fs: rename buffer trylock

2008-08-05T04:56:09+00:00

Like the page lock change, this also requires name change, so convert the
raw test_and_set bitop to a trylock.

[patch 3/5] vfs: change remove_suid() to file_remove_suid()

2008-07-27T00:53:16+00:00

All calls to remove_suid() are made with a file pointer, because
(similarly to file_update_time) it is called when the file is written.

Clean up callers by passing in a file instead of a dentry.

SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructor

2008-07-26T19:00:07+00:00

Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
themselves multiplexeres.  Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.

Non-trivial places are:
	arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c
	arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c

This is flag day, yes.

Remove duplicated unlikely() in IS_ERR()

2008-04-29T15:06:25+00:00

Some drivers have duplicated unlikely() macros.  IS_ERR() already has
unlikely() in itself.

This patch cleans up such pointless code.

is_vmalloc_addr(): Check if an address is within the vmalloc boundaries

2008-02-05T17:44:14+00:00

Checking if an address is a vmalloc address is done in a couple of places.
Define a common version in mm.h and replace the other checks.

Again the include structures suck.  The definition of VMALLOC_START and
VMALLOC_END is not available in vmalloc.h since highmem.c cannot be included
there.

Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_user

2008-02-05T17:44:13+00:00

Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions

zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)

        Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
        start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
	makes code clearer.

zero_user_segment(page, start, end)

        Same for a single segment.

zero_user(page, start, length)

        Length variant for the case where we know the length.

We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:

1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.

2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.

   Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
   code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
   KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.

Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.

Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.

Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.
