[PATCH] preemptible kernel documentation, etc

Linus,

The attached patch adds a Documentation/preempt-locking.txt file which
describes the new locking rules wrt preemptive kernels (ie, watch
per-CPU data, etc).  It also updates a CREDITS entry and adds some

[PATCH] fix serial close hang

2.4/2.5 kernels suffer from an infinitely long hang when a serial tty device
is closed, and there are characters waiting to be sent.  The hang occurs in
tty_wait_until_sent.

There is a timeout 'closing_wait' which defines how long to wait for the TX
buffers to empty; the problem is that the serial layer totally ignores it.
It is stored in two structures, 'info' and 'state'.  It is initialised in
the 'state' structure, but used from the 'info' structure.

It turns out that 'hub6' was also missing.

I'm not currently clear what the expected behaviour should be when the
timeout is changed via setserial, and others have the port open - I've
opted to preserve the timeout until all users close the port.  It's

After Al Viro's recent swapfile cleanup, the swap_device member of
swap_info_struct became pretty much superfluous.  As we are minimizing
kdev_t usage anyway, I took the opportunity to remove swap_device
member, and replace the remaining usages with SWP_BLOCKDEV bit flag.

Adding SWP_BLOCKDEV in turn motivated a small cleanup of the
SWP_xxx bit flags and their usage.

Patch has been in light testing for a couple weeks, and
has been glanced at by Al.  "looks sane"
