A number of configuration file changes.

These are mainly to replace references to ARCH_AT91RM9200 and
ARCH_AT91SAM9261 with the common/generic ARCH_AT91.  That way we don't
need to mention every specific AT91 processor explicitly.

Also adds the configuration option for AT91SAM9260-EK and AT91SAM9261-EK

      * Reserve 1Mb of memory below the IO for mapping the internal SRAM
        and any custom board-specific devices (ie, FPGA).
      * The SAM9260 has more serial ports, so increase the maximum to 7.

ad2d722570 [PATCH] block: kill length alignment test in bio_map_user()
The target mode support is mapping in bios using bio_map_user. The
current targets do not need their len to be aligned with a queue limit
so this check is causing some problems. Note: pointers passed into the
kernel are properly aligned by usersapace tgt code so the uaddr check
in bio_map_user is ok.

The major user, blk_bio_map_user checks for the len before mapping
so it is not affected by this patch.

And the semi-newly added user blk_rq_map_user_iov has been failing
out when the len is not aligned properly so maybe people have been
good and not sending misaligned lens or that path is not used very
often and this change will not be very dangerous. st and sg do not
check the length and we have not seen any problem reports from those
wider used paths so this patch should be fairly safe - for mm
and wider testing at least.

be1c63411a [PATCH] blktrace: add timestamp message
This adds a new timestamp message to blktrace, giving the timeofday when
we starting tracing. This helps user space correlate block trace events
with eg an application strace.

This requires a (compatible) update to blkparse. The changed blkparse
is still able to process traces generated by older kernels, and older
versions of blkparse should silently ignore the new records (because
they have a pid of 0).

b7dc96d753 [ARM] Clean up discontigmem support
Most architectures have fairly simple discontiguous memory - a
simple set of successive regions each containing some memory.
These can be described simply as a log2 of their maximum size,
along with the base address of the first region and the number
of regions.

The base address is already described by PHYS_PFN_OFFSET, and
the number of regions via the MAX_NUMNODES and the number of
online nodes.

If we then supply the log2 of their maximum size, all the other
discontigmem macros can move into generic code.

There is one exception: lh7a40x seems to have a more complicated
setup; this is left alone.

33c3de3287 [GFS2] Don't flush everything on fdatasync
The gfs2_fsync() function was doing a journal flush on each
and every call. While this is correct, its also a lot of
overhead. This patch means that on fdatasync flushes we
rely on the VFS to flush the data for us and we don't do
a journal flush unless we really need to.

We have to do a journal flush for stuffed files though because
they have the data and the inode metadata in the same block.
Journaled files also need a journal flush too of course.

0da3585e1e [GFS2] Mount problem with the GFS2 code
While mounting the gfs2 filesystem,our test team had a problem and we
got this error message.
=======================================================

GFS2: fsid=: Trying to join cluster "lock_nolock", "dasde1"
GFS2: fsid=dasde1.0: Joined cluster. Now mounting FS...
GFS2: not a GFS2 filesystem
GFS2: fsid=dasde1.0: can't read superblock: -22

==========================================================================
On debugging further we found that problem is while reading the super
block(gfs2_read_super) and comparing the magic number in it.
When I  replace the submit_bio() call(present in gfs2_read_super) with
the sb_getblk() and ll_rw_block(), mount operation succeded.
On further analysis we found that before calling submit_bio(),
bio->bi_sector was set to "sector" variable. This "sector" variable has
the same value of bh->b_blocknr(block number). Hence there is a need to
multiply this valuwith (blocksize >> 9)(9 because,sector size
2^9,samething happens in ll_rw_block also, before calling submit_bio()).
So I have developed the patch which solves this problem. Please let me
know your comments.

98f176fb32 [DLM] don't accept replies to old recovery messages
We often abort a recovery after sending a status request to a remote node.
We want to ignore any potential status reply we get from the remote node.
If we get one of these unwanted replies, we've often moved on to the next
recovery message and incremented the message sequence counter, so the
reply will be ignored due to the seq number.  In some cases, we've not
moved on to the next message so the seq number of the reply we want to
ignore is still correct, causing the reply to be accepted.  The next
recovery message will then mistake this old reply as a new one.

To fix this, we add the flag RCOM_WAIT to indicate when we can accept a
new reply.  We clear this flag if we abort recovery while waiting for a
reply.  Before the flag is set again (to allow new replies) we know that
any old replies will be rejected due to their sequence number.  We also
initialize the recovery-message sequence number to a random value when a
lockspace is first created.  This makes it clear when messages are being
rejected from an old instance of a lockspace that has since been
recreated.

2896ee37cc [DLM] fix add_requestqueue checking nodes list
Requests that arrive after recovery has started are saved in the
requestqueue and processed after recovery is done.  Some of these requests
are purged during recovery if they are from nodes that have been removed.
We move the purging of the requests (dlm_purge_requestqueue) to later in
the recovery sequence which allows the routine saving requests
(dlm_add_requestqueue) to avoid filtering out requests by nodeid since the
same will be done by the purge.  The current code has add_requestqueue
filtering by nodeid but doesn't hold any locks when accessing the list of
current nodes.  This also means that we need to call the purge routine
when the lockspace is being shut down since the add routine will not be
rejecting requests itself any more.

dcf3dd852f [GFS2] Fix recursive locking in gfs2_getattr
The readdirplus NFS operation can result in gfs2_getattr being
called with the glock already held. In this case we do not want
to try and grab the lock again.

This fixes Red Hat bugzilla #215727

300c7d75f3 [GFS2] Fix recursive locking in gfs2_permission
Since gfs2_permission may be called either from the VFS (in which case
we need to obtain a shared glock) or from GFS2 (in which case we already
have a glock) we need to test to see whether or not a lock is required.
The original test was buggy due to a potential race. This one should
be safe.

This fixes Red Hat bugzilla #217129

cb4c031318 [GFS2] Reduce number of arguments to meta_io.c:getbuf()
Since the superblock and the address_space are determined by the
glock, we might as well just pass that as the argument since all
the callers already have that available.

b004157ab5 [GFS2] Fix journal flush problem
This fixes a bug which resulted in poor performance due to flushing
the journal too often. The code path in question was via the inode_go_sync()
function in glops.c. The solution is not to flush the journal immediately
when inodes are ejected from memory, but batch up the work for glockd to
deal with later on. This means that glocks may now live on beyond the end of
the lifetime of their inodes (but not very much longer in the normal case).

Also fixed in this patch is a bug (which was hidden by the bug mentioned above) in
calculation of the number of free journal blocks.

The gfs2_logd process has been altered to be more responsive to the journal
filling up. We now wake it up when the number of uncommitted journal blocks
has reached the threshold level rather than trying to flush directly at the
end of each transaction. This again means doing fewer, but larger, log
flushes in general.
