<content type='text'>
Fixed a problem where resource descriptor size optimization
could cause a problem when a _CRS resource template is passed
to a _SRS method. The _SRS resource template must use the same
descriptors (with the same size) as returned from _CRS. This
change affects the following resource descriptors: IRQ/IRQNoFlags
and StartDependendentFn/StartDependentFnNoPri.

<title>fix compilation with gcc 4.2</title>

<id>cd5bfea278987ebfe60f3ff92a01696b17c4f978</id>

gcc-4.2 is a lot more picky about its symbol handling.  EXPORT_SYMBOL no
longer works on symbols that are undefined or defined with static scope.

For example, with CONFIG_PROFILE off, I see:

  kernel/profile.c:206: error: __ksymtab_profile_event_unregister causes a section type conflict
  kernel/profile.c:205: error: __ksymtab_profile_event_register causes a section type conflict

This patch moves the EXPORTs inside the #ifdef CONFIG_PROFILE, so we
only try to export symbols that are defined.

Also, in kernel/kprobes.c there's an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for
jprobes_return, which if CONFIG_JPROBES is undefined is a static
inline and gives the same error.

And in drivers/acpi/resources/rsxface.c, there's an
ACPI_EXPORT_SYMBOPL() for a static symbol. If it's static, it's not
accessible from outside the compilation unit, so should bot be exported.

These three changes allow building a zx1_defconfig kernel with gcc 4.2
on IA64.

This is a workaround to handle a BIOS bug where the
programmer exchanged the name and index fields of
a _PRT entry.  Apparently this BIOS error does not
confuse Windows and thus it lurks in the field
on various machines.

boot with "acpi=strict" to disable this workaround

Restructured, flattened, and simplified the internal
interfaces for namespace object evaluation - resulting
in smaller code, less CPU stack use, and fewer
interfaces. (With assistance from Mikhail Kouzmich)

Fixed a problem with the CopyObject operator where the
first parameter was not typed correctly for the parser,
interpreter, compiler, and disassembler. Caused various
errors and unexpected behavior.

Fixed a problem where a ShiftLeft or ShiftRight of
more than 64 bits produced incorrect results with some
C compilers. Since the behavior of C compilers when
the shift value is larger than the datatype width is
apparently not well defined, the interpreter now detects
this condition and simply returns zero as expected in all
such cases. (BZ 395)

Fixed problem reports (Valery Podrezov) integrated: -
Update String-to-Integer conversion to match ACPI 3.0A spec
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5329
Allow interpreter to handle nested method declarations
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5361

Fixed problem reports (Fiodor Suietov) integrated: -
acpi_terminate() doesn't free debug memory allocation
list objects (BZ 355) - After Core Subsystem
shutdown, acpi_subsystem_status() returns AE_OK (BZ 356) -
acpi_os_unmap_memory() for RSDP can be invoked inconsistently
(BZ 357) - Resource Manager should return AE_TYPE for
non-device objects (BZ 358) - Incomplete cleanup branch
in AcpiNsEvaluateRelative (BZ 359) - Use acpi_os_free()
instead of ACPI_FREE in acpi_rs_set_srs_method_data (BZ 360)
- Incomplete cleanup branch in acpi_ps_parse_aml (BZ 361) -
Incomplete cleanup branch in acpi_ds_delete_walk_state (BZ 362)
- acpi_get_table_header returns AE_NO_ACPI_TABLES until DSDT
is loaded (BZ 365) - Status of the Global Initialization
Handler call not used (BZ 366) - Incorrect object parameter
to Global Initialization Handler (BZ 367)

Replaced the acpi_os_queue_for_execution() with a new
interface named acpi_os_execute(). The major difference is
that the new interface does not have a Priority parameter,
this appeared to be useless and has been replaced by
a Type parameter. The Type tells the OS what type of
execution is being requested, such as global lock handler,
notify handler, GPE handler, etc. This allows the host
to queue and execute the request as appropriate for the
request type, possibly using different work queues and
different priorities for the various request types. This
enables fixes for multithreading deadlock problems such as
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5534
(Alexey Starikovskiy and Bob Moore)

Fixed a possible memory leak associated with the
support for the so-called "implicit return" ACPI
extension. Reported by FreeBSD  (Fiodor Suietov)
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6514

Fixed a problem with the Load() operator where a table
load from an operation region could overwrite an internal
table buffer by up to 7 bytes and cause alignment faults
on IPF systems. (With assistance from Luming Yu)
