faed5288af MIPS: Remove dead case label.
CPU_CAVIUM_OCTEON is mips_r2 which is handled before the switch.  This
label in the switch statement is dead code, so we remove it.

41f0e4d041 MIPS: Allow R2 CPUs to turn off generation of 'ehb' instructions.
Some CPUs do not need ehb instructions after writing CP0 registers.
By allowing ehb generation to be overridden in
cpu-feature-overrides.h, we can save a few instructions in the TLB
handler hot paths.

95affdda9b MIPS: Fold the TLB refill at the vmalloc path if possible.
Try to fold the 64-bit TLB refill handler opportunistically at the
beginning of the vmalloc path so as to avoid splitting execution flow in
half and wasting cycles for a branch required at that point then.  Resort
to doing the split if either of the newly created parts would not fit into
its designated slot.

The logic used to split the r4000 refill handler is liberally
sprinkled with magic numbers.  We attempt to explain what they are and
normalize them against a new symbolic value (MIPS64_REFILL_INSNS).

210ad6aedb ext4: avoid unnecessary spinlock in critical POSIX ACL path
If a filesystem supports POSIX ACL's, the VFS layer expects the filesystem
to do POSIX ACL checks on any files not owned by the caller, and it does
this for every single pathname component that it looks up.

That obviously can be pretty expensive if the filesystem isn't careful
about it, especially with locking. That's doubly sad, since the common
case tends to be that there are no ACL's associated with the files in
question.

ext4 already caches the ACL data so that it doesn't have to look it up
over and over again, but it does so by taking the inode->i_lock spinlock
on every lookup. Which is a noticeable overhead even if it's a private
lock, especially on CPU's where the serialization is expensive (eg Intel
Netburst aka 'P4').

For the special case of not actually having any ACL's, all that locking is
unnecessary. Even if somebody else were to be changing the ACL's on
another CPU, we simply don't care - if we've seen a NULL ACL, we might as
well use it.

So just load the ACL speculatively without any locking, and if it was
NULL, just use it. If it's non-NULL (either because we had a cached
entry, or because the cache hasn't been filled in at all), it means that
we'll need to get the lock and re-load it properly.

(This commit was ported from a patch originally authored by Linus for
ext3.)

9c64daff9d ext3: avoid unnecessary spinlock in critical POSIX ACL path

entry, or because the cache hasn't been filled in at all), it means that
we'll need to get the lock and re-load it properly.

This is noticeable even on Nehalem, which does locking quite well (much
better than P4). From lmbench:

	Processor, Processes - times in microseconds - smaller is better
	--------------------------------------------------------------------
	Host                 OS  Mhz null null      open slct fork exec sh
	                             call  I/O stat clos TCP  proc proc proc
	--------- ------------- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
 - before:
	nehalem.l Linux 2.6.30- 3193 0.04 0.09 0.95 1.45 2.18 69.1 273. 1141
	nehalem.l Linux 2.6.30- 3193 0.04 0.09 0.95 1.48 2.28 69.9 253. 1140
	nehalem.l Linux 2.6.30- 3193 0.04 0.10 0.95 1.42 2.19 68.6 284. 1141
 - after:
	nehalem.l Linux 2.6.30- 3193 0.04 0.09 0.92 1.44 2.12 68.3 282. 1094
	nehalem.l Linux 2.6.30- 3193 0.04 0.09 0.92 1.39 2.20 67.0 308. 1123
	nehalem.l Linux 2.6.30- 3193 0.04 0.09 0.92 1.39 2.36 67.4 293. 1148

where you can see what appears to be a roughly 3% improvement in stat
and open/close latencies from just the removal of the locking overhead.

Of course, this only matters for files you don't own (the owner never
needs to do the ACL checks), but that's the common case for libraries,
header files, and executables. As well as for the base components of any
absolute pathname, even if you are the owner of the final file.

[ At some point we probably want to move this ACL caching logic entirely
  into the VFS layer (and only call down to the filesystem when
  uncached), but in the meantime this improves ext3 a bit.

  A similar fix to btrfs makes a much bigger difference (15x improvement
  in lmbench) due to broken caching. ]

005411c3e9 AFS: Correctly translate auth error aborts and don't failover in such cases
Authentication error abort codes should be translated to appropriate
Linux error codes, rather than all being translated to EREMOTEIO - which
indicates that the server had internal problems.

Additionally, a server shouldn't be marked unavailable and the next
server tried if an authentication error occurs.  This will quickly make
all the servers unavailable to the client.  Instead the error should be
returned straight to the user.

3ed167af96 fbdev: s1d13xxxfb: add accelerated bitblt functions
Add accelerated bitblt functions to s1d13xxx based video chipsets, more
specificly functions copyarea and fillrect.

It has only been tested and activated for 13506 chipsets but is expected
to work for the majority of s1d13xxx based chips.  This patch also cleans
up the driver with respect of whitespaces and other formatting issues.  We
update the current status comments.

fe3a1aa239 tcx: use standard fields for framebuffer physical address and length
Use standard fields fbinfo.fix.smem_start and fbinfo.fix.smem_len for
physical address and length of framebuffer.

This also fixes output of the 'fbset -i' command - address and length of
the framebuffer are displayed correctly.

4410f39109 fbdev: add support for handoff from firmware to hw framebuffers
With KMS we have ran into an issue where we really want the KMS fb driver
to be the one running the console, so panics etc can be shown by switching
out of X etc.

However with vesafb/efifb built-in, we end up with those on fb0 and the
KMS fb driver on fb1, driving the same piece of hw, so this adds an fb
info flag to denote a firmware fbdev, and adds a new aperture base/size
range which can be compared when the hw drivers are installed to see if
there is a conflict with a firmware driver, and if there is the firmware
driver is unregistered and the hw driver takes over.

It uses new aperture_base/size members instead of comparing on the fix
smem_start/length, as smem_start/length might for example only cover the
first 1MB of the PCI aperture, and we could allocate the kms fb from 8MB
into the aperture, thus they would never overlap.

b586640141 intelfb: fix a bug when changing video timing
When changing video timing dynamically via fbset the screen sporadically
is rendered black.

With the attached fix which disables VCO prior to timing register change
the problem disappears.

I had a look at the Xserver register setup code. Here the VCO is
disabled in the same way [1].

This patch is taken from vga-sync-field version 0.0.11 [2][3].
