When we did the handle_mm_fault cleanup and get_user_page() race fixes,
handle_mm_fault turned into an inline function that called the real
__handle_mm_fault() code.  The export needed for MOL on ppc wasn't
updated to match the new world order, though.

Turn it into a GPL export while at it, since this is all about internal
interfaces and MOL is GPL'd anwyay.

<content type='text'>
In yenta_socket, we default to using the resource setting of the CardBus
bridge.  However, this is a PCI-bus-centric view of resources and thus needs
to be converted to generic resources first.  Therefore, add a call to
pcibios_bus_to_resource() call in between.  This function is a mere wrapper on
x86 and friends, however on some others it already exists, is added in this
patch (alpha, arm, ppc, ppc64) or still needs to be provided (parisc -- where
is its pcibios_resource_to_bus() ?).

<title>[PATCH] ppc32: fix 44x early serial debug for configurations with more than 512M of RAM</title>

<id>5ce17b18e16177dd6409dabd38df5c2c9b58fc2d</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix 44x early serial debugging for big RAM configurations (more than 512M).
 We cannot use default OpenBIOS virtual mapping, because it interferes with
pinned TLB entry.

While we are at it, move early UART mapping to TLB slot 0, so it can
survive longer during boot process (slot 1 is used by the first ioremap
call, effectively killing UART mapping if it occupies this slot).  Also,
change UART TLB entry size to 4K (256M is too much for a bunch of registers
:).  Squash some warnings on the way.

Tested on Ebony and Ocotea with 1G of RAM.

Thanks to Scott Coulter &lt;scott.coulter@cyclone.com&gt; for diagnosing this
problem.

On PPC 8xx, the DataTLBMiss handler does not jump directly to the page
fault handler, as was the case in v2.4.

It instead loads an invalid TLB which causes a subsequent DataTLBError
exception.

The comment on top of it haven't been update to reflect the change, though.

<title>[PATCH] Don't export machine_restart, machine_halt, or machine_power_off.</title>

machine_restart, machine_halt and machine_power_off are machine
specific hooks deep into the reboot logic, that modules
have no business messing with.  Usually code should be calling
kernel_restart, kernel_halt, kernel_power_off, or
emergency_restart. So don't export machine_restart,
machine_halt, and machine_power_off so we can catch buggy users.

<id>bc75a24582f60a70e2b95fda94ff66f577b7a0db</id>
<content type='text'>
The following patch prevents the crash dump helper code found within kexec
from breaking ppc which still lacks crash dump functionality.

ksysfs crash_notes attribute handling was left under CONFIG_KEXEC for
simplicity although it is not strictly kexec related.

We provide here a dummy definition for crash_notes on ppc.

<title>[PATCH] ppc32: stop misusing NTP's time_offset value</title>

<content type='text'>
As part of my timeofday rework, I've been looking at the NTP code and I
noticed that the PPC architecture is apparently misusing the NTP's
time_offset (it is a terrible name!) value as some form of timezone offset.

This could cause problems when time_offset changed by the NTP code.  This
patch changes the PPC code so it uses a more clear local variable:
timezone_offset.
