Jiri Slaby e415109f5a Char: stallion, alloc tty before pci devices init
this causes oops, because pci probe function calls tty_register_device for
each device found. Thanks to Ingo.

Jiri Slaby 64834b226b Char: stallion, don't fail with less than max panels
Since it's not neccesary to have MAX_PANELS on the card, don't fail to let
users use this card even in this case.  Stop the testing for loop instead.

Thanks to Ingo.

Christoph Lameter 272c1d21d6 SLUB: return ZERO_SIZE_PTR for kmalloc(0)
Instead of returning the smallest available object return ZERO_SIZE_PTR.

A ZERO_SIZE_PTR can be legitimately used as an object pointer as long as it
is not deferenced.  The dereference of ZERO_SIZE_PTR causes a distinctive
fault.  kfree can handle a ZERO_SIZE_PTR in the same way as NULL.

This enables functions to use zero sized object. e.g. n = number of objects.

	objects = kmalloc(n * sizeof(object));

	for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
		objects[i].x = y;

	kfree(objects);

Bryan Wu 85f6038f21 RAMFS NOMMU: missed POSIX UID/GID inode attribute checking
This bug was caught by LTP testcase fchmod06 on Blackfin platform.

In the manpage of fchmod, "EPERM: The effective UID does not match the
owner of the file, and the process is not privileged (Linux: it does not
have the CAP_FOWNER capability)."

But the ramfs nommu code missed the inode_change_ok POSIX UID/GID
verification. This patch fixed this.

Steven Rostedt e5e3c84b70 enable interrupts in user path of page fault.
This is a minor fix, but what is currently there is essentially wrong.
In do_page_fault, if the faulting address from user code happens to be
in kernel address space (int *p = (int*)-1; p = 0xbed;)  then the
do_page_fault handler will jump over the local_irq_enable with the

  goto bad_area_nosemaphore;

But the first line there sees this is user code and goes through the
process of sending a signal to send SIGSEGV to the user task. This whole
time interrupts are disabled and the task can not be preempted by a
higher priority task.

This patch always enables interrupts in the user path of the
bad_area_nosemaphore.

David S. Miller ec4d18f219 [SPARC64]: Fix SBUS IRQ regression caused by PCI-E driver.
We used to access the 64-bit IRQ IMAP and ICLR registers of bus
controllers 4-bytes in and as a 32-bit register word, since only the
low 32-bits were relevant.  This seemed like a good idea at the time.

But the PCI-E controller requires full 8-byte 64-bit access to
these registers, so we switched over to accessing them fully.

SBUS was not adjusted properly, which broke interrupts completely.
