uml: fix string exporting on UML/i386
In 2.6.23-rc1, i386 fiddled its string support such that UML started getting
undefined references from modules. The UML asm/string.h was including the
i386 string.h, which defined __HAVE_ARCH_STR*, but the corresponding
implementations weren't being pulled in.
This is fixed by adding arch/i386/lib/string.h to the list of host
architecture files to be pulled in to UML.
A complication is that the libc exports file assumed that the generic strlen
and strstr weren't in use (i.e. __HAVE_ARCH_STR is defined), then they aren't
exported. This is untrue for strlen, which is exported in either case, so
this logic is not needed.

The fallocate syscall returns ENOSYS in case the filesystem does not support
the operation and expects the userlevel code to fill in. This is good in
concept.
The problem is that the libc code for old kernels should be able to
distinguish the case where the syscall is not at all available vs not
functioning for a specific mount point. As is this is not possible and we
always have to invoke the syscall even if the kernel doesn't support it.
I suggest the following patch. Using EOPNOTSUPP is IMO the right thing to do.

This patch changes the type of mapbase in both struct uart_port and struct
plat_serial8250_port to resource_size_t, which can be configured to be 64

It'll warn people that this type is going away soonish.
Some of the code has been gradually transitioned to using the proper
struct request_queue, but there's lots left. So do a full sweet of
the kernel and get rid of this typedef and replace its uses with
the proper type.
The recent 9p commit: bd238fb431f31989898423c8b6496bc8c4204a86 that
supposedly only moved files also introduced a new 9p sysctl interface
that did not properly register it's sysctl binary numbers.
And since it was only for debugging clearly did not need a binary fast
path in any case. So this patch just remove the binary numbers.
See Documentation/sysctl/ctl_unnumbered.txt for more details.
While I was at it I cleaned up the sysctl initializers a little as
well so there is less to read.

[ARM] 4461/1: MXC platform and i.MX31ADS core support
This patch adds the foundation pieces for
the Freescale MXC platforms, including
i.MX2 and i.MX3 based systems.
The bare-bones MX31 support in this patch
boots to the rootdev panic with 8250 serial
console configured "console=ttyS0,115200".
It assumes that Redboot is the boot loader.

[PATCH] get rid of AVC_PATH postponed treatment
Selinux folks had been complaining about the lack of AVC_PATH
records when audit is disabled. I must admit my stupidity - I assumed
that avc_audit() really couldn't use audit_log_d_path() because of
deadlocks (== could be called with dcache_lock or vfsmount_lock held).
Shouldn't have made that assumption - it never gets called that way.
It _is_ called under spinlocks, but not those.
Since audit_log_d_path() uses ab->gfp_mask for allocations,
kmalloc() in there is not a problem. IOW, the simple fix is sufficient:
let's rip AUDIT_AVC_PATH out and simply generate pathname as part of main
record. It's trivial to do.

The sanity check in audit_match_class() is wrong. We are able to audit
2048 syscalls but in audit_match_class() we were accidentally using
sizeof(_u32) instead of number of bits in _u32 when deciding how many
syscalls were valid. On ia64 in particular we were hitting syscall
numbers over the (wrong) limit of 256. Fixing the audit_match_class
check takes care of the problem.

Some HW platforms, such as the new cell blades, requires some MPIC sources
to be left alone by the operating system. This implements support for
a "protected-sources" property in the mpic controller node containing a list
of source numbers to be protected against operating system interference.
For those interested in the gory details, the MPIC on the southbridge of
those blades has some of the processor outputs routed to the cell, and
at least one routed as a GPIO to the service processor. It will be used
in the GA product for routing some of the southbridge error interrupts
to the service processor which implements some of the RAS stuff, such
as checkstopping when fatal errors occurs before they can propagate.

[POWERPC] Allow exec faults on readable areas on classic 32-bit PowerPC
Classic 32-bit PowerPC CPUs, and the early 64-bit PowerPC CPUs, don't
provide a way to prevent execution from readable pages, that is, the
MMU doesn't distinguish between data reads and instruction reads,
although a different exception is taken for faults in data accesses
and instruction accesses.
Commit 9ba4ace39fdfe22268daca9f28c5df384ae462cf, in the course of
fixing another bug, added a check that meant that a page fault due
to an instruction access would fail if the vma did not have the
VM_EXEC flag set. This gives an inconsistent enforcement on these
CPUs of the no-execute status of the vma (since reading from the page
is sufficient to allow subsequent execution from it), and causes old
versions of ppc32 glibc (2.2 and earlier) to fail, since they rely
on executing the word before the GOT but don't have it marked
executable.
This fixes the problem by allowing execution from readable (or writable)
areas on CPUs which do not provide separate control over data and
instruction reads.

[POWERPC] Fix future firmware feature fixups function failure
Move firmware feature initialisation from pSeries_init_early to the
earlier pSeries_probe_hypertas so they are initialised before firmware
feature fixups are applied.
Currently firmware feature sections are only used for iSeries which
initialises the these features much earlier. This is a bug in waiting
on pSeries.
Also adds some whitespace fixups.
