Unfortunatly I2S audio output is muted. Unmute it.

Hi,
please ignore the last revision of this patch. There were some places where
semantics where changed instead of just presentation. Also the bd_claim()
'fixup' was reverted, due to a misunderstanding of the code.
This patch replaces some funky codepaths in fs/block_dev.c with cleaner

I was looking at some of the stupider code that calls msleep(),
particularly that which does
msleep(jiffies_to_msecs(jiff))
and I noticed that msleep() just calls schedule_timeout_uninterruptible().
But it does it in a loop.
The basic question is, when does the loop make a difference?

When the old value and new one are the same the emulator skips the
write; this is undesiderable when the destination is a MMIO area and the
write shall be performed regardless of the previous value. This
optimization breaks e.g. a Linux guest APIC compiled without
X86_GOOD_APIC.
Remove the check
When writing to normal memory and the memory area is unchanged the write
can be safely skipped, avoiding the costly kvm_mmu_pte_write.

In 2.6.20, I can boot an arm kernel up to a shell prompt including a virtual

Be sure to properly revalidate all dentry chains passed to all inode and
super_block operations. Remove the older BUG_ON test is_valid_dentry().
This should help improve cache-coherency.

This fixes a harmless but annoying message that unionfs prints if a dropped
dentry is being revalidated, which could happen if you unlink open files.

The following patches consist of mostly cleanups and bug fixes of the
Unionfs code. The major improvement is the new mmap implementation, as well
as a major locking overhaul.
As before, there is a git repo at:

When we have to copyup an open-but-unlinked file, we have to give it a
temporary name, similar to NFS's silly-renamed files. So we generate
temporary file names until we find one that doesn't exist, and use it. The
code had a bug where if the silly-renamed

"futex_requeue_pi optimization"

The patch is non-functional and there is no way to fix it proper before
the 2.6.22 release.

Ok. Then go away.
Everybody else just cares about the legal reasons.
The "legal terms" is the only reason a license *exists*. That's what a
