2939b0469d tracing: replace TP<var> with TP_<var>
Impact: clean up

The macros TPPROTO, TPARGS, TPFMT, TPRAWFMT, and TPCMD all look a bit
ugly. This patch adds an underscore to their names.

5e1607a00b tracing: rename ftrace_printk() => trace_printk()

fe7ca2e1e8 IPv6: add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko
Add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko by specifying
"disable=1" on module load.  We just do the minimum of initializing
inetsw6[] so calls from other modules to inet6_register_protosw()
won't OOPs, then bail out.  No IPv6 addresses or sockets can be
created as a result, and a reboot is required to enable IPv6.

0af80c04e2 ide: ide.c 'clear' fix, update "ide=nodma" documentation
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
- ide=nodma is no longer valid.

drivers/ide/Kconfig
- The module is ide-core.ko not ide.

drivers/ide/ide.c
- It took me a while to figure out what the arguments %d.%d:%d to nodma
  module parameter ment, so I added a comment to each.
- Added a comment to each of the sscanf lines.
- There is a bug, if j is 0 it would previously clear all the other bits
  except the current device, changed in three different places.
  mask &= (1 << i) should be mask &= ~(1 << i).

f7f84f38cd docbook: split kernel-api for device-drivers
The kernel-api docbook was much larger than any of the others,
so processing it took longer and needed some docbook extras in
some cases, so split it into kernel-api (infrastructure etc.)
and device drivers/device subsystems.  This allows these docbooks
to be generated in parallel.  (This reduced the docbook processing
time on my 4-proc system with make -j4 from about 5min:16sec to
about 2min:01sec.)

The chapters that were moved from kernel-api to device-drivers are:

Driver Basics
Device drivers infrastructure
Parallel Port Devices
Message-based devices
Sound Devices
16x50 UART Driver
Frame Buffer Library
Input Subsystem
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
I2C and SMBus Subsystem

3fd076dd95 cpuset: various documentation fixes and updates
I noticed the old commit 8f5aa26c75
("cpusets: update_cpumask documentation fix") is not a complete fix,
resulting in inconsistent paragraphs.  This patch fixes it and does other
fixes and updates:

- s/migrate_all_tasks()/migrate_live_tasks()/
- describe more cpuset control files
- s/cpumask_t/struct cpumask/
- document cpu hotplug and change of 'sched_relax_domain_level' may cause
  domain rebuild
- document various ways to query and modify cpusets
- the equivalent of "mount -t cpuset" is "mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,noprefix"
