Here is a proposed patch for bug in readdir. Listing of dirs with
many files fails without this patch.

Revert "md: do not progress the resync process if the stripe was blocked"
Don't pass NULL pointers to fput() in the error handling paths of the NOMMU
do_mmap_pgoff() as it can't handle it.
The following can be used as a test program:
int main() { static long long a[1024 * 1024 * 20] = { 0 }; return a;}
Without the patch, the code oopses in atomic_long_dec_and_test() as called by
fput() after the kernel complains that it can't allocate that big a chunk of
memory. With the patch, the kernel just complains about the allocation size
and then the program segfaults during execve() as execve() can't complete the
allocation of all the new ELF program segments.

Add brief descriptions for the following sysfs files:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_id
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_siblings
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_siblings_list
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/physical_package_id
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/thread_siblings
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/thread_siblings_list
The descriptions in Documentation/cputopology.txt weren't very
informative, so I attempted a better description based on code
reading and hopeful guessing.
Updated Documentation/cputopology.txt with the better descriptions and
fixed some style issues.

Platform drivers registered via platform_driver_probe() can be bound
to devices only once, upon registration, because discard their probe()
routines to save memory. Unbinding the driver through sysfs 'unbind'
leaves the device stranded and confuses users so let's not create
bind and unbind attributes for such drivers.

fsl_udc_release() calls dma_free_coherent() with an inappropriate
device passed to it, and since the device has no dma_ops, the following
oops pops up:

This patch presents fixes for the autosuspend feature implementation in
sierra usb serial driver in functions sierra_open(), sierra_close() and
stop_read_write_urbs().
The patch "sierra_close() must resume the device before it notifies it
of a closure" submitted by Oliver Neukum on Wed, October 14 has been
merged as fix in sierra_close() function.
The bug fix in sierra_open() function restores the autopm interface
state on error condition.
The bug fix in in stop_read_write_urbs() function assures that both
receive and interrupt urbs are recycled.

This patch presents a fix for the autosuspend feature implementation in
sierra usb serial driver for function sierra_send_setup(). Because it
is possible to call sierra_send_setup() before sierra_open() or after
sierra_close() we added a get/put interface activity to assure that the
usb control can happen even when the device is autosuspended.

The MTU throttle-down if a RNDIS device doesn't support a particular
packet size is being incorrectly logged. The attempted packet size is
being clobbered before it gets logged.
First patch; please inform if I'm doing this incorrectly. Diff'd
against latest official source as per the FAQ; forward port to current
git version is straightforward.
