Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/.
Patch originally by Randy Dunlap.o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3
o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently,
the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc
o Cleaned up unneeded #includes
o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break
on archs that don't have kretprobes
o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES
o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git
o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to
determine routine execution times:
Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=' to determine
execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap

Add a defining fail/warn stubs for GPIO calls on platforms that
don't support the GPIO programming interface. That includes the arch-specific
implementation glue otherwise.This facilitates a new model for GPIO usage: drivers that can use GPIOs if
they're available, but don't require them. One example of such a driver is
NAND driver for various FreeScale chips. On platforms update with GPIO
support, they can be used instead of a worst-case delay to verify that the
BUSY signal is off.(Also includes a couple minor unrelated doc updates.)

The definitions of struct pci_device_id arrays should generally follow
the same pattern across the entire kernel. This macro defines this
array as const and puts it into the __devinitconst section.There are currently many definitions scattered about the kernel that
omit the __devinitdata modifier despite the documentation stating that
it should always be there. These definitions really also should have
been const, which wasn't possible before but has become so with the
addition of the __devinitconst attribute.Furthermore, there are definitions that use "const" and __devinitdata,
which is explicitly wrong but the compiler doesn't catch section
mismatches if there's only one such one case in the module (which is
often the case).Adding the __devinitconst modifier where there was nothing before buys
us memory. Adding the const modifier gives the compiler a chance to do
its thing. Changing __devinitdata to __devinitconst where it was wrong
actually fixes some compiler errors in older (mid-release) kernels that
were patched over by "removing" the section attribute altogether (which
wastes memory).This macro makes it pretty difficult to get this definition wrong in
the future...Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn

A "typical" implementation of atomic_add_unless() can return 0 immediately
after the first atomic_read() (before doing cmpxchg). In that case it doesn't
provide any barrier semantics. See include/asm-ia64/atomic.h as an example.We should either change the implementation, or fix the docs.

During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the
help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices'
->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4
system sleep state.But at least for some devices the operations performed by the
->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations
during regular suspend.For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and
pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase
of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as
appropriate. Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a
special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way.These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related
to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488).Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

the device attached to the third fan-out port chokes on NCQ and
shouldn't go over UDMA4" by the following.libata.force=2:1.5g,2.15:3.0g,2.03:noncq,udma4
