36a9135865 ACPI: Fix acpi_processor_idle and idle= boot parameters interaction
acpi_processor_idle and "idle=" boot parameter interaction is broken.
The problem is that, at boot time acpi driver is checking for "idle=" boot
option and not registering the acpi idle handler. But, when there is a CST
changed callback (typically when switching AC <-> battery or suspend-resume)
there are no checks for boot_option_idle_override and acpi idle handler tries
to get installed with nasty side effects.

With CPU_IDLE configured this issue causes results in a nasty oops on CST
change callback and without CPU_IDLE there is no oops, but boot option
of "idle=" gets ignored and acpi idle handler gets installed.

Change the behavior to not do anything in acpi idle handler when there is a
"idle=" boot option.

Note that the problem is only there when "idle=" boot option is used.

with the following config:

 http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Wed_Apr_30_10_21_40_CEST_2008.bad

the problem is caused by the drivers/media/common/tuners/ subdirectory
not being part of the kbuild hierarchy anymore, due to commit
7c91f0624 ("V4L/DVB(7767): Move tuners to common/tuners").

this seems similar to the problem also reported by Mike Galbraith.

5167464446 revert "memory hotplug: allocate usemap on the section with pgdat"
This:

commit 86f6dae137
Author: Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com>
Date:   Mon Apr 28 02:13:33 2008 -0700

    memory hotplug: allocate usemap on the section with pgdat

    Usemaps are allocated on the section which has pgdat by this.

    Because usemap size is very small, many other sections usemaps are allocated
    on only one page.  If a section has usemap, it can't be removed until removing
    other sections.  This dependency is not desirable for memory removing.

    Pgdat has similar feature.  When a section has pgdat area, it must be the last
    section for removing on the node.  So, if section A has pgdat and section B
    has usemap for section A, Both sections can't be removed due to dependency
    each other.

    To solve this issue, this patch collects usemap on same section with pgdat.
    If other sections doesn't have any dependency, this section will be able to be
    removed finally.

3a902c5f68 mm: fix warning on memory offline
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki found a warning message in the buffer dirtying code that
is coming from page migration caller.

WARNING: at fs/buffer.c:720 __set_page_dirty+0x330/0x360()
Call Trace:
 [<a000000100015220>] show_stack+0x80/0xa0

 [<a000000100195eb0>] migrate_pages+0x770/0xe00

What was happening is that migrate_page_copy wants to transfer the PG_dirty
bit from old page to new page, so what it would do is set_page_dirty(newpage).
However set_page_dirty() is used to set the entire page dirty, wheras in
this case, only part of the page was dirty, and it also was not uptodate.

Marking the whole page dirty with set_page_dirty would lead to corruption or
unresolvable conditions -- a dirty && !uptodate page and dirty && !uptodate
buffers.

Possibly we could just ClearPageDirty(oldpage); SetPageDirty(newpage);
however in the interests of keeping the change minimal...

d7853d1f89 brd: modify ramdisk device to be able to manage partitions
This patch adds partition management for Block RAM Device (BRD).

This patch is done to keep in sync BRD and loop device drivers.

This patch adds a parameter to the module, max_part, to specify
the maximum number of partitions per RAM device.

Example:

# modprobe brd max_part=63
# ls -l /dev/ram*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,   0 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,  64 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 640 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram10

3ac7fe5a4a infrastructure to debug (dynamic) objects
We can see an ever repeating problem pattern with objects of any kind in the
kernel:

1) freeing of active objects
2) reinitialization of active objects

Both problems can be hard to debug because the crash happens at a point where
we have no chance to decode the root cause anymore.  One problem spot are
kernel timers, where the detection of the problem often happens in interrupt
context and usually causes the machine to panic.

While working on a timer related bug report I had to hack specialized code
into the timer subsystem to get a reasonable hint for the root cause.  This
debug hack was fine for temporary use, but far from a mergeable solution due
to the intrusiveness into the timer code.

The code further lacked the ability to detect and report the root cause
instantly and keep the system operational.

Keeping the system operational is important to get hold of the debug
information without special debugging aids like serial consoles and special
knowledge of the bug reporter.

The problems described above are not restricted to timers, but timers tend to
expose it usually in a full system crash.  Other objects are less explosive,
but the symptoms caused by such mistakes can be even harder to debug.

Instead of creating specialized debugging code for the timer subsystem a
generic infrastructure is created which allows developers to verify their code
and provides an easy to enable debug facility for users in case of trouble.

The debugobjects core code keeps track of operations on static and dynamic
objects by inserting them into a hashed list and sanity checking them on
object operations and provides additional checks whenever kernel memory is
freed.

The tracked object operations are:
- initializing an object
- adding an object to a subsystem list
- deleting an object from a subsystem list

Each operation is sanity checked before the operation is executed and the
subsystem specific code can provide a fixup function which allows to prevent
the damage of the operation.  When the sanity check triggers a warning message
and a stack trace is printed.

The list of operations can be extended if the need arises.  For now it's
limited to the requirements of the first user (timers).

The core code enqueues the objects into hash buckets.  The hash index is
generated from the address of the object to simplify the lookup for the check
on kfree/vfree.  Each bucket has it's own spinlock to avoid contention on a
global lock.

The debug code can be compiled in without being active.  The runtime overhead
is minimal and could be optimized by asm alternatives.  A kernel command line
option enables the debugging code.

Thanks to Ingo Molnar for review, suggestions and cleanup patches.

This is a preperatory patch for the debugobjects infrastructure.  The flag
prevents debug_free checks on kmem_caches.  This is necessary to avoid
resursive calls into a debug mechanism which uses a kmem_cache itself.

Use kmem_cache_zalloc(), remove large amounts of initialisation code and
ifdeffery.

Note: this assumes that memset(*atomic_t, 0) correctly initialises the
atomic_t.  This is true for all present archtiectures and if it becomes false
for a future architecture then we'll need to make large changes all over the
place anyway.
