The return value of free_pages_check() indicates if PG_reserved was set.
If so, the calling functions return immediately and no pages are freed so
there is no need to call bad_page().

Dear James,
I just had some issues when trying to compile ieee80211 1.2.15 together with
ipw3945 1.1.2 on the latest kernel tree
attached are two patches I had to create to work around it
I guess they are self-explanatory :-)

Hi to all,
I'm just sending this mail to advise that I get many warnings
during compilation of the kernel. If somebody wants to check
it here is the logs. Maybe can be of some help.
If you need additional info please cc me as I'm not on the list.

And this happens only if eth1394 wasn't unloaded (therefore unbound
from FireWire "ud" devices beneath FireWire "ne" devices beneath the
FireWire host devices) before the host devices's children

Fixes the oops in cpufreq_stats with acpi_cpufreq driver.
The issue was that the frequency was reported as 0 in acpi-cpufreq.c.
The bug is due to different indicies for freq_table and ACPI perf table.
Also adds a check in cpufreq_stats to check for error return from
freq_table_get_index() and avo

I *think* it was the MSI troubles, causing interrupts to get
lost forever. Anyway, it went away in -rc6.

The MTD_PCMCIA driver has:
- already been marked as BROKEN in 2.6.0 three years ago and
- is still marked as BROKEN.
Drivers that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seem to be
unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future.
But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is

device_del() in the drivers/base/core.c file (reported by kmemleak).

Move the loop from freeze_processes() to a separate function and call it
independently for user space processes and kernel threads so that the order of
freezing tasks is clearly visible.

Move the loop from thaw_processes() to a separate function and call it
independently for kernel threads and user space processes so that the order

Drop thaw_kernel_threads() which is never used.

patch be submitted to the diff maintainer instead?

timing to trigger this. Quoting myself from

Please take a look at 7466, they seem to fight same problem, so may be

And Linus is about to drop it anyway...
