u32* volatile cyclone_timer means volatile auto pointer to u32,
which is clearly not what had been intended (we never even take
the address of that variable, let alone pass it to something that
could change it behind our back). u32 volatile * is what the
authors apparently wanted to say, but in reality we don't need that
qualifier there at all - it's (properly) only passed to iomem helpers
which takes care of that stuff just fine.

Convert rel_info to host-endian before calling ip6_tnl_err().
The things become much more straightforward that way.
The key observation (and the reason why that code actually
worked) is that after ip6_tnl_err() we either immediately
bailed out or had rel_info set to 0 or had it set to host-endian
and guaranteed to hit
(rel_type == ICMP_DEST_UNREACH && rel_code == ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED)
case. So inconsistent endianness didn't really lead to bugs,
but it had been subtle and prone to breakage. New variant is
saner and obviously safe.

While learning about schedstats I found that the documentation in the tree
is old. I updated it and found some interesting stuff like schedstats
version 14 is the same as version and version 13 never saw a kernel
release! Also there are 6 fields in the current schedstats that are not
used anymore. Nick had made them irrelevant in commit
476d139c21 but never removed them.
Thanks to Rick's perl script who I borrowed some of the updated descriptions
from.

The Xtensa architecture places literal pools in sections separate
from the instructions. The corresponsing text sections, therefore,
reference the .literal section, and we have to suppress those
warnings.
The naming convention defines the name for a literal
section as .SECTION.literal, unless .SECTION is .text. In that case
the name is only .literal. Using strncmp() instead of strcmp()
to compare the from-section with .SECTION.init.refok in pattern 0
should not cause any regressions for other architectures.
We also need to suppress warnings for two informational
sections (.xt.lit and .xt.prop) used by the Xtensa architecture.

Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
Starting with kernel 2.6.23-rc1, the i386 APM driver fails
on several of my machines with the message:
apm: BIOS not found
This happens because of a bug in the i386 boot code rewrite
from assembler to C. The original assembly code had the
following code in its APM BIOS presence test (boot/setup.S):
andw $0x02, %cx # Is 32 bit supported?
je done_apm_bios # No 32-bit, no (good) APM BIOS
That is, the code bails out if bit 2 is zero.
In the new C version, this is coded as (boot/apm.c):
if (cx & 0x02) /* 32 bits supported? */
return -1;
Here we see that the test has been accidentally inverted.
The fix is to negate the test. I've verified that this
allows the APM driver to work again on my affected machines.
