Gentlemen,
I am sorry for confusion, really do not have my day today :(.
In the last patch I mistakenly removed call to original release.
Now it should be OK.

Hello,
Ok, so it's not synchronous writes that we are doing - we're just
submitting bio's tagged as WRITE_SYNC to get the I/O issued
quickly. The synchronous nature appears to be coming from higher
level locking when reclaiming inodes (on the flush lock). It
appears that inode

Hi:
[KERNEL]: Avoid divide in IS_ALIGN
I was happy to discover the brand new IS_ALIGN macro and quickly
used it in my code. To my dismay I found that the generated code
used division to perform the test.
This patch fixes it by changing the % test to an . This avoids
the division.
my HP 385 G2 - 2x dual core Opteron 2216 running 2.6.23.1 with NUMA support
says the following:
Can you post a full boot log?
Here it is.
Further I have a problem with booting the kernel on 4x dual core Opteron
(HP585). It prints lot of panics on boot to console but not to the log.

Looking around sysfs in an attempt to pull out SCSI card firmware

Only one, fw_version, was used more than once. The patch below changes
the other drivers to use this filename too.
I suspect the same applies to other subsystem
