I am about to commit:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-10/msg00033.html
that fixes a problem with the LD/SD macro currently implemented by GAS for
the o32 ABI in an inconsistent way. This is best illustrated with a
simple program, which I'm copying here from the message above for easier
reference:
$ cat ld.s
ld $5,32767($4)
ld $5,32768($4)
This gets assebled into the following output:
$ mips-linux-as -32 -mips3 -o ld.o ld.s
$ mips-linux-objdump -d ld.o
ld.o: file format elf32-tradbigmips
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <.text>:
0: dc857fff ld a1,32767(a0)
4: 3c010001 lui at,0x1

c: 8c258000 lw a1,-32768(at)
10: 8c268004 lw a2,-32764(at)
...
Oops!
The GAS fix makes the macro behave in a consistent way and pairs of LW/SW
instructions to be output as appropriate regardless of the size of the
offset associated with the address used. The machine instruction is still
available, but to reach it macros have to be disabled first. This has a
side effect of requiring the use of a machine-addressable memory operand.
As some platforms require 64-bit operations for accesses to some I/O
registers LD/SD instructions are used in a couple of places in Linux
regardless of the ABI selected. Here's a fix for some pieces of code
affected I've been able to track down. The fix should be backwards
compatible with all supported binutils releases in existence and can be
used as a reference for any other places or off-tree code. The use of the
"R" constraint guarantees a machine-addressable operand.

The nvram_get function was never in the mainline kernel, it only existed in
an external OpenWrt patch. Use nvram_getenv function, which is in mainline
and use an include instead of an extra function declaration. et0macaddr
contains the mac address in text from like 00:11:22:33:44:55. We have to
parse it before adding it into macaddr.
nvram_parse_macaddr will be merged into asm/mach-bcm47xx/nvram.h through
the MIPS git tree and will be available soon. It will not build now without
nvram_parse_macaddr, but it hasn't before either.

Consider the following test case:
write_c0_compare(read_c0_count());
Even if the counter doesn't increment during execution, this might not
generate an interrupt until the counter wraps around. The CPU may
perform the comparison each time CP0 COUNT increments, not when CP0
COMPARE is written.
If mips_next_event() is called with a very small delta, and CP0 COUNT
increments during the calculation of "cnt += delta", it is possible
that CP0 COMPARE will be written with the current value of CP0 COUNT.
If this is detected, the function should return -ETIME, to indicate
that the interrupt might not have actually gotten scheduled.

There are some situations (e.g. in __pm_generic_call()), where
pm_runtime_suspended() is used to decide whether or not to execute
a device's (system) ->suspend() callback. The callback is not
executed if pm_runtime_suspended() returns true, but it does so
for devices that don't even support runtime PM, because the
power.disable_depth device field is ignored by it. This leads to
problems (i.e. devices are not suspened when they should), so rework
pm_runtime_suspended() so that it returns false if the device's
power.disable_depth field is different from zero.

Commit 3624eb0 (PM / Hibernate: Modify signature used to mark swap)
attempted to modify hibernate signature used to mark swap partitions
containing hibernation images, so that old kernels don't try to
handle compressed images. However, this change broke resume from
hibernation on Fedora 14 that apparently doesn't pass the resume=
argument to the kernel and tries to trigger resume from early user
space. This doesn't work, because the signature is now different,
so the old signature has to be restored to avoid the problem.

Since the irqtime accounting is using non-atomic u64 and can be read
from remote cpus (writes are strictly cpu local, reads are not) we
have to deal with observing partial updates.
When we do observe partial updates the clock movement (in particular,
->clock_task movement) will go funny (in either direction), a
subsequent clock update (observing the full update) will make it go
funny in the oposite direction.
Since we rely on these clocks to be strictly monotonic we cannot
suffer backwards motion. One possible solution would be to simply
ignore all backwards deltas, but that will lead to accounting
artefacts, most notable: clock_task + irq_time != clock, this
inaccuracy would end up in user visible stats.
Therefore serialize the reads using a seqcount.

only use delta increments, which avoids the whole issue.

Two x86 patches broke lguest:
1) v2.6.35-492-g72d7c3b, which changed x86 to use the memblock allocator.
In lguest, the host places linear page tables at the top of mem, which
used to be enough to get us up to the swapper_pg_dir page tables. With
the first patch, the direct mapping tables used that memory:
Before: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 7000-1a000
After: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 3fed000-4000000
I initially fixed this by lying about the amount of memory we had, so
the kernel wouldn't blatt the lguest boot pagetables (yuk!), but then...
2) v2.6.36-rc8-54-gb40827f, which made x86 boot use initial_page_table.
This was initialized in a part of head_32.S which isn't executed by
lguest; it is then copied into swapper_pg_dir. So we have to initialize
it; and anyway we switch to it before we blatt the old tables, so that
fixes the previous damage as well.
For the moment, I cut & pasted the code into lguest's boot code, but
next merge window I will merge them.

lguest is dumb and drops *all* the pagetables for set_pte (which is
only used for kernel mapping manipulation, so it's OK without highmem).
But it's used a lot in boot, too. As a guest optimization, we
suppressed this flushing until the first page switch. Now we have
initial_page_table, that happens much earlier, so extend the heuristic
to wait until we switch to something other than the swapper_pg_dir or
initial_page_table.
As measured on my laptop under kvm, this dropped the time-to-mount-root
from 48 seconds to 4.3 seconds.

On 2.6.37-rc1, garbage collection ioctl of nilfs was broken due to the
commit 263d90cefc ("nilfs2: remove own inode hash used for GC"),
and leading to filesystem corruption.
The patch doesn't queue gc-inodes for log writer if they are reused
through the vfs inode cache. Here, gc-inode is the inode which
buffers blocks to be relocated on GC. That patch queues gc-inodes in
nilfs_init_gcinode() function, but this function is not called when
they don't have I_NEW flag. Thus, some of live blocks are wrongly
overrode without being moved to new logs.
This resolves the problem by moving the gc-inode queueing to an outer
function to ensure it's done right.
