Make GDT page aligned and page padded to support running inside of a
hypervisor. This prevents false sharing of the GDT page with other hot
data, which is not allowed in Xen, and causes performance problems in
VMware.
Rather than go back to the old method of statically allocating the GDT
(which wastes unneded space for non-present CPUs), the GDT for APs is
allocated dynamically.

Before this patch we were just using the "classic" /dev/ttySx devices.
However when another on the system is loaded that uses those (like drivers for
serial PCMCIA), that creates a conflict for the minors. Therefore, we now use
/dev/ttyPSC[0:5] (note the 0-based numbering !) with some minors we've been
assigned in the "Low Density Serial port major"

Janos Haar of First NetCenter Bt. reported numerous crashes involving the
NBD driver. With his help, this was tracked down to bogus bio vectors
which in turn was the result of a race condition between the
receive/transmit routines in the NBD driver.
The bug manifests itself like this:
CPU0 CPU1
do_nbd_request
add req to queuelist
nbd_send_request
send req head
for each bio
kmap
send
nbd_read_stat
nbd_find_request
nbd_end_request
kunmap
When CPU1 finishes nbd_end_request, the request and all its associated
bio's are freed. So when CPU0 calls kunmap whose argument is derived from
the last bio, it may crash.
Under normal circumstances, the race occurs only on the last bio. However,
if an error is encountered on the remote NBD server (such as an incorrect
magic number in the request), or if there were a bug in the server, it is
possible for the nbd_end_request to occur any time after the request's
addition to the queuelist.
The following patch fixes this problem by making sure that requests are not
added to the queuelist until after they have been completed transmission.
In order for the receiving side to be ready for responses involving
requests still being transmitted, the patch introduces the concept of the
active request.
When a response matches the current active request, its processing is
delayed until after the tranmission has come to a stop.
This has been tested by Janos and it has been successful in curing this
race condition.

Some PCMCIA sockets have statically mapped memory windows, but dynamically
mapped IO windows. Using the "nonstatic" socket library is inpractical for
them, as they do neither need a resource database (as we can trust the
kernel resource database on m68k and ppc) nor lots of other features of that
library. Let them get a small "iodyn" socket library (105 lines of code)
instead.

Unify the EVENT_CARD_INSERTION and "attach" callbacks to one unified
probe() callback. As all in-kernel drivers are changed to this new
callback, there will be no temporary backwards-compatibility. Inside a
probe() function, each driver _must_ set struct pcmcia_device
*p_dev->instance and instance->handle correctly.
With these patches, the basic driver interface for 16-bit PCMCIA drivers
now has the classic four callbacks known also from other buses:
int (*probe) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
void (*remove) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
int (*suspend) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);
int (*resume) (struct pcmcia_device *dev);

I have recently been switching from using 2.4.32 on my trusty
old Sparc Blade 100 to using 2.6.15 . Some of the problems I ran into
were distorted video when the console was active (missing first
character, skipped dots) and when running X windows (colored snow,
stripes, missing pixels). A quick examination of the 2.6 versus 2.4
source for the ATY driver revealed alot of changes.
A closer look at the code/data for the 64GR/XL chip revealed
two minor "typos" that the rewriter(s) of the code made. The first is
a incorrect clock value (230 .vs. 235) and the second is a missing
flag (M64F_SDRAM_MAGIC_PLL). Making both these changes seems to have
fixed my problem. I tend to think the 235 value is the correct one,
as there is a 29.4 Mhz clock crystal close to the video chip and 235.2
(29.4*8) is too close to 235 to make it a coincidence.
The flag for M64F_SDRAM_MAGIC_PLL was dropped during the
changes made by adaplas in file revision 1.72 on the old bitkeeper
repository.
The change relating to the clock rate has been there forever,
at least in the 2.6 tree. I'm not sure where to look for the old 2.5
tree or if anyone cares when it happened.
On SPARC Blades 100's, which use the ATY MACH64GR video chipset, the
clock crystal frequency is 235.2 Mhz, not 230 Mhz. The chipset also
requires the use of M64F_SDRAM_MAGIC_PLL in order to setup the PLL
properly for the DRAM.

Here's the patch for modalias support for input classes. It uses
comma-separated numbers, and doesn't describe all the potential keys (no
module currently cares, and that would make the strings huge). The
changes to input.h are to move the definitions needed by file2alias
outside __KERNEL__. I chose not to move those definitions to
mod_devicetable.h, because there are so many that it might break compile
of something else in the kernel.
The rest is fairly straightforward.
