Hoy hoy !
It's late, I know, but finally here's a first batch of patches in
powerpc "next" branch that I pushed out today. Hopefully more to come
as I start pulling from Kumar, Grant, etc...
Cheers,
Ben.

This patch got apply-broken by the fixes to the earlier patch in the
series. Here's the fixed version.
Cleanup initialization of hugepages on powerpc
This patch simplifies the logic used to initialize hugepages on
powerpc. The somewhat oddly named set_huge_psize() is renamed to
add_huge_page_si
Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation process comprises of two steps:
- Set the indicators and to update the device tree with DLPAR node
information.

Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation on pSeries is a
two step process from the Userspace.

When a CPU is offlined on POWER currently, we call rtas_stop_self() and hand
the CPU back to the resource pool. This path is used for DLPAR which will
cause a change in the LPAR configuration which will be visible outside.
This patch changes the default state a CPU is put into when it is offlined.
Hi,
This is version 5 of patch series that provides a framework to choose the
state a pseries CPU must be put to when it is offlined.
Previous versions can be found here:
Version 4: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/9/59
Version 3: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/9/15/164
Version 2: http://lkml.org/lkml/200
This patch provides an extended_cede_processor() helper function
which takes the cede latency hint as an argument. This hint is to be passed
on to the hypervisor to cede to the corresponding state on platforms
which support it.

Ugh. And another, which broke compile on all 32-bit platforms. I'm
running out of brown paper bags :(.

Does anyone test freescale evaluation board ads5121ev with linux-2.6.30?
I know that freescale had released a lot of patch for linux-2.6.24.6 and it
works great for me.
But testing 2.6.30 usb doesn't work.
Thanks in advance,

Nope, O_DIRECT did not help - in fact it caused the application to crash. Why
that is I am not sure, but it crashed.

fsl_udc_release() calls dma_free_coherent() with an inappropriate
device passed to it, and since the device has no dma_ops, the following

I resent the patches because the iommu-helper change was not correct
and I introduced serious bug
