Rolling forward PCMCIA driver, it was discovered that the indentation in
existing one, as well as in BSP side are very odd. This patch is just result
of Lindent run ontop of culprit files.Signed-off-by: Vitaly Bordug

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes]

kmalloc_node() and kmem_cache_alloc_node() were not available in a zeroing
variant in the past. But with __GFP_ZERO it is possible now to do zeroing
while allocating.Use __GFP_ZERO to remove the explicit clearing of memory via memset whereever
we can.Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter

For large incoming packets > PAGE_SIZE/2 qeth creates a fragmented skb

This avoids allocating big chunks of consecutive memory. Also copying

This patch adds support for DLPAR memory add to the eHEA driver. To detect
whether memory was added the driver uses its own memory mapping table and
checks for kernel addresses whether they're located in already known memory
sections. If not the function ehea_rereg_mrs() is triggered which performs
a rebuild of the mapping table and a re-registration of the global memory
region.Signed-off-by: Thomas Klein
