53af8ee409 Extract option parsing to new function
Move code to parse mount options into a separate function so it can

31af0abbda Per-mount 'config' object
With support for multiple mounts of devpts, the 'config' structure really
represents per-mount options rather than config parameters. Rename 'config'
structure to 'pts_mount_opts' and store it in the super-block.

To enable multiple mounts of devpts, 'allocated_ptys' must be a per-mount

Remove the 'devpts_root' global variable and find the root dentry using

a88a69c912 n_tty: Fix loss of echoed characters and remove bkl from n_tty
Fixes the loss of echoed (and other ldisc-generated characters) when
the tty is stopped or when the driver output buffer is full (happens
frequently for input during continuous program output, such as ^C)
and removes the Big Kernel Lock from the N_TTY line discipline.

Adds an "echo buffer" to the N_TTY line discipline that handles all
ldisc-generated output (including echoed characters).  Along with the
loss of characters, this also fixes the associated loss of sync between
tty output and the ldisc state when characters cannot be immediately
written to the tty driver.

The echo buffer stores (in addition to characters) state operations that need
to be done at the time of character output (like management of the column
position).  This allows echo to cooperate correctly with program output,
since the ldisc state remains consistent with actual characters written.

Since the echo buffer code now isolates the tty column state code
to the process_out* and process_echoes functions, we can remove the
Big Kernel Lock (BKL) and replace it with mutex locks.

Highlights are:

* Handles echo (and other ldisc output) when tty driver buffer is full
  - continuous program output can block echo
* Saves echo when tty is in stopped state (e.g. ^S)
  - (e.g.: ^Q will correctly cause held characters to be released for output)
* Control character pairs (e.g. "^C") are treated atomically and not
  split up by interleaved program output
* Line discipline state is kept consistent with characters sent to
  the tty driver
* Remove the big kernel lock (BKL) from N_TTY line discipline

80d5c474b8 Blackfin Serial Driver: fix bug - SIR driver stop receiving randomly
Bug description:
The IRDA receiver may can't receiving any more after processed some signals.

To duplicate this issue is put three IRDA devices together, one blackfin,
two none blackfin, they will detect each other. Let one none blackfin devices
irdaping the blackfin devices, when it stopped print out ping information,
it is the time that blackfin stoped receiving, the time is random.

The related register bit is OK, the other devices is sending data continuously.
But no interrupt come.

Fixing:
I tried Michael's suggestion that request the UARTx error interrupt, and reset
the IRDA when found FE error. This method helps much, but it can't completely
avoid stop.

Reset the IRDA before every time sending the data is more safe.

f9d1425007 Disallow gcc versions 4.1.{0,1}
These compiler versions are known to miscompile __weak functions and
thus generate kernels that don't necessarily work correctly.  If a weak
function is int he same compilation unit as a caller, gcc may end up
inlining it, and thus binding the weak function too early.

46814dded1 x86, UV: remove erroneous BAU initialization
Impact: fix crash on x86/UV

UV is the SGI "UltraViolet" machine, which is x86_64 based.
BAU is the "Broadcast Assist Unit", used for TLB shootdown in UV.

This patch removes the allocation and initialization of an unused table.

This table is left over from a development test mode.  It is unused in
the present code.

And it was incorrectly initialized: 8 entries allocated but 17 initialized,
causing slab corruption.

This patch should go into 2.6.27 and 2.6.28 as well as the current tree.

Diffed against 2.6.28 (linux-next, 12/30/08)

26799a6311 x86: fix incorrect __read_mostly on _boot_cpu_pda
The pda rework (commit 3461b0af02)
to remove static boot cpu pdas introduced a performance bug.

_boot_cpu_pda is the actual pda used by the boot cpu and is definitely
not "__read_mostly" and ended up polluting the read mostly section with
writes.  This bug caused regression of about 8-10% on certain syscall
intensive workloads.

07bd3f4731 ide-floppy: allocate only toplevel packet commands
This makes the top-level function just allocate a single pc entry, and then
pass it down as a pointer to all the helper functions that also need one
of those "struct ide_atapi_pc" things. As far as I can tell, the use of
these things never overlaps each other, BUT I DID NOT CHECK VERY CLOSELY!

So I'm not guaranteeing this is correct, and I don't have the hardware. It
would be good for somebody who knows the code more, and has the hardware,
could please test this?

With this, ide-floppy still has fairly big stack usage, but instead of

	idefloppy_ioctl [vmlinux]:              1208
	ide_floppy_get_capacity [vmlinux]:      872
	idefloppy_release [vmlinux]:            408
	idefloppy_open [vmlinux]:               408

where those two first ones are at the very top of the list of stack users
for me, it's now

	ide_floppy_get_capacity [vmlinux]:           404
	ide_floppy_ioctl [vmlinux]:                  364

ie they are still high, but they are no longer at the top.

Borislav: Since ide_floppy_get_capacity is passed as a function pointer to other
parts of the kernel (e.g., block layer) we need that ide_atapi_pc to be created
on stack. Also, redid stack users numbers above. The two functions missing from
Linus' original 'make stackusage' output are due to ide being
rewritten/reorganized atm.

* Remove no longer needed:
  - choose_drive() function
  - WAKEUP() macro
  - 'sleeping' flag from ide_hwif_t
  - 'service_{start,time}' fields from ide_drive_t

This patch results in much simpler and more maintainable code

295f00042a ide: don't execute the next queued command from the hard-IRQ context (v2)
* Tell the block layer that we are not done handling requests by using
  blk_plug_device() in ide_do_request() (request handling function)
  and ide_timer_expiry() (timeout handler) if the queue is not empty.

* Remove optimization which directly calls ide_do_request() for the next
  queued command from the ide_intr() (IRQ handler) and ide_timer_expiry().

* Remove no longer needed IRQ masking from ide_do_request() - in case of
  IDE ports needing serialization disable_irq_nosync()/enable_irq() was
  used for the (possibly shared) IRQ of the other IDE port.

* Put the misplaced comment in the right place in ide_do_request().

* Drop no longer needed 'int masked_irq' argument from ide_do_request().

* Merge ide_do_request() into do_ide_request().

* Remove no longer needed IDE_NO_IRQ define.

While at it:

* Don't use HWGROUP() macro in do_ide_request().

* Use __func__ in ide_intr().

This patch reduces IRQ hadling latency for IDE and improves the system-wide
handling of shared IRQs (which should result in more timeout resistant and
stable IDE systems).  It also makes it possible to do some further changes
later (i.e. replace some busy-waiting delays with sleeping equivalents).

v2:
Changes per review from Elias Oltmanns:
- fix wrong goto statement in 'if (startstop == ide_stopped)' block
- use spin_unlock_irq()
- don't use obsolete HWIF() macro
