Fix kernel oopses whenever somebody issues compatible ioctl on AppleTalk,
Econet, IPX or IRDA socket. For AppleTalk/Econet/IRDA it restores state
in which these sockets were before compat_ioctl was introduced to the socket
ops, for IPX it implements support for 4 ioctls which were not implemented
before - as these ioctls use structures which match between 32bit and 64bit
userspace, no special code is needed, just call 64bit ioctl handler.Signed-off-by: Petr Vandrovec

Speed up SRAM read and write functions if possible by using MMIO
instead of config. cycles. With this change, the post reset signature
done at the end of D3 power change must now be moved before the D3
power change.IBM reported a problem on powerpc blades during ethtool self test
that was caused by the memory test taking excessively long. Config.
cycles are very slow on powerpc and the memory test can take more
than 10 seconds to complete using config. cycles. As a result, NETDEV
WATCHDOG can be triggered during self test and the chip can end up in
a funny state.Signed-off-by: Michael Chan

Some older bootcode in some devices may report 0 MAC address in
SRAM when booting up from low power state. This patch fixes the
problem by checking for a valid MAC address in SRAM and falling back
to NVRAM if necessary.Thanks to walt for reporting the problem
and helping to debug it.Signed-off-by: Michael Chan

Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
This patch adds support for the Intel ixp23xx series of CPUs. The
ixp23xx is an XSC3 based CPU with 512K of L2 cache, a 64bit 66MHz PCI
interface, two DDR RAM interfaces, QDR RAM interfaces, two gigabit
MACs, two 10/100 MACs, expansion bus, four microengines, a Media and
Switch Fabric unit almost identical to the one on the ixp2400, two
xscale (8250ish) UARTs and a bunch of other stuff.This patch adds the core ixp23xx support code, and support for the
ADI Engineering Roadrunner, Intel IXDP2351, and IP Fabrics Double
Espresso platforms.Signed-off-by: Deepak Saxena

Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
This patch adds support for the new XScale v3 core. This is an
ARMv5 ISA core with the following additions:- L2 cache
- I/O coherency support (on select chipsets)
- Low-Locality Reference cache attributes (replaces mini-cache)
- Supersections (v6 compatible)
- 36-bit addressing (v6 compatible)
- Single instruction cache line clean/invalidate
- LRU cache replacement (vs round-robin)I attempted to merge the XSC3 support into proc-xscale.S, but XSC3
cores have separate errata and have to handle things like L2, so it
is simpler to keep it separate.L2 cache support is currently a build option because the L2 enable
bit must be set before we enable the MMU and there is no easy way to
capture command line parameters at this point.There are still optimizations that can be done such as using LLR for
copypage (in theory using the exisiting mini-cache code) but those
can be addressed down the road.Signed-off-by: Deepak Saxena

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixupsThe goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven
