4356d73d02 pcmcia: remove pccard_sysfs_interface warnings
Make the PCMCIA core stop using class_interface to hide socket attribute
registration.  This removes the associated section mismatch warnings, and
helps get to the point where that mechanism can finally be removed.

Simplify that attribute registration by using an attribute_group.
This is a net shrink in object size.

36a9135865 ACPI: Fix acpi_processor_idle and idle= boot parameters interaction
acpi_processor_idle and "idle=" boot parameter interaction is broken.
The problem is that, at boot time acpi driver is checking for "idle=" boot
option and not registering the acpi idle handler. But, when there is a CST
changed callback (typically when switching AC <-> battery or suspend-resume)
there are no checks for boot_option_idle_override and acpi idle handler tries
to get installed with nasty side effects.

With CPU_IDLE configured this issue causes results in a nasty oops on CST
change callback and without CPU_IDLE there is no oops, but boot option
of "idle=" gets ignored and acpi idle handler gets installed.

Change the behavior to not do anything in acpi idle handler when there is a
"idle=" boot option.

Note that the problem is only there when "idle=" boot option is used.

with the following config:

 http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Wed_Apr_30_10_21_40_CEST_2008.bad

the problem is caused by the drivers/media/common/tuners/ subdirectory
not being part of the kbuild hierarchy anymore, due to commit
7c91f0624 ("V4L/DVB(7767): Move tuners to common/tuners").

this seems similar to the problem also reported by Mike Galbraith.

d7853d1f89 brd: modify ramdisk device to be able to manage partitions
This patch adds partition management for Block RAM Device (BRD).

This patch is done to keep in sync BRD and loop device drivers.

This patch adds a parameter to the module, max_part, to specify
the maximum number of partitions per RAM device.

Example:

fc3ba692a4 mm: Add NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter
Fuse will use temporary buffers to write back dirty data from memory mappings
(normal writes are done synchronously).  This is needed, because there cannot
be any guarantee about the time in which a write will complete.

By using temporary buffers, from the MM's point if view the page is written
back immediately.  If the writeout was due to memory pressure, this
effectively migrates data from a full zone to a less full zone.

This patch adds a new counter (NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP) for the number of pages used
as temporary buffers.

f34d7a5b70 tty: The big operations rework
- Operations are now a shared const function block as with most other Linux
  objects

- Introduce wrappers for some optional functions to get consistent behaviour

- Wrap put_char which used to be patched by the tty layer

- Document which functions are needed/optional

- Make put_char report success/fail

- Cache the driver->ops pointer in the tty as tty->ops

- Remove various surplus lock calls we no longer need

- Remove proc_write method as noted by Alexey Dobriyan

- Introduce some missing sanity checks where certain driver/ldisc
  combinations would oops as they didn't check needed methods were present
