This changes the interface to be based on bytes instead. The API
matches that of F_SETPIPE_SZ in that it rounds up the passed in
size so that the resulting page array is a power-of-2 in size.
The proc file is renamed to /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size to

drbd: need to set socket bufsize early to take effect
quoting tcp(7):
On individual connections, the socket buffer size must be set prior to the
listen(2) or connect(2) calls in order to have it take effect.
This adds a wrapper to do so, and uses it appropriately.
Improves performance in certain situations.
Note that because we cannot easily determine which socket will be
"meta" and wich "data" (bulk) socket, we adjust both sockets.
Previously, DRBD only adjusted the bufsizes of the "data" socket.

There is also another bug/missing_feature in the code that it does not
support 'always running apic timer' and switches to broadcast mode
unconditionally. Shaohua, can you take a look at that please.

intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors
This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on
Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors
and associated Intel Xeon processors.
It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.
For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y
allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.
Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle
and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".
Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,
making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.
intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.
Processors that are hot-added later will be limited
to using C1 in idle.

ACPI: acpi_idle: touch TS_POLLING only in the non-MWAIT case
commit d306ebc28649b89877a22158fe0076f06cc46f60
(ACPI: Be in TS_POLLING state during mwait based C-state entry)
fixed an important power & performance issue where ACPI c2 and c3 C-states
were clearing TS_POLLING even when using MWAIT (ACPI_STATE_FFH).
That bug had been causing us to receive redundant scheduling interrups
when we had already been woken up by MONITOR/MWAIT.
Following up on that...
In the MWAIT case, we don't have to subsequently
check need_resched(), as that c heck was there
for the TS_POLLING-clearing case.
Note that not only does the cpuidle calling function
already check need_resched() before calling us, the
low-level entry into monitor/mwait calls it twice --
guaranteeing that a write to the trigger address
can not go un-noticed.
Also, in this case, we don't have to set TS_POLLING
when we wake, because we never cleared it.

Nick has switched read_cache_page() and friends to sync behaviour
(i.e. they wait for the page to get unlocked, check if it's uptodate
and if it isn't return ERR_PTR(-EIO) instead) and removed the
duplicate logics from the callers. In case of fs/minix/dir.c he'd

Finding the list of Makefiles in streamline-config should not report errors.
Also move the "chomp" to the @makefiles array instead of doing it in the

The wrong size was being calculated for vfinfo. In one case, it was over-

under-calculating by assuming ifla_vf_* structs are packed together, but
each struct is it's own attr w/ hdr (and padding).
