x86: GEODE fix a race condition in the MFGPT timer tick
When we set the MFGPT timer tick, there is a chance that we'll
immediately assert an event. If for some reason the IRQ routing
for this clock has been setup for some other purpose, then we
could end up firing an interrupt into the SMM handler or worse.
This rearranges the timer tick init function to initalize the handler
before we set up the MFGPT clock to make sure that even if we get
an event, it will go to the handler.
Furthermore, in the handler we need to make sure that we clear the
event, even if the timer isn't running.

W1: w1_therm.c is flagging 0C etc as invalid
The extra rom[0] check is flagging valid temperatures as invalid when
there is already a CRC data transmission check.
w1_therm_read_bin()
if (rom[8] == crc && rom[0])
verdict = 1;
Requiring rom[0] to be non-zero will flag as invalid temperature
conversions when the low byte is zero, specifically the temperatures 0C,
16C, 32C, 48C, -16C, -32C, and -48C.
The CRC check is produced on the device for the previous 8 bytes and is
required to ensure the data integrity in transmission. I don't see why the
extra check for rom[0] being non-zero is in there. Evgeniy Polyakov didn't
know either. Just for a check I unplugged the sensor, executed a
temperature conversion, and read the results. The read was all ff's, which
also failed the CRC, so it doesn't need to protect against a disconnected
sensor.

do for today. I would like to hear from people who use the ds2490 USB to

hwmon: (it87) request only Environment Controller ports
The IT8705F and related parts are Super I/O controllers that contain
many separate devices.
Some BIOSes describe IT8705F I/O port usage under a motherboard device
(PNP0C02) with overlapping regions, e.g., 0x290-0x29f and 0x290-0x294.
The it87 driver supports only the Environment Controller, which requires
only two ISA ports, but it used to request an eight-port range. If that
range exceeds a range reported by the BIOS, as 0x290-0x297 would, the
request fails, and the it87 driver cannot claim the device.
This patch makes the it87 driver request only the two ports used for the
Environment Controller device.

The way the net_rx_work() breakout logic works during a pending

still has work.
This can potentially leave interrupts disabled, but that is OK
because all of the drivers are about to disable interrupts
anyways in all such code paths that do a napi_disable().
Unfortunately, this trips up the semaphore used here in the Intel

Framebuffer is ok only with default parameters only (it is 1280x800-8@60). If
parameters are video=radeonfb:1280x800-32@60 then xres, yres and xres_virtual
are ok but yres_virtual is 1024. It can be corrected by fbset utility so I
think it can be corrected in the driver code also.
Steps to reproduce: video=radeonfb:1280x800-32@60 or
video=radeonfb:1280x800-16@60
Add 1280x800 mode into modedb

#ifdef very expensive debug check in page fault path
This patch puts #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM around a check in vm_normal_page
that verifies that a pfn is valid. This patch increases performance of the
page fault microbenchmark in lmbench by 13% and overall dbench performance
by 7% on s390x. pfn_valid() is an expensive operation on s390 that needs a
high double digit amount of CPU cycles. Nick Piggin suggested that
pfn_valid() involves an array lookup on systems with sparsemem, and
therefore is an expensive operation there too.
The check looks like a clear debug thing to me, it should never trigger on
regular kernels. And if a pte is created for an invalid pfn, we'll find
out once the memory gets accessed later on anyway. Please consider
inclusion of this patch into mm.

mm: fix section mismatch warning in page_alloc.c
With CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y we saw
following warning:
WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.text+0x6864): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: (between 'process_zones' and 'pageset_cpuup_callback')
The culprit was zone_batchsize() which were annotated __devinit but used
from process_zones() which is annotated __cpuinit. zone_batchsize() are
used from another function annotated __meminit so the only valid option is
to drop the annotation of zone_batchsize() so we know it is always valid to
use it.

CRIS v10: vmlinux.lds.S: ix kernel oops on boot and use common defines
- Move alignment to page size of init data outside ifdef for BLK_DEV_INITRD.
The reservation up to page size of memory after init data was previously
not done if BLK_DEV_INITRD was undefined.
This caused a kernel oops when init memory pages were freed after startup,
data placed in the same page as the last init memory would also be freed
and reused, with disastrous results.
- Use macros for initcalls and .text sections.
- Replace hardcoded page size constant with PAGE_SIZE define.
- Change include/asm-cris/page.h to use the _AC macro to instead
of testing __ASSEMBLY__.

cpufreq: Initialise default governor before use
When the cpufreq driver starts up at boot time, it calls into the default
governor which might not be initialised yet. This hurts when the
governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up by its
init function.
This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when being
the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it was the
only possible choice. The performance governor is always initialized early
because it might be used as fallback even when not being the default.
Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor and
cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq work-queue
during boot-time.
