Takashi Iwai b4e818768d ALSA: hda - Fix mute-LED sync on HP laptops with IDT92HD83xxx codecs
The mute-LED isn't synchronized with the actual mute state on some
HP laptops with IDT 92HD83xxx codecs.  A similar hack using
check_power_status callback is added for this codec, too.

Jaroslav Kysela d355c82a01 ALSA: rename "PC Speaker" and "PC Beep" controls to "Beep"
To avoid confusion in control names for the standard analog PC Beep generator
using a small Internal PC Speaker, rename all related "PC Speaker" and "PC
Beep" controls to "Beep" only. This name is more universal and can be also
used on more platforms without confusion.

Introduce also "Internal Speaker" in ControlNames.txt for systems with
full-featured build-in internal speaker.

Stas Sergeev bcc2c6b7cb ALSA: snd-pcsp: add nopcm mode
Currently, if the high-res timers are unavailable, snd-pcsp does not
initialize. People who choose it over pcspkr, loose their console beeps
in that case and get annoyed.
With this patch, the console beeps remain regardless of the high-res
timers. Additionally, the "nopcm" modparam is added to forcibly
disable the PCM capabilities of the driver.

Takashi Iwai 54930531a0 ALSA: hda - Fix mute sound with STAC9227/9228 codecs
On FSC laptops, the sound gets muted gradually when the volume is chnaged.
This is due to the wrong volume-knob widget setup.  The delta bit (bit 7)
shouldn't be set for these devices.

This patch adds a new quirk to set the value 0x7f to the widget 0x24
instead of 0xff.

Jean Delvare 2d2a7cff1b ltc4215/ltc4245: Discard obsolete detect methods
There is no point in implementing a detect callback for the LTC4215
and LTC4245, as these devices can't be detected. It was there solely
to handle "force" module parameters to instantiate devices, but now
we have a better sysfs interface that can do the same.

So we can get rid of the ugly module parameters and the detect
callbacks. This shrinks the binary module sizes by 36% and 46%,
respectively.

The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a
number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be
allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock
introduced a CPU contention problem.  

By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace
tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event
filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4
tracepoints, etc.

Neil Horman a293980c2e exec: let do_coredump() limit the number of concurrent dumps to pipes
Introduce core pipe limiting sysctl.

Since we can dump cores to pipe, rather than directly to the filesystem,
we create a condition in which a user can create a very high load on the
system simply by running bad applications.

If the pipe reader specified in core_pattern is poorly written, we can
have lots of ourstandig resources and processes in the system.

This sysctl introduces an ability to limit that resource consumption.
core_pipe_limit defines how many in-flight dumps may be run in parallel,
dumps beyond this value are skipped and a note is made in the kernel log.
A special value of 0 in core_pipe_limit denotes unlimited core dumps may
be handled (this is the default value).

Balbir Singh a6df63615b memory controller: soft limit documentation
Soft limits is a new feature for the memory resource controller, something
similar has existed in the group scheduler in the form of shares.  The CPU
controllers interpretation of shares is very different though.

Soft limits are the most useful feature to have for environments where the
administrator wants to overcommit the system, such that only on memory
contention do the limits become active.  The current soft limits
implementation provides a soft_limit_in_bytes interface for the memory
controller and not for memory+swap controller.  The implementation
maintains an RB-Tree of groups that exceed their soft limit and starts
reclaiming from the group that exceeds this limit by the maximum amount.

This patch:

Add documentation for soft limits

Balbir Singh 4b3bde4c98 memcg: remove the overhead associated with the root cgroup
Change the memory cgroup to remove the overhead associated with accounting
all pages in the root cgroup.  As a side-effect, we can no longer set a
memory hard limit in the root cgroup.

A new flag to track whether the page has been accounted or not has been
added as well.  Flags are now set atomically for page_cgroup,
pcg_default_flags is now obsolete and removed.

Ben Blum be367d0992 cgroups: let ss->can_attach and ss->attach do whole threadgroups at a time
Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with
a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc.  (This is a
pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.)

Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem
about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader.  No subsystem currently
needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were
to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit
would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right
information.

Paul Menage c6d57f3312 cgroups: support named cgroups hierarchies
To simplify referring to cgroup hierarchies in mount statements, and to
allow disambiguation in the presence of empty hierarchies and
multiply-bindable subsystems this patch adds support for naming a new
cgroup hierarchy via the "name=" mount option

A pre-existing hierarchy may be specified by either name or by subsystems;
a hierarchy's name cannot be changed by a remount operation.

Example usage:

# To create a hierarchy called "foo" containing the "cpu" subsystem
mount -t cgroup -oname=foo,cpu cgroup /mnt/cgroup1

# To mount the "foo" hierarchy on a second location
mount -t cgroup -oname=foo cgroup /mnt/cgroup2

Wu Fengguang 0b4b2ad530 page-types: add feature for walking process address space
Introduce "-p|--pid <pid>" for walking the process address space.  The
default action is to walk raw memory PFNs.

Both the virtual address and physical address of each present pages will
be listed:

	# ./tools/vm/page-types -lp $$ | head -3
	voffset offset  len     flags
	400     11bebe  1       __RU_lA____M______________________
	402     11bebc  1       __RU_lA____M______________________

Note that voffset/offset/len are now showed as hex numbers.

documentation in Documentation/sysctl/fs.txt and
Documentation/filesystem/proc.txt, but stale file-nr definition
remained.

This patch adds back the right fs-nr definition for 2.6 kernel.
