Sebastien Dugué 43cdff92ad [PATCH] Fix IPMI watchdog set_param_str() using kstrdup
set_param_str() cannot use kstrdup() to duplicate the parameter.  That's
fine when the driver is compiled as a module but it sure is not when built
into the kernel as the kernel parameters are parsed before the kmalloc
slabs are setup.

Eric Anholt c41e0deb50 [AGPGART] fix detection of aperture size versus GTT size on G965
On the G965, the GTT size may be larger than is required to cover the
aperture.  (In fact, on all hardware we've seen, the GTT is 512KB to the
aperture's 256MB).  A previous commit forced the aperture size to 512MB on
G965 to match GTT, which would likely result in hangs at best if users
tried to rely on agpgart's aperture size information.  Instead, we use the
resource length for the aperture size and the system's reported GTT size
when available for the GTT size.

Because the MSAC registers which had been read for aperture size detection
on i9xx chips just cause a change in the resource size, we can use generic
code for aperture detection on all i9xx.

Thomas Hellstrom 5aa80c7226 [AGPGART] Remove unnecessary flushes when inserting and removing pages.
This patch is to speed up flipping of pages in and out of the AGP aperture as
needed by the new drm memory manager.

A number of global cache flushes are removed as well as some PCI posting flushes.
The following guidelines have been used:

1) Memory that is only mapped uncached and that has been subject to a global
cache flush after the mapping was changed to uncached does not need any more
cache flushes. Neither before binding to the aperture nor after unbinding.

2) Only do one PCI posting flush after a sequence of writes modifying page
entries in the GATT.

	  echo "De-casting $f..."
	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
	done

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

Currently this driver tracks user space clients it should send signals to.  In

Replacing this with a struct pid prevents us from getting confused, and

Corey Minyard 1d5636cc07 [PATCH] IPMI: misc fixes
Fix various problems pointed out by Andrew Morton and others:
  * platform_device_unregister checks for NULL, no need to check here.
  * Formatting fixes.
  * Remove big macro and convert to a function.
  * Use strcmp instead of defining a broken case-insensitive comparison,
    and make the output parameter info match the case of the input one
    (change "I/O" to "i/o").
  * Return the length instead of 0 from the hotmod parameter handler.
  * Remove some unused cruft.
  * The trydefaults parameter only has to do with scanning the "standard"
    addresses, don't check for that on ACPI.

Randy Dunlap 0c8204b380 [PATCH] IPMI: remove zero inits
Remove all =0 and =NULL from static initializers.  They are not needed and
removing them saves space in the object files.

Hugh Dickins 5fcf7bb73f [PATCH] read_zero_pagealigned() locking fix
Ramiro Voicu hits the BUG_ON(!pte_none(*pte)) in zeromap_pte_range: kernel
bugzilla 7645.  Right: read_zero_pagealigned uses down_read of mmap_sem,
but another thread's racing read of /dev/zero, or a normal fault, can
easily set that pte again, in between zap_page_range and zeromap_page_range
getting there.  It's been wrong ever since 2.4.3.

The simple fix is to use down_write instead, but that would serialize reads
of /dev/zero more than at present: perhaps some app would be badly
affected.  So instead let zeromap_page_range return the error instead of
BUG_ON, and read_zero_pagealigned break to the slower clear_user loop in
that case - there's no need to optimize for it.

Use -EEXIST for when a pte is found: BUG_ON in mmap_zero (the other user of
zeromap_page_range), though it really isn't interesting there.  And since
mmap_zero wants -EAGAIN for out-of-memory, the zeromaps better return that
than -ENOMEM.
