Impact: cleanup, reduce kernel size a bit
The current kernel build warns:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x11458): Section mismatch in reference from the function swiotlb_alloc_boot() to the function .init.text:__alloc_bootmem_low()
The function swiotlb_alloc_boot() references
the function __init __alloc_bootmem_low().
This is often because swiotlb_alloc_boot lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of __alloc_bootmem_low is wrong.WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1011f2): Section mismatch in reference from the function swiotlb_late_init_with_default_size() to the function .init.text:__alloc_bootmem_low()
The function swiotlb_late_init_with_default_size() references
the function __init __alloc_bootmem_low().
This is often because swiotlb_late_init_with_default_size lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of __alloc_bootmem_low is wrong.and indeed the functions calling __alloc_bootmem_low() can be marked
__init as well.Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier

* i8k-updates:
i8k: Add Dell Vostro systems
i8k: Enable i8k on Dell Precision Systems -
This trivial patch adds support for i8k on the new Dell Vostro models.
I tested it on my Vostro 1400, and it works. It does print a warning
when loading the module:i8k: unable to get SMM BIOS version
But I couldn't figure out how to fix that. The module seems to work fine,

Add flag value UPF_FIXED_TYPE which specifies that the UART type is
known and should not be probed. For this case the UARTs properties
are just copied out of the uart_config entry.This allows us to keep SOC specific 8250 probe code out of 8250.c. In
this case we know the serial hardware will not be changing as it is on
the same silicon as the CPU, and we can specify it with certainty in
the board/cpu setup code.The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific
special cases in the probing code.Signed-off-by: David Daney

In order to use Cavium OCTEON specific serial i/o drivers, we first
patch the 8250 driver to use replaceable I/O functions. Compatible
I/O functions are added for existing iotypeS.An added benefit of this change is that it makes it easy to factor
some of the existing special cases out to board/SOC specific support
code.The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific
iotype code and bug work-arounds.Signed-off-by: David Daney

In serial8250_isa_init_ports(), the port's lock is initialized. We
should not overwrite it. In early_serial_setup(), only copy in the
fields we need. Since the early console code only uses a subset of

Move the tty_port and uart_info bits around a little. By embedding the uart_info
into the uart_port we get rid of lots of corner case testing and also get the
ability to go portstateinfo which is a bit more elegant than the current
data structures.Downsides - we allocate a tiny bit more memory for unused ports, upside we've
removed as much code as it saved for most users..Signed-off-by: Alan Cox

In the commit below a new struct serial_rs485 was introduced for a new
ioctl:commit c26c56c0f40e200e61d1390629c806f6adaffbcc
Author: Alan Cox
Date: Mon Oct 13 10:37:48 2008 +0100tty: Cris has a nice RS485 ioctl so we should steal it
This structure uses the __u32 types for some of its members, which leads
to the following compile error:$ cc -I.../include -c X.c
In file included from X.c:2: .../include/linux/serial.h:185:
error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘__u32’

to be exposed to userspace. These types are available via linux/types.h

Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds -
The N_TTY ldisc layer does not send SIGIO POLL_OUTs correctly when output is
possible due to flawed handling of the TTY_DO_WRITE_WAKEUP bit. It will
either send no SIGIOs at all or on every tty wakeup.The fix is to set the bit when the tty driver write would block and test
and clear it on write wakeup.[Merged with existing N_TTY patches and a small buglet fixed -- Alan]
