Following patch introduce support for setting options
to gcc that has effect for current directory and all
subdirectories.
The typical use case are an architecture or a subsystem that
decide to cover all files with -Werror.
Today alpha, mips and sparc uses -Werror in almost all their
Makefile- with subdir-ccflag-y it is now simpler to do so
as only the top-level directories needs to be covered.
Likewise if we decide to cover a full subsystem such
as net/ with -Werror this is done by adding a single
line to net/Makefile.

V3 of the early platform driver implementation.
Platform drivers are great for embedded platforms because we can separate
driver configuration from the actual driver. So base addresses,
interrupts and other configuration can be kept with the processor or board
code, and the platform driver can be reused by many different platforms.
For early devices we have nothing today. For instance, to configure early
timers and early serial ports we cannot use platform devices. This
because the setup order during boot. Timers are needed before the
platform driver core code is available. The same goes for early printk
support. Early in this case means before initcalls.
These early drivers today have their configuration either hard coded or
they receive it using some special configuration method. This is working
quite well, but if we want to support both regular kernel modules and
early devices then we need to have two ways of configuring the same
driver. A single way would be better.
The early platform driver patch is basically a set of functions that allow
drivers to register themselves and architecture code to locate them and
probe. Registration happens through early_param(). The time for the
probe is decided by the architecture code.
See Documentation/driver-model/platform.txt for more details.

Fix a zero address hole bug in the bonding arp_ip_target list
that was causing the bond to ignore ARP replies (bugz 13006).
Instead of just setting the array entry to zero, we now
copy any additional entries down one slot, putting the
zero entry at the end. With this change we can now have
all the loops that walk the array stop when they hit a zero
since there will be no addresses after it.
Changes are based in part on code fragment provided in kernel:

size got truncated when a checkpoint was created.
This stops the special treatment and will treat it as a regular file.

Add /proc entries to give the admin the ability to control the minimum and
maximum number of pdflush threads. This allows finer control of pdflush
on both large and small machines.
The rationale is simply one size does not fit all. Admins on large and/or
small systems may want to tune the min/max pdflush thread count to best
suit their needs. Right now the min/max is hardcoded to 2/8. While
probably a fair estimate for smaller machines, large machines with large
numbers of CPUs and large numbers of filesystems/block devices may benefit
from larger numbers of threads working on different block devices.
Even if the background flushing algorithm is radically changed, it is
still likely that multiple threads will be involved and admins would still
desire finer control on the min/max other than to have to recompile the
kernel.
The patch adds '/proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads_min' and
'/proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads_max' with r/w permissions.
The minimum value for nr_pdflush_threads_min is 1 and the maximum value is
the current value of nr_pdflush_threads_max. This minimum is required
since additional thread creation is performed in a pdflush thread itself.
The minimum value for nr_pdflush_threads_max is the current value of
nr_pdflush_threads_min and the maximum value can be 1000.
Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt is also updated.

This driver supports mflash IO mode for linux.
Mflash is embedded flash drive and mainly targeted mobile and consumer
electronic devices.
Internally, mflash has nand flash and other hardware logics and supports 2
different operation (ATA, IO) modes. ATA mode doesn't need any new driver
and currently works well under standard IDE subsystem. Actually it's one
chip SSD. IO mode is ATA-like custom mode for the host that doesn't have
IDE interface.
Followings are brief descriptions about IO mode.
A. IO mode based on ATA protocol and uses some custom command. (read confirm,
write confirm)
B. IO mode uses SRAM bus interface.
C. IO mode supports 4kB boot area, so host can boot from mflash.
This driver is quitely similar to a standard ATA driver, but because of
following reasons it is currently seperated with ATA layer.
1. ATA layer deals standard ATA protocol. ATA layer have many low-
level device specific interface, but data transfer keeps ATA rule.
But, mflash IO mode doesn't.
2. Even though currently not used in mflash driver code, mflash has
some custom command and modes. (nand fusing, firmware patch, etc) If
this feature supported in linux kernel, ATA layer more altered.
3. Currently PATA platform device driver doesn't support interrupt.
(I'm not sure) But, mflash uses interrupt (polling mode is just for
debug).
4. mflash is somewhat under-develop product. Even though some company
already using mflash their own product, I think more time is needed for
standardization of custom command and mode. That time (maybe October)
I will talk to with ATA people. If they accept integration, I will
integrate.

