viafb: get rid of the remaining modetable structure assumptions
This patch removes the remaining places where assumptions about the
structure of the modetable were made. Aside from some places where
assumptions are made that certain modes are in the modetable the
only code dealing with the modetable and not just a single mode is
in viamode. This will allow chaniging the modetable and use other
sources for videomodes like the subsystem or EDID.

viafb: eliminate modetable dependancy of LCD modesetting
This patch removes the need for knowing the modetable structure
within the LCD modesetting function. The magic 60Hz refresh rate was
already there as always the first entry for a resolution was choosen
based on the ascending refresh rate ordering in the modetable.
For all but one this is at least 60Hz, if only higher frequencies
available we choose those like the code before did. The exception is
OLPC but that resolution has only one frequency so we get the same
behaviour there as well.

viafb: use information in var for modesetting
This patch starts to use the information in var for modesetting for
CRT and DVI devices. This is the right thing as it allows us to use
more generic modes than the ones predefined by VIA. We do not yet
allow more generic modes as check_var still limits them to the
predefined ones but with this patch applied it would be really easy
to do so. A problem was VIAs SAMM mode as it has 2 different modes
but just one frame buffer device. This is solved by creating a
pseudo var which contains enough information to use it for
modesetting. Hopefully one day we can use information in var for all
modes that do not involve hardware scaling.
Well I'd like to say that the chance of regressions is low but it is
quite likely that the behaviour in some cases changed especially
when SAMM is involved. I hope we made it better than before in
particular the DVI frequency check was probably broken before and
hopefully works better now.

ACPI: Fix build for CONFIG_NET unset
Several ACPI drivers fail to build if CONFIG_NET is unset, because
they refer to things depending on CONFIG_THERMAL that in turn depends

on CONFIG_NET, because the only part of it requiring CONFIG_NET is
the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c.
Put the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c under #ifdef CONFIG_NET

mm: vmscan: stop reclaim/compaction earlier due to insufficient progress if !__GFP_REPEAT
should_continue_reclaim() for reclaim/compaction allows scanning to
continue even if pages are not being reclaimed until the full list is
scanned. In terms of allocation success, this makes sense but potentially
it introduces unwanted latency for high-order allocations such as
transparent hugepages and network jumbo frames that would prefer to fail
the allocation attempt and fallback to order-0 pages. Worse, there is a
potential that the full LRU scan will clear all the young bits, distort
page aging information and potentially push pages into swap that would
have otherwise remained resident.
This patch will stop reclaim/compaction if no pages were reclaimed in the
last SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages that were considered. For allocations such as
hugetlbfs that use __GFP_REPEAT and have fewer fallback options, the full
LRU list may still be scanned.
Order-0 allocation should not be affected because RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION
is not set so the following avoids the gfp_mask being examined:
if (!(sc->reclaim_mode & RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION))
return false;
A tool was developed based on ftrace that tracked the latency of
high-order allocations while transparent hugepage support was enabled and
three benchmarks were run. The "fix-infinite" figures are 2.6.38-rc4 with
Johannes's patch "vmscan: fix zone shrinking exit when scan work is done"
applied.

Mean time for order-1 allocations is reduced. order-2 looks increased but
with so few allocations, it's not particularly significant. THP mean
allocation latency is also reduced. That said, allocation time varies so
significantly that the reductions are within noise.
Max allocation time is reduced by a significant amount for low-order
allocations but reduced for THP allocations which presumably are now
breaking before reclaim has done enough work.

Again, mean time for order-1 allocations is reduced while order-2
allocations are too few to draw conclusions from. The mean time for THP
allocations is also slightly reduced albeit the reductions are within
varianes.
Once again, our maximum allocation time is significantly reduced for
low-order allocations and slightly increased for THP allocations.

This benchmark creates one thread per CPU which references an amount of
anonymous memory 1.5 times the size of physical RAM. This pounds swap
quite heavily and is intended to exercise THP a bit.
Mean allocation time for order-1 is reduced as before. It's also reduced
for THP allocations but the variations here are pretty massive due to
swap. As before, maximum allocation times are significantly reduced.
Overall, the patch reduces the mean and maximum allocation latencies for
the smaller high-order allocations. This was with Slab configured so it
would be expected to be more significant with Slub which uses these size
allocations more aggressively.
The mean allocation times for THP allocations are also slightly reduced.
The maximum latency was slightly increased as predicted by the comments
due to reclaim/compaction breaking early. However, workloads care more
about the latency of lower-order allocations than THP so it's an
acceptable trade-off.

drivers/nfc/pn544.c: add missing regulator
The regulator framework is used for power management. The regulators are
only named in the driver code, the actual control stuff is in the board
file for each architecture or use case.
The PN544 chip has three regulators that can be controlled or not -
depending on the architecture where the chip is being used. So some of
the regulators may not be controllable. In our current case the third
regulator, which was missing from the code, went unnoticed because we
didn't need to control it. To be as general as possible - in this respect
- the driver needs to list all regulators. Then the board file can be
used to actually set the usage.

swiotlb: fix wrong panic
swiotlb's map_page wrongly calls panic() when it can't find a buffer fit

Devices with an odd dma mask (i.e. under 4G) like b44 network card hit
this bug (the system crashes):

mm: grab rcu read lock in move_pages()
The move_pages() usage of find_task_by_vpid() requires rcu_read_lock() to
prevent free_pid() from reclaiming the pid.
Without this patch, RCU warnings are printed in v2.6.38-rc4 move_pages()
with:
CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=y
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y

Previously, migrate_pages() went through a similar transformation
replacing usage of tasklist_lock with rcu read lock:

epoll: prevent creating circular epoll structures
In several places, an epoll fd can call another file's ->f_op->poll()
method with ep->mtx held. This is in general unsafe, because that other
file could itself be an epoll fd that contains the original epoll fd.
The code defends against this possibility in its own ->poll() method using
ep_call_nested, but there are several other unsafe calls to ->poll
elsewhere that can be made to deadlock. For example, the following simple
program causes the call in ep_insert recursively call the original fd's
->poll, leading to deadlock:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/epoll.h>
int main(void) {
int e1, e2, p[2];
struct epoll_event evt = {
.events = EPOLLIN
};
e1 = epoll_create(1);
e2 = epoll_create(2);
pipe(p);
epoll_ctl(e2, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e1, &evt);
epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, p[0], &evt);
write(p[1], p, sizeof p);
epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2, &evt);
return 0;
}
On insertion, check whether the inserted file is itself a struct epoll,
and if so, do a recursive walk to detect whether inserting this file would
create a loop of epoll structures, which could lead to deadlock.
