Add bus_type probe, remove and shutdown methods to replace the
corresponding methods in struct device_driver. This matches
the way we handle the suspend/resume methods.
Since the bus methods override the device_driver methods, warn
if a device driver is registered whose methods will not be
called.
The long-term idea is to remove the device_driver methods entirely.

[PATCH] Increase AT_VECTOR_SIZE
On PowerPC, we want to be able to provide an AT_PLATFORM aux table
entry to userspace, so that glibc can choose optimized libraries for
the processor we're running on. Unfortunately that would be the 21st
aux table entry on powerpc, meaning that the aux table including the
terminating null entry would overflow the mm->saved_auxv[] array,
leading to userland programs segfaulting.
This increases the size of the mm->saved_auxv array to be large enough
to accommodate an AT_PLATFORM entry on powerpc.

[PATCH] bonding: UPDATED hash-table corruption in bond_alb.c

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.

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

[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.

[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.
