Users seem to think that the isolated CPUs shouldn't have much running on

/sbin/init is spawned from the boot CPU's idle thread, and /sbin/init
starts the rest of userspace. So if the boot CPU is specified to be an

[PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbers
These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when
communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required
because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS
for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace
automatically where the arch supports it.
Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode
number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and
failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and
so overlaps occur.
This patch:
Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit
inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace.
The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where
available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode
number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then
error EOVERFLOW will be issued.
Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode
number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a
directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented.
Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit
system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that
there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to.
Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a
32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the
same reasons.
It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc
uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions
exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter
unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

[PATCH] hp100: fix conditional compilation mess
The previous hp100 changeset attempted to kill warnings, but was only
tested on !CONFIG_ISA platforms. The correct conditional compilation
setup involves tested CONFIG_ISA rather than just MODULE.
Fixes link on CONFIG_ISA platforms (i386) in current -git.

Move the call to ib_register_device() later, since a device should not
be registered until it is completely read to be used. This fixes
crashes that occur if an upper-layer driver such as IPoIB is loaded
before the ehca module.

Reorganize code relating to cma_get_net_info() and rdam_create_id() to
optimize error case handling (no need to alloc memory/etc. as part of
rdma_create_id() if input parameters are wrong).

A process : cma_process_remove() calls cma_remove_id_dev(),
which sets id state to CMA_DEVICE_REMOVAL and
calls wait_event(dev_remove).
B process : cma_req_handler() had incremented dev_remove,
and calls cma_acquire_ib_dev() and on failure
calls cma_release_remove(), which does a
wake_up of cma_process_remove(). Then
cma_req_handler() calls rdma_destroy_id();
A Process : cma_remove_id_dev() gets woken and checks the
state of id, and since it is still (wrongly)
CMA_DEVICE_REMOVAL, it calls notify_user(id)
and if that fails, the caller - cma_process_remove()
calls rdma_destroy_id(id). Two processes can
call rdma_destroy_id(), resulting in one
de-referencing kfreed id_priv.
Fix is for process B to set CMA_DESTROYING in cma_req_handler()
so that process A will return instead of doing a rdma_destroy_id().

[WATCHDOG] use ENOTTY instead of ENOIOCTLCMD in ioctl()
Return ENOTTY instead of ENOIOCTLCMD in user-visible ioctl() results
The watchdog drivers used to return ENOIOCTLCMD for bad ioctl() commands.
ENOIOCTLCMD should not be visible by the user, so use ENOTTY instead.

[WATCHDOG] s3c24XX nowayout
If the driver is not configured for `no way out`,
then the open method should not automatically allow
the setting of allow_close to CLOSE_STATE_ALLOW.
The setting of allow_close nullifies the use of
the magic close via the write path. It means that
in the default state, the watchdog will shut-down
even if the magic close has not been issued.
