2010-08-02V4L/DVB: dvb: add support for kworld 340u and ub435-q to em28xx-dvbJarod Wilson
This adds support for the KWorld PlusTV 340U and KWorld UB345-Q ATSC sticks, which are really the same device. The sticks have an eMPIA em2870 usb bridge chipset, an LG Electronics LGDT3304 ATSC/QAM demodulator and an NXP TDA18271HD tuner -- early versions of the 340U have a a TDA18271HD/C1, later models and the UB435-Q have a C2. The stick has been tested succesfully with both VSB_8 and QAM_256 signals. Its using lgdt3304 support added to the lgdt3305 driver by a prior patch, rather than the current lgdt3304 driver, as its severely lacking in functionality by comparison (see said patch for details).

2010-08-01KVM: MMU: Don't allocate gfns page for direct mmu pagesLai Jiangshan
When sp->role.direct is set, sp->gfns does not contain any essential information, leaf sptes reachable from this sp are for a continuous guest physical memory range (a linear range). So sp->gfns[i] (if it was set) equals to sp->gfn + i. (PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL) Obviously, it is not essential information, we can calculate it when need. It means we don't need sp->gfns when sp->role.direct=1, Thus we can save one page usage for every kvm_mmu_page. Note: Access to sp->gfns must be wrapped by kvm_mmu_page_get_gfn() or kvm_mmu_page_set_gfn(). It is only exposed in FNAME(sync_page).

Conflicts: arch/arm/mm/init.c
2010-07-29CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner commentDavid Howells
Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check by removing the following validation condition: lockdep_tasklist_lock_is_held() as commit_creds() does not take the tasklist_lock, and nor do most of the functions that call it, so this check is pointless and it can prevent detection of the RCU lock not being held if the tasklist_lock is held. Instead, add the following validation condition: task->exit_state >= 0 to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore unable to change its own credentials. Fix __task_cred()'s comment to: (1) discard the bit that says that the caller must prevent the target task from being deleted. That shouldn't need saying. (2) Add a comment indicating the result of __task_cred() should not be passed directly to get_cred(), but rather than get_task_cred() should be used instead. Also put a note into the documentation to enforce this point there too. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Paul E.

2010-07-27ARM: 6225/1: make TCM allocation static and common for all archsLinus Walleij
This changes the TCM handling so that a fixed area is reserved at 0xfffe0000-0xfffeffff for TCM. This areas is used by XScale but XScale does not have TCM so the mechanisms are mutually exclusive. This change is needed to make TCM detection more dynamic while still being able to compile code into it, and is a must for the unified ARM goals: the current TCM allocation at different places in memory for each machine would be a nightmare if you want to compile a single image for more than one machine with TCM so it has to be nailed down in one place.
