In 9d6a8c5c213e34c475e72b245a8eb709258e968c we changed posix_test_lock
to modify its single file_lock argument instead of taking separate input
and output arguments. This makes it no longer safe to set the output
lock's fl_type to F_UNLCK before looking for a conflict, since that
means searching for a conflict against a lock with type F_UNLCK.
This fixes a regression which causes F_GETLK to incorrectly report no
conflict on most filesystems (including any filesystem that doesn't do
its own locking).
Also fix posix_lock_to_flock() to copy the lock type. This isn't
strictly necessary, since the caller already does this; but it seems
less likely to cause confusion in the future.
Thanks to Doug Chapman for the bug report.

It seems that some watchdog drivers are doing following mistake:
rv = misc_register();
if (rv < 0)
return rv;
rv = request_region();
if (rv < 0) {
misc_deregister();
return rv;
}
But, right after misc_register() returns, misc device can be opened and
ioctls interacting with hardware issued, and driver can do outb() to
port it doesn't own yet, because request_region() is still pending.
Here is my patch, compile-tested only.

A small regression appears to have been introduced in the recent patch
"cleanup compat ioctl handling", which was included in Linus' tree after
2.6.20.
siocdevprivate_ioctl() is no longer defined if CONFIG_NET is undefined,
whereas previously it was a dummy function in this case.
This causes compilation with CONFIG_COMPAT but without CONFIG_NET to fail.

Commit 2f4dfe206a2fc07099dfad77a8ea2f4b4ae2140f moved the definition
of hard_smp_processor_id() for the UP case from include/linux/smp.h
to include/asm/smp.h. However, include/linux/smp.h only includes
include/asm/smp.h in the SMP case, so code that wants to use
hard_smp_processor_id() has to include <asm/smp.h> explicitly to
be sure of getting the definition.

This adds the necessary support to hpte_decode() to handle 1TB
segments and 16GB pages, and removes an uninitialized value
warning on avpn.
We don't have any code to generate HPTEs for 1TB segments or 16GB

warning.

My patch "Cope with PCI host bridge I/O window not starting at 0"
introduced a bug in the calculation of the virtual addresses for the
I/O windows of PCI host bridges other than the first, because it
didn't account for the fact that hose->io_resource gets offset so that
it reflects the range of global I/O port numbers assigned to the
bridge. This fixes it and simplifies get_bus_io_range() in the
process.

Celleb has multiple PCI host bridges (phbs). Previous boot logic gives
non-overlapped bus IDs between PCI host bridges so you can identify
PHB by bus ID. But newer boot logic gives same bus ID between PHBs (it
gives bus ID 0 as root bus.) So we have to set 'phb->buid' as
non-zero.

The rheap allocation functions return a pointer, but the actual value is based
on how the heap was initialized, and so it can be anything, e.g. an offset
into a buffer. A ulong is a better representation of the value returned by
the allocation functions.
This patch changes all of the relevant rheap functions to use a unsigned long
integers instead of a pointer. In case of an error, the value returned is
a negative error code that has been cast to an unsigned long. The caller can
use the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro to check for this.
All code which calls the rheap functions is updated accordingly. Macros
IS_MURAM_ERR() and IS_DPERR(), have been deleted in favor of IS_ERR_VALUE().
Also added error checking to rh_attach_region().

This patch changes the interrupt enable sequence for the sunzilog driver
so that interrupts are not enabled untill after the interrupt handler has
been installed. If this is not done, some SS1 and SS2 sun4c systems panic
on un-handled interrupt before the handler gets installed preventing boot.
It also adds in support for the ESCC version of the zilog chips. The
changes mean that the FIFO will be enabled for ESCC versions of the
SCC UART. My interpretation of the SCC manual and the existing interrupt
handler code is that it sould be able to make good use of the FIFO without
issues.

All the sun4u controllers do the same thing to compute the physical
I/O address to poke, and we can move the sun4v code into this common
location too.
This one needs a bit of testing, in particular the Sabre code had some
funny stuff that would break up u16 and/or u32 accesses into pieces
and I didn't think that was needed any more. If it is we need to find
out why and add back code to do it again.

commands
The ACPI EC that is used in MSI laptops knows some non-standard
commands for changing the screen brighntess and a few other things,
which are used by the msi-laptop.c driver. Unfortunately for these
commands no GPE events for IBF and OBF are triggered. Since nowadays
the EC code uses the ec_intr=1 mode by default, this causes these
operations to timeout, although they don't fail. In result, all
operations that you can do with the msi-laptop.c driver take more or
less 1s to complete, which is awfully slow.
In one of the more recent kernels (2.6.20?) the EC subsystem has been
revamped. With that change the EC timeout has been increased. before
that increase the MSI EC accesses were slow -- but not *that* slow,
hence I took notice of this limitation of the MSI EC hardware only very
recently.
The standard EC operations on the MSI EC as defined in the ACPI spec
support GPE events properly.
The following patch adds a new argument "force_poll" to the
ec_transaction() function (and friends). If set to 1, the function
will poll for IBF/OBF even if ec_intr=1 is enabled. If set to 0 the
current behaviour is used. The msi-laptop driver is modified to make
use of this new flag, so that OBF/IBF is polled for the special MSI EC
transactions -- but only for them.
