8799ee9f49 [ARM] Set bit 4 on section mappings correctly depending on CPU
On some CPUs, bit 4 of section mappings means "update the
cache when written to".  On others, this bit is required to
be one, and others it's required to be zero.  Finally, on
ARMv6 and above, setting it turns on "no execute" and prevents
speculative prefetches.

With all these combinations, no one value fits all CPUs, so we
have to pick a value depending on the CPU type, and the area
we're mapping.

8fc5ffa063 [ARM] 3675/2: Preparing for AT91SAM926 support
Patch from Andrew Victor

This prepares the way for adding support for the new Atmel AT91SAM926x
processors.

Major changes:
- Rename time.c to at91rm9200_time.c
- Rename common.c to at91rm9200.c
- Introduce ARCH_AT91, of which ARCH_AT91RM9200, ARCH_AT91SAM9260 and
ARCH_AT91SAM9261 are dependent.

Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

This patch adds support for the Cirrus Logic EDB9302, an evaluation
board based on the Cirrus Logic EP9302 SoC, with 32M RAM, one USB host
port, audio in/out, two serial ports and a 10/100 ethernet interface.

George Kashperko submitted the original patch, this patch is a rewrite
using the newer physmap platform driver.

656602978e [ARM] 3673/1: lpd270: parse lcd= command line parameter
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

The bootloader on the LogicPD PXA270 platform informs the kernel of
which type of TFT screen is connected via an lcd=$FOO kernel command
line parameter.

Before this patch, we ignored this parameter and just hardcoded the use
of the Sharp lq64d343 display kit.  This patch implement parsing of the
command line option, and chooses the right pxafb_mach_info to use (six
choices) based on this command line option.

Also fix the fb settings to correspond with those of the bootloader.

0a6047eef1 Fix vsnprintf off-by-one bug
The recent vsnprintf() fix introduced an off-by-one, and it's now
possible to overrun the target buffer by one byte.

The "end" pointer points to past the end of the buffer, so if we
have to truncate the result, it needs to be done though "end[-1]".

[ This is just an alternate and simpler patch to one proposed by Andrew
  and Jeremy, who actually noticed the problem ]

980a01c9bf [PATCH] SPI: infrastructure to initialize spi_device.mode early
This patch adds earlier initialization of spi_device.mode, as needed
on boards using nondefault chipselect polarity.  An example would be
ones using the RS5C348 RTC without an external signal inverter between
the RTC chipselect and the SPI controller.

Without this mechanism, the first setup() call for that chip would
wrongly enable chips, corrupting transfers to/from other chips sharing
that SPI bus.

to the error code of the flush message instead of ERESTARTSYS.  The patch
sets the error code to the correct value.

33b37a33c2 [PATCH] remove active field from tty buffer structure
Remove 'active' field from tty buffer structure.  This was added in 2.6.16
as part of a patch to make the new tty buffering SMP safe.  This field is
unnecessary with the more intelligently written flush_to_ldisc that adds
receive_room handling.

Removing this field reverts to simpler logic where the tail buffer is
always the 'active' buffer, which should not be freed by flush_to_ldisc.
(active == buffer being filled with new data)

The result is simpler, smaller, and faster tty buffer code.

2c3bb20f46 [PATCH] add receive_room flow control to flush_to_ldisc
Flush data serially to line discipline in blocks no larger than
tty->receive_room to avoid losing data if line discipline is busy (such as
N_TTY operating at high speed on heavily loaded system) or does not accept
data in large blocks (such as N_MOUSE).

817d6d3bce [PATCH] remove TTY_DONT_FLIP
Remove TTY_DONT_FLIP tty flag.  This flag was introduced in 2.1.X kernels
to prevent the N_TTY line discipline functions read_chan() and
n_tty_receive_buf() from running at the same time.  2.2.15 introduced
tty->read_lock to protect access to the N_TTY read buffer, which is the
only state requiring protection between these two functions.

The current TTY_DONT_FLIP implementation is broken for SMP, and is not
universally honored by drivers that send data directly to the line
discipline receive_buf function.

Because TTY_DONT_FLIP is not necessary, is broken in implementation, and is
not universally honored, it is removed.