The functions v4l2_i2c_new_subdev and v4l2_i2c_new_probed_subdev relied on
i2c_get_adapdata to return the v4l2_device. However, this is not always

The DMA transfers in pxa_camera showed some weaknesses in
multiple queued buffers context :
- poll/select problem
The bug shows up with capture_example tool from v4l2 hg
tree. The process just "stalls" on a "select timeout".
- multiple buffers DMA starting
When multiple buffers were queued, the DMA channels were
always started right away. This is not optimal, as a
special case appears when the first EOF was not yet
reached, and the DMA channels were prematurely started.
- Maintainability
DMA code was a bit obfuscated. Rationalize the code to be
easily maintainable by anyone.
- DMA hot chaining
DMA is not stopped anymore to queue a buffer, the buffer
is queued with DMA running. As a tribute, a corner case
exists where chaining happens while DMA finishes the
chain, and the capture is restarted to deal with the
missed link buffer.
This patch attemps to address these issues / improvements.

Add bindings to support LEDs defined as of_platform devices in addition to
the existing bindings for platform devices.
New options in Kconfig allow the platform binding code and/or the
of_platform code to be turned on. The of_platform code is of course only
available on archs that have OF support.
The existing probe and remove methods are refactored to use new functions
create_gpio_led(), to create and register one led, and delete_gpio_led(),
to unregister and free one led. The new probe and remove methods for the
of_platform driver can then share most of the common probe and remove code
with the platform driver.
The suspend and resume methods aren't shared, but they are very short. The
actual led driving code is the same for LEDs created by either binding.
The OF bindings are based on patch by Anton Vorontsov
<avorontsov@ru.mvista.com>. They have been extended to allow multiple LEDs
per device.

Refactor and redesign the brightness control backend...
In order to fix bugzilla #11750...
Add a new brightness control mode: support direct NVRAM checkpointing
of the backlight level (i.e. store directly to NVRAM without the need
for UCMS calls), and use that together with the EC-based control.
Disallow UCMS+EC, thus avoiding races with the SMM firmware.
Switch the models that define HBRV (EC Brightness Value) in the DSDT
to the new mode. These are: T40-T43, R50-R52, R50e, R51e, X31-X41.
Change the default for all other IBM ThinkPads to UCMS-only. The
Lenovo models already default to UCMS-only.

Some of the ThinkPad LEDs indicate critical conditions that can cause
data loss or cause hardware damage when ignored (e.g. force-ejecting
a powered up bay; ignoring a failing battery, or empty battery; force-
undocking with the dock buses still active, etc).
On almost all ThinkPads, LED access is write-only, and the firmware
usually does fire-and-forget signaling on them, so you effectively
lose whatever message the firmware was trying to convey to the user
when you override the LED state, without any chance to restore it.
Restrict access to all LEDs that can convey important alarms, or that
could mislead the user into incorrectly operating the hardware. This
will make the Lenovo engineers less unhappy about the whole issue.
Allow users that really want it to still control all LEDs, it is the
unaware user that we have to worry about.

The HKEY disable functionality basically cripples the entire event
model of the ThinkPad firmware and of the thinkpad-acpi driver.
Remove this functionality from the driver. HKEY must be enabled at
all times while thinkpad-acpi is loaded, and disabled otherwise.
For sysfs, according to the sysfs ABI and the thinkpad-acpi sysfs
rules of engagement, we will just remove the attributes. This will be
done in two stages: disable their function now, after two kernel
releases, remove the attributes.
For procfs, we call WARN(). If nothing triggers it, I will simply
remove the enable/disable commands entirely in the future along with
the sysfs attributes.
I don't expect much, if any fallout from this. There really isn't any
reason to mess with hotkey_enable or with the enable/disable commands
to /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey, and this has been true for years...

Add a debug helper that discloses the TGID of the userspace task

application is accessing thinkpad-acpi...

deprecated.
