e311334ee6 [ALSA] Fixes audiophile usb analog capture with the new device_setup parameter
Modules: Documentation,USB generic driver

The patch adds the 'device_setup' module parameter and a specific
quirk to correctly initialize the audiophile usb device: this fixes
the distorted sound bug on the Analog capture port. Backward
compatibility is achieved by simply omitting the new parameter.

ba3a5a81f7 V4L/DVB (3504): Medion 7134: Autodetect second bridge chip
The device, Medion 7134, has two saa7134 chips on it, but only one of them
is functional in the current saa7134 driver.
This patch adds autodetection for the second, unsupported saa7134 chip,
as SAA7134_BOARD_MD7134_BRIDGE_2, and displays a message to the user
(in dmesg) indicating that the second chip isn't yet functional.
This is useful for users, since two instances of the saa7134 driver
will spawn. This patch will prevent confusion by warning the user that
only one of the chips on the board are functional.
There are other versions of the SAA7134_BOARD_MD7134 with only a single
saa7134 bridge/decoder -- those devices will not be affected by this patch.
Only devices containing the second chip will display the warning.

15d99e02ba [TCP]: sysctl to allow TCP window > 32767 sans wscale
Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit
window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated.  Some
ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of
the TCP header and would get confused.

Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default
now.

There is a sysctl added so that we can still interact with such old
stacks

f9262c12c0 [PATCH] i386: port ATI timer fix from x86_64 to i386 II
ATI chipsets tend to generate double timer interrupts for the local APIC
timer when both the 8254 and the IO-APIC timer pins are enabled.  This is
because they route it to both and the result is anded together and the CPU
ends up processing it twice.

This patch changes check_timer to disable the 8254 routing for interrupt 0.

I think it would be safe on all chipsets actually (i tested it on a couple
and it worked everywhere) and Windows seems to do it in a similar way, but
to be conservative this patch only enables this mode on ATI (and adds
options to enable/disable too)

Ported over from a similar x86-64 change.

I reused the ACPI earlyquirk infrastructure for the ATI bridge check, but
tweaked it a bit to work even without ACPI.

Inspired by a patch from Chuck Ebbert, but redone.

21a1ea9eb4 [PATCH] rcu batch tuning
This patch adds new tunables for RCU queue and finished batches.  There are
two types of controls - number of completed RCU updates invoked in a batch
(blimit) and monitoring for high rate of incoming RCUs on a cpu (qhimark,
qlowmark).

By default, the per-cpu batch limit is set to a small value.  If the input
RCU rate exceeds the high watermark, we do two things - force quiescent
state on all cpus and set the batch limit of the CPU to INTMAX.  Setting
batch limit to INTMAX forces all finished RCUs to be processed in one shot.
 If we have more than INTMAX RCUs queued up, then we have bigger problems
anyway.  Once the incoming queued RCUs fall below the low watermark, the
batch limit is set to the default.

4f1933620f kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior
The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
even if nothing has changed.  This patch ensures kbuild works with both
the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.

For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html

Changes in this patch:
  - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
  - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
  - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
    targets are up-to-date or not.

ab9b32ee62 [PATCH] x86_64: Better ATI timer fix
The previous experiment for using apicmaintimer on ATI systems didn't
work out very well.  In particular laptops with C2/C3 support often
don't let it tick during idle, which makes it useless.  There were also
some other bugs that made the apicmaintimer often not used at all.

I tried some other experiments - running timer over RTC and some other
things but they didn't really work well neither.

I rechecked the specs now and it turns out this simple change is
actually enough to avoid the double ticks on the ATI systems.  We just
turn off IRQ 0 in the 8254 and only route it directly using the IO-APIC.

I tested it on a few ATI systems and it worked there.  In fact it worked
on all chipsets (NVidia, Intel, AMD, ATI) I tried it on.

According to the ACPI spec routing should always work through the
IO-APIC so I think it's the correct thing to do anyways (and most of the
old gunk in check_timer should be thrown away for x86-64).

