We are seeing increasing levels of minor patch style violations in submissions
to the mailing lists as well as making it into the tree. These detract from
the quality of the submission and cause unnessary work for reviewers.As a first step package up the current state of the patch style checker and
include it in the kernel tree. Add instructions suggesting running it on
submissions. This adds version v0.01 of the checkpatch.pl script.Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft

Move the forward declaration of fb_class from drivers/video/console/fbcon.h to
, together with the other forward declarations related to
drivers/video/fbmem.c.This kills the following sparse warning:

Because the framebuffer memory is allocated system RAM, use the sys_ drawing
libraries. It also fixes the following compile error:LD .tmp_vmlinux1

Force Dell E520 to use the BIOS to shutdown/reboot.
I have at least one report that this patch fixes shutdown/reboot
problems on the Dell E520 platform.(Andi says: People can always set the boot option. It hardly seems like a
critical issue needing a backport.)Signed-off-by: Tim Gardner

Chuck reports that the recent fix from Andi to oprofile
6c977aad03a18019015035958c65b6729cd0574c introduces a double free. Each
cpu's cpu_msrs is setup to point to cpu 0's, which causes free_msrs to free
cpu 0's pointers for_each_possible_cpu. Rather than copy the pointers, do
a deep copy instead.[acme@redhat.com: allocate_msrs() was using for_each_online_cpu()]

I have made a tool to parse the kernel that does not pre-process the
source. That means that my parser tries to parse all the code, including
code in the #else branch or code that is not often compiled because the
driver is not very used (or not used at all). So, my parser sometimes
reports parse error not originally detected by gcc. Here is my (first)
patch.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix amd8111e.c]

The Via VT3351 APIC does not play well with MSI and unleashes a flood
of APIC errors when MSI is used to deliver interrupts. The problem
was recently exposed when the atl1 network device driver, which enables
MSI by default, stimulated APIC errors on an Asus M2V mainboard, which
employs the Via VT3351.
See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8472 for additional

Wolfgang gets:
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 0 of device 0000:00:04.0
PCI: Error while updating region 0000:00:04.0/0 (a8008000 != fec08000)Note that the BAR seems to have high address bits hardwired to fec00000.
And device 0000:00:04.0 is00:04.0 System peripheral: Siemens Nixdorf AG FSC Multiprocessor Interrupt Controller (rev 02)
I'd guess that when we try to reassign this resource, PCI interrupts might
just stop working. This could explain SCSI timeouts and other weird things.Cc: Wolfgang Erig
