This makes the performance impact of possible mmap_miss wrap around to be
temporary and tolerable: i.e. MMAP_LOTSAMISS=100 extra readarounds.Otherwise if ever mmap_miss wraps around to negative, it takes INT_MAX
cache misses to bring it back to normal state. During the time mmap
readaround will be _enabled_ for whatever wild random workload. That's
almost permanent performance impact.Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang

* create mm/init-mm.c, move init_mm there
* remove INIT_MM, initialize init_mm with C99 initializer
* unexport init_mm on all arches:init_mm is already unexported on x86.
One strange place is some OMAP driver (drivers/video/omap/) which
won't build modular, but it's already wants get_vm_area() export.
Somebody should look there.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: add missing #includes]

Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13484
Peer reported:
| The bug is introduced from kernel 2.6.27, if E820 table reserve the memory
| above 4G in 32bit OS(BIOS-e820: 00000000fff80000 - 0000000120000000
| (reserved)), system will report Int 6 error and hang up. The bug is caused by
| the following code in drivers/firmware/memmap.c, the resource_size_t is 32bit
| variable in 32bit OS, the BUG_ON() will be invoked to result in the Int 6
| error. I try the latest 32bit Ubuntu and Fedora distributions, all hit this
| bug.
|======
|static int firmware_map_add_entry(resource_size_t start, resource_size_t end,
| const char *type,
| struct firmware_map_entry *entry)and it only happen with CONFIG_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT is not set.
it turns out we need to pass u64 instead of resource_size_t for that.

PIT_TICK_RATE is currently defined in four architectures, but in three
different places. While linux/timex.h is not the perfect place for it, it
is still a reasonable replacement for those drivers that traditionally use
asm/timex.h to get CLOCK_TICK_RATE and expect it to be the PIT frequency.Note that for Alpha, the actual value changed from 1193182UL to 1193180UL.
This is unlikely to make a difference, and probably can only improve
accuracy. There was a discussion on the correct value of CLOCK_TICK_RATE
a few years ago, after which every existing instance was getting changed
to 1193182. According to the specification, it should be
1193181.818181...Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access
to the driver_data pointer in struct device. Instead, the functions
dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used. These functions
have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with
all older kernel versions.Cc: Mark Brown

Regulators need to be available early in init in order to allow them
to be available for consumers when requested. This is generally done
by registering them at subsys_initcall() time but not all regulator
drivers have done that. Convert these drivers to do so in order to
mimimise future support.Signed-off-by: Mark Brown

The userspace-consumer driver allows control of voltage and current
regulator state from userspace. This is required for fine-grained
power management of devices that are completely controller by userspace
applications, e.g. a GPS transciever connected to a serial port.Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport

The Maxim 1586 regulator is a voltage regulator with 2
voltage outputs, specially suitable for Marvell PXA
chips. One output is in the range of required VCC_CORE by
the PXA27x chips, the other in the VCC_USIM required as well
by PXA27x chips.The chip is controlled through the I2C bus.

While doing trie_rebalance(): resize(), inflate(), halve() RCU free
tnodes before updating their parents. It depends on RCU delaying the
real destruction, but if RCU readers start after call_rcu() and before
parent update they could access freed memory.It is currently prevented with preempt_disable() on the update side,
but it's not safe, except maybe classic RCU, plus it conflicts with
memory allocations with GFP_KERNEL flag used from these functions.This patch explicitly delays freeing of tnodes by adding them to the
list, which is flushed after the update is finished.Reported-by: Yan Zheng

On systems where CONFIG_SHMEM is disabled, mounting tmpfs filesystems can
fail when tmpfs options are used. This is because tmpfs creates a small
wrapper around ramfs which rejects unknown options, and ramfs itself only
supports a tiny subset of what tmpfs supports. This makes it pretty hard
to use the same userspace systems across different configuration systems.
As such, ramfs should ignore the tmpfs options when tmpfs is merely a
wrapper around ramfs.This used to work before commit c3b1b1cbf0 as previously, ramfs would
ignore all options. But now, we get:
ramfs: bad mount option: size=10M
mount: mounting mdev on /dev failed: Invalid argumentAnother option might be to restore the previous behavior, where ramfs
simply ignored all unknown mount options ... which is what Hugh prefers.Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger
