4021cb279a [PATCH] fix uidhash_lock <-> RCU deadlock
RCU task-struct freeing can call free_uid(), which is taking
uidhash_lock - while other users of uidhash_lock are softirq-unsafe.

The fix is to always take the uidhash_spinlock in a softirq-safe manner.

b6e4da7234 [PATCH] ipw2100: Fix setting txpower failed problem
The ipw2100 driver misunderstood the parameter of txpower.
Tx Power off means turn off the radio, but the driver interpret it as
"can't set txpower". So when getting the txpower, it sets disabled=1 to
the iwconifg tool in managed mode. And the tool will display "Tx Power off"
when disabled=1.

Now, in managed mode, iwconfig will not show "TX Power" if the radio is not
switched off. It will only display "Tx Power off" only if the radio is killed.

7add2a4398 [IPV6] MLDv2: fix change records when transitioning to/from inactive
The following patch fixes these problems in MLDv2:

1) Add/remove "delete" records for sending change reports when
        addition of a filter results in that filter transitioning to/from
        inactive. [same as recent IPv4 IGMPv3 fix]
2) Remove 2 redundant "group_type" checks (can't be IPV6_ADDR_ANY
        within that loop, so checks are always true)
3) change an is_in() "return 0" to "return type == MLD2_MODE_IS_INCLUDE".
        It should always be "0" to get here, but it improves code locality 
        to not assume it, and if some race allowed otherwise, doing
        the check would return the correct result.

248d5ca5ed [BLOCK] elevator: allow default scheduler to potentially be modular
Jens has decided that allowing the default scheduler to be a module is
a bug, and should not be allowed under kconfig.  However, I find that
scenario useful for debugging, and wish for the kernel to be able to
handle this situation without OOPSing, if I enable such an option in
the .config directly.  This patch dynamically checks for the presence
of the compiled-in default, and falls back to no-op, emitting a
suitable error message, when the default is not available

5f00397644 [BLOCK] elevator: default choice selection
My previous default iosched patch did a poor job dealing with the
'elevator=' boot-time option.  The old behavior falls back to the
compiled-in default if the requested one is not registered at boot
time.  This patch dynamically evaluates which default
to use, and emits a suitable error message when the requested scheduler
is not available.  It also does the 'as' -> 'anticipatory' conversion
before elevator registration, which along with a modified registration
function, allows it to correctly indicate which default scheduler is
in use.

Tested for a range of boot options on 2.6.16-rc1-mm2.

reset line until the machine is powered down... Looking closely at the
code, I found some possible issues in the way we setup the MDIO lines
during suspend along with slight divergences from what Darwin does when
resetting it that may explain the problem. That patch change these and
the problem appear to be gone for me at least... I also fixed an mdelay
-> msleep while I was at it to the pmac feature code that is called
when toggling the PHY reset line since sungem doesn't call it in an
