and provide some important pointers to its uses.

dm-mpath.c needs to use a private workqueue (like other dm targets already do)
to avoid interfering with users of the default workqueue.

This had a fatal lock ranking bug: we do journal_start outside
mpage_writepages()'s lock_page().
Revert the whole thing, think again.

Attached is a patch to bttv which fixes the following problems.
Affected cards and problems:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
o VP-1020 (200103A) Tuning problems, device detection.
o VP-1020 (DST-MOT) Errors during tuning, device detection fails in a while.
o VP-1030 (DST-CI) Tuning sometimes fails after CI commands.
o VP-2031 (DCT-CI) Tuning problems
The timeout happens before the actual timeout occured in the MCU
on the board, and hence the problems.
Changes: (bttv-i2c.diff)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
o Changed the custom wait queue to wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
- Suggestion by Johannes Stezenbach.
o Fixed the wait queue timeout problem
- This fixes the timeout problem on various cards.
- This problem was visible as many
* Cannot tune to channels, when signal levels are very low.
* app_info does not work in some conditions for CI based cards
- Smaller values worked good for newer cards, but the older cards
suffered, settled down to the worst case values that could happen in any
eventuality.

This patch adds support for a new class of DAC960 controllers. It's based
on the GPLed idac320 driver from IBM for Linux 2.4.18. That driver is a
fork of the 2.4.18 version of DAC960 that adds support for this new type of
controllers (internally called "GEM Series"), that differ from other DAC960
V2 firmware controllers only in the register offsets and removes support
for all others.
This patch instead integrates support for these controllers into the DAC960
driver.
Thanks to Anders Norrbring for pointing me to the idac320 driver and
testing this patch.
No Signed-Off: line because all code is either copy & pasted from IBM's
idac320 driver or support for other controllers in the 2.6 DAC960 driver.
Note: the really odd formating matches the rest of the DAC960 driver.

Make sure that if the INTRTIE bit is set both functions of the cardbus
bridge use the same IRQ before doing any probing...
[ yes i hate the TI bridges for the fact that they are very flexible
so that so many BIOS vendors get it wrong. ]

This patch handles the VIDIOC_S_FMT and VIDIOC_G_FMT ioctls for the
saa6752hs.
As only 4 preset video formats are supported (SIF, 1/2D1, 2/3D1, D1), we
compute to which the asked resolution is the nearest and apply it.
