Such an old version of BFS is not maintained and while it gave us some
noticable benefits, it is not worth dealing with the problems it could

ceb481fcd9 vfat: change the default from shortname=lower to shortname=mixed
Because, with "shortname=lower", copying one FAT filesystem tree to
another FAT filesystem tree using Linux results in semantically
different filesystems. (E.g.: Filenames which were once "all
uppercase" are now "all lowercase").

So, this changes the default of "shortname=lower" to "shortname=mixed".

bce56e48c2 Allow PHYS_OFFSET to be runtime determined
This bases on work done earlier by Lennert Buytenhek and Mark A. Greer.
Compared to their approach zreladdr isn't guessed based on the pc
register but the bootloader is expected to pass PHYS_OFFSET in r3.  If
that value doesn't look right (e.g. isn't aligned) it is guessed based
on the value of sp.  This should work for CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM, too.

To use it for your machine removing the definition of PHYS_OFFSET from
<mach/memory.h> and selecting CONFIG_RUNTIME_PHYS_OFFSET should be
enough.

2e8ca1b618 USB: usb-storage: add BAD_SENSE flag
commit a0bb108112a872c0b0c4b3ef4974f95fb75b155d upstream.

This patch (as1311) fixes a problem in usb-storage: Some devices are
pretty broken when it comes to reporting sense data.  The information
they send back indicates that they have more than 18 bytes of sense
data available, but when the system asks for more than 18 they fail or
hang.  The symptom is that probing fails with multiple resets.

The patch adds a new BAD_SENSE flag to indicate that usb-storage
should never ask for more than 18 bytes of sense data.  The flag can
be set in an unusual_devs entry or via the "quirks=" module parameter,
and it is set automatically whenever a REQUEST SENSE command for more
than 18 bytes fails or times out.

An unusual_devs entry is added for the Agfa photo frame, which uses a
Prolific chip having this bug.

360bfe0d07 ext4: make "norecovery" an alias for "noload"
(cherry picked from commit e3bb52ae2bb9573e84c17b8e3560378d13a5c798)

Users on the linux-ext4 list recently complained about differences
across filesystems w.r.t. how to mount without a journal replay.

In the discussion it was noted that xfs's "norecovery" option is
perhaps more descriptively accurate than "noload," so let's make
that an alias for ext4.

Also show this status in /proc/mounts

e1f7f4182a sparc: Kill PROM console driver.
[ Upstream commit 09d3f3f0e02c8a900d076c302c5c02227f33572d ]

Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.

Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.

If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us.  We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.

0753ba01e1 mm: revert "oom: move oom_adj value"
The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to
the mm_struct.  It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM.

However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job
scheduler.  Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process.

Why? His program has the code of similar to the following.

	...
	set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */
	...
	if (vfork() == 0) {
		set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */
		execve("foo-bar-cmd");
	}
	....

vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct.  then above
set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also
change oom_adj for vfork() parent.  Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler)
lost OOM immune and it was killed.

Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program.
We must not break this assumption.

Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

---------------------
- commit 2ff05b2b4e (oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct)
- commit 4d8b9135c3 (oom: avoid unnecessary mm locking and scanning for OOM_DISABLE)
- commit 8123681022 (oom: only oom kill exiting tasks with attached memory)
- commit 933b787b57 (mm: copy over oom_adj value at fork time)

1f6fc2de95 thinkpad-acpi: remove dock and bay subdrivers
The standard ACPI dock driver can handle the hotplug bays and docks of
the ThinkPads just fine (including batteries) as of 2.6.27, and the
code in thinkpad-acpi for the dock and bay subdrivers is currently
broken anyway...

Userspace needs some love to support the two-stage ejection nicely,
but it is simple enough to do through udev rules (you don't even need
HAL) so this wouldn't justify fixing the dock and bay subdrivers,
either.

That leaves warm-swap bays (_EJ3) support for thinkpad-acpi, as well
as support for the weird dock of the model 570, but since such support
has never left the "experimental" stage, it is also not a strong
enough reason to find a way to fix this code.

Users of ThinkPads with warm-swap bays are urged to request that _EJ3
support be added to the regular ACPI dock driver, if such feature is
indeed useful for them.

cab8bd3410 sysrq, kdump: make sysrq-c consistent
commit d6580a9f15 ("kexec: sysrq: simplify
sysrq-c handler") changed the behavior of sysrq-c to unconditional
dereference of NULL pointer.  So in cases with CONFIG_KEXEC, where
crash_kexec() was directly called from sysrq-c before, now it can be said
that a step of "real oops" was inserted before starting kdump.

However, in contrast to oops via SysRq-c from keyboard which results in
panic due to in_interrupt(), oops via "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" will
not become panic unless panic_on_oops=1.  It means that even if dump is
properly configured to be taken on panic, the sysrq-c from proc interface
might not start crashdump while the sysrq-c from keyboard can start
crashdump.  This confuses traditional users of kdump, i.e.  people who
expect sysrq-c to do common behavior in both of the keyboard and proc
interface.

This patch brings the keyboard and proc interface behavior of sysrq-c in
line, by forcing panic_on_oops=1 before oops in sysrq-c handler.

And some updates in documentation are included, to clarify that there is
no longer dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC, and that now the system can just
crash by sysrq-c if no dump mechanism is configured.

cedb8118e8 ALSA: pcm - Add logging of hwptr updates and interrupt updates
Added the logging functionality to xrun_debug to record the hwptr
updates via snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr() and snd_pcm_update_hwptr_interrupt(),
corresponding to 16 and 8, respectively.

For example,
	# echo 9 > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/xrun_debug
will record the position and other parameters at each period interrupt
together with the normal XRUN debugging.
