[PATCH] USB ATM: new usbatm core
Rework the core usbatm code: minidrivers (i.e. drivers for particular
modems) now register themselves with the usbatm core, supplying methods
for binding/unbinding etc. The design was inspired by usb-serial and
usbnet. At the same time, more common code from the speedtch and
cxacru (patch 3/5) drivers was generalized and moved into the core. The
transmission and reception parts have been unified and simplified. Since
this is a major change and I don't like underscores in file names,
usb_atm.[ch] has been renamed usbatm.[ch].
Many thanks to Roman Kagan, who did a lot of the coding.

Partial OTG support for dummy_hcd, mostly as a framework for further work.
It emulates the new OTG flags in the host and peripheral frameworks, if

- Resetting the peripheral needs to clear the OTG state bits;
a second enumeration won't work correctly.
- This stops modeling HNP right when roles should switch the first time.
It should probably disconnect, then set the usb_bus.is_b_host and
usb_gadget.is_a_peripheral flags; then it'd enumerate almost normally,
except for the role reversal. Roles could then switch a second time,
back to "normal" (with those flags cleared).
- SRP should be modeled as "resume from port-unpowered", which is
a state that usbcore doesn't yet use.
HNP can be triggered by enabling the OTG whitelist and configuring a
gadget driver that's not in that list; or by configuring Gadget Zero
to identify itself as the HNP test device.

[PATCH] usbcore support for root-hub IRQ instead of polling
This is a revised version of an earlier patch to add support to usbcore
for driving root hubs by interrupts rather than polling.
There's a temporary flag added to struct usb_hcd, marking devices whose
drivers are aware of the new mechanism. By default that flag doesn't get
set so drivers will continue to see the same polling behavior as before.
This way we can convert the HCDs one by one to use interrupt-based event
reporting, and the temporary flag can be removed when they're all done.
Also included is a small change to the hcd_disable_endpoint routine.
Although endpoints normally shouldn't be disabled while a controller is
suspended, it's legal to do so when the controller's driver is being
rmmod'ed.
Lastly the patch adds a new callback, .hub_irq_enable, for use by HCDs
where the root hub's port-change interrupts are level-triggered rather
than edge-triggered. The callback is invoked each time khubd has finished
processing a root hub, to let the HCD know that the interrupt can safely
be re-enabled.

2) netlink_autobind() needs to propagate the error return from
netlink_insert(). Otherwise, callers will not see the error
as they should and thus try to operate on a socket with a zero pid,
which is very bad.
However, it should not propagate -EBUSY. If two threads race
to autobind the socket, that is fine. This is consistent with the
autobind behavior in other protocols.
So bug #1 above, combined with this one, resulted in hangs
on netlink_sendmsg() calls to the rtnetlink socket. We'd try
to do the user sendmsg() with the socket's pid set to zero,
later we do a socket lookup using that pid (via the value we
stashed away in NETLINK_CB(skb).pid), but that won't give us the
user socket, it will give us the rtnetlink socket. So when we

which tries to recursively take the rtnetlink semaphore.

Result: slightly improves IRQ handler performance in both shared and
non-shared IRQ case, which should make my rusty P3/700 a slight bit happier.

[PATCH] arlan: module parameter fixes
Make sure the code compiles with and without ARLAN_ENTRY_EXIT_DEBUGGING.

Remove "arlan_"-prefix to shape up built-in parameter names:
[PATCH] net/sis900: Use the DMA_32BIT_MASK constant
Use the DMA_32BIT_MASK constant from dma-mapping.h when calling
pci_set_dma_mask() or pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() instead of custom
macros.
This patch includes dma-mapping.h explicitly because it caused errors
on some architectures otherwise.
See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=108001993000001&r=1&w=2 for details
The spin loop in 8139cp is limited to 100 iterations when pulling hardware
stats. There is no allowance for processor speed so on a fast machine, the
stats may not be available that fast. Also, if the board doesn't return
soon enough make sure turn the address back off to prevent later updates
when memory has gone away.

bonding: xor/802.3ad improved slave hash
Add support for alternate slave selection algorithms to bonding
balance-xor and 802.3ad modes. Default mode (what we have now: xor of
MAC addresses) is "layer2", new choice is "layer3+4", using IP and port
information for hashing to select peer.
Originally submitted by Jason Gabler for balance-xor mode;
modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally support 802.3ad mode. Jason's
original comment is as follows:
The attached patch to the Linux Etherchannel Bonding driver modifies the
driver's "balance-xor" mode as follows:
- alternate hashing policy support for mode 2
* Added kernel parameter "xmit_policy" to allow the specification
of different hashing policies for mode 2. The original mode 2
policy is the default, now found in xmit_hash_policy_layer2().
* Added xmit_hash_policy_layer34()
This patch was inspired by hashing policies implemented by Cisco,
Foundry and IBM, which are explained in
Foundry documentation found at:

[PATCH] ARM: 2757/1: remove ixdp2400_init_irq from ixdp2800 code
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
Compiling one kernel that supports both ixdp2400 and ixdp2800 gives
an error, as a copy of the ixdp2400 irq init routing accidentally
ended up in ixdp2800.c somehow.

Add a mapping for the ixp2400 and ixp2800 msf unit. The msf is the
ixp2000's 'media and switch fabric' unit, which handles the networking
part of the chip.

All ixdp platforms currently have a cpld mapped in at 0xfafff000.
Since this address is not 1M-aligned, a regular page mapping will be
used instead of a section mapping, which opens up the possibility of
triggering ixp2400 erratum #66 as we only do the XCB=101 workaround
thing for section mappings.
There is still a lot of space higher up in the virtual memory map
for 1M mappings, so move the cpld mapping to 0xfe000000 and make it
1M big so that a section mapping will be used for it.

1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:
frozen(process) Check for frozen process
freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen
freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
thaw_process(process) Restart process
frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now
2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
kernel sources except sched.h
3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver
4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.
5. Some whitespace cleanup
6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
PF_FROZEN).
This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!
