* ACPI: export ACPI events via acpi_mc_group multicast groupZhang Rui2007-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is an incremental patch for the recent genetlink multicast changes. Now ACPI events are exported via generic netlink multicast group.

* ACPI: Export events via generic netlinkZhang Rui2007-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | Upon ACPI events, send an "acpi_event" via Generic Netlink. This is in addition to /proc/acpi/event, which remains intact for now. Thanks to Jamal for his great help. Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

* libata: fix assigned IRQ reportingTejun Heo2007-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | host->irq and host->irq2 should be set before ata_host_register() for IRQ reporting to work. Move up host->irq assignment in ata_host_activate() and add it to ata_pci_init_one() native path and pata_cs5520. The port info printing in ata_host_register() doesn't fit all the different controllers. It should probably be moved out to LLDs with some helpers in the future.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a page can't be allocated for the frag list of a skb, the code to unmap the partially allocated list is off by one. For exaple, if 'frags' equals one, i == 0, and the alloc_page() fails, then the old loop would have unmapped mapping[1] which is uninitialized.

It seems sometimes the mdelay() function is not as precise as it used to be. Per Alan's advice, HT or power management might affect the precision of mdelay(). This patch calls gettimeofday() to mesure the time elapsed and calculate the PLL input clock accordingly.

I thought about adding some crude multiple choice selection (build the old stack, build the new stack, build both stacks). It's possible, but it would introduce awkward dummy config variables.
