each board implement a spin loop just let the generic code do
it.

In 2.6.15-git6 a change was commited in the oprofile support in
the powerpc architecture. It introduced the powerpc_oprofile_type
which contains the define G4. This causes a name clash with the
existing wacom usb tablet driver.
CC [M] drivers/usb/input/wacom.o
drivers/usb/input/wacom.c:98: error: conflicting types for `G4'
include/asm/cputable.h:37: error: previous declaration of `G4'

The elements of an enum declared in global scope are effectivly
global identifiers themselves. As such we need to ensure the names
are unique. This patch updates the later oprofile support to use
unique names.

The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible
alternative versions of shared libraries. This commit makes the kernel
supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor
we are running on. Processors with the same set of user-level
instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics
are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860
are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455
are all called "ppc7450".
The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that
gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option. For values which are numeric
(e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended.
This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets
it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family.

On PowerPC, we want to be able to provide an AT_PLATFORM aux table
entry to userspace, so that glibc can choose optimized libraries for
the processor we're running on. Unfortunately that would be the 21st
aux table entry on powerpc, meaning that the aux table including the
terminating null entry would overflow the mm->saved_auxv[] array,
leading to userland programs segfaulting.
This increases the size of the mm->saved_auxv array to be large enough
to accommodate an AT_PLATFORM entry on powerpc.

eieio is only a store - store ordering. When used to order an unlock
operation loads may leak out of the critical region. This is potentially
buggy, one example is if a user wants to atomically read a couple of
values.
We can solve this with an lwsync which orders everything except store - load.
I removed the (now unused) EIEIO_ON_SMP macros and the c versions
isync_on_smp and eieio_on_smp now we dont use them. I also removed some
old comments that were used to identify inline spinlocks in assembly,
they dont make sense now our locks are out of line.
Another interesting thing was that read_unlock was using an eieio even
though the rest of the spinlock code had already been converted to
use lwsync.

At present the lppaca - the structure shared with the iSeries
hypervisor and phyp - is contained within the PACA, our own low-level
per-cpu structure. This doesn't have to be so, the patch below
removes it, making a separate array of lppaca structures.
This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel
memory, because we don't need aligning gap between the Linux and
hypervisor portions of every PACA. On the other hand it means an
extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca.
The patch also gets rid of several places where we assign the paca
address to a local variable for no particular reason.

This patch consolidates the variety of macros used for loading 32 or
64-bit constants in assembler (LOADADDR, LOADBASE, SET_REG_TO_*). The
idea is to make the set of macros consistent across 32 and 64 bit and
to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given
situation. The new macros and their semantics are described in the
comments in ppc_asm.h.
In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using
immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC. Likewise we cleanup a
couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with
asm instructions to use assemble-time arithmetic or the toreal() macro
instead.

Add support for updating and removing device tree

abandon, we can't just free the property storage. Instead we
move deleted, or the old copy of an updated property, to a
"dead properties" list.
Also note, its not feasable to kref device tree properties.
we call get_property() all over the kernel in a wild variety
of contexts.
One consequence of this change is that we now take a
read_lock(&devtree_lock) when doing get_property().

Our systems have been crashing during testing of PCI HotPlug
support in the various networking components. We've faulted in
the bonding driver due to a bug in bond_alb.c:tlb_clear_slave()
In that routine, the last modification to the TLB hash table is
made without protection of the lock, allowing a race that can lead
tlb_choose_channel() to select an invalid table element.

This patch allows the Atmel driver to work correctly with wpa_supplicant

should not affect current behavior of the driver. The patch does four
things:
1) Implements SIOCSIWENCODEEXT, SIOCGIWENCODEEXT, SIOCSIWAUTH, and
SIOCGIWAUTH calls for unencrypted and WEP operation
2) Accepts zero-filled addresses for SIOCSIWAP, which are legal and
should turn off any previous forced WAP address
3) Sends association and de-association events to userspace at most of
the appropriate times
4) Fixes erroneous order of CIPHER_SUITE_WEP_* arguments in one location
which are actually unused anyway

We have identified two related bugs in the e100 driver.
Both bugs are related to manipulation of the MDI control register.
The first problem is that the Ready bit is being ignored when writing to
the Control register; we noticed this because the Linux bonding driver
would occasionally come to the spurious conclusion that the link was down
when querying Link State. It turned out that by failing to wait for a
previous command to complete it was selecting what was essentially a random
register in the MDI register set. When we added code that waits for the
Ready bit (as shown in the patch file below) all such problems ceased.
The second problem is that, although access to the MDI registers involves
multiple steps which must not be intermixed, nothing was defending against
two or more threads attempting simultaneous access. The most obvious
situation where such interference could occur involves the watchdog versus
ioctl paths, but there are probably others, so we recommend the locking
shown in our patch file.

This is part of a patch from Marc Singer to allow r2 to be
passed to the kernel. Marc's original comments follow:
This revised R2 (atags pointer) patch incorporates comments from Nico
Pitre and Ben Dooks. It modifies the head.S files such that the R2
value set by the bootloader is conveyed to the kernel startup code.
The kernel head.S heuristically validates the pointer. It will set R2
to zero if it believes the pointer is invalid. Presently, it requires
that the ATAGS list reside in the first 16KiB of physical RAM.
Relaxing this contraint may be both desirable as well as tricky.
