7a1d7f01b5 tulip: explicity set to D0 power state during init
During the first suspend the chip would refuse to enter D3.  Subsequent
suspends worked okay.  During resume the chip is commanded into D0.
Doing so during initialization fixes the initial suspend.

32f6249ba7 fs_enet: Adjust BDs after tx error
This patch fixes an occasional transmit lockup in the mac-fcc which
occurs after a tx error.  The test scenario had the local port set
to autoneg and the other end fixed at 100FD, resulting in a large
number of late collisions.

According to the MPC8280RM 30.10.1.3 (also 8272RM 29.10.1.3), after
a tx error occurs, TBPTR may sometimes point beyond BDs still marked
as ready.  This patch walks back through the BDs and points TBPTR to
the earliest one marked as ready.

Tested on a custom board with a MPC8280.

cf22f20ade drm/radeon: fix the r100/r200 ums block 0 page fix
airlied -> brown paper bag.

I blame Hi-5 or the Wiggles for lowering my IQ, move the fix inside some
brackets instead of breaking everything in site.

0dc698b93f ACPI: Don't let acpi_pad needlessly mark TSC unstable
acpi pad driver kind of aggressively marks TSC as unstable at init
time, on mwait capable and non X86_FEATURE_NONSTOP_TSC systems. This is
irrespective of whether pad driver is ever going to be used on the
system or deep C-states are supported/used. This will affect every user
who just happens to compile in (or get a kernel version which
compiles in) acpi pad driver.

Move mark_tsc_unstable() out of init to the actual idle invocation path
of the pad driver.

There is also another bug/missing_feature in the code that it does not
support 'always running apic timer' and switches to broadcast mode
unconditionally. Shaohua, can you take a look at that please.

2da513f582 ACPI: Minor cleanup eliminating redundant PMTIMER_TICKS to NS conversion
acpi_enter_[simple,bm] does
idle timing in ns, convert it to timeval, then to us, then to
pmtimer_ticks and then back to ns.

This patch changes things to
idle timing in ns, convert it to us, and then to pmtimer_ticks.

Just saves an imul along this path, but makes the code cleaner.

2671717265 intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors
This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on
Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors
and associated Intel Xeon processors.

It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.

For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y
allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.
Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle
and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".

Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,
making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.

intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.
Processors that are hot-added later will be limited
to using C1 in idle.

02cf4f9808 ACPI: acpi_idle: touch TS_POLLING only in the non-MWAIT case
commit d306ebc286
(ACPI: Be in TS_POLLING state during mwait based C-state entry)
fixed an important power & performance issue where ACPI c2 and c3 C-states
were clearing TS_POLLING even when using MWAIT (ACPI_STATE_FFH).
That bug had been causing us to receive redundant scheduling interrups
when we had already been woken up by MONITOR/MWAIT.

Following up on that...

In the MWAIT case, we don't have to subsequently
check need_resched(), as that c heck was there
for the TS_POLLING-clearing case.

Note that not only does the cpuidle calling function
already check need_resched() before calling us, the
low-level entry into monitor/mwait calls it twice --
guaranteeing that a write to the trigger address
can not go un-noticed.

Also, in this case, we don't have to set TS_POLLING
when we wake, because we never cleared it.
