pool: Improve memory usage for devices which can't cross boundaries
The previous implementation simply refused to allocate more than a
boundary's worth of data from an entire page. Some users didn't know
this, so specified things like SMP_CACHE_BYTES, not realising the
horrible waste of memory that this was. It's fairly easy to correct
this problem, just by ensuring we don't cross a boundary within a page.
This even helps drivers like EHCI (which can't cross a 4k boundary)
on machines with larger page sizes.

ACPICA: fix acpi-cpufreq boot crash due to _PSD return-by-reference
Changed resolution of named references in packages
Fixed a problem with the Package operator where all named
references were created as object references and left otherwise
unresolved. According to the ACPI specification, a Package can
only contain Data Objects or references to control methods. The
implication is that named references to Data Objects (Integer,
Buffer, String, Package, BufferField, Field) should be resolved
immediately upon package creation. This is the approach taken
with this change. References to all other named objects (Methods,
Devices, Scopes, etc.) are all now properly created as reference objects.
Commit cfb5285660aad4931b2ebbfa902ea48a37dfffa1 removed a useful feature for
us, which provided a cpu accounting resource controller. This feature would be
useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt
really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption.
The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's
original patch (Commit 62d0df64065e7c135d0002f069444fbdfc64768f), with
these differences:
- Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp
to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for
2.6.25 after more discussions.
- Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs
stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler
classes
- Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage
counter to be per-cpu
- Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the
code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly
needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing
rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in
kernel/sched.c)
The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting
information.

The Marvell 7042 chip is more or less the same as the 6042 internally,

does differ from its PCI bus counterparts in placment and layout of
certain bus related registers.
This patch fixes sata_mv to distinguish between the PCI bus registers
of earlier chips, and the PCIe bus registers of the 7042.
Specifically, move the offsets and bit patterns for the
PCI/PCIe interrupt cause/mask registers into the struct mv_host_priv,
as these values differ between the 6xxx and 7xxx series chips.
This fixes the driver to not access reserved PCI addresses,
and prevents the lockups reported in linux-2.6.24 with 7042 boards.

S2io: Fixed the case when the card initialization fails on mtu change
Fix the case when the card initialization fails on a mtu change and then
close is called (due to ifdown), which frees non existent rx buffers.
- Returning appropriate error codes in init_nic function.
- In s2io_close function s2io_card_down is called only when device is up.
- In s2io_change_mtu function return value of s2io_card_up function
is checked and returned if it failed.
Well I clearly goofed when I added the initial network namespace support
for /proc/net. Currently things work but there are odd details visible to
user space, even when we have a single network namespace.
Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just
modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the
network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the
current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method.
To accomplish that this patch:
- introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to
be returned from proc_lookup.
- Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic
- Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries.
As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can
go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code
that uses the shadow_proc method.

into the CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG-only function cache_free_debugcheck() is a
performance win of almost 0.5% on their particular benchmark.
The call was added as part of commit ddc2e812d592457747c4367fb73edcaa8e1e49ff
with the comment that "overhead should be minimal". It may have been
minimal at the time, but it isn't now.
[ Quoth Pekka Enberg: "I don't think the BUG_ON per se caused the
performance regression but rather the virt_to_head_page() changes to
virt_to_cache() that were added later." ]

[NETFILTER]: fix forgotten module release in xt_CONNMARK and xt_CONNSECMARK
Fix forgotten module release in xt_CONNMARK and xt_CONNSECMARK
When xt_CONNMARK is used outside the mangle table and the user specified
"--restore-mark", the connmark_tg_check() function will (correctly)
error out, but (incorrectly) forgets to release the L3 conntrack module.
Same for xt_CONNSECMARK.
Fix is to move the call to acquire the L3 module after the basic
constraint checks.

[DECNET]: dn_nl_deladdr() almost always returns no error
As far as I see from the err variable initialization
the dn_nl_deladdr() routine was designed to report errors
like "EADDRNOTAVAIL" and probaby "ENODEV".
But the code sets this err to 0 after the first nlmsg_parse
and goes on, returning this 0 in any case.

[IPV6]: Restore IPv6 when MTU is big enough
Avaid provided test application, so bug got fixed.
IPv6 addrconf removes ipv6 inner device from netdev each time cmu
changes and new value is less than IPV6_MIN_MTU (1280 bytes).
When mtu is changed and new value is greater than IPV6_MIN_MTU,
it does not add ipv6 addresses and inner device bac.
This patch fixes that.
Tested with Avaid's application, which works ok now.

I'm not sure why it was doing this, and I'm not sure I _want_ to know
why. But calling it NETIF_F_DYNALLOC doesn't change the fact that the
kernel believes it to be NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM, and that IPv6 communication
is hence buggered.
