I2C_DEVNAME and i2c_clientname were introduced in 2.5.68 [1] to help

[PATCH] I2C: Kill i2c_algorithm.id (6/7)
In theory, there should be no more users of I2C_ALGO_* at this point.
However, it happens that several drivers were using I2C_ALGO_* for
adapter ids, so we need to correct these before we can get rid of all
the I2C_ALGO_* definitions.
Note that this also fixes a bug in media/video/tvaudio.c:
/* don't attach on saa7146 based cards,
because dedicated drivers are used */
if ((adap->id & I2C_ALGO_SAA7146))

This test was plain broken, as it would succeed for many more adapters
than just the saa7146: any those id would share at least one bit with
the saa7146 id. We are really lucky that the few other adapters we want
this driver to work with did not fulfill that condition.

The 24RF08 corruption would better be prevented at i2c-core level than
at chip driver level, for several reasons:
* The second quick write should happen as soon as possible after the
first one, so as to limit the risk that another command is issued on
the bus inbetween, causing the corruption.
* As a matter of fact, the protection code at driver level was reworked
at least three times already, which proves how hard it is to get it
right there, while it's straightforward at i2c-core level.
* It's easy to add a new driver that would need the protection, and
forget to add it. This did happen already.
* As additional probing addresses can be passed to most i2c chip drivers
as module parameters, virtually every i2c chip driver would need the
protection if we want to be really safe.
* Why duplicate code when we can easily avoid it?

[PATCH] I2C: Rewrite i2c_probe
i2c_probe was quite complex and slow, so I rewrote it in a more
efficient and hopefully clearer way.
Note that this slightly changes the way the module parameters are
handled. This shouldn't change anything for the most common cases
though.
For one thing, the function now respects the order of the parameters
for address probing. It used to always do lower addresses first. The
new approach gives the user more control.
For another, ignore addresses don't overrule probe addresses anymore.
This could have been restored the way it was at the cost of a few more
lines of code, but I don't think it's worth it. Both lists are given
as module parameters, so a user would be quite silly to specify the
same addresses in both lists. The normal addresses list is the only
one that isn't controlled by a module parameter, thus is the only one
the user may reasonably want to remove an address from.
Another significant change is the fact that i2c_probe() will no more
stop when a detection function returns -ENODEV. Just because a driver
found a chip it doesn't support isn't a valid reason to stop all
probings for this one driver. This closes the long standing lm_sensors
ticket #1807.
In terms of algorithmic complexity, the new code is way better. If
I is the ignore address count, P the probe address count, N the
normal address count and F the force address count, the old code
was doing 128 * (F + I + P + N) iterations max, while the new code
does F + P + ((I+1) * N) iterations max. For the most common case
where F, I and P are empty, this is down from 128 * N to N.

one_syscall_stub is removed, to simplify code, because only some instructions
are saved by one_syscall_stub, no host-syscall.
Using the stub with additional data (modify_ldt via stub)
is prepared also.

[PATCH] uml: increase granularity of host capability checking
This change enables SKAS0/SKAS3 to work with all combinations of /proc/mm and
PTRACE_FAULTINFO being available or not.
Also it changes the initialization of proc_mm and ptrace_faultinfo slightly,
to ease forcing SKAS0 on a patched host. Forcing UML to run without /proc/mm
or PTRACE_FAULTINFO by cmdline parameter can be implemented with a setup
resetting the related variable.

[PATCH] uml: add host AIO support to block driver
This adds AIO support to the ubd driver.
The driver breaks a struct request into IO requests to the host, based on the
hardware segments in the request and on any COW blocks covered by the request.
The ubd IO thread is gone, since there is now an equivalent thread in the AIO
module.
There is provision for multiple outstanding requests now. Requests aren't
retired until all pieces of it have been completed. The AIO requests have a
shared count, which is decremented as IO operations come in until it reaches
0. This can be possibly moved to the request struct - haven't looked at this
yet.

[PATCH] uml: merge duplicated page table code
There is a lot of code which is duplicated between the 2 and 3 level
implementation, with the only difference that the 3-level implementation is a
bit more generalized (instead of accessing directly pte_t.pte, it uses the
appropriate access macros).
So this code is joined together.
As obvious, a "core code nice cleanup" is not a "stability-friendly patch" so
usual care applies.

[PATCH] uml: TLB operation batching
This adds VM op batching to skas0. Rather than having a context switch to and
from the userspace stub for each address space change, we write a number of
operations to the stub data page and invoke a different stub which loops over
them and executes them all in one go.
The operations are stored as [ system call number, arg1, arg2, ... ] tuples.
The set is terminated by a system call number of 0. Single operations, i.e.
page faults, are handled in the old way, since that is slightly more
efficient.
For a kernel build, a minority (~1/4) of the operations are part of a set.
These sets averaged ~100 in length, so for this quarter, the context switching
overhead is greatly reduced.

[PATCH] uml: fixes performance regression in activate_mm and thus exec()
Normally, activate_mm() is called from exec(), and thus it used to be a
no-op because we use a completely new "MM context" on the host (for
instance, a new process), and so we didn't need to flush any "TLB entries"
(which for us are the set of memory mappings for the host process from the
virtual "RAM" file).
Kernel threads, instead, are usually handled in a different way. So, when
for AIO we call use_mm(), things used to break and so Benjamin implemented
activate_mm(). However, that is only needed for AIO, and could slow down
exec() inside UML, so be smart: detect being called for AIO (via
PF_BORROWED_MM) and do the full flush only in that situation.
Comment also the caller so that people won't go breaking UML without
noticing. I also rely on the caller's locks for testing current->flags.

Apparently, GDB gets confused when we do an execvp() on ourselves.
Since it's simply done to allocate further space for command line arguments
(which we'll use to allow gathering the startup command line for guest
processes through the host), allow the user to disable that to get a
debuggable UML binary.

As a follow-up to "UML Support - Ptrace: adds the host SYSEMU support, for
UML and general usage" (i.e. uml-support-* in current mm).
Avoid unconditionally jumping to work_pending and code copying, just reuse
the already existing resume_userspace path.
One interesting note, from Charles P. Wright, suggested that the API is
improvable with no downsides for UML (except that it will have to support
yet another host API, since dropping support for the current API, for UML,
is not reasonable from users' point of view).

This is simply an adjustment for "Ptrace - i386: fix Syscall Audit interaction
with singlestep" to work on top of SYSEMU patches, too. On this patch, I have
some doubts: I wonder why we need to alter that way ptrace_disable().
I left the patch this way because it has been extensively tested, but I don't
understand the reason.
The current PTRACE_DETACH handling simply clears child->ptrace; actually this
is not enough because entry.S just looks at the thread_flags; actually,
do_syscall_trace checks current->ptrace but I don't think depending on that is
good, at least for performance, so I think the clearing is done elsewhere.
For instance, on PTRACE_CONT it's done, but doing PTRACE_DETACH without
PTRACE_CONT is possible (and happens when gdb crashes and one kills it
manually).
