80cb9aee01 [PATCH] USB: EHCI for Freescale 83xx
Adding a Host Mode USB driver for the Freescale 83xx.

This driver supports both the Dual-Role (DR) controller and the
Multi-Port-Host (MPH) controller present in the Freescale MPC8349. It has
been tested with the MPC8349CDS reference system. This driver depends on
platform support code for setting up the pins on the device package in a
manner appropriate for the board in use. Note that this patch requires
selecting the EHCI controller option under the USB Host menu.

4a29cc2e50 [TG3]: 40-bit DMA workaround part 2
The 40-bit DMA workaround recently implemented for 5714, 5715, and
5780 needs to be expanded because there may be other tg3 devices
behind the EPB Express to PCIX bridge in the 5780 class device.

For example, some 4-port card or mother board designs have 5704 behind
the 5714.

All devices behind the EPB require the 40-bit DMA workaround.

Thanks to Chris Elmquist again for reporting the problem and testing
the patch.

7cd9013be6 [PATCH] remove __put_task_struct_cb export again
The patch '[PATCH] RCU signal handling' [1] added an export for
__put_task_struct_cb, a put_task_struct helper newly introduced in that
patch.  But the put_task_struct couldn't be used modular previously as
__put_task_struct wasn't exported.  There are not callers of it in modular
code, and it shouldn't be exported because we don't want drivers to hold
references to task_structs.

This patch removes the export and folds __put_task_struct into
__put_task_struct_cb as there's no other caller.

0adb25d2e7 [PATCH] ext3: ext3_symlink should use GFP_NOFS allocations inside
This patch fixes illegal __GFP_FS allocation inside ext3 transaction in
ext3_symlink().  Such allocation may re-enter ext3 code from
try_to_free_pages.  But JBD/ext3 code keeps a pointer to current journal
handle in task_struct and, hence, is not reentrable.

This bug led to "Assertion failure in journal_dirty_metadata()" messages.

8fce4d8e3b [PATCH] slab: Node rotor for freeing alien caches and remote per cpu pages.
The cache reaper currently tries to free all alien caches and all remote
per cpu pages in each pass of cache_reap.  For a machines with large number
of nodes (such as Altix) this may lead to sporadic delays of around ~10ms.
Interrupts are disabled while reclaiming creating unacceptable delays.

This patch changes that behavior by adding a per cpu reap_node variable.
Instead of attempting to free all caches, we free only one alien cache and
the per cpu pages from one remote node.  That reduces the time spend in
cache_reap.  However, doing so will lengthen the time it takes to
completely drain all remote per cpu pagesets and all alien caches.  The
time needed will grow with the number of nodes in the system.  All caches
are drained when they overflow their respective capacity.  So the drawback
here is only that a bit of memory may be wasted for awhile longer.

Details:

1. Rename drain_remote_pages to drain_node_pages to allow the specification
   of the node to drain of pcp pages.

2. Add additional functions init_reap_node, next_reap_node for NUMA
   that manage a per cpu reap_node counter.

3. Add a reap_alien function that reaps only from the current reap_node.

For us this seems to be a critical issue.  Holdoffs of an average of ~7ms
cause some HPC benchmarks to slow down significantly.  F.e.  NAS parallel
slows down dramatically.  NAS parallel has a 12-16 seconds runtime w/o rotor
compared to 5.8 secs with the rotor patches.  It gets down to 5.05 secs with
the additional interrupt holdoff reductions.

529bf6be5c [PATCH] fix file counting
I have benchmarked this on an x86_64 NUMA system and see no significant
performance difference on kernbench.  Tested on both x86_64 and powerpc.

The way we do file struct accounting is not very suitable for batched
freeing.  For scalability reasons, file accounting was
constructor/destructor based.  This meant that nr_files was decremented
only when the object was removed from the slab cache.  This is susceptible
to slab fragmentation.  With RCU based file structure, consequent batched
freeing and a test program like Serge's, we just speed this up and end up
with a very fragmented slab -

llm22:~ # cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
587730  0       758844

At the same time, I see only a 2000+ objects in filp cache.  The following
patch I fixes this problem.

This patch changes the file counting by removing the filp_count_lock.
Instead we use a separate percpu counter, nr_files, for now and all
accesses to it are through get_nr_files() api.  In the sysctl handler for
nr_files, we populate files_stat.nr_files before returning to user.

Counting files as an when they are created and destroyed (as opposed to
inside slab) allows us to correctly count open files with RCU.

21a1ea9eb4 [PATCH] rcu batch tuning
This patch adds new tunables for RCU queue and finished batches.  There are
two types of controls - number of completed RCU updates invoked in a batch
(blimit) and monitoring for high rate of incoming RCUs on a cpu (qhimark,
qlowmark).

By default, the per-cpu batch limit is set to a small value.  If the input
RCU rate exceeds the high watermark, we do two things - force quiescent
state on all cpus and set the batch limit of the CPU to INTMAX.  Setting
batch limit to INTMAX forces all finished RCUs to be processed in one shot.
 If we have more than INTMAX RCUs queued up, then we have bigger problems
anyway.  Once the incoming queued RCUs fall below the low watermark, the
batch limit is set to the default.

We need this for Alex's speedup-ext3_statfs patch and for the nr_file

counts.
