* Use generic BUG() handling
* Remove some useless debug statements
* Use a common function _exception() to send signals or oops when
an exception can't be handled. This makes sure init doesn't
enter an infinite exception loop as well. Borrowed from powerpc.
* Add some basic exception tracing support to the page fault code.
* Rework dump_stack(), show_regs() and friends and move everything
into process.c
* Print information about configuration options and chip type when
oopsingSigned-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen

Clean up the cpu identification code, using definitions from

bitmap to struct avr32_cpuinfo to allow other code to make decisions

This patch puts the CPU in sleep 0 when doing nothing, idle. This will
turn of the CPU clock and thus save power. The CPU is waken again when
an interrupt occurs.Signed-off-by: Hans-Christian Egtvedt

Due to limitation of the count-compare system timer (not able to
count when CPU is in sleep), the system timer had to be changed to
use a peripheral timer/counter.The old COUNT-COMPARE code is still present in time.c as weak
functions. The new timer is added to the architecture directory.This patch sets up TC0 as system timer The new timer has been tested
on AT32AP7000/ATSTK1000 at 100 Hz, 250 Hz, 300 Hz and 1000 Hz.For more details about the timer/counter see the datasheet for
AT32AP700x available athttp://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/product_card.asp?part_id=3903

[NETLINK]: Infinite recursion in netlink. -
The packet driver is assuming (reasonably) that the (undocumented)
request.errors is an errno. But it is in fact some mysterious bitfield. When
things go wrong we return weird positive numbers to the VFS as pointers and it
goes oops.Thanks to William Heimbigner for reporting and diagnosis.
(It doesn't oops, but this driver still doesn't work for William)

Reply to NETLINK_FIB_LOOKUP messages were misrouted back to kernel,
which resulted in infinite recursion and stack overflow.The bug is present in all kernel versions since the feature appeared.
The patch also makes some minimal cleanup:
1. Return something consistent (-ENOENT) when fib table is missing
2. Do not crash when queue is empty (does not happen, but yet)
3. Put result of lookupSigned-off-by: Alexey Kuznetsov

There's a really rare and obscure bug in CFQ, that causes a crash in
cfq_dispatch_insert() due to rq == NULL. One example of the resulting
oops is seen here:http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/15/41
Neil correctly diagnosed the situation for how this can happen: if two
concurrent requests with the exact same sector number (due to direct IO
or aliasing between MD and the raw device access), the alias handling
will add the request to the sortlist, but next_rq remains NULL.Read the more complete analysis at:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/25/57
This looks like it requires md to trigger, even though it should
potentially be possible to due with O_DIRECT (at least if you edit the
kernel and doctor some of the unplug calls).The fix is to move the ->next_rq update to when we add a request to the
rbtree. Then we remove the possibility for a request to exist in the
rbtree code, but not have ->next_rq correctly updated.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

Broken by 4a1728a28a193aa388900714bbb1f375e08a6d8e which switched the
return semantics of read_mii_word() but didn't fix usage of
read_mii_word() to conform to the new semantics.Setting carrier to off based on the NO_CARRIER flag is also incorrect as
that flag only triggers on TX failure and therefore isn't correct when
no frames are being transmitted. Since there is already a 2*HZ MII
carrier check going on, defer to that.Add a TRUST_LINK_STATUS feature flag for adapters where the LINK_STATUS
flag is actually correct, and use that rather than the NO_CARRIER flag.Signed-off-by: Dan Williams

The sis900 driver appears to have a bug in which the receive routine
passes the skbuff holding the received frame to the network stack before
refilling the buffer in the rx ring. If a new skbuff cannot be allocated, the
driver simply leaves a hole in the rx ring, which causes the driver to stop
receiving frames and become non-recoverable without an rmmod/insmod according to
reporters. This patch reverses that order, attempting to allocate a replacement
buffer first, and receiving the new frame only if one can be allocated. If no
skbuff can be allocated, the current skbuf in the rx ring is recycled, dropping
the current frame, but keeping the NIC operational.Signed-off-by: Neil Horman

The following patch fixes a kernel bug in depca_platform_probe().
We don't use a dynamic pointer for pldev->dev.platform_data, so it seems
that the correct way to proceed if platform_device_add(pldev) fails is
to explicitly set the pldev->dev.platform_data pointer to NULL, before
calling the platform_device_put(pldev), or it will be kfree'ed by
platform_device_release().Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

Commit 40b36daa introduced possibility that serial8250_backup_timeout() ->
serial8250_handle_port() locks port.lock without disabling irqs, thus
allowing deadlock against interrupt handler (port.lock is acquired in
serial8250_interrupt()).Spotted by lockdep.

The listxattr() and getxattr() operations are only protected by a read
lock. As a result, if either of these operations run in parallel, a race
condition exists where the xattr_root will end up being cached twice, which
results in the leaking of a reference and a BUG() on umount.This patch refactors get_xa_root(), __get_xa_root(), and create_xa_root(),
into one get_xa_root() function that takes the appropriate locking around
the entire critical section.Reported, diagnosed and tested by Andrea Righi

v9fs_insert uses v9fs_fid_lookup (which also locks the fid) to get the
primary fid associated with the dentry and destroys the v9fs_fid struct
after removing the file. If another process called v9fs_fid_lookup on the
same dentry, it may wait undefinitely for the fid's lock (as the struct is
freed).This patch changes v9fs_remove to use a cloned fid, so the primary fid is
not locked and freed.Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov
