Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED
handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality.
PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page.
All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged
in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount
based freeing of Reserved pages.
MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being
deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be
reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept).
Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all
arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can
be trivially removed.
Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to
determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still
needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work).
A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and
thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct
page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a
number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

The dev_kfree_skb in islpci_eth_transmit happens while irqs are still
disabled, so either dev_kfree_skb_irq needs to be used or the skb
needs to be freed after irqs have been enabled again. This patch
should fix it.

This one from my DMA_{32,64}BIT_MASK series did not seem to make it
through to upstream.
Use the DMA_{32,64}BIT_MASK constants from dma-mapping.h when calling
pci_set_dma_mask() or pci_set_consistent_dma_mask()
This patch includes dma-mapping.h explicitly because it caused errors
on some architectures otherwise.

We want ->tf_read() to get a complete snapshot of all taskfile
registers, without requiring the callers to manually call
ata_chk_status() and ata_chk_err() themselves.
This also fixes a minor bug in sata_vsc where the lower bits of the
feature register were incorrectly placed in the HOB (high order bits)
portion of struct ata_taskfile.
switched to simple_read_from_buffer(), killed broken use of min().
Incidentally, that use of min() had been fixed once, only to be
reintroduced in commit 4244f72436:

- if (count > IMGSIZE - *ppos)
- count = IMGSIZE - *ppos;

Note the lovely use of cast to shut the warning about misuse of min()
up...

as-iosched deals with aliased requests differently from other ioscheds.
It links together aliased requests using rq->queuelist instead of
spilling alises to dispatch queue like other ioscheds do. Requests
linked in this way cannot be merged.
Unfortunately, generic q->last_merge handling patch didn't take this
into account and q->last_merge could be set to an aliased request
resulting in Badness, corrupt list and eventually panic.
This explicitly marks aliased requests to be unmergeable.
