af91322ef3 printk: add printk_delay to make messages readable for some scenarios
When syslog is not possible, at the same time there's no serial/net
console available, it will be hard to read the printk messages.  For
example oops/panic/warning messages in shutdown phase.

Add a printk delay feature, we can make each printk message delay some
milliseconds.

Setting the delay by proc/sysctl interface: /proc/sys/kernel/printk_delay

The value range from 0 - 10000, default value is 0

5d3bc27091 mm: fix NUMA accounting in numastat.txt
In Documentation/numastat.txt, it confused me.  For example, there are
nodes [0,1] in system.

barrios:~$ cat /proc/zoneinfo | egrep 'numa|zone'
Node 0, zone	DMA
	numa_hit	33226
	numa_miss	1739
	numa_foreign	27978
	..
	..
Node 1, zone	DMA
	numa_hit	307
	numa_miss	46900
	numa_foreign	0

1) In node 0,  NUMA_MISS means it wanted to allocate page
in node 1 but ended up with page in node 0

2) In node 0, NUMA_FOREIGN means it wanted to allocate page
in node 0 but ended up with page from Node 1.

But now, numastat explains it oppositely about (MISS, FOREIGN).
Let's fix up with viewpoint of zone.

bb72222086 tracing, documentation: add a document describing how to do some performance analysis with tracepoints
The documentation for ftrace, events and tracepoints is pretty extensive.
Similarly, the perf PCL tools help files --help are there and the code
simple enough to figure out what much of the switches mean.  However,
pulling the discrete bits and pieces together and translating that into
"how do I solve a problem" requires a fair amount of imagination.

Optionally, the output can include information on the parent or aggregate
based on process name instead of aggregating based on each pid. Example output
including parent information and stripped out the PID looks something like;

This says that Xorg allocated 3796 pages and it's parent process is gdm
with a PID of 3756;

The postprocessor parses the text output of tracing.  While there is a
binary format, the expectation is that the binary output can be readily
translated into text and post-processed offline.  Obviously if the text
format changes, the parser will break but the regular expression parser is
fairly rudimentary so should be readily adjustable.

398499d5f3 pagemap clear_refs: modify to specify anon or mapped vma clearing
The patch makes the clear_refs more versatile in adding the option to
select anonymous pages or file backed pages for clearing.  This addition
has a measurable impact on user space application performance as it
decreases the number of pagewalks in scenarios where one is only
interested in a specific type of page (anonymous or file mapped).

The patch adds anonymous and file backed filters to the clear_refs interface.

echo 1 > /proc/PID/clear_refs resets the bits on all pages
echo 2 > /proc/PID/clear_refs resets the bits on anonymous pages only
echo 3 > /proc/PID/clear_refs resets the bits on file backed pages only

Any other value is ignored

be3990b7ef trivial: doc: hpfall: accept disk device to unload as argument
Allows users who use an IDE driver for their disk to use hpfall without
having to modify the source. By default /dev/sda is used.
Suggested by Christian Thaeter in http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/25/505.

While we're add it, improve error message if opening /dev/freefall fails.

2bace8b951 trivial: doc: hpfall: reduce risk that hpfall can do harm
Improve the example code to be at least useable, as in not causing
harm (as shown below). Code can still be improved further, but this
adds some basic safeguards.

1. hpfall *MUST* mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE); itself!
Since the Program sits and waits most of the time it becomes very likely
swapped out. If it gets woken up when the laptop drops from the table
while it is swapped out it actually triggers harddrive activity!

2. Daemonize hpfall using 'daemon(0,0)' (quick and dirty).

3. Give hpfall realtime priority.
Should give a chance that it has less latency when woken up.

6161352142 tracing, perf: Convert the power tracer into an event tracer
This patch converts the existing power tracer into an event tracer,
so that power events (C states and frequency changes) can be
tracked via "perf".

This also removes the perl script that was used to demo the tracer;
its functionality is being replaced entirely with timechart.

6c119ff493 V4L/DVB (13002): Adds support for Zolid Hybrid PCI card:
http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Zolid_Hybrid_TV_Tuner

test status analog (PAL-B):
- Sometimes picture is noisy, but it becomes crystal clear after
  switching between channels. (happens for example at 687.25 Mhz)
- On a lower frequency (511.25 Mhz) the picture is always sharp, but
  lacks colour.
- No sound problems.
- radio untested.

Digital:
- DVB-T/H stream reception works.
- Would expect to see some more channels in the higher frequency region.

Overall is the impression that sensitivity still needs improvement
both in analog and digital modes.

more clearly mark this as being the device node number and not the minor
number.
