This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.
This patch:
Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts.
Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

After seeing the filename I'd have expected something about the
implementation of SMP in the Linux kernel - not some notes on kernel
configuration and building trivialities noone would search at this
place.

Linus:
On the per-architecture side, I do think it would be better to *not* have
internal architecture knowledge in a generic file, and as such a line like
depends on X86_32 || IA64 || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || X86_64 || AVR32
really shouldn't exist in a file like kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation.
It would be much better to do
depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
in that generic file, and then architectures that do support it would just
have a
bool ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
default y
in *their* architecture files. That would seem to be much more logical,
and is readable both for arch maintainers *and* for people who have no
clue - and don't care - about which architecture is supposed to support
which interface...
Changelog:
Actually, I know I gave this as the magic incantation, but now that I see
it, I realize that I should have told you to just use
config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
def_bool y
instead, which is a bit denser.
We seem to use both kinds of syntax for these things, but this is really
what "def_bool" is there for...
Changelog :
- Moving to HAVE_*.
- Add AVR32 oprofile.

This patch adds the header file asm/spi.h and board specific code for the
r2d board. The header file contains a structure that should be used to
point out a single spi bus. The board specific code for r2d is updated with
such a structure for the new spi_sh_sci driver. The structure contains a
chip select callback plus information about the R9701 rtc chip which is
attached to the spi bus.

This patch updates the board specific irq code for r7780rp. The new code is
very similar to the other highlander implementations, with the exception that
the r7780rp handles pci interrupts using IRL. To simplify the pci code and
use the same interrupt numbers as r7780mp and r7785rp we hook in to the
cpu specific pci vectors.
The pci interrupts and the push switch all work well with and without this
patch. CF and AX88796 are not ok though and the source of the problem is
unknown at this point. The AX88796 does for not detect it's proper mac
address (IPL gets it right) and the kernel hangs on CF access. As a workaround
this patch removes the CF and the AX88796 from the platform datain case of
r7780rp.

Apart from cleaning up, this gives the dreamcast a proper memory allocator

This patch adds declared coherent memory support to the sh architecture. All
functions are based on the x86 implementation. Header files are adjusted to
use the new functions instead of the former consistent_alloc() code.
This version includes the few changes what were included in the fix patch
together with modifications based on feedback from Paul.

Some of Sam's new work in the kbuild queue depend on ## concatenation
within the linker script, which doesn't work when -traditional is
enabled. -traditional is a legacy remnant anyways, and we no longer
require it for anything, so kill it off completely.