But for 2.6.16 it's best to do a fairly minimal change:
 - Use the known to be working everywhere-but-ATI IRQ0 both over 8254
   and IO-APIC setup everywhere
 - Except on ATI disable IRQ0 in the 8254
 - Remove the code to select apicmaintimer on ATI chipsets
 - Add some boot options to allow to override this (just paranoia)

In 2.6.17 I hope to switch the default over to this for everybody.

fa675765af Revert mount/umount uevent removal
This change reverts the 033b96fd30 commit
from Kay Sievers that removed the mount/umount uevents from the kernel.
Some older versions of HAL still depend on these events to detect when a
new device has been mounted.  These events are not correctly emitted,
and are broken by design, and so, should not be relied upon by any
future program.  Instead, the /proc/mounts file should be polled to
properly detect this kind of event.

A feature-removal-schedule.txt entry has been added, noting when this
interface will be removed from the kernel.

b00dc3ad74 [PATCH] tmpfs: fix mount mpol nodelist parsing
I've been dissatisfied with the mpol_nodelist mount option which was
added to tmpfs earlier in -rc.  Replace it by mpol=policy:nodelist.

And it was broken: a nodelist is a comma-separated list of numbers and
ranges; the mount options are a comma-separated list of token=values.
Whoops, blindly strsep'ing on commas doesn't work so well: since we've
no numeric tokens, and unlikely to add them, use that to distinguish.

Move the mpol= parsing to shmem_parse_mpol under CONFIG_NUMA, reject
all its options as invalid if not NUMA.  /proc shows MPOL_PREFERRED
as "prefer", so use that name for the policy instead of "preferred".

Enforce that mpol=default has no nodelist; that mpol=prefer has one
node only; that mpol=bind has a nodelist; but let mpol=interleave use
node_online_map if no nodelist given.  Describe this in tmpfs.txt.

c255d844dd [PATCH] suspend-to-ram: allow video options to be set at runtime
Currently, acpi video options can only be set on kernel command line.  That's
little inflexible; I'd like userland s2ram application that just works, and
modifying kernel command line according to whitelist is not fun.  It is better
to just allow s2ram application to set video options just before suspend
(according to the whitelist).

This implements sysctl to allow setting suspend video options without reboot.

(akpm: Documentation updates for this new sysctl are pending..)

255acee706 were applied which wasn't properly
resolved. Fix this and add some additional description.

18a43ba26d kbuild: remove checkconfig.pl
checkconfig.pl is no longer needed now that autoconf.h is automatically
included.  Remove it and all references to it.

20a468b513 kbuild: make cc-version available in kbuild files
Move $(CC) support functions to Kbuild.include so they are available
in the kbuild files.
In addition the following was done:
	o as-option documented in Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt
	o Moved documentation to new section to match
	  new scope of functions
	o added cc-ifversion used to conditionally select a text string
	  dependent on actual $(CC) version
	o documented cc-ifversion
	o change so Kbuild.include is read before the kbuild file

040fcc819a kbuild: improved modversioning support for external modules
With following patch a second option is enabled to obtain
symbol information from a second external module when a
external module is build.
The recommended approach is to use a common kbuild file but
that may be impractical in certain cases.
With this patch one can copy over a Module.symvers from one
external module to make symbols (and symbol versions) available
for another external module.

Updated documentation in Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt

06300b21f4 kbuild: support building individual files for external modules
Support building individual files when dealing with separate modules.
So say you have a module named "foo" which consist of two .o files bar.o
and fun.o.

You can then do:
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.o
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.lst
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.i
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` /            <= will build all .o files
                                           and link foo.o
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` foo.ko       <= will build the module
                                           and do the modpost step
					   to create foo.ko

The above will also work if the external module is placed in a
subdirectory using a hirachy of kbuild files.
Thanks to Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de> for initial feature
request / bug report.
