[PATCH] uml: close TUN/TAP file descriptors
When UML opens a TUN/TAP device, the file descriptor could be copied into
later, long-lived threads, holding the device open even after the interface is
taken down, preventing it from being brought up again. This patch makes these
descriptors close-on-exec so that they disappear from helper processes, and
adds CLONE_FILES to a UML helper thread so that the descriptors are closed in
the thread when they are closed elsewhere in UML.

[PATCH] __cmpxchg() must really always be inlined on alpha
With the latest 2.6.15 kernel builds for alpha on Debian, we ran into a
problem with undefined references to __cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer() in
a couple of kernel modules (xfs.ko and drm.ko; see
http://bugs.debian.org/347556).
It looks like people have been trying to out-clever each other wrt the
definition of "inline" on this architecture :), with the result that
__cmpxchg(), which must be inlined so the compiler can see its argument is
const, is not guaranteed to be inlined. Indeed, it was not being inlined
when building with -Os.
The attached patch fixes the issue by adding an
__attribute__((always_inline)) explicitly to the definition of __cmpxchg()
instead of relying on redefines of "inline" elsewhere to make this happen.

[PATCH] x86_64: Fix the node cpumask of a cpu going down
Currently, x86_64 and ia64 arches do not clear the corresponding bits in
the node's cpumask when a cpu goes down or cpu bring up is cancelled. This
is buggy since there are pieces of common code where the cpumask is checked
in the cpu down code path to decide on things (like in the slab down path).
PPC does the right thing, but x86_64 and ia64 don't (This was the reason
Sonny hit upon a slab bug during cpu offline on ppc and could not reproduce
on other arches). This patch fixes it for x86_64. I won't attempt ia64 as
I cannot test it.
Credit for spotting this should go to Alok.
(akpm: this was applied, then reverted. But it's OK now because we now use
for_each_cpu() in the right places).
[MIPS] TX49x7: Fix reporting of the CPU name and PCI clock

Also, RBTX49x7 was printed out as a CPU name (e.g., "CPU is RBTX4937");
and some debug printk() were duplicating each other...
