088186ded4 [PATCH] powerpc: Add/remove/update properties in firmware device tree
Add support for updating and removing device tree
properties.  Since we hand out pointers to properties with gay
abandon, we can't just free the property storage.  Instead we
move deleted, or the old copy of an updated property, to a
"dead properties" list.

Also note, its not feasable to kref device tree properties.
we call get_property() all over the kernel in a wild variety
of contexts.

One consequence of this change is that we now take a
read_lock(&devtree_lock) when doing get_property().

898b5395e9 [PATCH] powerpc: Add/remove/update properties in /proc/device-tree
Add support to the proc_device_tree file for removing

proc file, update changes the data pointer within
the proc file.  The remainder of the device-tree
changes occur elsewhere.

9e1c72a4e4 [PATCH] Remove bzImage target
Since the documentation no longer tells people to 'make bzImage', and
with the previous patch nothing more than 'make' is required to get the
right bootable images (just like on i386 now), this removes the bzImage
-> zImage target redirect on ARCH=powerpc

9f3f46b5fe [PATCH] via-velocity: use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM (hardware only support IPv4)
At least some versions of the via-velocity hardware only support
checksumming IPv4 frames in hardware.  However, the driver is currently
setting the NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag, which indicates support for more than
just IPv4.  This results in errors when trying to use IPv6 over
via-velocity hardware.

5af47b2ff1 [PATCH] bonding: UPDATED hash-table corruption in bond_alb.c
I believe I see the race Michael refers to (tlb_choose_channel
may set head, which tlb_init_slave clears), although I was not able to
reproduce it.  I have updated his patch for the current netdev-2.6.git
tree and added a version update.  His original comment follows:

Our systems have been crashing during testing of PCI HotPlug
support in the various networking components.  We've faulted in
the bonding driver due to a bug in bond_alb.c:tlb_clear_slave()

In that routine, the last modification to the TLB hash table is
made without protection of the lock, allowing a race that can lead
tlb_choose_channel() to select an invalid table element.

9a6301c114 [PATCH] wireless/atmel: add IWENCODEEXT, IWAUTH, and association event support
This patch allows the Atmel driver to work correctly with wpa_supplicant
and other programs that require some conformance with WEXT-18.  It
should not affect current behavior of the driver.  The patch does four
things:

1) Implements SIOCSIWENCODEEXT, SIOCGIWENCODEEXT, SIOCSIWAUTH, and
SIOCGIWAUTH calls for unencrypted and WEP operation

2) Accepts zero-filled addresses for SIOCSIWAP, which are legal and
should turn off any previous forced WAP address

3) Sends association and de-association events to userspace at most of
the appropriate times

4) Fixes erroneous order of CIPHER_SUITE_WEP_* arguments in one location
which are actually unused anyway

ac7c66698a [PATCH] corruption during e100 MDI register access
We have identified two related bugs in the e100 driver.

Both bugs are related to manipulation of the MDI control register.

The first problem is that the Ready bit is being ignored when writing to
the Control register; we noticed this because the Linux bonding driver
would occasionally come to the spurious conclusion that the link was down
when querying Link State.  It turned out that by failing to wait for a
previous command to complete it was selecting what was essentially a random
register in the MDI register set.  When we added code that waits for the
Ready bit (as shown in the patch file below) all such problems ceased.

The second problem is that, although access to the MDI registers involves
multiple steps which must not be intermixed, nothing was defending against
two or more threads attempting simultaneous access.  The most obvious
situation where such interference could occur involves the watchdog versus
ioctl paths, but there are probably others, so we recommend the locking
shown in our patch file.

f4619025a5 [ARM] Allow r2 to be passed through the decompressor to the kernel
This is part of a patch from Marc Singer to allow r2 to be
passed to the kernel.  Marc's original comments follow:

This revised R2 (atags pointer) patch incorporates comments from Nico
Pitre and Ben Dooks. It modifies the head.S files such that the R2
value set by the bootloader is conveyed to the kernel startup code.
The kernel head.S heuristically validates the pointer. It will set R2
to zero if it believes the pointer is invalid. Presently, it requires
that the ATAGS list reside in the first 16KiB of physical RAM.
Relaxing this contraint may be both desirable as well as tricky.
