Impact: introduce new uaccess exception handling framework Introduce {get|put}_user_try and {get|put}_user_catch as new uaccess exception handling framework. {get|put}_user_try begins exception block and {get|put}_user_catch(err) ends the block and gets err if an exception occured in {get|put}_user_ex() in the block. The exception is stored thread_info->uaccess_err. The example usage of this framework is below; int func() { int err = 0; get_user_try { get_user_ex(...); get_user_ex(...); : } get_user_catch(err); return err; } Note: get_user_ex() is not clear the value when an exception occurs, it's different from the behavior of __get_user(), but I think it doesn't matter.

Since commit 75c46fa6, "x64, x2apic/intr-remap: MSI and MSI-X support for interrupt remapping infrastructure", x86 has had an implementation of arch_setup_msi_irqs(). That implementation does not call arch_setup_msi_irq(), instead it calls setup_irq(). No other x86 code calls arch_setup_msi_irq(). That leaves only arch_setup_msi_irqs() in drivers/pci/msi.c, but that routine is overridden by the x86 version of arch_setup_msi_irqs(). So arch_setup_msi_irq() is dead code, remove it.

In a discussio with Jeff Garzik, he mentioned that the serialization for the libata port probes only needs to be within the domain of a host. This means that for the first port of each host (with ID 0), we don't need to wait, so we can relax our serialization a little.

The 'rb_first()', 'rb_last()', 'rb_next()' and 'rb_prev()' calls take a pointer to an RB node or RB root. They do not change the pointed objects, so add a 'const' qualifier in order to make life of the users of these functions easier.

The sensor can be accessed via various buses. In particular, SPI, I²C and, on HP laptops, via a specific ACPI API (the only one currently supported). Separate this latest platform from the core of the sensor driver to allow support for the other bus type. The second, and more direct goal is actually to be able to merge this part with the hp-disk-leds driver, which has the same ACPI PNP number.

Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which suspends write requests. So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and replication) while it is mounted. In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g. VxFS) has the freeze feature and it would be used to get the consistent backup. If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it without a commercial filesystem. So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature. I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps. 1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl. 2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot with the storage device's feature. 3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl. 4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume or the snapshot. This patch: VFS: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they can return an error. Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion. ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed, and unlockfs always returns 0. reiserfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.
