      sparc32: More memory probing consolidation. · 9f2b2a5f
      David S. Miller authored 
      The PROM library function prom_meminit() builds a table,
prom_phys_avail[], just so that probe_memory() in
arch/sparc/mm/fault.c can copy it into sp_banks[].

Just have prom_meminit() fill in the sp_banks[] array directly, and
remove duplicated sort() function.

      sparc32: Kill totally unused memory information tables. · ccc34028
      David S. Miller authored 
      The code in arch/sparc/prom/memory.c computes three tables, the list
of total memory, the list of available memory (total minus what
firmware is using), and the list of firmware taken memory.

Only the available memory list is even used.

Therefore, kill those unused tables and make prom_meminfo() return
just the available memory list.

      sparc64: Fix syscall restart, for real... · 2678fefe
      David S. Miller authored 
      The change I put into copy_thread() just papered over the real
problem.

When we are looking to see if we should do a syscall restart, when
deliverying a signal, we should only interpret the syscall return
value as an error if the carry condition code(s) are set.

Otherwise it's a success return.

Also, sigreturn paths should do a pt_regs_clear_trap_type().

It turns out that doing a syscall restart when returning from a fork()
does and should happen, from time to time.  Even if copy_thread()
returns success, copy_process() can still unwind and signal
-ERESTARTNOINTR in the parent.

      serial: Fix sparc driver name strings. · 32039f49
      David S. Miller authored 
      They were all "serial" so if multiple of these drivers registered,
we'd trigger sysfs directory creation errors:

      sparc64: Stop creating dummy root PCI host controller devices. · c26d3c01
      David S. Miller authored 
      It just creates confusion, errors, and bugs.

For one thing, this can cause dup sysfs or procfs nodes to get
created:
