As it turns out, the kernel divides by EXT3_INODES_PER_GROUP(s) when
mounting an ext3 filesystem. If that number is zero, a crash follows.
Below a patch.

alpha: strncpy/strncat fixes
First of all, thanks to Bob Tracy <rct@frus.com> and
Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> for testing.
Especially to Bob, as he has done titanic multi-day git-bisect
work that finally helped to reproduce and nail down the bug
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9457).
[ev6-]stxncpy.S: it's t12, not t2 register that is supposed to contain
the last byte offset upon return. As a result of wrong register use
(which was my fault back in 2003, IIRC), under some circumstances extra
terminating zero bytes were added to destination string. This particularly
led to incorrect DEVPATH strings generated in uevent and therefore to udev
problems.
strncpy.S: unrelated bug I found while testing the above fix - destination
is not properly zero-padded then a byte count exceeds source length.
Actually this is addition to strncpy fix from last year.

uml: stop gdb from deleting breakpoints when running UML
Sometimes when UML is debugged gdb miss breakpoints.
When process traced by gdb do fork, debugger remove breakpoints from
child address space. There is possibility to trace more than one fork,
but this not work with UML, I guess (only guess) there is a deadlock -
gdb waits for UML and UML waits for gdb.
When clone() is called with SIGCHLD and CLONE_VM flags, gdb see this
as PTRACE_EVENT_FORK not as PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE and remove breakpoints
from child and at the same time from traced process, because either
have the same address space.
Maybe it is possible to do fix in gdb, but I'm not sure if there is
easy way to find out if traced and child processes share memory. So I
do fix for UML, it simply do not call clone() with both SIGCHLD and
CLONE_VM flags together. Additionally __WALL flag is used for
waitpid() to assure not miss clone and normal process events.

usb: Remove broken optimisation in OHCI IRQ handler
The OHCI IRQ handler has an optimisation that avoids reading some
chip registers when the controller reports that the interrupt was

controller's "done list" and handed to the host.
This mechanism can't be used on some controllers. Among others, it
fails for the SA1111 and the AMCC 440EP PowerPC processor.

introduced a bug in regard to pud/pmd table entries.
If the address of the page table refered to by a pud/pmd value happens
to have zeroes in the lower 32 bits, pud_present and pmd_present return
false. The obvious effect is that this triggers the BUG_ON in exit_mmap
because some ptes will not get released on process end. Worse is that
the next fault for memory covered by that pud/pmd will allocate another
pmd/pte table and populate the pud/pmd entry. The old page table
entries hanging below this entry are lost!
The fix is simple, properly check against 0. The check is added for
pud_none/pmd_none as well even if these two functions work because
the invalid bit is in the lower 32 bits.

[ATM]: Fix compiler warning noise with FORE200E driver
gcc throws these warnings with:
CONFIG_ATM_FORE200E=m
# CONFIG_ATM_FORE200E_PCA is not set

not used

By moving the #ifdef CONFIG_ATM_FORE200E_PCA around those two functions,
the compiler warnings are silenced.

[NETFILTER]: bridge: fix missing link layer headers on outgoing routed packets
As reported by Damien Thebault, the double POSTROUTING hook invocation
fix caused outgoing packets routed between two bridges to appear without
a link-layer header. The reason for this is that we're skipping the
br_nf_post_routing hook for routed packets now and don't save the
original link layer header, but nevertheless tries to restore it on
output, causing corruption.
The root cause for this is that skb->nf_bridge has no clearly defined
lifetime and is used to indicate all kind of things, but that is
quite complicated to fix. For now simply don't touch these packets
and handle them like packets from any other device.

[NETFILTER]: ip_tables: fix compat copy race
When copying entries to user, the kernel makes two passes through the
data, first copying all the entries, then fixing up names and counters.
On the second pass it copies the kernel and match data from userspace
to the kernel again to find the corresponding structures, expecting
that kernel pointers contained in the data are still valid.
This is obviously broken, fix by avoiding the second pass completely
and fixing names and counters while dumping the ruleset, using the
kernel-internal data structures.

The __weak definition of plat_time_init was only ever meant to be a
migration helper to keep platforms that don't have a plat_time_init
compiling. A few greps says that all platforms now supply their own
plat_time_init() so the weak definition is no longer needed. So I
instead delete it.

[POWERPC] Make PS3_SYS_MANAGER default y, not m
Currently it's impossible to build a ps3_defconfig which will reboot
without modules installed. This makes it all too easy to find yourself
with a PS3 that won't reboot.
This is because the system manager driver, which provides the reboot
mechanism, is only selectable if PS3_ADVANCED is set, else it defaults
to m. In ps3_defconfig PS3_ADVANCED is not set, therefore the system
manager is built as a module.
It would be desirable IMHO for the defconfig to produce a kernel that
boots and reboots, without needing modules to be installed.

[POWERPC] Fix rounding bug in emulation for double float operating
This patch fixes rounding bug in emulation for double float operating on PowerPC platform.
When pack double float operand, it need to truncate the tail due to the limited precision.
If the truncated part is not zero, the last bit of work bit (totally 3 bits) need to '|' 1.
This patch is completed in _FP_FRAC_SRS_2(X,N,sz) (arch/powerpc/math-emu/op-2.h).
Originally the code leftwards rotates the operand to just keep the truncated part,
then check whether it is zero. However, the number it rotates is not correct when
N is not smaller than _FP_W_TYPE_SIZE, and it will cause the work bit '|' 1 in the improper case.
This patch fixes this issue.

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: fix lenovo keymap for brightness
Starting in 2.6.23...
Several reports from X60 users complained that the default Lenovo keymap
issuing EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP/DOWN input events caused major issues when
the proper brightness support through ACPI video.c was loaded.
Therefore, remove the generation of these events by default, which is the
right thing for T60, X60, R60, T61, X61 and R61 with their latest BIOSes.
Distros that want to misuse these events into OSD reporting (which requires
an ugly hack from hell in HAL) are welcome to set up the key map they need
through HAL. That way, we don't break everyone else's systems.
