f0b1e58924 [MTD] [MAPS] move sa1100 flash's probe function to .devinit.text
A pointer to sa1100_mtd_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded.  Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.

An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.

4b08e149c0 [MTD] ofpart: Check name property to determine partition nodes.
SLOF has a further node which could not be evaluated
by the current routine. The current routine returns
because the node hasn't the required reg property. As
fix this patch adds a check to determine the partition
child nodes. If the node is not a partition the number
of total partitions will be decreased and loop continues
with the next nodes.

f52fd5b7fd NOMMU: Fix the RomFS Kconfig to ensure at least one backing store is selected
Fix the configuration of the RomFS to make sure that at least one 
backing store method is always selected.  This is done by rendering it 
down to a choice item that selects between Block, MTD and both.

This also works correctly in the case that CONFIG_MTD=m: MTD cannot be 
selected as a backing store unless CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is also 'm'.

da4458bda2 NOMMU: Make it possible for RomFS to use MTD devices directly
Change RomFS so that it can use MTD devices directly - without the intercession
of the block layer - as well as using block devices.

This permits RomFS:

 (1) to use the MTD direct mapping facility available under NOMMU conditions if
     the underlying device is directly accessible by the CPU (including XIP);

 (2) and thus to be used when the block layer is disabled.

RomFS can be configured with support just for MTD devices, just for Block
devices or for both.  If RomFS is configured for both, then it will treat
mtdblock device files as MTD backing stores, not block layer backing stores.

I tested this using a CONFIG_MMU=n CONFIG_BLOCK=n kernel running on my FRV
board with a RomFS image installed on the mtdram test device.  I see my test
program being run XIP:

	# cat /proc/maps
	...
	c0c000b0-c0c01f8c r-xs 00000000 1f:00 144        /mnt/doshm
	...

GDB on the kernel can be used to show that these addresses are within the
set-aside RAM space.

Add support for direct mapping through mtdconcat, if possible, by attaching the
samebacking_dev_info structure to the master.

It has some restrictions:

 (1) It won't permit direct mapping of concatenated devices that have differing

 (2) It doesn't support maps that span the 'gap' between devices, although it
     possibly could if the devices spanned across return compatible
     (ie. contiguous) addresses from their get_unmapped_area() ops.

e2a0f25b4f [MTD] mtdoops: allow MTD selection by name
MTD's have both an index number and a name.  Formerly,
the MTD selected for mtdoops was done only by index
number.  With this patch, a name can be used instead.

For example, the kernel command line:

	console=ttyMTD5

selects MTD 5 for mtdoops.  But now this is also possible:

	console=ttyMTD,log

which selects the MTD named "log" for mtdoops.

This has the advantage that partitions can be added or
removed that would affect the MTD index number but not the
name, without having to then change the kernel command line.

This is a device driver for the NAND flash controller found on the various
DaVinci family chips.  It handles up to four SoC chipselects, and some
flavors of secondary chipselect (e.g.  based on upper bits of the address
bus) as used with some multichip packages.  (Including the 2 GiB chips
used on some TI devel boards.)

The 1-bit ECC hardware is supported (3 bytes ECC per 512 bytes data); but
not yet the newer 4-bit ECC (10 bytes ECC per 512 bytes data), as
available on chips like the DM355 or OMAP-L137 and needed with the more
error-prone MLC NAND chips.

This is a cleaned-up version of code that's been in use for several years
now; sanity checked with the new drivers/mtd/tests.

52ff49df7f [MTD] [NAND] fix "raw" reads with ECC syndrome layouts
The syndrome based page read/write routines store ECC, and possibly other
"OOB" data, right after each chunk of ECC'd data.  With ECC chunk size of
512 bytes and a large page (2KiB) NAND, the layout is:

  data-0 OOB-0 data-1 OOB-1 data-2 OOB-2 data-3 OOB-3 OOB-leftover

Where OOBx is (prepad, ECC, postpad).  However, the current "raw" routines
use a traditional layout -- data OOB, disregarding the prepad and postpad
values -- so when they're used with that type of ECC hardware, those calls
mix up the data and OOB.  Which means, in particular, that bad block
tables won't be found on startup, with data corruption and related chaos
ensuing.

The current syndrome-based drivers in mainline all seem to use one chunk
per page; presumably they haven't noticed such bugs.

Fix this, by adding read/write page_raw_syndrome() routines as siblings of
the existing non-raw routines; "raw" just means to bypass the ECC
computations, not change data and OOB layout.

65c24491b4 aio: lookup_ioctx can return the wrong value when looking up a bogus context
The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a
bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list
(harness/cases/3.p).

Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process
exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio
(since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0).

The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless"
(commit abf137dd77).

Thanks to Zach for pointing out that hlist_for_each_entry_rcu will not
return with a NULL tpos at the end of the loop, even if the entry was
not found.

87c3a86e1c eventfd: remove fput() call from possible IRQ context
Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context.  Myself, like Eric,
wasn't able to reproduce an fput() call from IRQ context, but Jeff said he was
able to, with the attached test program.  Independently from this, the bug is
conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it.  This patch adds an
optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd.
Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative
here would be to add a brand new delayed fput() infrastructure, that I'm not
sure is worth it.

a8e7d49aa7 Fix race in create_empty_buffers() vs __set_page_dirty_buffers()
Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page
dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping
private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure
that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without
the dirty bits set when the page is dirty.

I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue
Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve
a real race, which we should close."

68df3755e3 Add '-fwrapv' to gcc CFLAGS
This makes sure that gcc doesn't try to optimize away wrapping
arithmetic, which the kernel occasionally uses for overflow testing, ie
things like

	if (ptr + offset < ptr)

which technically is undefined for non-unsigned types. See

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12597

for details.

Not all versions of gcc support it, so we need to make it conditional
(it looks like it was introduced in gcc-3.4).

d0573facf2 Staging: benet: remove driver now that it is merged in drivers/net/
The benet driver is now in the proper place in drivers/net/benet, so we
can remove the staging version.
