Many of the cpusets control files are simple integer values, which
don't require the overhead of memory allocations for reads and writes.
Move the handlers for these control files into cpuset_read_uint() and
cpuset_write_uint(). This also has the advantage that the control
files show up as "u64"
Strip all trailing whitespace in cgroup_write_uint
This removes the need for people to remember to pass the -n flag to
echo when writing values to cgroup control files.

It's possible that the values used in and returned from jiffies_to_usecs() are
incorrect because of truncation when variables of type u64 are involved. So a
function specific to that type is used instead.
This version implements a correction to jiffies_64_to_usecs() based

Hi,
The next-20080219 kernel oops while booting up on x86_64 box. This bug
was fixed in the 2.6.24-git(s) with the patch posted at
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/11/350
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 80a37b8d
IP: [] ide_device_add_all
Linus,
Please do
git pull \
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc.git merge
to get a few more bug and warning fixes for powerpc. The diffstat is
bloated by the defconfig updates -- the actual code changes are only a
few dozen lines.
Thanks,
Paul.

I'm ambivalent but I would obviously prefer 2.6.25 because
it would allow me to proceed more easily with my sparc64
NUMA work as well as get your bug fixes in more

Update the Smack LSM to allow the registration of the capability
"module" as a secondary LSM. Integrate the new hooks required for
file based capabilities.

Good catch, although hopefully something that would be extremely rare
in practice.

If we add to an empty lmb region with a non-zero base we will not
coalesce
the number of regions down to one. This causes problems on ppc32
