") (->set_piomode method for PIO0 is called before
->cable_detect method which checks UDMA timings to get the cable type).* Bump driver version.

The Highpoint RocketRAID boards using Marvell 7042 chips
overwrite the 9th sector of attached drives at boot time,
when those drives are configured as "Legacy" (the default)
in the HighPoint BIOS.This kills GRUB, and probably other stuff.
But it all happens *before* Linux is even loaded.So, for now we'll log a WARNING when such boards are detected,
and advise users to configure BIOS "JBOD" volumes instead,
which don't appear to suffer from this problem.Signed-off-by: Mark Lord

We need to run any DMA command with result taskfile requested in ADMA mode
when the port is in ADMA mode, otherwise it may try to use the legacy DMA engine
in ADMA mode which is not allowed. Enforce this with BUG_ON() since data
corruption could potentially result if this happened. Also, fail any attempt to
try and issue NCQ commands with result taskfile requested, since the hardware
doesn't allow this.Signed-off-by: Robert Hancock

Our automated test suite looks for keywords like error, fail, warning in
the boot log. In the case when the nmi watchdog is determined to be
stuck in check_nmi_watchdog(), none of those keywords are displayed.This patch adds a keyword, "WARNING:", so it makes it easier to notice
when the nmi watchdog isn't working correctly. Also add a proper
KERN_WARNING mark to this printout.Signed-off-by: Don Zickus

The recent Kconfig changes in x86 resulted in CONFIG_X86_HT no longer
being set if (X86_32 && MK8).After grep'ing through the tree I think the problem is that different
places have different assumptions about the semantics of CONFIG_X86_HT,
either:- hyperthreading or
- multicoreThis should be sorted out properly, but until then we should keep the
2.6.23 status quo.Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk

Luiz Fernando N. Capitulino reported that sched_rr_get_interval()
crashes for SCHED_OTHER tasks that are on an idle runqueue.The fix is to return a 0 timeslice for tasks that are on an idle
runqueue. (and which are not running, obviously)this also shrinks the code a bit:

We may receive a unit check for every path when we issue a SenseID.
Unfortunately, the channel subsystem will try on a different path
every time if we use a lpm of 0xff, which will exhaust our retry
counter.Therefore, revert SenseID to its previous per-path behaviour and
just leave out the suspend multipath reconnect.Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck

If HPET was enabled by pci quirks, we use i8253 as initial clockevent
because pci quirks doesn't run until pci is initialized.The above means the kernel (or something) is assuming HPET legacy
replacement is disabled and can use i8253 at boot.If we used kexec, it isn't true. So, this patch disables HPET legacy
replacement for kexec in machine_shutdown().Signed-off-by: OGAWA Hirofumi

Under the conditions that UML uses it, tcgetattr is guaranteed to return
-EINTR when the console is attached to /dev/ptmx, making generic_console_write
hang because it loops, calling tcgetattr until it succeeds. This is a host
bug - see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119618990807182&w=2 for the
details.This patch works around it by blocking SIGIO while the terminal attributes are
