2009-07-29eeprom/at25: bugfix "not ready" timeout after writeSebastian Heutling
Under certain circumstances msleep(1) within the loop, which waits for the EEPROM to be finished, might take longer than the timeout. On the next loop the status register might now return to be ready and therefore the loop finishes. The following check now tests if a timeout occurred and if so returns an error although the device reported it was ready. This fix replaces testing the occurrence of the timeout by testing the "not ready" bit in the status register.

2009-06-18gru: fix potential use-after-free when purging GRU tlbsJack Steiner
Fix potential SGI GRU bug that could cause a use-after-free. If one thread in a task is flushing the GRU and another thread destroys the GRU context, there is the potential to access a table after it has been freed. Copy the gms pointer to a local variable before unlocking the gts table. Note that no refcnt is needed for the gms - the reference is held indirectly by the task's mm_struct.

2009-06-16page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is ↵Mel Gorman
valid Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean "allocate from the current node". However, a number of the callers in fast paths know for a fact their node is valid. To avoid a comparison and branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid with VM_BUG_ON(). Callers that know their node is valid are then converted.
