function tracing: fix wrong position computing of stack_trace
Impact: make output of stack_trace complete if buffer overruns
When read buffer overruns, the output of stack_trace isn't complete.
When printing records with seq_printf in t_show, if the read buffer
has overruned by the current record, then this record won't be
printed to user space through read buffer, it will just be dropped in
this printing.
When next printing, t_start should return the "*pos"th record, which
is the one dropped by previous printing, but it just returns
(m->private + *pos)th record.
Here we use a more sane method to implement seq_operations which can
be found in kernel code. Thus we needn't initialize m->private.
About testing, it's not easy to overrun read buffer, but we can use
seq_printf to print more padding bytes in t_show, then it's easy to
check whether or not records are lost.
This commit has been tested on both condition of overrun and non
overrun.

parisc: fix bug in compat_arch_ptrace
Commit 81e192d6ce303b6792aa38ff35f41a1a7357f23a ("parisc: convert to
generic compat_sys_ptrace") introduced a bug which segfaults the parisc
64bit kernel when stracing 32bit applications:
The problem is that compat_arch_ptrace() enters with an addr value of
type compat_ulong_t and calls translate_usr_offset() to translate the
address offset into a struct pt_regs offset like this:
addr = translate_usr_offset(addr)
this means that any return value of translate_usr_offset() is stored
back as compat_ulong_t type into the addr variable.
But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr
can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value
sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory:
if (addr < 0)
break;
Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return
values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value
"sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator.
Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values
for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs).

pkt_sched: add DRR scheduler
Add classful DRR scheduler as a more flexible replacement for SFQ.
The main difference to the algorithm described in "Efficient Fair Queueing
using Deficit Round Robin" is that this implementation doesn't drop packets
from the longest queue on overrun because its classful and limits are
handled by each individual child qdisc.

netdevice lance: Convert directly reference of netdev->priv
This patch is to kill directly reference of netdev->priv too.
Because the private data should be allocated in DMA area, alloc_etherdev()
can't satisfy this needs.
Use netdev->ml_priv to point to lance_private.

Currently, if multiple unicast addresses are programmed into a
mv643xx_eth interface, the core networking will resort to enabling
promiscuous mode on the interface, as mv643xx_eth does not implement
->set_rx_mode().
This patch switches mv643xx_eth over from ->set_multicast_list()
to ->set_rx_mode(), and implements support for secondary unicast
addresses. The hardware can handle multiple unicast addresses as
long as their first 11 nibbles are the same (i.e. are of the form
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xy where the x part is the same for all addresses), so
if that is the case, we use that mode. If it's not the case, we enable
unicast promiscuous mode in the hardware, which is slightly better than
enabling promiscuous mode for multicasts as well, which is what would
happen before.
While we are at it, change the programming sequence so that we
don't clear all filter bits first, so we don't lose all incoming
packets while the filter is being reprogrammed.

Since txq_alloc_desc_index() is a very simple function, and since
descriptor ring index handling for transmit reclaim, receive
processing and receive refill is already handled inline as well,
inline txq_alloc_desc_index() into its two call sites.

By giving the per-port 'struct mv643xx_eth_private' its own
'void __iomem *base' pointer that points to the per-port register
area, we can get rid of both the double indirection and the << 10
that is done for every per-port register access -- this patch does
that.

HID: unignore mouse on unibody macbooks
In commit a96d6ef34, the mouse interfaces on the unibody macbooks were
put into hid mouse ignore list. This was a little bit too premature
though, as the corresponding bcm5974 changes are scheduled for 2.6.29.
Remove these devices from the ignore list for now, in order to provide at
least basic functionality with the HID driver.
Will be reintroduced in 2.6.29
