47a8659380 libata: bitmask based pci init functions for one or two ports
This redoes the n_ports logic I proposed before as a bitmask.
ata_pci_init_native_mode is now used with a mask allowing for mixed mode
stuff later on. ata_pci_init_legacy_port is called with port number and
does one port now not two. Instead it is called twice by the ata init
logic which cleans both of them up.

There are stil limits in the original code left over

- IRQ/port mapping for legacy mode should be arch specific values
- You can have one legacy mode IDE adapter per PCI root bridge on some systems
- Doesn't handle mixed mode devices yet (but is now a lot closer to it)

897f15fb58 [PATCH] aio: remove unlocked task_list test and resulting race
Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run
list.  If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a
freed iocb.  The kick path could delete the task_list item from the wait
queue before getting the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list.
The run path was testing the task_list item outside the lock so that it
could catch ki_retry methods that return -EIOCBRETRY *without* putting the
iocb on a wait queue and promising to call kick_iocb.  This unlocked check
could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on
the run list.

The patch stops the run path from testing task_list by requring that any
ki_retry that returns -EIOCBRETRY *must* guarantee that kick_iocb() will be
called in the future.  aio_p{read,write}, the only in-tree -EIOCBRETRY
users, are updated.

Roland points out that the flags end up having non-obvious dependencies

aa55a08687 [PATCH] fix TASK_STOPPED vs TASK_NONINTERACTIVE interaction
do_signal_stop:

	for_each_thread(t) {
		if (t->state < TASK_STOPPED)
			++sig->group_stop_count;
	}

However, TASK_NONINTERACTIVE > TASK_STOPPED, so this loop will not
count TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE | TASK_NONINTERACTIVE threads.

See also wait_task_stopped(), which checks ->state > TASK_STOPPED.

[ We really probably should always use the appropriate bitmasks to test
  task states, not do it like this. Using something like

	#define TASK_RUNNABLE (TASK_RUNNING | TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE | \
				TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE | TASK_NONINTERACTIVE)

  and then doing "if (task->state & TASK_RUNNABLE)" or similar. But the
  ordering of the task states is historical, and keeping the ordering
  does make sense regardless. ]

664cceb009 [PATCH] Keys: Add possessor permissions to keys [try #3]
The attached patch adds extra permission grants to keys for the possessor of a
key in addition to the owner, group and other permissions bits. This makes
SUID binaries easier to support without going as far as labelling keys and key
targets using the LSM facilities.

This patch adds a second "pointer type" to key structures (struct key_ref *)
that can have the bottom bit of the address set to indicate the possession of
a key. This is propagated through searches from the keyring to the discovered
key. It has been made a separate type so that the compiler can spot attempts
to dereference a potentially incorrect pointer.

The "possession" attribute can't be attached to a key structure directly as
it's not an intrinsic property of a key.

Pointers to keys have been replaced with struct key_ref *'s wherever
possession information needs to be passed through.

This does assume that the bottom bit of the pointer will always be zero on
return from kmem_cache_alloc().

The key reference type has been made into a typedef so that at least it can be
located in the sources, even though it's basically a pointer to an undefined
type. I've also renamed the accessor functions to be more useful, and all
reference variables should now end in "_ref".

2fab35d78f [NET]: Fix GCC4 compile error: sysctl in linux/if_ether.h
The following is generated when compiling a
recent (2.6.14-rc2-git5) kernel configured for
ARM, with GCC4. 

  CC      init/main.o
In file included from include/linux/netdevice.h:29,
                 from include/net/sock.h:48,
                 from init/main.c:50:
include/linux/if_ether.h:114: error: array type has incomplete element type

It seems that if CONFIG_SYSCTL is not set, then
the compiler will throw an error due to the definition
of the ether_table[] array

Attached is a solution to the problem

9356b8fc07 [NET]: Reorder some hot fields of struct net_device
Place them on separate cache lines in SMP to lower memory bouncing
between multiple CPU accessing the device.

     - One part is mostly used on receive path (including
       eth_type_trans()) (poll_list, poll, quota, weight, last_rx,
       dev_addr, broadcast)

     - One part is mostly used on queue transmit path (qdisc)
      (queue_lock, qdisc, qdisc_sleeping, qdisc_list, tx_queue_len)

     - One part is mostly used on xmit path (device)
      (xmit_lock, xmit_lock_owner, priv, hard_start_xmit, trans_start)

'features' is placed outside of these hot points, in a location that
may be shared by all cpus (because mostly read)

name_hlist is moved close to name[IFNAMSIZ] to speedup __dev_get_by_name()

188bab3ae0 [NETFILTER]: Fix invalid module autoloading by splitting iptable_nat
When you've enabled conntrack and NAT as a module (standard case in all
distributions), and you've also enabled the new conntrack netlink
interface, loading ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will auto-load iptable_nat.ko.
This causes a huge performance penalty, since for every packet you iterate
the nat code, even if you don't want it.

This patch splits iptable_nat.ko into the NAT core (ip_nat.ko) and the
iptables frontend (iptable_nat.ko).  Threfore, ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will
only pull ip_nat.ko, but not the frontend.  ip_nat.ko will "only" allocate
some resources, but not affect runtime performance.

This separation is also a nice step in anticipation of new packet filters
(nf-hipac, ipset, pkttables) being able to use the NAT core.

8c3520d4eb [PATCH] yenta: auto-tune EnE bridges for CardBus cards
Echo Audio cardbus products are known to be incompatible with EnE bridges.
in order to maybe solve the problem a EnE specific test bit has to be set,
another cleared...but other setups have a good chance to break when just
forcing the bits.  so do the whole thingy automatically.

The patch adds a hook in cb_alloc() that allows special tuning for the
different chipsets.  for ene just match the Echo products and set/clear the
test bits, defaults to do the same thing as w/o the patch to not break
working setups.
