7a1e335085 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix pte_update for 64-bit PTEs
While the existing pte_update code handled atomically modifying a 64-bit PTE,
it did not return all 64-bits of the PTE before it was modified.  This causes
problems in some places that expect the full PTE to be returned, like
ptep_get_and_clear().

Created a new pte_update function that is conditional on CONFIG_PTE_64BIT.  It
atomically reads the low PTE word which all PTE flags are required to be in
and returns a premodified full 64-bit PTE.

Since we now have an explicit 64-bit PTE version of pte_update we can also
remove the hack that existed to get the low PTE word regardless of size.

0c541b4406 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix AGP and sleep again
My previous patch that added sleep support for uninorth-agp and some AGP
"off" stuff in radeonfb and aty128fb is breaking some configs.  More
specifically, it has problems with rage128 setups since the DRI code for
these in X doesn't properly re-enable AGP on wakeup or console switch
(unlike the radeon DRM).

This patch fixes the problem for pmac once for all by using a different
approach.  The AGP driver "registers" special suspend/resume callbacks with
some arch code that the fbdev's can later on call to suspend and resume
AGP, making sure it's resumed back in the same state it was when suspended.
 This is platform specific for now.  It would be too complicated to try to
do a generic implementation of this at this point due to all sort of weird
things going on with AGP on other architectures.  We'll re-work that whole
problem cleanly once we finally merge fbdev's and DRI.

In the meantime, please apply this patch which brings back some r128 based
laptops into working condition as far as system sleep is concerned.

7a648b9ec0 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix cpufreq problems
This patch updates the PowerMac cpufreq driver.  It depends on the addition
of the suspend() method (my previous patch) and on the new flag I defined
to silence some warnings that are normal for us.

It fixes various issues related to cpufreq on pmac, including some crashes
on some models when sleeping the machine while in low speed, proper voltage
control on some newer machines, and adds voltage control on 750FX based G3
laptops.

6c26e03b2d [PATCH] ppc32: fix single-stepping of emulated instructions
On ppc, we emulate instructions that cause alignment exceptions.  If we are
single-stepping an instruction and it causes an alignment exception, we
will currently do the next instruction as well before taking the
single-step exception.  This patch fixes that, so we take the single-step
exception after emulating the instruction.

e378cc16b0 [PATCH] ppc32: oops on kernel altivec assist exceptions
If we should happen to get an altivec assist exception while executing in
the kernel, we will currently try to handle it and fail, and end up oopsing
with (apparently) a segfault.  (An altivec assist exception occurs for
floating-point altivec instructions with denormalized inputs or outputs if
the altivec unit is in java mode.)

This patch checks explicitly if we are in user mode and prints a useful
message if not.

6460b4cceb [PATCH] ppc32: improve timebase sync for SMP
Currently the procedure in the ppc32 kernel that synchronizes the timebase
registers across an SMP powermac system does so by setting both timebases
to zero.  That is OK at boot but causes problems if done later.  So that we
can do hotplug CPU on these machines, this patch changes the code so it
reads the timebase from one CPU and transfers the value to the other CPU. 
(Hotplug CPU is needed for sleep (aka suspend to RAM) to work.)

35b535d9cc [PATCH] ppc32: ppc4xx_pic - add acknowledge when enabling level-sensitive IRQ
This patch adds interrupt acknowledge to the PPC4xx PIC enable_irq
implementation for level-sensitive IRQ sources.  This helps in cases when
enable/disable_irq is used in interrupt handlers for hardware, which
requires IRQ acknowledge to be issued from non-interrupt context (e.g. 
when actual ACK in device needs an I2C transaction).  For such strange
hardware, interrupt handler disables IRQ and defers actual ACK to some
other context.  When this happens, IRQ is enabled again.  For
level-sensitive sources we get spurious triggering right after IRQ is
enabled.  This patch fixes this.

Suggested by Tolunay Orkun <listmember@orkun.us>.

This patch adds SELinux support for the KOBJECT_UEVENT Netlink family, so
that SELinux can apply finer grained controls to it.  For example, security

class.

Note that some new permission definitions are added to sync with changes in
the core userspace policy package, which auto-generates header files.

			return NULL;
		goto no_cached_page;

But we forget to do so when the page in the cache is not uptodate.  The
following could result in a blocking call:

	/*
	 * Ok, found a page in the page cache, now we need to check
	 * that it's up-to-date.
	 */
	if (!PageUptodate(page))
