Recently my console UTF-8 patch went mainline. Here is an additional patch
that fixes two nasty issues and improves a third one, namely:
1. My patch changed the behavior if a glyph is not found in the Unicode
mapping table. Previously for Unicode values less than 256 or 512 the
kernel tried to display the glyph from that position of the glyph table,
which could lead to a different accented letter being displayed. I
removed this fallback possibility and changed it to display the
replacement symbol.
As Behdad pointed out, some fonts (e.g. sun12x22 from the kbd package)
lack Unicode mapping information, hence all you get is lots of question
marks. Though theoretically it's actually a user-space bug (the font
should be fixed), Behdad and I both believe that it'd be good to work
around in the kernel by re-introducing the fallback solution for ASCII
characters only. This sounds a quite reasonable decision, since all fonts
ship the ASCII characters in the first 128 positions. This way users
won't be surprised by lots of question marks just because s/he issued a
not-so-perfectly parameterized setfont command. As this fallback is only
re-introduced for code points below 128, you still won't see an accented
letter replaced by another, but at least you'll always get the English
letters right.
2. My patch introduced "question mark with inverted color attributes" as a
last resort fallback glyph. Though it perfectly works on VGA console, on
framebuffer you may end up with question marks that are highlighed but
shouldn't be, and normal characters that are accidentally highlighed.
This is caused by missing FLUSHes when changing the color attribute.
3. I've updated the table of double-width character based on Markus's
updated version. Only ten new code poings (one interval) is added.

Having walked through the entire skbuff, skb_seq_read would leave the
last fragment mapped. As a consequence, the unwary caller would leak
kmaps, and proceed with preempt_count off by one. The only (kind of
non-intuitive) workaround is to use skb_seq_read_abort.
This patch makes sure skb_seq_read always unmaps frag_data after
having cycled through the skb's paged part.

This moves the local_irq_enable() call in net_rx_action() to before
calling the CONFIG_NET_DMA's dma_async_memcpy_issue_pending() rather
than after. This shortens the irq disabled window and allows for DMA
drivers that need to do their own irq hold.

tcp_read_sock() currently assumes that the recv_actor() only returns
number of bytes copied. For network splice receive, we may have to
return an error in some cases. So allow the actor to return a negative
error value.

The tipc netlink config handler uses the nlmsg_pid from the
request header as destination for its reply. If the application
initialized nlmsg_pid to 0, the reply is looped back to the kernel,
causing hangup. Fix: use nlmsg_pid of the skb that triggered the
request.

Always disable/enable interrupts in the acpi idle routine,
even in the error path.
This is required as the 2.6.20 change in git commit d331e739f5ad2aaa9...
"Fix interrupt race in idle callback" expects the idle handler
to enable interrupt before returning.
There was a case in acpi idle routine, in which interrupt was not being
enabled before return, which caused the system to hang at bootup, while
enabling C-states on an SMP system.
The signature of the hang was that "processor.nocst"
was required to enable boot.

The current at32ap7000 platform devices aren't declared as supporting DMA,
so that layered drivers can't tell whether they need to manage DMA.
This patch makes all those platform devices report that they support DMA.
Most do, but in a few cases this is inappropriate.

If (start + size) is not cacheline aligned and (start & mask) > (end &
mask), the last but one cacheline won't be invalidated as it should.
Fix this by rounding `end' down to the nearest cacheline boundary if
it gets adjusted due to misalignment.
Also flush the write buffer unconditionally -- if the dcache wrote
back a line just before we invalidated it, the dirty data may be
sitting in the write buffer waiting to corrupt our buffer later.

Previously a program could switch to a compat mode segment and then
execute SYSCALL and it would jump to an uninitialized MSR and crash
the kernel.
Instead supply a dummy target for this case.

It is only used for PAE kernels in set_64bit.
The problem is that due to a old Windows bug many CPUs need magic MSRs
to enable CMPXCHG64, and we can't do that nicely early enough before
it is potentially used.
But since we only need it in PAE kernels so only force the checking
for CMPXCHG65 with PAE.
This fixes a boot failure on Transmeta Crusoe

There is no realistic situation to change helper (Who wants IRC helper to
track FTP traffic ?). Moreover, if we want to do that, we need to fix race
issue by nfctnetlink and running helper. That will add overhead to packet
processing. It wouldn't pay. So this rejects the request to change
helper. The requests to add or remove helper are accepted as ever.
