[TG3]: Add tagged status support.
When supported, use the TAGGED interrupt processing support
the chip provides. In this mode, instead of a "on/off" binary
semaphore, an incrementing tag scheme is used to ACK interrupts.
All MSI supporting chips support TAGGED mode, so the tg3_msi()
interrupt handler uses it unconditionally. This invariant is
verified when MSI support is tested.
Since we can invoke tg3_poll() multiple times per interrupt under
high packet load, we fetch a new copy of the tag value in the
status block right before we actually do the work.
Also, because the tagged status tells the chip exactly which
work we have processed, we can make two optimizations:
1) tg3_restart_ints() need not check tg3_has_work()
2) the tg3_timer() need not poke the chip 10 times per
second to keep from losing interrupt events

[PATCH] Avoid console spam with ext3 aborted journal.
Avoid console spam with ext3 aborted journal.
ext3 usually reports error conditions that it detects in its environment.
But when its journal gets aborted due to such errors, it can sometimes
continue to report that condition forever, spamming the console to such
an extent that the initial first cause of the journal abort can be lost.
When the journal aborts, we put the filesystem into readonly mode. Most
subsequent filesystem operations will get rejected immediately by checks
for MS_RDONLY either in the filesystem or in the VFS. But some paths do
not have such checks --- for example, if we continue to write to a file
handle that was opened before the fs went readonly. (We only check for
the ROFS condition when the file is first opened.) In these cases, we
can continue to generate log errors similar to
EXT3-fs error (device $DEV) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
for each subsequent write.
There is really no point in generating these errors after the initial
error has been fully reported. Specifically, if we're starting a
completely new filesystem operation, and the filesystem is *already*
readonly (ie. the ext3 layer has already detected and handled the
underlying jbd abort), and we see an EROFS error, then there is simply
no point in reporting it again.

[PATCH] Fix filp being passed through raw ioctl handler
Don't pass meaningless file handles to block device ioctls.
The recent raw IO ioctl-passthrough fix started passing the raw file
handle into the block device ioctl handler. That's unlikely to be
useful, as the file handle is actually open on a character-mode raw
device, not a block device, so dereferencing it is not going to yield
useful results to a block device ioctl handler.
Previously we just passed NULL; also not a value that can usefully
be dereferenced, but at least if it does happen, we'll oops instead of
silently pretending that the file is a block device, so NULL is the more
defensive option here. This patch reverts to that behaviour.

[PATCH] CPCI: update
I have finally done some work to update the CompactPCI hotplug driver to
fix some of the outstanding issues in 2.6:
- Added adapter and latch status ops so that those files will get created
by the current PCI hotplug core. This used to not be required, but
seems to be now after some of the sysfs rework in the core.
- Replaced slot list spinlock with a r/w semaphore to avoid any potential
issues with sleeping. This quiets all of the runtime warnings.
- Reworked interrupt driven hot extraction handling to remove need for a
polling operator for ENUM# status. There are a lot of boards that only
have an interrupt driven by ENUM#, so this lowers the bar to entry.
- Replaced pci_visit_dev usage with better use of the PCI core functions.
The new code is functionally equivalent to the previous code, but the
use of pci_enable_device on insert needs to be investigated further, as
I need to do some more testing to see if it is still necessary.

(typically, the no policy loaded state is only for bootstrapping to the

[PATCH] do_swap_page() can map random data if swap read fails
There is a bug in do_swap_page(): when swap page happens to be unreadable,
page filled with random data is mapped into user address space. The fix is
to check for PageUptodate and send SIGBUS in case of error.
If block_read_full_page() detects an error when running get_block() it will
run SetPageError(), then it will zero out the block in pagecache and will mark
the buffer_head uptodate.
So at the end of readahead we end up with a non-uptodate pagecache page which
is marked PageError. But it has uptodate buffers.
The pagefault code will run ClearPageError, will launch readpage a second time
and block_read_full_page() will notice the uptodate buffers and will mark the
page uptodate as well. We end up with an uptodate, !PageError page full of
zeros and the error is lost.
(It seems a little odd that filemap_nopage() runs ClearPageError(). I guess
all of this adds up to meaning that for each attempted access to the page, the
pagefault handler will retry the I/O. Which is good and bad. If the app is
ignoring SIGBUS for some reason we could get a lot of back-to-back I/O
errors.)
Fix it by not marking the pagecache buffer_head as uptodate if the attempt to
map that buffer to a disk block failed.
