SubjectLinux 2.6.0-test8

More changes than I would have liked, but most of them are fairly small.
The most noticeable changes:

- fix the /proc/PID/stat oops that multiple people reported
- workaround for Athlon prefetch bug (occasional spurious page faults)
- fix serverworks PIO autotuning
- fix some cpufrequency calculations
- make NFS O_DIRECT work

The rest are some architecture and driver updates, mostly stuff that
people had queued up and convinced me I wanted to merge before freezing
down totally.

I've flamed a number of people who flaunted the freeze (I cursed a lot
more than I usually do ;), and they won't have any excuse to do so for
test9. So expect the patches to shrink considerably in the coming
weeks.

Linus

previous cset)

CPUs

only), without this, you get no display on machines with those
cards
o Move definition of TimeBase registers from reg_booke.h to reg.h,
those registers exist on common CPUs and without those definitions,
SMP won't build
o Fix timebase hardware sync on SMP PowerMacs (both oldworld dual
604s and core99 dual G4s).

work properly with HZ != 100, causing tb_to_us to be wrong and
gettimeofday() to return strangely "off" results
o Fix a crash on sleep in the OF platform core where we would use a
NULL "driver" pointer and actually try to call it after casting it!
o Fix repeat delays in adbhit, they didn't make the transition to
jiffies based values to ms. This fix crazy key repeat on ADB based
PowerMacs

David Gibson:
o [NET]: Fix initialization sequence in SunGEM driver

David Mosberger:
o ia64: Patch by Jesse Barnes
o ia64: Fix __delay() to do The Right Thing. In practice, this may
cause BogoMIPS to drop to half the clock-speed with current
versions of GCC, but this just shows that GCC doesn't generate very
good code for single-cycle loops. Perhaps it will motivate someone
to improve GCC in this area (though it's hardly of practical value,
other than for producing large BogoMIPS values).
o ia64: Fix __delay() even more: it's just not safe to inline the
delay- loop because, e.g., the compiler might decide to unroll the
loop when passed a constant, etc.
o ia64: Important security fix for fsyscalls. Without this patch,
the McKinley E9 workaround caused fsyscalls to return with the
wrong privilege level.
