- Move capable() from sched.h to capability.h;
- Use <linux/capability.h> where capable() is used
(in include/, block/, ipc/, kernel/, a few drivers/,
mm/, security/, & sound/;
many more drivers/ to go)

Uninline capable(). Saves 2K of kernel text on a generic .config, and 1K on a
tiny config. In addition it makes the use of capable more consistent between
CONFIG_SECURITY and !CONFIG_SECURITY

With Andi Kleen's x86_64 patch to use DMI, and my ia64 to use DMI, there is
now a new CONFIG_DMI option which takes the place of CONFIG_X86 to denote
the availability of the DMI functions. Make the IPMI driver use CONFIG_DMI
instead.
Tested on ia64 2.6.15 kernel plus the previous patch, on a Dell PowerEdge
7250 Itanium2 server, and it now autodetects the IPMI KCS driver as
expected.

There is a window where a probe gets removed right after the probe is hit
on some different cpu. In this case probe handlers can't find a matching
probe instance related to break address. In this case we need to read the
original instruction at break address to see if that is not a break/int3
instruction and recover safely.
Previous code had a bug where we were not checking for the above race in
case of reentrant probes and the below patch fixes this race.
Tested on IA64, Powerpc, x86_64.

When a kprobes modules is written in such a way that probes are inserted on
itself, then unload of that moudle was not possible due to reference
couning on the same module.
The below patch makes a check and incrementes the module refcount only if
it is not a self probed module.
We need to allow modules to probe themself for kprobes performance
measurements
This patch has been tested on several x86_64, ppc64 and IA64 architectures.

Sometimes we call do_journal_end() with t_refcount == 0. If quota is
turned on and we happen to have some inode with preallocation bad things
happen as we try to use the current handle for quota operations. Checks
for t_refcount in journal_begin() fail and we Oops. We raise t_refcount to
make those checks happy. We should not cause any bad as all the needed
quota blocks should be already attached to the transaction (they were
attached to the transaction when we allocated those preallocation blocks).

o fs/proc/vmcore.c compilation gives warnings on ppc64. The reason being
that u64 is defined as unsigned long hence u64* is not same as loff_t*
and compiler cribs.
o Changed the parameter type to u64* instead of loff_t* to resolve the
conflict.

There's an ifdef in cs89x0.c that seems to have been the wrong way round
since it was merged (and noone seems to have noticed) -- the IXDP2x01
doesn't support ISA-style DMA, but when building for IXDP2x01, cs89x0's
ALLOW_DMA is set to 1, and when building for another platform, ALLOW_DMA is
set to 0.

Someone wanted access to this usually unused (and unused by Linux) value
for the day of week. Existing kernels have the field in the struct but
return 0 always. This updates the kernel to fill in the field. The usual
case of 'not set' conveniently is 0.

The debug-stub patch was broken on x86_64 because it thinks the frame size
there is 168 words. In reality, it is 168 bytes, and using HOST_FRAME_SIZE,
which is expressed in consistent units across architectures, fixes this.

2.6.15-mm1 caused kernel-offsets.c to stop compiling with a syntax error in a
header. The problem was with KBUILD_BASENAME, which didn't get a definition
with the by-hand compilation in the main UML Makefile.
This was OK before since the expansion was syntactically the same as the
KBUILD_BASENAME token. With -mm1, the expansion is now a quote-delimited
string, so there needs to be a definition of it.
Since kernel-offsets.c is basically the same as other arches' asm-offsets.c,
and those seem to build OK, this patch turns kernel-offsets.c into
asm-offsets.c. kernel-offsets.c is in arch/um/sys-$(SUBARCH), i.e. sys-i386
and sys-x86_64, while kbuild expects it to be in arch/um/kernel.
kernel-offsets.c is moved to
arch/um/include/sysdep-$(SUBARCH)/kernel-offsets.h, which is included by
arch/um/kernel/asm-offsets.c. With that, include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h is
generated automatically. kernel-offsets.h continues to exist because it needs
to be accessible to userspace UML code, and include/asm-um isn't. So, a
symlink is made from arch/um/include/kernel-offsets.h to
include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h.

The ip6_xmit() function now assumes that its sk argument is non-NULL,

PPC32 is still using asm-generic/4level-fixup.h, but asm-powerpc/page.h
was defining pud_t and pgd_t. Depending on the order in which files
got included, this could result in a compilation error. Tweak the ifdef
so that page.h doesn't try to define pud_t on ppc32 (which uses 2-level
page tables).
