Add support for _safe (exception handled) variants of rdmsr_on_cpu
and wrmsr_on_cpu. This is needed for the upcoming coretemp hardware
monitoring driver, which might step into non-existing (poorly
documented) MSR.

The rework of next_timer_interrupt() fixed the timer wheel bugs, but
invented a rounding error versus the next hrtimer event. This is caused
by the conversion of the hrtimer internal representation to relative
jiffies.
This causes bug #8100:

The watchdog implementation excludes low res / non continuous
clocksources from being selected as a watchdog reference
unintentionally.
Allow using jiffies/PIT as a watchdog reference as long as no better
clocksource is available. This is necessary to detect TSC breakage on
systems, which have no

fdomain.c uses the below stuff only if PCMCIA is not defined.
This causes unused variables to be defined when PCMCIA is not defined.

Currently cpuset_exit() changes the exiting task's ->cpuset pointer w/o

This shouldn't be "pre-pentium", afaik. WP-works-ok on i486 too. I think
only the original i386 had this bug ("feature").
But I agree, it does seem to be broken on such machines

2.6.21-rc4-mm1 also fails for me.
I tried pure 2.6.21-rc4-mm1, +hotfixes, +hotfixes+rsdl33 and at last
also added above debug patch.

All the code does if it prints that message.. is print that message.
The fact the message appears at all appears to indicate a slightly odd
BIOS but since the values in those registers are undefined in this mode

I did not test card ejection with open /dev/dv1394 files yet.

Hello,
I'm running a Macbook Pro first generation (Core Duo, so x86).
I ran accross these two problems while upgrading from 2.6.21-rc3 to the
current git HEAD:
1. appletouch cannot initialize the device properly at boot time (the
module is automatically loaded by Gentoo), I have to reload the
lo,
aic7xxx driver mmio / dma on x86_64 and some pre 2.6.19.5 ix86 linux kernels are
broken here with the adaptec asc19160 PCI/32 scsi hba pci card.
well, i've got several live cd systems < 2.6.19.5i386 like whax 3.0 and knoppix
that oops
and hang boot in aic7xxx init, only one booting here
