Jeff Layton aa53ed541a NFS4: on a O_EXCL OPEN make sure SETATTR sets the fields holding the verifier
The Linux NFS4 client simply skips over the bitmask in an O_EXCL open
call and so it doesn't bother to reset any fields that may be holding
the verifier. This patch has us save the first two words of the bitmask
(which is all the current client has #defines for). The client then
later checks this bitmask and turns on the appropriate flags in the
sattr->ia_verify field for the following SETATTR call.

This patch only currently checks to see if the server used the atime
and mtime slots for the verifier (which is what the Linux server uses
for this). I'm not sure of what other fields the server could
reasonably use, but adding checks for others should be trivial.

Jeff Layton 83d93f2229 NFS: Use GFP_HIGHUSER for page allocation in nfs_symlink()
nfs_symlink() allocates a GFP_KERNEL page for the pagecache. Most
pagecache pages are allocated using GFP_HIGHUSER, and there's no reason
not to do that in nfs_symlink() as well.

Trond Myklebust 4a35bd41af NFSv4: Ensure that nfs4_do_close() doesn't race with umount
nfs4_do_close() does not currently have any way to ensure that the user
won't attempt to unmount the partition while the asynchronous RPC call
is completing. This again may cause Oopses in nfs_update_inode().

Add a vfsmount argument to nfs4_close_state to ensure that the partition
remains mounted while we're closing the file.

Alan Cox 4eb6bf6bfb lots-of-architectures: enable arbitary speed tty support
Add the termios2 structure ready for enabling on most platforms.  One or
two like Sparc are plain weird so have been left alone.  Most can use the
same structure as ktermios for termios2 (ie the newer ioctl uses the
structure matching the current kernel structure)

Pavel Emelianov bcf67e1625 Make common helpers for seq_files that work with list_heads
Many places in kernel use seq_file API to iterate over a regular list_head.
The code for such iteration is identical in all the places, so it's worth
introducing a common helpers.

This makes code about 300 lines smaller:

The first version of this patch made the helper functions static inline
in the seq_file.h header. This patch moves them to the fs/seq_file.c as
Andrew proposed. The vmlinux .text section sizes are as follows:

2.6.22-rc1-mm1:              0x001794d5
with the previous version:   0x00179505
with this patch:             0x00179135

The config file used was make allnoconfig with the "y" inclusion of all
the possible options to make the files modified by the patch compile plus
drivers I have on the test node.

This patch:

Richard Purdie 64c70b1cf4 Add LZO1X algorithm to the kernel
This is a hybrid version of the patch to add the LZO1X compression
algorithm to the kernel.  Nitin and myself have merged the best parts of
the various patches to form this version which we're both happy with (and
are jointly signing off).

The performance of this version is equivalent to the original minilzo code
it was based on.  Bytecode comparisons have also been made on ARM, i386 and
x86_64 with favourable results.

There are several users of LZO lined up including jffs2, crypto and reiser4
since its much faster than zlib.

Masakazu Mokuno 02c1889166 ps3: gigabit ethernet driver for PS3, take3
Hi,

This is the third submission of the network driver for PS3.
The differences from the previous one are:

  - renamed source file names so that their prefix can match
    with the module name
  - added cbe-oss-dev@ozlabs.org line for MAINTAINER file
  - changed some in copyright comments

If there are no more comments, please apply for 2.6.23.

Thank you

--
Subject: PS3: Ethernet driver

From: Masakazu Mokuno <mokuno@sm.sony.co.jp>

Add Gigabit Ethernet support for the PS3 game console.  The module will
be called ps3_gelic.

Jay Vosburgh c2edacf80e bonding / ipv6: no addrconf for slaves separately from master
At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is
active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed
then opened during the enslavement processing).  This causes DAD and RS
packets to be sent from the slave.  These packets in turn can confuse
switches that perform ipv6 snooping, causing them to incorrectly update
their forwarding tables (if, e.g., the slave being added is an inactve
backup that won't be used right away) and direct traffic away from the
active slave to a backup slave (where the incoming packets will be
dropped).

	This patch alters the behavior so that addrconf will only run on
the master device itself.  I believe this is logically correct, as it
prevents slaves from having an IPv6 identity independent from the
master.  This is consistent with the IPv4 behavior for bonding.

	This is accomplished by (a) having bonding set IFF_SLAVE sooner
in the enslavement processing than currently occurs (before open, not
after), and (b) having ipv6 addrconf ignore UP and CHANGE events on
slave devices.

	The eql driver also uses the IFF_SLAVE flag.  I inspected eql,
and I believe this change is reasonable for its usage of IFF_SLAVE, but
I did not test it.

Peter Korsgaard 9514bfe5d9 Cleanup usbnet_probe() return value handling
usbnet_probe() handles a positive return value from the driver bind()
function as success, but will later only setup the status handler if the
return value was zero, leading to confusion. Patch adjusts this to accept
positive values as success in both checks.

Stephen Hemminger 4638aef1e2 netxen: deinline and sparse fix
Get rid of dubious casts to (void *) which causes a sparse warning.
And move largeish function from inline to the one file that uses the code,
the compiler can then decide to inline it.

Compile tested only.

Simplify the marvell driver init a bit: Make the supported devices an
array instead of explicitly registering each structure. This makes it
considerably easier to add new devices down the road.

Robert P. J. Day 105b1bca4d [MIPS] PNX8550: Cleanup proc code.
Here's a slightly cleaner way of creating the /proc structure for the
pnx8850.  mostly, it creates a directory with default mode 555, since the
one you're creating is mode 444, which is somewhat unusual for a directory
under /proc.
