The wrong address was being used to write the SCIR led regs on remote

indexed these regs.  Standardize on using the lower 6 bits of the APIC
ID as the index.

66f0dc481e mm: move sys_mmap_pgoff from util.c
Move sys_mmap_pgoff() from mm/util.c to mm/mmap.c and mm/nommu.c,
where we'd expect to find such code: especially now that it contains
the MAP_HUGETLB handling.  Revert mm/util.c to how it was in 2.6.32.

This patch just ignores MAP_HUGETLB in the nommu case, as in 2.6.32,
whereas 2.6.33-rc2 reported -ENOSYS.  Perhaps validate_mmap_request()
should reject it with -EINVAL?  Add that later if necessary.

75c85a0bc1 libsrp: fix compile failure
commit 4546548789 ("kfifo: move struct
kfifo in place") caused a compile failure in ibmvscsitgt.c because it
changed a pointer to kfifo in the libsrp.h structure to a direct
inclusion without including <linux/kfifo.h>.

The fix is simple, just add the include, but how did this happen? This
change, introduced at -rc2, hardly looks like a bug fix, and it clearly
didn't go through linux-next, which would have picked up this compile
failure (it only occurs on ppc because of the ibm virtual scsi target).

[ Apparently all of -mm wasn't in linux-next.. ]

0637c6f413 ext4: Patch up how we claim metadata blocks for quota purposes
As reported in Kernel Bugzilla #14936, commit d21cd8f triggered a BUG
in the function ext4_da_update_reserve_space() found in
fs/ext4/inode.c.  The root cause of this BUG() was caused by the fact
that ext4_calc_metadata_amount() can severely over-estimate how many
metadata blocks will be needed, especially when using direct
block-mapped files.

In addition, it can also badly *under* estimate how much space is
needed, since ext4_calc_metadata_amount() assumes that the blocks are
contiguous, and this is not always true.  If the application is
writing blocks to a sparse file, the number of metadata blocks
necessary can be severly underestimated by the functions
ext4_da_reserve_space(), ext4_da_update_reserve_space() and
ext4_da_release_space().  This was the cause of the dq_claim_space
reports found on kerneloops.org.

Unfortunately, doing this right means that we need to massively
over-estimate the amount of free space needed.  So in some cases we
may need to force the inode to be written to disk asynchronously in
to avoid spurious quota failures.

d1f9e49707 ACPI: WMI: Survive BIOS with duplicate GUIDs
It would appear that in BIOS's with nVidia hooks, the GUID
05901221-D566-11D1-B2F0-00A0C9062910 is duplicated. For now, the simplest
solution is to just ignore any duplicate GUIDs. These particular hooks are not
currently supported/ used in the kernel, so whoever does that can figure out
what the 'right' solution should be (if there's a better one).

7a9568f536 dell-wmi - fix condition to abort driver loading
From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>

The commit 1fdd407f4e incorrectly made driver
abort loading when known GUID is present when it should have done exactly
the opposite.

fda11e61ff dell-wmi, hp-wmi, msi-wmi: check wmi_get_event_data() return value
When acpi_evaluate_object() is passed ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER,
the caller must kfree the returned buffer if AE_OK is returned.

The callers of wmi_get_event_data() pass ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER,
and thus must check its return value before accessing
or kfree() on the buffer.

f27725756b ACPI: hp-wmi, msi-wmi: clarify that wmi_install_notify_handler() returns an acpi_status
Emphasize that that wmi_install_notify_handler() returns an acpi_status
rather than -errno by by testing ACPI_SUCCESS(), ACPI_FAILURE().

No functional change in this patch, but this confusion caused a bug in dell-wmi.

wmi_install_notify_handler() returns an acpi_error,

28c32e99bd ACPI video: no warning message if "acpi_backlight=vendor" is used
AML code always sends notifications to ACPI video device,
even if we disable the ACPI backlight control by using
boot option "acpi_backlight=vendor".

In this case we should not print any warning message.

27d0567ab6 ACPI: fix ACPI=n allmodconfig build
Today's -tip failed to build because commit
9e368fa011 ("ipmi: add PNP discovery (ACPI
namespace via PNPACPI)") from today's upstream kernel causes the following
build failure on x86, for CONFIG_ACPI=n && CONFIG_IPMI_SI=y:

 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3208: error: 'ipmi_pnp_driver' undeclared (first use in this function)
 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3208: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3208: error: for each function it appears in.)
 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3334: error: 'ipmi_pnp_driver' undeclared (first use in this function)

The reason is that the ipmi_pnp_driver depends on ACPI facilities and is only
made available under ACPI - while the registration and unregistration is made
dependent on CONFIG_PNP:

 #ifdef CONFIG_PNP
 	pnp_register_driver(&ipmi_pnp_driver);
 #endif

The solution is to only register this driver under ACPI. (Also, the CONFIG_PNP
dependency is not needed because pnp_register_driver() is stubbed out in the
!CONFIG_PNP case.)

404e4b43fd md: allow a resync that is waiting for other resync to complete, to be aborted.
If two arrays share a device, then they will not both resync at the
same time.  One will wait for the other to complete.
While waiting, the MD_RECOVERY_INTR flag is not checked so a device
failure, which would make the resync pointless, does not cause the
resync to abort, so the failed device cannot be removed (as it cannot
be remove while a resync is happening).

So add a test for MD_RECOVERY_INTR.
