Manually fix up conflicts in: - drivers/net/e1000e/netdev.c: due to pm_qos registration infrastructure changes - drivers/net/phy/marvell.c: conflict between adding 88ec048 support and cleaning up the IDs - drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2100.c: trivial ipw2100_pm_qos_req conflict (registration change vs marking it static)

ACPI / Sleep: Allow the NVS saving to be skipped during suspend to RAM

2010-07-25T03:26:09Z

Commit 2a6b69765ad794389f2fc3e14a0afa1a995221c2 (ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM) caused the ACPI suspend code save the NVS area during suspend and restore it during resume unconditionally, although it is known that some systems need to use acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs for hibernation to work. To allow the affected systems to avoid saving and restoring the NVS area during suspend to RAM and resume, introduce kernel command line option acpi_sleep=nonvs and make acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs work as its alias temporarily (add acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs to the feature removal file).

netfilter: complete the deprecation of CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT

2010-06-25T12:46:56Z

CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT has been deprecated for awhile and was originally scheduled for removal by 2.6.29. Removing support for this config option also stops this deprecation warning message in the kernel log. [ 61.669627] nf_conntrack version 0.5.0 (16384 buckets, 65536 max) [ 61.669850] CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT is deprecated and will be removed soon. Please use [ 61.669852] nf_conntrack.acct=1 kernel parameter, acct=1 nf_conntrack module option or [ 61.669853] sysctl net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct=1 to enable it.

PCI/PM: Do not use native PCIe PME by default

2010-06-18T16:36:37Z

Commit c7f486567c1d0acd2e4166c47069835b9f75e77b (PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver) causes the native PCIe PME signaling to be used by default, if the BIOS allows the kernel to control the standard configuration registers of PCIe root ports. However, the native PCIe PME is coupled to the native PCIe hotplug and calling pcie_pme_acpi_setup() makes some BIOSes expect that the native PCIe hotplug will be used as well. That, in turn, causes problems to appear on systems where the PCIe hotplug driver is not loaded. The usual symptom, as reported by Jaroslav Kameník and others, is that the ACPI GPE associated with PCIe hotplug keeps firing continuously causing kacpid to take substantial percentage of CPU time. To work around this issue, change the default so that the native PCIe PME signaling is only used if directly requested with the help of the pcie_pme= command line switch. Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15924 , which is a listed regression from 2.6.33. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
