each core be created in the _cpu_init function
call. The cpufreq infrastructure doesn't call
_cpu_init for the second core in each processor.
Some systems crashed when _get was called with
an odd-numbered core because it tried to
dereference a NULL pointer since the data
structure had not been created.
The attached patch solves the problem by
initializing data structures for all shared
cores in the _cpu_init function. It should
apply to 2.6.12-rc6 and has been tested by
AMD and Sun.

It is no longer valid to not replace instructions, since we depend on
different behaviour depending on CPU capabilities.
If you need to limit the capabilities of the replacements (because the
boot CPU has features that non-boot CPU's do not have, for example), you
need to explicitly disable those capabilities that are not shared across
all CPU's.
For example, if your boot CPU has FXSR, but other CPU's in your system
do not, you need to use the "nofxsr" kernel command line, not disable
instruction replacement per se.
This one ends up using an inline asm format that claims to read memory
and then clobber it (rather than just write it directly), which made it
easier to use the existing "alternative_input()" infrastructure support.
Now the fxsave code matches the fxrstor.
More unusable TCF_META_* match types that need to get eliminated
before 2.6.13 goes out the door.

It's really just a single instruction, conditional on whether the CPU
supports FXSR or not, so implement it as such instead of making it a
function that queries FXSR dynamically.
This means that the instruction just gets automatically rewritten to the
correct one at boot-time.
I broke this in the patch that consolidated MAC logging.

The portptr pointing to the port in the conntrack tuple is declared static,
which could result in memory corruption when two packets of the same
protocol are NATed at the same time and one conntrack goes away.

These days %gs is normally the TLS segment, so it's no longer zero. As
a result, we shouldn't just assume that %fs/%gs tend to be zero
together, but test them independently instead.
Also, fix setting of debug registers to use the "next" pointer instead
of "current". It so happens that the scheduler will have set the new
current pointer before calling __switch_to(), but that's just an
implementation detail.
It won't exist any longer when we shrink the SKB in 2.6.14,
and we should kill this off before anyone in userspace starts
using it.

If a connection tracking helper tells us to expect a connection, and
we're already expecting that connection, we simply free the one they
gave us and return success.
The problem is that NAT helpers (eg. FTP) have to allocate the
expectation first (to see what port is available) then rewrite the
packet. If that rewrite fails, they try to remove the expectation,
but it was freed in ip_conntrack_expect_related.
This is one example of a larger problem: having registered the
expectation, the pointer is no longer ours to use. Reference counting
is needed for ctnetlink anyway, so introduce it now.
To have a single "put" path, we need to grab the reference to the
connection on creation, rather than open-coding it in the caller.

Put NETCONSOLE and NETPOLL options together since they are related.
This cuts down on the hassle of flipping back and forth between
the Networking menu and the Network drivers menu to change their

Tested with menuconfig, gconfig, and xconfig.
gconfig has a small problem with this. I think that it's
a bug in gconfig and I will take it up with Romain Lievin.

misprediction for every loop iteration, the fact that the
most common priority is 2 makes this even worse. This issue
has been brought up by Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com>
but unlike his solution which was to manually unroll the loop,
this approach preserves the possibility to increase the number
