Echoing the device's location code (as found in the OFDT "ibm,loc-code"

Likewise, echoing the location code into the "remove" attribute will cause

The writes will block until the respective operation has finished and return
an error code if the operation failed.
In addition, two minor tidbits are fixed:
- The fake root device used to provide a common parent for all ebus devices
is now based on device instead of of_device - it had no associated devtree

- The sysfs attributes are now generated automagically by device_register()

[POWERPC] zImage: Cleanup and improve zImage entry point
This patch re-organises the way the zImage wrapper code is entered, to
allow more flexibility on platforms with unusual entry conditions.
After this patch, a platform .o file has two options:
1) It can define a _zimage_start, in which case the platform code gets
control from the very beginning of execution. In this case the
platform code is responsible for relocating the zImage if necessary,
clearing the BSS, performing any platform specific initialization, and
finally calling start() to load and enter the kernel.
2) It can define platform_init(). In this case the generic crt0.S
handles initial entry, and calls platform_init() before calling
start(). The signature of platform_init() is changed, however, to
take up to 5 parameters (in r3..r7) as they come from the platform's
initial loader, instead of a fixed set of parameters based on OF's
usage.
When using the generic crt0.S, the platform .o can optionally
supply a custom stack to use, using the BSS_STACK() macro. If this
is not supplied, the crt0.S will assume that the loader has
supplied a usable stack.
In either case, the platform code communicates information to the
generic code (specifically, a PROM pointer for OF systems, and/or an
initrd image address supplied by the bootloader) via a global
structure "loader_info".
In addition the wrapper script is rearranged to ensure that the
platform .o is always linked first. This means that platforms where
the zImage entry point is at a fixed address or offset, rather than
being encoded in the binary header can be supported using option (1).

This patch adds a new set of more flexible convenience wrappers around
zlib, moving them to their own file, gunzip_util.c, in the process.
These wrappers allow decompressing sections of the compressed image to
different locations. In addition, they transparently handle
uncompressed data, avoiding special case code to handle uncompressed
vmlinux images.
The patch also converts main.c to use the new wrappers, using the new
flexibility to avoid decompressing the vmlinux's ELF header twice as
we did previously. That in turn means we avoid extending our

hose->cfg_addr type is "volatile unsigned int __iomem *", so
"hose->cfg_addr + X" will not make an intended address.
This patch also adds comments for usage of cfg_addr and cfg_data in
pci_controller structure. We use them in irregular way, and the
original code is short of explanations about them.

[POWERPC] No DEEPNAP on 970MP 1.0
970MP rev 1.0 is reported to have nonworking DEEPNAP support, we've had
bug reports of lockups on those machines. Appearantly Apple used them
on some dual-core dual-cpu systems. Rev 1.1 is OK, and that's the one
that all 4-way systems seem to use.

ahci: RAID mode SATA patch for Intel ICH9M
The commit was buggy in multiple ways:
- the conversion to ilog2() was incorrect to begin with
- it tested the wrong #defines, so on all architectures but FRV you'd
never see the bug except for constant arguments.
- the new "get_order()" macro used its arguments multiple times, and
didn't even parenthesize them properly
- despite the comments, it was not true that you could use it for
constant initializers, since not all architectures even use the
generic page.h header file.
All of the problems are individually fixable, but it all boils down to:
better just revert it, and re-do it from scratch.

[PATCH] Fix buffer overflow in Omnikey CardMan 4040 driver (CVE-2007-0005)
Based on a patch from Don Howard <dhoward@redhat.com>
When calling write() with a buffer larger than 512 bytes, the
driver's write buffer overflows, allowing to overwrite the EIP and
execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.
In read(), there exists a similar problem, but coming from the device.
A malicous or buggy device sending more than 512 bytes can overflow
of the driver's read buffer, with the same effects as above.
sysfs_write_file downs buffer->sem while calling flush_write_buffer, and
flushing that particular write buffer entails downing buffer->sem in
orphan_all_buffers, resulting in the obvious self-deadlock.
