Darren Jenkins <darrenrjenkins@gmail.com> pointed out a
number of false positives where we referenced variables
from a _driver variable.
Fix it by check for that pattern and ignore it.
Randy.Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> pointed out a similar
set of warnings for a number of scsi drivers.
In scsi world they misname their variables *_template or
*_sht so add these to list of variables that may have references
to .init.text with no warning.
Randy.Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> also pointed out a scsi driver
with many references to .exit.text from .rodata. This is compiler
generated references and we already ignore these for .init.text, so
ignore them for .exit.text also.

initramfs.cpio.gz being build in usr/ and included in the
kernel was not rebuild when the included files changed.
To fix this the following was done:
- let gen_initramfs.sh generate a list of files and directories included
in the initramfs
- gen_initramfs generate the gzipped cpio archive so we could simplify
the kbuild file (Makefile)
- utilising the kbuild infrastructure so when uid/gid root mapping changes
the initramfs will be rebuild
With this change we have a much more robust initramfs generation.

This fix a longstanding bug where proper options was not

This bug showed up in (not yet merged) klibc, and is not known

Fixed by moving the flags macro to Kbuild.include so it can be used

When installing external modules with `make modules_install', the
first thing that happens is a rm -rf of the target directory. This
works only once, and breaks when installing more than one (set of)
external module(s).
With following fix we have the functionality:
- for a in-kernel modules_install the $(MODLIB)/kernel directory will be
deleted before module installation
- for external modules the existing modules will be left as is assuming
one may be building and installign several external modules

Using a relative path has the advantage that when the kernel source

You can't check PageLRU without holding zone->lru_lock. The page
release code can get away with it only because the page refcount is 0 at
that point. Also, you can't reliably remove pages from the LRU unless
the refcount is 0. Ever.

Thanks to Andrew for the good explanation of why this is so. akpm writes:
If a page is under writeback and we remove it from pagecache, it's still
going to get written to disk. But the VFS no longer knows about that page,
nor that this page is about to modify disk blocks.
So there might be scenarios in which those
blocks-which-are-about-to-be-written-to get reused for something else.
When writeback completes, it'll scribble on those blocks.
This won't happen in ext2/ext3-style filesystems in normal mode because the
page has buffers and try_to_release_page() will fail.
But ext2 in nobh mode doesn't attach buffers at all - it just sticks the
page in a BIO, finds some new blocks, points the BIO at those blocks and
lets it rip.
While that write IO's in flight, someone could truncate the file. Truncate
won't block on the writeout because the page isn't in pagecache any more.
So truncate will the free the blocks from the file under the page's feet.
Then something else can reallocate those blocks. Then write data to them.
Now, the original write completes, corrupting the filesystem.

By cleaning up the writeback logic (killing write_one_page() and the manual
set_page_dirty()), we can get rid of ->stolen inside the pipe_buffer and
just keep it local in pipe_to_file().
This also adds dirty page balancing logic and O_SYNC handling.

sbp2util_mark_command_completed takes a lock which was already taken by
sbp2scsi_complete_all_commands. This is a regression in Linux 2.6.15.
Reported by Kristian Harms at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187394
[ More complete commentary, as response to questions by Andrew: ]
> This changes the call environment for all implementations of
> ->Current_done(). Are they all safe to call under this lock?
Short answer: Yes, trust me. ;-) Long answer:
The done() callbacks are passed on to sbp2 from the SCSI stack along
with each SCSI command via the queuecommand hook. The done() callback
is safe to call in atomic context. So does
Documentation/scsi/scsi_mid_low_api.txt say, and many if not all SCSI
low-level handlers rely on this fact. So whatever this callback does,
it is "self-contained" and it won't conflict with sbp2's internal ORB
list handling. In particular, it won't race with the
sbp2_command_orb_lock.
Moreover, sbp2 already calls the done() handler with
sbp2_command_orb_lock taken in sbp2scsi_complete_all_commands(). I
admit this is ultimately no proof of correctness, especially since this
portion of code introduced the spinlock recursion in the first place and
we didn't realize it since this code's submission before 2.6.15 until
now. (I have learned a lesson from this.)
I stress-tested my patch on x86 uniprocessor with a preemptible SMP
kernel (alas I have no SMP machine yet) and made sure that all code
paths which involve the sbp2_command_orb_lock were gone through multiple
times.

Patch from Pavel Pisa
This patch adds support of i.MX/MX1 SD/MMC controller.
It has been significantly redesigned from the original Sascha Hauer's
version to support scatter-gather DMA, to conform to latest Pierre Ossman's
and Russell King's MMC-SD Linux 2.6.x infrastructure.
The handling of all events has been moved to the softirq context
and is designed with no busy-looping in mind. Unfortunately
some controller bugs has to be overcome by limited looping
about 2-20 usec but these are observed only for initial card
recognition phase.
There are still some missing/missed IRQs problems under heavy load.
Help of somebody with access to the full SDHC design information
is probably necessary.
Regenerated against 2.6.16-git-060402 to solve clash with other patches.
