Performance counters need 64 bit atomic operations.
To keep the patch small we use the simple generic atomic64_t implementation.
The native implementation follows with the next kernel.

Fixes this build bug:

Our udelay implementation enables interrupts to receive a special timer
interrupt regardless of the context it is called from.
This might lead to false positive lockdep reports. Since lockdep isn't
aware of the fact that only a single interrupt source is enabled it
warns about possible deadlocks that in reality won't happen, like
the one below.
To fix this disable lockdep before enabling interrupts.

Correct the CLKVAL_F field value of VIDEO MAIN CONTROLLER 0 REGITSTER.

Frame Rate is 1 / [ { (VSPW+1) + (VBPD+1) + (LIINEVAL + 1) + (VFPD+1)
} x {(HSPW+1) + (HBPD +1)
+ (HFPD+1) + (HOZVAL + 1) } x { ( CLKVAL+1 ) / ( Frequency of Clock
source ) } ] and VCLK = Video Clock Source / (CLKVAL +1).

therefore CLKVAL_F should be "CLKVAL_F = Frequency of Clock source / pixel
clock * refresh".

for this, I added refresh value in platform data like below.

static struct s3c_fb_pd_win xxx_fb_win0 = {
	/* this is to ensure we use win0 */
	.win_mode = {
		.refresh	= 60,
		.pixclock	= (66+4+2+480)*(15+5+3+800),
		.left_margin	= 66,
		.right_margin	= 2,
		.upper_margin	= 15,
		.lower_margin	= 3,
		.hsync_len	= 4,
		.vsync_len	= 5,
		.xres		= 480,
		.yres		= 800,
	},
	.max_bpp	= 32,
	.default_bpp	= 24,
};

static struct s3c_fb_platdata xxx_lcd_pdata __initdata = {
	.win[0]		= &xxx_fb_win0,
	.vidcon0	= VIDCON0_VIDOUT_RGB | VIDCON0_PNRMODE_RGB,
	.vidcon1	= VIDCON1_INV_HSYNC | VIDCON1_INV_VSYNC

	.setup_gpio	= s5pc1xx_fb_gpio_setup_24bpp,
};

xxx_machine_init()
{
                   .

                   .
               s3c_fb_set_platdata(&xxx_lcd_pdata);
}

platform data defined in machine code should be setting using

In testing a backport of the write_begin/write_end AOPs, a 10% re-read
regression was noticed when running iozone.  This regression was
introduced because the old AOPs would always do a mark_page_accessed(page)
after the commit_write, but when the new AOPs where introduced, the only
place this was kept was in pagecache_write_end().

This patch does the same thing in the generic case as what is done in
pagecache_write_end(), which is just to mark the page accessed before we
do write_end().

Fix the multithread program core thread message error.

This issue affects arches with neither has CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET nor
ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS, ARM is one of them.

The thread message of core file is generated in elf_dump_thread_status.
The register values is set by elf_core_copy_task_regs in this function.

If an arch doesn't define ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS,
elf_core_copy_task_regs() will do nothing.  Then the core file will not
have the register message of thread.

So add elf_core_copy_regs to set regiser values if ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS
doesn't define.

The following is how to reproduce this issue:

cat 1.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <assert.h>

void td1(void * i)
{
       while (1)
       {
               printf ("1\n");
               sleep (1);
       }

       return;
}

void td2(void * i)
{
       while (1)
       {
               printf ("2\n");
               sleep (1);
       }

       return;
}

int
main(int argc,char *argv[],char *envp[])
{
       pthread_t       t1,t2;

       pthread_create(&t1, NULL, (void*)td1, NULL);
       pthread_create(&t2, NULL, (void*)td2, NULL);

       sleep (10);

       assert(0);

       return (0);
}
arm-xxx-gcc -g -lpthread 1.c -o 1
copy 1.c and 1 to a arm board.
Goto this board.
ulimit -c 1800000
./1
# ./1
1
2
1
...
...
1
1: 1.c:37: main: Assertion `0' failed.

Then you can get a core file.
gdb 1 core.xxx
Without the patch:
(gdb) info threads
 3 process 909  0x00000000 in ?? ()
 2 process 908  0x00000000 in ?? ()
* 1 process 907  0x4a6e2238 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6
You can found that the pc of 909 and 908 is 0x00000000.
With the patch:
(gdb) info threads
 3 process 885  0x4a749974 in nanosleep () from /lib/libc.so.6
 2 process 884  0x4a749974 in nanosleep () from /lib/libc.so.6
* 1 process 883  0x4a6e2238 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6
The pc of 885 and 884 is right.

I run many ffsb test cases on JBODs (typically 13/12 disks).  Comparing
with kernel 2.6.30, 2.6.31-rc1 has about 16% regression with
ffsb_create_4k.  The sub test case creates files continuously for 10
minitues and every file is 1MB.

    vfs: Make sys_sync() use fsync_super() (version 4)

    It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync())
    doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to
    accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch
    __fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to
    properly send all data on a filesystem to disk.

As a matter of fact, ffsb calls sys_sync in the end to make sure all data
is flushed to disks and the flushing is counted into the result.  vmstat
shows ffsb is blocked when syncing for a long time.  With 2.6.30, ffsb is
blocked for a short time.

I checked the patch and did experiments to recover the original methods.
Eventually, the root cause is the patch deletes the calling to
wakeup_pdflush when syncing, so only ffsb is blocked on disk I/O.
wakeup_pdflush could ask pdflush to write back pages with ffsb at the
same time.

This reverts commit a1091aae.

Commit 'net: Move rx skb_orphan call to where needed' broken sctp protocol
with warning at inet_sock_destruct(). Actually, sctp can do this right with
sctp_sock_rfree_frag() and sctp_skb_set_owner_r_frag() pair.

    sctp_sock_rfree_frag(skb);
    sctp_skb_set_owner_r_frag(skb, newsk);

This patch not revert the commit d55d87fd,
instead remove the sctp_sock_rfree_frag() function.
