[PATCH] system_state splitup
Split the system_state state `SYSTEM_SHUTDOWN' into SYSTEM_HALT,
SYSTEM_POWER_OFF and SYSTEM_RESTART and export system_state to modules.
This allows driver shutdown routines to know why they are being shutdown. The
IDE subsystem wants this so that it knows to not spin the disks down across a
reboot.
This allows building the math-emu code as a module only when
CONFIG_SMP is not set. The fp trap handler cannot be preempted
on a single-CPU (as CONFIG_PREEMPT is not going to be supported
on alpha), so the module can be safely unloaded at any time.

[PATCH] Fix reiserfs inode size update race
reiserfs_file_write unlocks the pages it operated on before updating
i_size. This can lead to races with writepage, who checks i_size when
deciding how much of the file to zero out.
This patch also replaces SetPageReferenced with mark_page_accessed() in
reiserfs_file_write
This was verified to fix the BitKeeper data corruption problems that
Steven Cole has been debugging, where concurrent writes to a file and
writebacks to disk would cause zeroes in the file when CONFIG_PREEMPT
was enabled.

- introduce IDE_ARCH_OBSOLETE_INIT and ide_default_io_ctl() so
we can use generic ide_init_hwif_ports() and kill no longer needed

[PATCH] ppc64: fix rtas error log location
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@austin.ibm.com>
Somehow we've been placing the rtas error_log file at /proc/ppc64/error_log,
which breaks at least one application I know of. It is supposed to be at
/proc/ppc64/rtas/error_log (this is the 2.4 behavior).
On machines with Altivec (i.e. G4 and G5 processors), the altivec
floating-point instructions can operate in two modes: one where
denormalized inputs or outputs are truncated to zero, and one where they
aren't. In the latter mode the processor can take an exception when it
encounters denormalized floating-point inputs or outputs rather than
dealing with them in hardware.
This patch adds code to deal properly with the exception, by emulating the
instruction that caused the exception. Previously the kernel just switched
the altivec unit into the truncate-to-zero mode, which works but is a bit
gross. Fortunately there are only a limited set of altivec instructions
which can generate the assist exception, so we don't have to emulate the
whole altivec instruction set.
This patch also makes sure that we always have a handler for the altivec
unavailable exception. Without this, if you run a kernel that is not
configured for altivec support on a machine with altivec, it works fine
until a user process tries to execute an altivec instruction. At that
point the kernel thinks it has taken an unknown exception and panics. With
this patch it sends a SIGILL to the process instead.

[PATCH] USB: RNDIS (and CDC) filter flag handling
This should fix the problem David Meggy found, where RNDIS was setting
the OID_GEN_CURRENT_PACKET_FILTER state incorrectly. It's the same
issue Andrew Morton noticed a while back, for that matter, but with
more than just a "now compiles on 64 bit" fix.
Basically the code needs to interpret 32 bits provided in the request
from the (Windows) host, rather than 8 bits of other memory that's got
some irrelevant value.
The fix is just to save the 32 bits. I did the same thing with the
CDC Ethernet filter, which should eventually be used the same way: to
limit what packets get sent to the host. Also defined a couple more
of the CDC requests.

method for translating ATA<->SCSI, since it being done quite often

two here:
* Mirror that ATA 'removeable media' bit into INQUIRY output.
* Change behavior of INQUIRY output field 'product revision' from
the libata software version number to the first 4 bytes of the
ATA device's firmware revision number.
Rather than cache the firmware revision in struct ata_device, as was/is
done with two other strings, I took the opportunity to eliminate the
caching of the two other strings, 'vendor' and 'product'. These strings
are now retrieved as needed from the IDENTIFY [PACKET] DEVICE info page,
since we cache its entire contents.
Retrieving a string from the identify-device page is done via the
helper function ata_dev_id_string(), which is now exported.
This patch winds up making struct ata_device 40 bytes smaller, and
the libata core gets a bit smaller as well.
