125a00d74e powerpc/83xx: Add power management support for MPC837x boards
This patch adds pmc nodes to the device tree files so that the boards
will able to use standby capability of MPC837x processors. The MPC837x
PMC controllers are compatible with MPC8349 ones (i.e. no deep sleep).

sleep = <> properties are used to specify SCCR masks as described
in "Specifying Device Power Management Information (sleep property)"
chapter in Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt.

Since I2C1 and eSDHC controllers share the same clock source, they
are now placed under sleep-nexus nodes.

A processor is able to wakeup the boards on LAN events (Wake-On-Lan),
console events (with no_console_suspend kernel command line), GPIO
events and external IRQs (IRQ1 and IRQ2).

The processor can also wakeup the boards by the fourth general purpose
timer in GTM1 block, but the GTM wakeup support isn't yet implemented
(it's tested to work, but it's unclear how can we use the quite short
GTM timers, and how do we want to expose the GTM to userspace).

757c74d298 powerpc/mm: Introduce early_init_mmu() on 64-bit
This moves some MMU related init code out of setup_64.c into hash_utils_64.c
and calls it early_init_mmu() and early_init_mmu_secondary(). This will

71087002cf powerpc/mm: Merge various PTE bits and accessors definitions
Now that they are almost identical, we can merge some of the definitions
related to the PTE format into common files.

This creates a new pte-common.h which is included by both 32 and 64-bit
right after the CPU specific pte-*.h file, and which defines some
bits to "default" values if they haven't been defined already, and
then provides a generic definition of most of the bit combinations
based on these and exposed to the rest of the kernel.

I also moved to the common pgtable.h most of the "small" accessors to the
PTE bits and modification helpers (pte_mk*). The actual accessors remain
in their separate files.

8d1cf34e7a powerpc/mm: Tweak PTE bit combination definitions
This patch tweaks the way some PTE bit combinations are defined, in such a
way that the 32 and 64-bit variant become almost identical and that will
make it easier to bring in a new common pte-* file for the new variant
of the Book3-E support.

The combination of bits defining access to kernel pages are now clearly
separated from the combination used by userspace and the core VM. The
resulting generated code should remain identical unless I made a mistake.

Note: While at it, I removed a non-sensical statement related to CONFIG_KGDB
in ppc_mmu_32.c which could cause kernel mappings to be user accessible when
that option is enabled. Probably something that bitrot.

Due to the bug, the hardware-implemented LRU algorythm always goes to way

d746286c1f powerpc: setup default archdata for {of_}platform via bus_register_notifier
Since a number of powerpc chips are SoCs we end up having dma-able
devices that are registered as platform or of_platform devices.  We need
to hook the archdata to setup proper dma_ops for these devices.

Rather than having to add a bus_notify to each platform we add a default
one at the highest priority (called first) to set the default dma_ops for
of_platform and platform devices to dma_direct_ops.  This allows platform
code to override the ops by providing their own notifier call back.

In the future to enable >4G DMA support on ppc32 we can hook swiotlb ops.

With a sufficiently new compiler and binutils, code which wasn't
previously generating .eh_frame sections has begun to.  Certain
architectures (powerpc, in this case) may generate unexpected relocation
formats in response to this, preventing modules from loading.

While the new relocation types should probably be handled, revert to the
previous behaviour with regards to generation of .eh_frame sections.

53da1d9456 fix ptrace slowness
This patch fixes bug #12208:

  Bug-Entry       : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12208
  Subject         : uml is very slow on 2.6.28 host

This turned out to be not a scheduler regression, but an already
existing problem in ptrace being triggered by subtle scheduler
changes.

The problem is this:

 - task A is ptracing task B
 - task B stops on a trace event
 - task A is woken up and preempts task B
 - task A calls ptrace on task B, which does ptrace_check_attach()
 - this calls wait_task_inactive(), which sees that task B is still on the runq
 - task A goes to sleep for a jiffy
 - ...

Since UML does lots of the above sequences, those jiffies quickly add
up to make it slow as hell.

This patch solves this by not rescheduling in read_unlock() after
ptrace_stop() has woken up the tracer.

Thanks to Oleg Nesterov and Ingo Molnar for the feedback.

This patch fixes the issue by removing offending (and somewhat
duplicate) code from init_phy() routine, and changes _probe()
function to use uec_mdio_bus_name().

Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine,
we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in
ucc_geth_info structure.

I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only
way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been
tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions
expected.

e3162d381f dm9000: locking bugfix
This fixes a locking bug in the dm9000 driver.  It calls
request_irq() without setting IRQF_DISABLED ... which is
correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that
behavior is not guaranteed for shared IRQs.  However, its
IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked.
So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the
IRQ handler.

NOTE:  this is a classic example of the type of bug which
lockdep currently masks by forcibly setting IRQF_DISABLED
on IRQ handlers that did not request that flag.

2aac0cf886 eCryptfs: NULL crypt_stat dereference during lookup

was possible during lookup.

This patch moves the crypt_stat assignment into

finding this bug.

8faece5f90 eCryptfs: Allocate a variable number of pages for file headers
When allocating the memory used to store the eCryptfs header contents, a
single, zeroed page was being allocated with get_zeroed_page().
However, the size of an eCryptfs header is either PAGE_CACHE_SIZE or
ECRYPTFS_MINIMUM_HEADER_EXTENT_SIZE (8192), whichever is larger, and is
stored in the file's private_data->crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front
field.

ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents() was using
num_header_bytes_at_front to decide how many bytes should be written to
the lower filesystem for the file header.  Unfortunately, at least 8K
was being written from the page, despite the chance of the single,
zeroed page being smaller than 8K.  This resulted in random areas of
kernel memory being written between the 0x1000 and 0x1FFF bytes offsets
in the eCryptfs file headers if PAGE_SIZE was 4K.

This patch allocates a variable number of pages, calculated with
num_header_bytes_at_front, and passes the number of allocated pages
along to ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents().

Thanks to Florian Streibelt for reporting the data leak and working with
me to find the problem.  2.6.28 is the only kernel release with this
vulnerability.  Corresponds to CVE-2009-0787

18a0d89e54 radeonfb: Whack the PCI PM register until it sticks
This fixes a regression introduced when we switched to using the core
pci_set_power_state().  The chip seems to need the state to be written
over and over again until it sticks, so we do that.

Note that the code is a bit blunt, without timeout, etc...  but that's
pretty much because I put back in there the code exactly as it used to
be before the regression.  I still add a call to pci_set_power_state()
at the end so that ACPI gets called appropriately on x86.

f3f9258678 nl80211: Check that function pointer != NULL before using it
NL80211_CMD_GET_MESH_PARAMS and NL80211_CMD_SET_MESH_PARAMS handlers
did not verify whether a function pointer is NULL (not supported by
the driver) before trying to call the function. The former nl80211
command is available for unprivileged users, too, so this can
potentially allow normal users to kill networking (or worse..) if
mac80211 is built without CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=y.
