This patch reworks the cell iic interrupt handling so that:
- Node ID is back in the interrupt number (only one IRQ host is created
for all nodes). This allows interrupts from sources on another node to
be routed non-locally. This will allow possibly one day to fix maxcpus=1
or 2 and still get interrupts from devices on BE 1. (A bit more fixing
is needed for that) and it will allow us to implement actual affinity
control of external interrupts.
- Added handling of the IO exceptions interrupts (badly named, but I
re-used the name initially used by STI). Those are the interrupts
exposed by IIC_ISR and IIC_IRR, such as the IOC translation exception,
performance monitor, etc... Those get their special numbers in the IRQ
number space and are internally implemented as a cascade on unit 0xe,
class 1 of each node.

V4L/DVB (4681): Cx88: fix analog capture notch filter
This patch changes the setting of the cx2388x notch filter to match that of
the video capture sample frequency, removing some annoying interference
lines THAT would appear when capturing composite video. This has been tested
in PAL and NTSC TV norms.
It sets the Y/C separation luma notch filter, which removes the chroma signal
from the luma signal when using a composite input.
The luma notch filter operates at the video decoder's frequency, not the ADC's
frequency or at the frequency of the scaled video. Y/C separation happens after
the sample rate converter, before video scaling.
The datasheet provides plots of the filter response for three _video decoder_
frequencies, 4x Fsc, square pixel, and ccir601. These are the same three
frequencies for the notch filter control. It seems pretty clear that this
filter should be set based on the video decoder frequency. The cx88 driver
always uses a video decoder frequency of 4xFsc.

[MIPS] BCM1250: TRDY timeout tweaks for Broadcom SiByte systems
It was obesrved that at least one older PCI card predating the
requirement for the TRDY signal to respond within 16 clock ticks actually
does not meet this rule nor even the power-on defaults of the PCI bridges
found in development systems built around the Broadcom SiByte SOCs. Here
is a patch that bumps up the timeout to the highest finite value supported
by these chips, which is 255 clock ticks. The bridges affected are the
SiByte SOC itself and the SP1011.
This change does not effectively affect systems only having PCI option
cards installed that meet the TRDY requirement of the current PCI spec.
The rule was introduced with PCI 2.1, so any older card may make the
system affected. If this is the case, performance of the system will
suffer in return for the card working at all. If this is a concern, then
the solution is not to use such cards.

Jesper Juhl reported that testing the software math-emulation by forcing

The reason was two-fold:
- you also need to pass in "nofxsr" to make sure that we not only don't
touch the old i387 legacy hardware, it also needs to disable the
modern XMM/FXSR sequences
- "nofxsr" didn't actually clear the capability bits immediately,

This fixes the "nofxsr" flag to take effect immediately on the boot CPU.

md/raid did neither of these. This patch add a congested_fn which simply
checks all component devices to see if they are congested.

[PATCH] md: Improve locking around error handling
The error handling routines don't use proper locking, and so two concurrent
errors could trigger a problem.
So:
- use test-and-set and test-and-clear to synchonise
the In_sync bits with the ->degraded count
- use the spinlock to protect updates to the
degraded count (could use an atomic_t but that
would be a bigger change in code, and isn't
really justified)
- remove un-necessary locking in raid5
