sysfs: build fix
x86.git testing found the following build failure on v2.6.26-rc1:

  In file included from include/linux/kobject.h:22,
                   from include/linux/module.h:17,
                   from include/linux/crypto.h:22,

                   from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:3:
  include/linux/sysfs.h:201: error: redefinition of 'sysfs_update_group'
  include/linux/sysfs.h:195: error: previous definition of 'sysfs_update_group' was here
  make[1]: *** [arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1
  make: *** [prepare0] Error 2

with the following config:

    http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Sun_May__4_07_09_30_CEST_2008.bad

the reason for the build failure is the duplicate definition of the
sysfs_update_group() inline function in include/linux/sysfs.h.

The duplication was a merge error: it was added via -mm by commit
v2.6.25-7262-g2850699, "sysfs: sysfs_update_group stub for
CONFIG_SYSFS=n" a day before v2.6.26-rc1, but a day before that the same
commit was already merged upstream via the sysfs tree, with commit
v2.6.25-7211-g1cbfb7a.

Make forced module loading optional
The kernel module loader used to be much too happy to allow loading of
modules for the wrong kernel version by default.  For example, if you
had MODVERSIONS enabled, but tried to load a module with no version
info, it would happily load it and taint the kernel - whether it was
likely to actually work or not!

Generally, such forced module loading should be considered a really
really bad idea, so make it conditional on a new config option
(MODULE_FORCE_LOAD), and make it default to off.

If somebody really wants to force module loads, that's their problem,
but we should not encourage it.  Especially as it happened to me by
mistake (ie regular unversioned Fedora modules getting loaded) causing
lots of strange behavior.

x86: remove dell reboot dmi quirk board name match
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10547

Newer Dell OptiPlex 745s hang before rebooting after 'sudo reboot'.

A patch for some versions of the OptiPlex was proposed here --
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/5/59 -- and is included in 2.6.23 and
later kernels, according to
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.23/arch/i386/kernel/reboot.c . However,
the DMI_BOARD_NAME ("0WF810") is too restrictive. Newer OptiPlex
machines have a DMI_BOARD_NAME of "0RF703".  I therefore suggest
adding another clause to reboot.c, similar to the one in the original
patch, but matching a DMI_BOARD_NAME of "0RF703".

On further inspection, it seems that there are other DMI_BOARD_NAMEs
for this same machine. They seem to change from time to time, which
means that the current code is fragile. Moreover, using bios reboot
should not break non-SFF OptiPlex 745s, and so a reasonable fix is to
simply drop the match on DMI_BOARD_NAME.

Mode 4 seems to be similar to one-shot mode, other than the fact that it

starts counting immediately, so add a FIXME to enhance precision.

[ARM] 5024/1: Fix some minor clk issues in the MMCI PL18x driver
This fixes some two minor clk issues.

The first is a comparison where a byte will probably wrap around to 0 instead of being saturated to 255, shouldn't be triggered very often but need fixing.

The second is an attempt by the driver to adjust MCLK down to the maximum frequency according to the spec, so we don't accidentally overclock the PL18x block. None of the mach-{versatile|integrator|lh7a40x} that use it in-tree seem to have a problem with this (all are well below 100MHz, typically 33MHz), but some day there will be a problem.

This is not applied on top of the earlier mmci patch for race condition but rather a clean 2.6.25, but I guess it applies without major protests anyway.

niu: Fix probing regression for maramba on-board chips.
Changeset 7f7c4072ea ("niu: Determine
the # of ports from the card's VPD data") caused maramba on-board
NIU ports to stop probing properly.

The old code had a fallback that would use a num_ports value of
4 if all the probing methods failed, but that was removed.

This restores the fallback of 4 ports, to get things working
again.

Bump driver version and release date.

modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard
Not all device types need a wildcard at the end of their module
aliases. In particular, for i2c module aliases, the trailing wildcard
is not only unneeded, it could also cause the wrong driver to be
loaded.

As I2C devices have no IDs, i2c module aliases are simple, arbitrary
device names. For example:

$ /sbin/modinfo lm90
filename:       /lib/modules/2.6.25-git18/kernel/drivers/hwmon/lm90.ko
author:         Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
description:    LM90/ADM1032 driver
license:        GPL
vermagic:       2.6.25-git18 mod_unload
depends:        hwmon
alias:          i2c:lm90*
alias:          i2c:adm1032*
alias:          i2c:lm99*
alias:          i2c:lm86*
alias:          i2c:max6657*
alias:          i2c:adt7461*
alias:          i2c:max6680*
$

This would cause trouble if one I2C chip name matches the beginning of
another I2C chip name and both chips are supported by different
drivers. For example, an i2c device named lm9042 would cause the lm90
driver to be loaded, while it doesn't support that device. This case
has yet to be seen in practice, but still, I'd like to fix it now. The
cleanest fix is to remove the trailing wildcard from i2c module aliases.

Here's a patch doing this.

Not all device type aliases need a trailing wildcard, in particular
the i2c aliases don't. Don't add a wildcard by default in do_table(),
instead let each device type handler add it if needed.

I have tested types acpi, dmi, eisa, i2c, ide, ieee1394, input, pci,
pcmcia, platform, pnp, scsi, serio, ssb and usb. Other types (ccw, of,
vio, parisc, sdio and virtio) are untested.

sch_htb: remove from event queue in htb_parent_to_leaf()
There is lack of removing a class from the event queue while changing
from parent to leaf which can cause corruption of this rb tree. This
patch fixes a bug introduced by my patch: "sch_htb: turn intermediate
classes into leaves" commit: 160d5e10f8.

Many thanks to Jan 'yanek' Bortl for finding a way to reproduce this
rare bug and narrowing the test case, which made possible proper
diagnosing.

This patch is recommended for all kernels starting from 2.6.20.
