2d4a34c936 [PATCH] swsusp: Support i386 systems with PAE or without PSE
Make swsusp support i386 systems with PAE or without PSE.

This is done by creating temporary page tables located in resume-safe page
frames before the suspend image is restored in the same way as x86_64 does
it.

Now that we have pci_get_bus_and_slot we can do the job correctly.  Note that
some of these calls intentionally leak a device - this is because the device

4d3eeeac97 [PATCH] avr32: fixup kprobes preemption handling
While working on SH kprobes, I noticed that avr32 got the preemption
handling wrong in the no probe case.  The idea is that upon entry of
kprobe_handler() preemption is disabled outright across the life of the
kprobe, only to be re-enabled in post_kprobe_handler().

However, in the event that the probe is never activated, there's never any
chance of hitting the post probe handler, which allows for the current
avr32 implementation to disable preemption indefinitely, as it's currently
missing a re-enable when no probe is activated.

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do

		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file

a120586873 [PATCH] Allow NULL pointers in percpu_free
The patch (as824b) makes percpu_free() ignore NULL arguments, as one would
expect for a deallocation routine.  (Note that free_percpu is #defined as
percpu_free in include/linux/percpu.h.) A few callers are updated to remove
now-unneeded tests for NULL.  A few other callers already seem to assume
that passing a NULL pointer to percpu_free() is okay!

The patch also removes an unnecessary NULL check in percpu_depopulate().

a866374aec [PATCH] mm: pagefault_{disable,enable}()
Introduce pagefault_{disable,enable}() and use these where previously we did
manual preempt increments/decrements to make the pagefault handler do the
atomic thing.

Currently they still rely on the increased preempt count, but do not rely on
the disabled preemption, this might go away in the future.

(NOTE: the extra barrier() in pagefault_disable might fix some holes on
       machines which have too many registers for their own good)

through all the arch pagefault handlers to make sure the inc_preempt_count()

the fact that faults do not take locks under increased preempt count.

39dde65c99 [PATCH] shared page table for hugetlb page
Following up with the work on shared page table done by Dave McCracken.  This
set of patch target shared page table for hugetlb memory only.

The shared page table is particular useful in the situation of large number of
independent processes sharing large shared memory segments.  In the normal
page case, the amount of memory saved from process' page table is quite
significant.  For hugetlb, the saving on page table memory is not the primary
objective (as hugetlb itself already cuts down page table overhead
significantly), instead, the purpose of using shared page table on hugetlb is
to allow faster TLB refill and smaller cache pollution upon TLB miss.

With PT sharing, pte entries are shared among hundreds of processes, the cache
consumption used by all the page table is smaller and in return, application
gets much higher cache hit ratio.  One other effect is that cache hit ratio
with hardware page walker hitting on pte in cache will be higher and this
helps to reduce tlb miss latency.  These two effects contribute to higher
application performance.

enable interrupts before entering idle.

before going to idle. But, all other idle routines have the race fixed.

446f713ba1 [PATCH] unwinder: always use unlocked module list access in unwinder fallback
We're already well protected against module unloads because module
unload uses stop_machine(). The only exception is NMIs, but other
users already risk lockless accesses here.

This avoids some hackery in lockdep and also a potential deadlock

This matches what i386 does.

f3d73707a1 [PATCH] x86-64: Mark rdtsc as sync only for netburst, not for core2
On the Core2 cpus, the rdtsc instruction is not serializing (as defined
in the architecture reference since rdtsc exists) and due to the deep
speculation of these cores, it's possible that you can observe time go
backwards between cores due to this speculation. Since the kernel
already deals with this with the SYNC_RDTSC flag, the solution is
simple, only assume that the instruction is serializing on family 15...

The price one pays for this is a slightly slower gettimeofday (by a
dozen or two cycles), but that increase is quite small to pay for a
really-going-forward tsc counter.

6167796569 [PATCH] x86-64: Synchronize RDTSC on single core AMD
There is no guarantee that two RDTSCs in a row are monotonic,
so don't assume it on single core AMD systems.
This will make gettimeofday slower again

a1a70c25be [PATCH] i386: always enable regparm
-mregparm=3 has been enabled by default for some time on i386, and AFAIK
there aren't any problems with it left.

This patch removes the REGPARM config option and sets -mregparm=3
unconditionally.
