[PATCH] NFS: Fix lookup intent handling
We should never apply a lookup intent to anything other than the last
path component in an open(), create() or access() call.
Introduce the helper nfs_lookup_check_intent() which always returns
zero if LOOKUP_CONTINUE or LOOKUP_PARENT are set, and returns the
intent flags if we're on the last component of the lookup.
By doing so, we fix a bug in open(O_EXCL), where we may end up
optimizing away a real lookup of the parent directory.

[PATCH] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0).
[AGPGART] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0).
As mentioned earlier, the current check_bridge_mode() code assumes
that AGP bridges are PCI devices. This isn't always true. Definitely
not for HP zx1 chipset and the same seems to be the case for SGI's AGP
bridge.
The patch below fixes the problem by picking up the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit
from bridge->mode. I feel like I may be missing something, since I
can't see any reason why check_bridge_mode() wasn't doing that in the
first place. According to the AGP 3.0 specs, the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit is
determined during the hardware reset and cannot be changed, so it
seems to me it should be safe to pick it up from bridge->mode.
With the patch applied, I can definitely use AGP acceleration both
with AGP 2.0 and AGP 3.0 (one with an Nvidia card, the other with an
ATI FireGL card).
Unless someone spots a problem, please apply this patch so 3d
acceleration can work on zx1 boxes again.
This makes AGP work again on machines with an AGP bridge that isn't a
PCI device.

[PATCH] AGP fix for Xen VMM
When Linux is running on the Xen virtual machine monitor, physical
addresses are virtualised and cannot be directly referenced by the AGP
GART. This patch fixes the GART driver for Xen by adding a layer of
abstraction between physical addresses and 'GART addresses'.
Architecture-specific functions are also defined for allocating and freeing
the GATT. Xen requires this to ensure that table really is contiguous from
the point of view of the GART.
These extra interface functions are defined as 'no-ops' for all existing
architectures that use the GART driver.

I'm splitting that series into _very_ small chunks.
Patches alread in the tree close only (very wide) races in following symlinks
(see "busy inodes after umount" thread some time ago). Unfortunately, quite a
few narrower races of the same nature were not closed. Hopefully this should
take care of all of them.

[PATCH] ppc32: Fix incorrect CPU_FTR fixup usage for unified caches
Runtime feature support for unified caches was testing a userland feature
flag (PPC_FEATURE_UNIFIED_CACHE) instead of a cpu feature flag
(CPU_FTR_SPLIT_ID_CACHE). Luckily the current defined bit mask for cpu
features and userland features do not overlap so this only causes an issue
on machines with a unified cache, which is extremely rare on PPC today.

[PATCH] s390: deadlock in appldata
The system might hang when using appldata_mem with high I/O traffic and a
large number of devices. The spinlocks bdev_lock and swaplock are acquired
via calls to si_meminfo() and si_swapinfo() from a tasklet, i.e. interrupt
context, which can lead to a deadlock. Replace tasklet with work queue.

[PATCH] s390: in_interrupt vs. in_atomic
The condition for no context in do_exception checks for hard and soft
interrupts by using in_interrupt() but not for preemption. This is bad for
the users of __copy_from/to_user_inatomic because the fault handler might call
schedule although the preemption count is != 0. Use in_atomic() instead
in_interrupt().

[PATCH] s390: uml ptrace fixes
To make UML build and run on s390, I needed to do these two little
changes:
1) UML includes some of the subarch's (s390) headers. I had to
change one of them with the following one-liner, to make this
compile. AFAICS, this change doesn't break compilation of s390
itself.
2) UML needs to intercept syscalls via ptrace to invalidate the syscall,
read syscall's parameters and write the result with the result of
UML's syscall processing. Also, UML needs to make sure, that the host
does no syscall restart processing. On i386 for example, this can be
done by writing -1 to orig_eax on the 2nd syscall interception
(orig_eax is the syscall number, which after the interception is used
as a "interrupt was a syscall" flag only.
Unfortunately, s390 holds syscall number and syscall result in gpr2 and
its "interrupt was a syscall" flag (trap) is unreachable via ptrace.
So I changed the host to set trap to -1, if the syscall number is changed
to an invalid value on the first syscall interception.

[PATCH] s390: ptrace peek and poke
The special cases of peek and poke on acrs[15] and the fpc register are not
handled correctly. A poke on acrs[15] will clobber the 4 bytes after the
access registers in the thread_info structure. That happens to be the kernel
stack pointer. A poke on the fpc with an invalid value is not caught by the
validity check. On the next context switch the broken fpc value will cause a
program check in the kernel. Improving the checks in peek and poke fixes
this.

[PATCH] mpage_end_io_write() I/O error handling fix
When fsync() runs wait_on_page_writeback_range() it only inspects pages which
are actually under I/O (PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK). If a page completed I/O
prior to wait_on_page_writeback_range() looking at it, it is supposed to have
