"The tree got pretty big in this development cycle, but the net effect
is pretty good:
115 files changed, 673 insertions(+), 1522 deletions(-)
The main changes were:
- Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex
primitives. (Peter Zijlstra)
- Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
Christian Borntraeger)
- Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)
- Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)
- Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)
- Improve the rtmutex code a bit, in light of recent long lived
bugs/races. (Thomas Gleixner)
- Misc fixes, cleanups"

Pull m68knommu updates from Greg Ungerer:
"There are two sets of changes in this pull.
The largest is the addition of the ColdFire platform side i2c support
(the IO addressing, setup and clock definitions). The i2c hardware
module itself is driven by the kernels existing iMX i2c driver.
The other change is the addition of support for the Amcore board"

m68knommu: AMCORE board, add iMX i2c support
m68k: add Sysam AMCORE open board support
m68knommu: platform support for i2c devices on ColdFire SoC
A string which did not contain a data format specification should be put
into a sequence. Thus use the corresponding function "seq_puts".
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

These changes based on work by Steven King <sfking@fdwdc.com> to support
the i2c hardware modules on ColdFire SoC family devices.
This is the per SoC hardware support. Contains a common platform device
setup. Each of the SoC family members tends to have some minor local
setup required to initialize the module. But all ColdFire family members
use the same i2c hardware module.
This i2c hardware module is the same as used in the Freescale iMX ARM
based family of SoC devices. Steven's original patches were based on using
a new and different i2c-coldfire.c driver. But this is not neccessary as
we can use the existing Linux i2c-imx.c driver with no change required to
it. And this patch is now based on using the existing i2c-imx driver.
This patch only contains the ColdFire platform changes.

Mostly simple overlapping changes.
For example, David Ahern's adjacency list revamp in 'net-next'
conflicted with an adjacency list traversal bug fix in 'net'.

The current ndelay() macro definition has an extra semi-colon at the
end of the line thus leading to a compilation error when ndelay is used
in a conditional block without curly braces like this one:
if (cond)
ndelay(t);
else
...
which, after the preprocessor pass gives:
if (cond)
m68k_ndelay(t);;
else
...
thus leading to the following gcc error:
error: 'else' without a previous 'if'
Remove this extra semi-colon.

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:
- EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.
This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
working on a patch to fix this.
Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
change prototypes.
- Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
Piggin
- fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.
- preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
-ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections
- CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell
- fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.

With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.
Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.
