I request the following patches in patchwork be considered for 2.6.29:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/3778/
powerpc ps3: use smp_request_message_ipi
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/3780/
powerpc cell: use smp_request_message_ipi
I think they were marked changes requested becase the prereq had
requested changes. Now the fixed version has merged. They still
apply cleanly. I have no hardware to test them.
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/16340/
powerpc: check crash_base for relocatable kernel
I think this simple version should be merged and sent to stable for 28.
While Michael would like something more intellegent, I think the
simple patch should go to stable and the code can be refined in the
future.
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/16606/
powerpc: use common cpu_die
This one will change a build error into a possible runtime fault. If
such a fault can be avoided by simply using the existing generic
methods then I think it should be merged. Otherwise, it may be
preferrable to change the config, althoguh its not obvious which
options need to be changed to avpodthe error whereas , and any fault
would require a suspend or hibernation attempt.
Except for the one deferred patch (whcih needs changes) my remaining
patches are new and I think have descriptions os to their impact.
Thanks,
milton
