The total width of the command name plus spaces should be
8 characters, but were 7 and 9, respectively. With 8 chars,
all commands are now lining up nicely.The mandocs, psdocs, xmldocs commands are OK.

The LM99 differs from the LM86, LM89 and LM90 in that it reports
remote temperatures (temp2) 16 degrees lower than they really are. So
far we have been cheating and handled this in userspace but it really
should be handled by the driver directly.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which
is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0
state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0
state. In such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and
checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device
can't be transited to the correct power state.So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking
the device power in the course of device power transition.http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8049

The document describing how to port i2c chip drivers from Linux 2.4 to

This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can
use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234)
is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence
and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between
kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels.The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in
head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it
is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel
will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the
address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter.CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump
kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and
kdump kernel.This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid
GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

We don't want to encourage the bogus device_type usage.
The device type isn't used in the code, so we can simply remove it from
