I have written a driver (for the CD Rom on the Sega Dreamcast). I have
marked various initialisation functions - including probe() and the
functions that it, and only it, calls, as __init.
Other developers tell me I should mark them as __devinit.

Hi,
Some device drivers register CPU hotplug notifiers and use them to destroy
device objects when removing the corresponding CPUs and to create these objects
when adding the CPUs back.
Unfortunately, this is not the right thing to do during suspend/hibernation,
since in that cases the CPU hotplu

The MSR driver should not attempt to destroy/create a suspended
device.

And the range 0x1400-0x147f (which is apparently the ACPI block) is

I agree with Jan that it would be better to put this into scripts.
In the long term we could also detect some of the simple special cases, so we
can finally inline some of these functions again, this w

Hi,
I've just seen this on my dmesg, this is new, never seen this before on
this box and it happens only with this version of the kernel.
In this configuration, the page size is set to 64K and I've enabled fake
NUMA nodes on PowerPC.
