96b7f34143 [PATCH] cpuset: better bitmap remap defaults
Fix the default behaviour for the remap operators in bitmap, cpumask and
nodemask.

As previously submitted, the pair of masks <A, B> defined a map of the
positions of the set bits in A to the corresponding bits in B.  This is still
true.

The issue is how to map the other positions, corresponding to the unset (0)
bits in A.  As previously submitted, they were all mapped to the first set bit
position in B, a constant map.

When I tried to code per-vma mempolicy rebinding using these remap operators,
I realized this was wrong.

This patch changes the default to map all the unset bit positions in A to the
same positions in B, the identity map.

For example, if A has bits 4-7 set, and B has bits 9-12 set, then the map
defined by the pair <A, B> maps each bit position in the first 32 bits as
follows:

	0 ==> 0
	  ...
	3 ==> 3
	4 ==> 9
	  ...
	7 ==> 12
	8 ==> 8
	9 ==> 9
	  ...
	31 ==> 31

This now corresponds to the typical behaviour desired when migrating pages and
policies from one cpuset to another.

The pages on nodes within the original cpuset, and the references in memory
policies to nodes within the original cpuset, are migrated to the
corresponding cpuset-relative nodes in the destination cpuset.  Other pages
and node references are left untouched.

d5274261ea [PATCH] radix tree: early termination of tag clearing
Correctly determine the tags to be cleared in radix_tree_delete() so we
don't keep moving up the tree clearing tags that we don't need to.  For
example, if a tag is simply not set in the deleted item, nor anywhere up
the tree, radix_tree_delete() would attempt to clear it up the entire
height of the tree.

Also, tag_set() was made conditional so as not to dirty too many cachelines
high up in the radix tree.  Instead, put this logic into
radix_tree_tag_set().

Netlink is unconditionally enabled if CONFIG_NET, so that's OK.

kobject_uevent.o is compiled even if !CONFIG_HOTPLUG, which is lazy.

e22dafbcd7 [PATCH] klist: Fix broken kref counting in find functions
The klist reference counting in the find functions that use
klist_iter_init_node is broken.  If the function (for example
driver_find_device) is called with a NULL start object then everything is
fine, the first call to next_device()/klist_next increases the ref-count of
the first node on the list and does nothing for the start object which is
NULL.

If they are called with a valid start object then klist_next will decrement
the ref-count for the start object but nobody has incremented it.  Logical
place to fix this would be klist_iter_init_node because the function puts a
reference of the object into the klist_iter struct.

5f123fbd80 [PATCH] merge kobject_uevent and kobject_hotplug
The distinction between hotplug and uevent does not make sense these
days, netlink events are the default.

udev depends entirely on netlink uevents. Only during early boot and
in initramfs, /sbin/hotplug is needed. So merge the two functions and
provide only one interface without all the options.

The netlink layer got a nice generic interface with named slots
recently, which is probably a better facility to plug events for
subsystem specific events.
Also the new poll() interface to /proc/mounts is a nicer way to
notify about changes than sending events through the core.
The uevents should only be used for driver core related requests to
userspace now.

The names of these events have been confusing from the beginning
on, as they have been more like claim/release events. We needed these
events for noticing HAL if storage devices have been mounted.

Thanks to Al, we have the proper solution now and can poll()
/proc/mounts instead to get notfied about mount tree changes.

bb44f116a1 [PATCH] fix spinlock-debugging smp_processor_id() usage
When a spinlock debugging check hits, we print the CPU number as an
informational thing - but there is no guarantee that preemption is off
at that point - hence we should use raw_smp_processor_id().  Otherwise
DEBUG_PREEMPT will print a warning.

With this fix the warning goes away and only the spinlock-debugging info
is printed.

7e87023348 [PATCH] Fix swiotlb pci_map_sg error handling
The overflow checking condition in lib/swiotlb.c was wrong.
It would first run a NULL pointer through virt_to_phys before
testing it. Since pci_map_sg overflow is not that uncommon
and causes data corruption (including broken file systems) when not
properly detected I think it's better to fix it in 2.6.15.

This affects x86-64 and IA64.

Reiser4 uses radix trees to solve a trouble reiser4_readdir has serving nfs

Unfortunately, radix tree api lacks an operation suitable for modifying

4e57b68178 [PATCH] fix missing includes
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.

In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch.  This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other.  So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it.  My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.
