This creates a new RTC-framework driver for the RTC/calendar module found in various OMAP1 chips. (OMAP2 and OMAP3 use external RTCs, like those in TI's multifunction PM companion chips.) It's been in the Linux-OMAP tree for several months now, and other trees before that, so it's quite stable. The most notable issue is that the OMAP IRQ code doesn't yet support the RTC IRQ as a wakeup event. Once that's fixed, a patch will be needed. Signed-off-by:

When CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n, parport_pc calls some __devinit == __init code that could be discarded. These calls are made from parport_irq_probe(), which is called from parport_pc_probe_port(), which is an exported symbol, so the calls could (possibly) happen after init time.

There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn, prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add #ifdefs. the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine: text data bss dec hex filename 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.before 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.after [akpm@osdl.org: topology.c fix] Signed-off-by: -

smp_call_function_single() can deadlock if the caller disabled local interrupts (the target CPU could be spinning on call_lock). Check for that. Why on earth do these functions use spin_lock_bh()??

When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some processes might be preempted on the buffer. The freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer. There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag. If those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing. However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time. So, this patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot. It also introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency. The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released immediately. But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are marked as garbages. collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release "dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if there are no unused slots.

Currently we allocate 64k space on the user stack and use it the msgbuf for sys_{msgrcv,msgsnd} for compat and the results are later copied in user [ by copy_in_user]. This patch introduces helper routines for sys_{msgrcv,msgsnd} as below: do_msgsnd() : Accepts the mtype and user space ptr to the buffer along with the msqid and msgflg. do_msgrcv() : Accepts a kernel space ptr to mtype and a userspace ptr to the buffer. The mtype has to be copied back the user space msgbuf by the caller. These changes avoid the need to allocate the msgsize on the userspace ( thus removing the size limt ) and the overhead of an extra copy_in_user().
