Michael Ellerman 33dbcf72f6 [POWERPC] Make sure smp_processor_id works very early in boot
There's a small period early in boot where we don't know which cpu we're
running on. That's ok, except that it means we have no paca, or more
correctly that our paca pointer points somewhere random.

So that we can safely call things like smp_processor_id(), we need a paca,
so just assume we're on cpu 0. No code should _write_ to the paca before
we've set the correct one up.

We setup the proper paca after we've scanned the flat device tree in
early_setup(), so there's no need to do it again in start_here_common.

The todc code from arch/ppc supports many todc/rtc chips and is needed
in arch/powerpc.  This patch adds the todc code to arch/powerpc.

Paul Mackerras 1729dc7833 [POWERPC] Correct the MAX_CONTEXT definition
When we increased the address space per process to 2^44 bytes, the
number of contexts that we could actually use reduced, but we forgot
to decrease the MAX_CONTEXT definition.  (Fortunately this would only
cause problems if we actually had more than 512k user processes
running.)  This patch corrects the definition.

Linus Torvalds 0a6047eef1 Fix vsnprintf off-by-one bug
The recent vsnprintf() fix introduced an off-by-one, and it's now
possible to overrun the target buffer by one byte.

The "end" pointer points to past the end of the buffer, so if we
have to truncate the result, it needs to be done though "end[-1]".

[ This is just an alternate and simpler patch to one proposed by Andrew
  and Jeremy, who actually noticed the problem ]

David Brownell 980a01c9bf [PATCH] SPI: infrastructure to initialize spi_device.mode early
This patch adds earlier initialization of spi_device.mode, as needed
on boards using nondefault chipselect polarity.  An example would be
ones using the RS5C348 RTC without an external signal inverter between
the RTC chipselect and the SPI controller.

Without this mechanism, the first setup() call for that chip would
wrongly enable chips, corrupting transfers to/from other chips sharing
that SPI bus.

Paul Fulghum 33b37a33c2 [PATCH] remove active field from tty buffer structure
Remove 'active' field from tty buffer structure.  This was added in 2.6.16
as part of a patch to make the new tty buffering SMP safe.  This field is
unnecessary with the more intelligently written flush_to_ldisc that adds
receive_room handling.

Removing this field reverts to simpler logic where the tail buffer is
always the 'active' buffer, which should not be freed by flush_to_ldisc.
(active == buffer being filled with new data)

The result is simpler, smaller, and faster tty buffer code.

Paul Fulghum 2c3bb20f46 [PATCH] add receive_room flow control to flush_to_ldisc
Flush data serially to line discipline in blocks no larger than
tty->receive_room to avoid losing data if line discipline is busy (such as
N_TTY operating at high speed on heavily loaded system) or does not accept
data in large blocks (such as N_MOUSE).
