libata: Add another column to the ata_timing table.
The forthcoming OCTEON SOC Compact Flash driver needs an additional
timing value that was not available in the ata_timing table. I add a
new column for dmack_hold time. The values were obtained from the
Compact Flash specification Rev 4.1.

Restart the request queue early for REQ_TYPE_PM_RESUME requests
(though there is only one resume request for the whole resume
sequence it stays in the queue until is fully completed and now
depends on kblockd for processing consequential resume states).

This assertion is incorrect for lockless pagecache. By definition if we
have an unpinned page that we are trying to take a speculative reference
to, it may become the tail of a compound page at any time (if it is
freed, then reallocated as a compound page).
It was still a valid assertion for the vmscan.c LRU isolation case, but
it doesn't seem incredibly helpful... if somebody wants it, they can
put it back directly where it applies in the vmscan code.

Fix timeouts in sys_pselect7
Since we (Analog Devices) updated our Blackfin kernel to 2.6.28, we've
seen occasional 5-second hangs from telnet. telnetd calls select with a
NULL timeout, but with the new kernel, the system call occasionally
returns 0, which causes telnet to call sleep (5). This did not happen
with earlier kernels.
The code in sys_pselect7 looks a bit strange, in particular the variable
"to" is initialized to NULL, then changed if a non-null timeout was
passed in, but not used further. It needs to be passed to
core_sys_select instead of &end_time.
This bug was introduced by

fix early_serial_setup() regression
Commit
b430428a188e8a434325e251d0704af4b88b4711 ("8250: Don't clobber
spinlocks.") introduced a regression on the parisc architecture, which
broke the handover to the serial port at boottime.
early_serial_setup() was changed to only copy a subset of the uart_port
fields, and sadly the "type" and "line" fields were forgotten and thus
the serial port was not initialized and could not be used for a
handover. This patch fixes this by copying the missing fields.
As this change to early_serial_setup() doesn't need an initialized
spinlock in the uart_port struct any longer, we can drop the spinlock
initialization in the superio driver.

x86 PAT: return compatible mapping to remap_pfn_range callers
Impact: avoid warning message, potentially solve 3D performance regression
Change x86 PAT code to return compatible memtype if the exact memtype that
was requested in remap_pfn_rage and friends is not available due to some
conflict.
This is done by returning the compatible type in pgprot parameter of
track_pfn_vma_new(), and the caller uses that memtype for page table.
Note that track_pfn_vma_copy() which is basically called during fork gets the
prot from existing page table and should not have any conflict. Hence we use
strict memtype check there and do not allow compatible memtypes.

Prevent oops at boot with VT-d
With some broken BIOSs when VT-d is enabled, the data structures are
filled incorrectly. This can cause a NULL pointer dereference in very
early boot.

powerpc/powermac: Fix occasional SMP boot failure
The PowerMac kernel occasionally fails to bring up the secondary CPUs on
SMP, the trigger factor seem to be fairly random and related to location
of code and data.
This appears to be due to the initial loading of the TOC value by the
secondary processor which now happens before we clear HID4:RM_CI (Real
Mode Cache Invalidate). This bit should really be cleared before we do
any load or store other than fetching code.
This fix works based on the assumption that all SMP 64-bit PowerMacs use
variants of the 970, which fortunately is true, by explicitely clearing
that bit, adding an slbia for good measure as RM_CI mode is known to
create bogus ERAT entries.
I also removed some spurrious debug output that was left enabled by
mistake while at it.

hvc_console: Do not set low_latency when using interrupts
hvc_console is setting low_latency unconditionally, but some clients are
interrupt driven and will call hvc_poll from irq context. This will cause
tty_flip_buffer_push to be called from irq context, and it very clearly
states it must not be called from IRQ when low_latency is specified.

32-bit clean too.

Also, default to the previous KDUMP_KERNELBASE if the start is 0.
Other architectures (x86, ia64) state that specifying the start address
0 (or omitting it) will result in the kernel allocating it. Before the
