32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working.  The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.

setns is an easy system call to wire up.  It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.

While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls.  cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev.  avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h.  frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up.  On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait.  On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate.  mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up.  The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.

v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano &lt;dlezcano@fr.ibm.com&gt;
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman &lt;ebiederm@xmission.com&gt;
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall  conflicts.
v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.

<title>arch: add #define for each of optimized find bitops</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a2812e178321132811a53f7be40fe7e9bbffd9e0</id>
<content type='text'>
The style that we normally use in asm-generic is to test the macro itself
for existence, so in asm-generic, do:

	#ifndef find_next_zero_bit_le
	extern unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
		unsigned long size, unsigned long offset);
	#endif

and in the architectures, write

	static inline unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
		unsigned long size, unsigned long offset)
	#define find_next_zero_bit_le find_next_zero_bit_le

This adds the #define for each of the optimized find bitops in the
architectures.

mappings can be used exclusively on v6 and v7 cores where they are
needed.

<title>ARM: 6940/1: fiq: Briefly document driver responsibilities for suspend/resume</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2846d84ffa4408c9810fabad74cb7aec410352fc</id>
<content type='text'>
Drivers which make use of the FIQ interrupt may require the state
of the FIQ mode registers to be preserved across suspend/resume.

Because the FIQ mode registers are not saved and restored
automatically by the kernel, driver authors will need to do the
appropriate save/restore in their own driver suspend/resume
handlers.

Implementing global automatic save/restore of the FIQ state does
not appear appropriate, since this by itself is not sufficient for
FIQ-based drivers to function correctly across suspend/resume in
any case.

This patch adds a brief explanatory note to fiq.h documenting the
requirement placed on driver authors.

 * To remove the risk of inconvenient register allocation decisions
   by the compiler, these functions are separated out as pure
   assembler.

 * The apcs frame manipulation code is not applicable for Thumb-2
   (and also not easily compatible).  Since it's not essential to
   have a full frame on these leaf assembler functions, the frame
   manipulation is removed, in the interests of simplicity.

 * Split up ldm/stm instructions to be compatible with Thumb-2,
   as well as avoiding instruction forms deprecated on &gt;= ARMv7.
