71e27da961 [IPV4]: Restore old behaviour of default config values
Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added
(or rarely in ipmr).  Therefore the default config values they get are
the ones at the time of these operations.

Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the
behaviour of default config values in an incompatible way (see bug
#8519).

This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the
same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly
set by the user since the inet device's creation.

31be308541 [IPV4]: Add default config support after inetdev_init
Previously once inetdev_init has been called on a device any changes
made to ipv4_devconf_dflt would have no effect on that device's
configuration.

This creates a problem since we have moved the point where
inetdev_init is called from when an address is added to where the
device is registered.

This patch is the first half of a set that tries to mimic the old
behaviour while still calling inetdev_init.

It propagates any changes to ipv4_devconf_dflt to those devices that
have not had the corresponding attribute set.

The next patch will forcibly set all values at the point where
inetdev_init was previously called.

8d76527e72 [IPV4]: Only panic if inetdev_init fails for loopback
When I made the inetdev_init call work on all devices I incorrectly
left in the panic call as well.  It is obviously undesirable to
panic on an allocation failure for a normal network device.  This
patch moves the panic call under the loopback if clause.

02537b0676 [BNX2]: Fix occasional counter corruption on 5708.
The statistics block DMA on 5708 can be messed up occasionally on the
average of about once per hour.  If the user is reading the counters
within one second after the corruption, the counters will be all
messed up.  One second later, the counters will be ok again until the
next corruption occurs.

The workaround is to disable the periodic statistics DMA.  Instead,
we manually trigger the DMA once a second in bnx2_timer().  This
manual trigger of the DMA avoids the problem.

As a consequence, we can only allow 0 or 1 second settings for
ethtool -C statistics block.

Thanks to Jean-Daniel Pauget <jd@disjunkt.com> and
CaT <cat@zip.com.au> for reporting this rare problem.

memory on the 5708.  Surprisingly, this works most of the time except
for some occasional netdev watchdogs when sending a lot of 64-byte

b74d0deb96 Restrict clearing TIF_SIGPENDING
This patch should get a few birds.  It prevents sigaction calls from
clearing TIF_SIGPENDING in other threads, which could leak -ERESTART*.
And It fixes ptrace_stop not to clear it, which done at the syscall exit
stop could leak -ERESTART*.  It probably removes the harm from signalfd,
at least assuming it never calls dequeue_signal on kernel threads that
might have used block_all_signals.

We had a problem on a system with only dynamically allocated
PCI buses (using of_pci_phb_driver) in combination with libata.

bb5db29aa0 [POWERPC] spufs scheduler: Fix wakeup races
Fix the race between checking for contexts on the runqueue and actually
waking them in spu_deactive and spu_yield.

The guts of spu_reschedule are split into a new helper called
grab_runnable_context which shows if there is a runnable thread below
a specified priority and if yes removes if from the runqueue and uses
it.  This function is used by the new __spu_deactivate hepler shared
by preemption and spu_yield to grab a new context before deactivating
a specified priority and if yes removes if from the runqueue and uses
it.  This function is used by the new __spu_deactivate hepler shared
by preemption and spu_yield to grab a new context before deactivating
the old one.

eff3414b72 [SPARC64]: Move topology init code into new file, sysfs.c
Also, use per-cpu data for struct cpu.  Calling kmalloc for
each cpu in topology_init() is just plain clumsy.

464cf177df libata: always use polling SETXFER
Several people have reported LITE-ON LTR-48246S detection failed
because SETXFER fails.  It seems the device raises IRQ too early after
SETXFER.  This is controller independent.  The same problem has been
reported for different controllers.

So, now we have pata_via where the controller raises IRQ before it's
ready after SETXFER and a device which does similar thing.  This patch
makes libata always execute SETXFER via polling.  As this only happens
during EH, performance impact is nil.  Setting ATA_TFLAG_POLLING is
also moved from issue hot path to ata_dev_set_xfermode() - the only
place where SETXFER can be issued.

Note that ATA_TFLAG_POLLING applies only to drivers which implement
SFF TF interface and use libata HSM.  More advanced controllers ignore
the flag.  This doesn't matter for this fix as SFF TF controllers are
the problematic ones.
