Update generic gup implementation with powerpc specific details.
On powerpc at pmd level we can have hugepte, normal pmd pointer
or a pointer to the hugepage directory.

Freescale introduced new ARM core-based SoCs which support dynamic
frequency switch feature. DFS on new SoCs are compatible with current
PowerPC CoreNet platforms. In order to support those new platforms,
this driver needs to be slightly adjusted. The main changes include:

Hi Dan & Vinod,
I have sent out the v4 of this patch and not received any further feedback yet.
This patch looks ruled out from the patchwork.

So do you know what happened to this patch?

That patch is just wrong and should be reverted, separately from any new

Check old_devdata->dev in nx-842 driver before accessing it, as
on systems without any nx-842 hardware, the ->dev will never be
set. Currently, the module will cause an oops during unload
since old_devdata->dev is null.

In commit da788acb2838 ("clk: ppc-corenet: Fix Section mismatch
warning"), we put the ppc_corenet_clk_driver struct to init section
in order to fix section mismatch warning. This is definitely wrong
because the kernel would free the memories occupied by
ppc_corenet_clk_driver after boot while this
So they can be used by ppc64 board. Also remove the unneeded {} to

Hi,
This tries to fix a kernel panic introduced by commit da788acb2838
("clk: ppc-corenet: Fix Section mismatch warning").
Kevin Hao (2):
powerpc: move ppc_init() to common place
clk: ppc-corenet: don't use platform_driver to init the clock device
arch/powerpc/include/asm/machdep.h
Split the device_control callback of the Freescale Elo DMA driver to make use
of the newly introduced callbacks, that will eventually be used to retrieve
slave capabilities.
While we're at it, remove the useless prep_sg callback.

Hi,
This patch caus
chanctnt is already filled by dma_async_device_register, which uses the channel
list to know how much channels there is.
Since it's already filled, we can safely remove it from the drivers' probe
function.
