Fix be not setting kvm_arch_ops until we're sure it's good.

[PATCH] PCI: prevent down_read when pci_devices is empty

The pci_find_subsys gets called very early by obsolete ide setup parameters.
This is a bogus call since pci is not initialized yet, so the list is empty.
But in the mean time, interrupts get enabled by down_read.  This can result in
a kernel panic when the irq controller gets initialized.

This patch checks if the device list is empty before taking the semaphore, and
hence will not enable irq's.  Furthermore it will inform that it is called
while pci_devices is empty as a reminder that the ide code needs to be fixed.

The pci_get_subsys can get called in the same manner, and as such is patched
in the same manner.

[PATCH] cdrom: set default timeout to 7 seconds

It's a known fact that Windows times out commands after 7 seconds, so
drives generally try and respond if they can before that happens.  We
default to 5 seconds, which sometimes is a bit too short.

Jeremy Higdon reported here:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/1/145

that his drive takes longer than 5 seconds for a "read track
information" command, later confirming that it is about 6.7 seconds.

So just do the sane thing and change the default command timeout to 7
seconds to avoid other surprises.

[PATCH] libata: fix combined mode

This is a slight variant on the patch I posted December 16th to fix
libata combined mode handling. The only real change is that we now
correctly also reserve BAR1,2,4. That is basically a neatness issue.

Jeff was unhappy about two things

1. That it didn't work in the case of one channel native one channel
legacy.

This is a silly complaint because the SFF layer in libata doesn't handle
this case yet anyway.

2. The case where combined mode is in use and IDE=n.

In this case the libata quirk code reserves the resources in question
correctly already.

Once the combined mode stuff is redone properly (2.6.21) then the entire
mess turns into a single pci_request_regions() for all cases and all the
ugly resource hackery goes away.

I'm sending this now rather than after running full test suites so that
it can get the maximal testing in a short time. I'll be running tests on
this after lunch.

1. Load the supported arch's module.

This patch initializes kvm_arch_ops upon loading architecture specific kvm

[PATCH] SPI: define null tx_buf to mean "shift out zeroes"

Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what
it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are
(from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads.

Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from
"undefined" to "will shift zeroes".  This lets protocol drivers (like the
ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior.  It's what most controller drivers
in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver
wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing,
and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to
define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels.

This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and
updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.

cond_resched() call is only legal if we are not in an atomic context, with
two narrow exceptions:

 - if the system is booting
 - a reacquire_kernel_lock() down() done while PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set

But __resched_legal() hid this and just silently returned whenever
these primitives were called from invalid contexts. (Same goes for
cond_resched_locked() and cond_resched_softirq()).

Furthermore, the __legal_resched(0) call was buggy in that it caused
unnecessarily long softirq latencies via cond_resched_softirq().  (which is
only called from softirq-off sections, hence the code did nothing.)

The fix is to resurrect the efficiency of the might_sleep checks and to
only allow the narrow exceptions.

17 years ago[PATCH] fix mrproper incompleteness

[PATCH] fix mrproper incompleteness

include/linux/utsrelease.h and include/linux/version.h aren't removed any
more by mrproper in kernel 2.6.20-rc2.  The patch below fixes this.

The definition of MRPROPER_FILES looks weird: generated-headers looks like
a misspelling of generated_headers, but that one is a Makefile target, not
a variable or a file, so I don't see how including it in MRPROPER_FILES
could have any effect.
