Trevor Highland 8e3a6f16ba eCryptfs: set inode key only once per crypto operation
There is no need to keep re-setting the same key for any given eCryptfs inode.
This patch optimizes the use of the crypto API and helps performance a bit.

Tilman Schmidt ee51ef0ecb ser_gigaset: convert mutex to completion
The ser_gigaset ISDN driver was using a mutex in its close() method for
waiting for other running ldisc methods to finish.  That's what completions
are for.  Incidentally, this also avoids a spurious "BUG: lock held at task
exit time" message when the driver's userspace daemon daemonizes itself.

Only the USB aspects are handled so far; the ISDN subsystem is not notified in

David Brownell b359fbc458 spi: s3c drivers shouldn't care about spi_board_info
The two S3C SPI master drivers got merged without much review, so I just
noticed that they're doing something that the SPI core code is responsible
for, rather than any adapter driver: they try to register SPI devices.

This removes that support from those drivers so they act normally.
Interestingly, none of the current boards are affected.  So it's a net code
shrink with no loss of functionality.

Haavard Skinnemoen 8bacb21901 atmel_spi: fix dmachain oops with DEBUG enabled
In atmel_spi_next_xfer, xfer can be NULL because the next transfer may
already have been submitted to the PDC (using DMA chaining).  This can
cause an oops, since the debug message assumed it was never null.  The
fix changes how those debug messages are issued, ensuring that one is
issued each time a transfer is started instead of once per call.

Also, properly indent the "can this transfer be chained" test so it's
not hidden as if it were non-conditional code.

Silvester Erdeg 154443c72f atmel_spi: chain DMA transfers
Add support for chained transfers in the atmel_spi driver, letting the DMA
controller switch to the next buffer pair without CPU intervention.  This
reduced I/O latencies by about 2% in one bulk I/O test.  It should also help
work around several interrelated errata affecting chipselect 0 on at91rm9200
chips.

Almost all of the changes are in the reworked atmel_spi_next_xfer() function.
That's now called with the driver in one of three states:

 1. It isn't transferring anything (in which case the first transfer
    of the current message is going to be sent)
 2. It has finished transfering a non-chainable transfer (in which
    case it will go to the next transfer in the message)
 3. It has finished transfering a chained transfer (in which case the
    next transfer is already queued)

After that it will queue the next transfer if it can be chained.

Don't insert (undesirable) delays between consecutive words (DLYBCT) or when
activating chipselects (DLYBS).

Removing the between-word delays improves the performance of bulk transfers
(such as mtd_dataflash, m25p80, mmc_spi) significantly.  In one test, the
improvement was a factor of more than eight!

(The large DLYBCT value came from the legacy at91 SPI driver, and it's not
clear why it used such a huge value.)

Geert Uytterhoeven 5ceadd2a2a Atari floppy: Rename disk_type to atari_disk_type
Commit edfaa7c365

    Driver core: convert block from raw kobjects to core devices

    This moves the block devices to /sys/class/block. It will create a
    flat list of all block devices, with the disks and partitions in one
    directory. For compatibility /sys/block is created and contains symlinks
    to the disks.

introduced a global disk_type variable in <linux/genhd.h>, causing the
following compile error on Atari:

    drivers/block/ataflop.c:93: error: conflicting types for 'disk_type'
    include/linux/genhd.h:21: error: previous declaration of 'disk_type' was here

Rename the local disk_type variable in drivers/block/ataflop.c to
atari_disk_type, to avoid the conflict.

Standardize the temperature units to millidegrees C for the two sensor

Unfortunately this will break any program using the ds18b20 value as it
will now be 1000 times bigger.  Fortunately there can't be that many users
out there, or some of these bugs will have been fixed by now, such as the
negative C error (see previous patch) that makes me think the ds18b20 is
the better choice to change because of the current bugs.

David Fries 6ffc787a44 system timer: fix crash in <100Hz system timer
The kernel has a divide by zero crash when trying to run the system timer
less than 100Hz.  The problem is x/(HZ/USER_HZ) and related.  Now
x*(USER_HZ/HZ) will be used if HZ<USER_HZ.

I'm running the Linux kernel under qemu and went to run a slower system
timer to take less CPU (and battery) on the host.  I found that the kernel
paniced under emulation because of a divide by zero in three places.  Here
is the patch.  The base git was updated today 01-05-2008.  I went for a
20Hz system time by adding config HZ_20 etc to kernel/Kconfig.hz.  With
this patch I verified the system timer by looking at /proc/interrupts.

Karsten Wiese 844fcc5396 make sys_poll() wait at least timeout ms
schedule_timeout(jiffies) waits for at least jiffies - 1.  Add 1 jiffie to
the timeout_jiffies calculated in sys_poll() to wait at least
timeout_msecs, like poll() manpage says.

Joe Peterson 54d2a37eda Fix IXANY and restart after signal (e.g. ctrl-C) in n_tty line discipline
Fix two N_TTY line discipline issues related to resuming a stopped TTY
(typically done with ctrl-S):

1) Fix handling of character that resumes a stopped TTY (with IXANY)

With "stty ixany", the TTY line discipline would lose the first character
after the stop, so typing, for example, "hi^Sthere" resulted in "hihere"
(the 't' would cause the resume after ^S, but it would then be thrown away
rather than processed as an input character).  This was inconsistent with
the behavior of other Unix systems.

2) Fix interrupt signal (e.g. ctrl-C) behavior in stopped TTYs

With "stty -ixany" (often the default), interrupt signals were ignored
in a stopped TTY until the TTY was resumed with the start char (typically
ctrl-Q), which was inconsistent with the behavior of other Unix systems.

Eric Dumazet 1bf47346d7 kernel/sys.c: get rid of expensive divides in groups_sort()
groups_sort() can be quite long if user loads a large gid table.

This is because GROUP_AT(group_info, some_integer) uses an integer divide.
So having to do XXX thousand divides during one syscall can lead to very
high latencies.  (NGROUPS_MAX=65536)

In the past (25 Mar 2006), an analog problem was found in groups_search()
(commit d74beb9f33 ) and at that time I
changed some variables to unsigned int.

I believe that a more generic fix is to make sure NGROUPS_PER_BLOCK is
unsigned.

Adrian Bunk 6c81c32f96 calibrate_delay() must be __cpuinit
calibrate_delay() must be __cpuinit, not __{dev,}init.

I've verified that this is correct for all users.

While doing the latter, I also did the following cleanups:
- remove pointless additional prototypes in C files
- ensure all users #include <linux/delay.h>

This fixes the following section mismatches with CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n,
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1128d): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text.1:calibrate_delay (between 'check_cx686_slop' and 'set_cx86_reorder')
