then all callers to use it.

Replace ax25_protocol_register by ax25_register_pid which assumes the
caller has done the memory allocation. This allows replacing the
kmalloc allocations entirely by static allocations.

The recent fix 0506d4068b made obvious that
error values were not being propagated through the AX.25 stack. To help
with that this patch marks all kmalloc users in the AX.25, NETROM and
ROSE stacks as __must_check.

[CPUFREQ] longhaul compile fix.
[CPUFREQ] Advise not to use longhaul on VIA C7.
[CPUFREQ] set policy->curfreq on initialization
[CPUFREQ] Trivial cleanup for acpi read/write port in acpi-cpufreq.c
[CPUFREQ] fixes typo in cpufreq.c
Recent workqueue changes basically make this a formal requirement.
Also, move atomic32.o from lib-y to obj-y since it exports symbols
to modules.

It branches around some necessary prom calls, which we would
need to do even if we are mapped at the correct location already.
So it doesn't work.
The idea was that this sort of thing could be used for the eventual
kexec implementation, but it is clear that this will need to be
done differently.

Hugh Dickins correctly points out that mincore() is actually _supposed_
to fail on an unmapped hole in the user address space, rather than
return valid ("empty") information about the hole. This just simplifies
the problem further (I had been misled by our previous confusing and
complicated way of doing mincore()).
Also, in the unlikely situation that we can't allocate a temporary
kernel buffer, we should actually return EAGAIN, not ENOMEM, to keep the
"unmapped hole" and "allocation failure" error cases separate.
Finally, add a comment about our stupid historical lack of support for
anonymous mappings. I'll fix that if somebody reminds me after 2.6.20
is out.

On architectures where the atomicity of the bit operations is handled by
external means (ie a separate spinlock to protect concurrent accesses),
just doing a direct assignment on the workqueue data field (as done by
commit 4594bf159f) can cause the
assignment to be lost due to lack of serialization with the bitops on
the same word.
So we need to serialize the assignment with the locks on those
architectures (notably older ARM chips, PA-RISC and sparc32).
So rather than using an "unsigned long", let's use "atomic_long_t",
which already has a safe assignment operation (atomic_long_set()) on
such architectures.
This requires that the atomic operations use the same atomicity locks as
the bit operations do, but that is largely the case anyway. Sparc32
will probably need fixing.
Architectures (including modern ARM with LL/SC) that implement sane
atomic operations for SMP won't see any of this matter.

Doug Chapman noticed that mincore() will doa "copy_to_user()" of the
result while holding the mmap semaphore for reading, which is a big
no-no. While a recursive read-lock on a semaphore in the case of a page
fault happens to work, we don't actually allow them due to deadlock
schenarios with writers due to fairness issues.
Doug and Marcel sent in a patch to fix it, but I decided to just rewrite
the mess instead - not just fixing the locking problem, but making the
code smaller and (imho) much easier to understand.

The UDMA66 VIA hardware has no controller side cable detect bits we can
use. This patch minimally fixes the problem by reporting unknown in this
case and using drive side detection.
The old drivers/ide code does some additional tricks but those aren't
appropriate now we are in -rc.
Without this update UDMA66 via controllers run slowly. They don't fail so
it's a borderline call whether this is -rc material or not.
