In situations where page table updates need only be made locally, and there
is no cross-processor A/D bit races involved, we need not use the heavyweight
xchg instruction to atomically fetch and clear page table entries. Instead,
we can just read and clear them directly.
This introduces a neat op
In shadow mode hypervisors, ptep_get_and_clear achieves the desired
purpose of keeping the shadows in sync by issuing a native_get_and_clear,
followed by a call to pte_update, which indicates the PTE has been

Direct mode hypervisors (Xen) have no need for this anyway, and will trap

When exiting from an address space, no special hypervisor notification of page
table updates needs to occur; direct page table hypervisors, such as Xen,
switch to another address space first (init_mm) and unprotects the page tables
to avoid the cost of trapping to the hypervisor for each pte_clear.
Some PTE optimizations for native and paravirt-ops kernels; this
provides a huge win for shadow mode hypervisors and gets rid of
some unnecessary atomic instructions in native kernels, saving
even more on UP by getting rid of implicit LOCK on xchg instruction.

Right now, my understanding is that nommu archs just reject MAP_FIXED
outright.

Here is battery monitor class. According to first copyright string, we're
maintaining it since 2003. I've took few days and cleaned it up to be
more suitable for mainline inclusion.
It differs from battery class at git://git.infradead.org/battery-2.6.git:

External power framework - power supplies and power supplicants.
Supplicants (batteries so far) may ask to notify they when power supply
arrive/gone. This framework used by battery class (next patches).
It's permitted for supply to be bound to several supplicants (think main
and backup batteries)
This driver used to stop code/logic duplication through different
machines we porting at handhelds.org. pda_power register machs' power
supplies, and will take care about notifying batteries about power
changes through external power interface.
This driver should be suitable for almost every Linux
