I missed an obvious one! x86 CPUs are defined not to reorder stores past earlier loads, so there is no hardware memory barrier required to implement a release-consistent store (all stores are, by definition). So ditch the generic lock bitops, and implement optimised versions for x86, which removes the mfence from __clear_bit_unlock (which is already a useful primitive for SLUB).

Commits 58b053e4 ("Update arch/ to use sg helpers") 45711f1a ("[SG] Update drivers to use sg helpers") fa05f128 ("Update net/ to use sg helpers") converted many files to use the scatter gather helpers without ensuring that the necessary headerfile <linux/scatterlist> is included. This happened to work for ia64, powerpc, sparc64 and x86 because they happened to drag in that file via their <asm/dma-mapping.h>. On most of the others this probably broke. Instead of increasing the header file spider web I choose to include <linux/scatterlist.h> directly into the affectes files.

As it is some callers of synchronize_irq rely on memory barriers to provide synchronisation against the IRQ handlers. For example, the tg3 driver does tp->irq_sync = 1; smp_mb(); synchronize_irq(); and then in the IRQ handler: if (!tp->irq_sync) netif_rx_schedule(dev, &tp->napi); Unfortunately memory barriers only work well when they come in pairs. Because we don't actually have memory barriers on the IRQ path, the memory barrier before the synchronize_irq() doesn't actually protect us. In particular, synchronize_irq() may return followed by the result of netif_rx_schedule being made visible. This patch (mostly written by Linus) fixes this by using spin locks instead of memory barries on the synchronize_irq() path.

Reduce the function pointer mess of the m68knommu timer code by calling directly to the local hardware's timer setup, and expose the local common timer interrupt handler to the lower level hardware timer. Ultimately this will save definitions of all these functions across all the platform code to setup the function pointers (which for any given m68knommu CPU family member can be only one set of hardware timer functions).

A new style serial driver for the Freescale ColdFire UART to replace the old style one currently in the tree (drivers/serial/mcfserial.c). Currently this UART is only found in the ColdFire CPU family of parts (thus I prefixed this patch [M68KNOMMU]). This has been around for a long while now, tested on all available platforms.

Up to now m68knommu has been using the asm-m68k/module.h instead of defining its own. There are recent changes there that we don't need (fixups specifically). We don't need much support here so it makes sense to have an m68knommu specific one now. Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

ops_complete_biofill() runs outside of spin_lock(&sh->lock) and clears the 'pending' and 'ack' bits.
