Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle: "Three issues fixed accross the field: - Some functions that were recently outlined as part of a preemption fix were causing problems with function tracing. - The recently merged in-kernel MPI library uses very outdated headers that contain MIPS-specific code which won't build on with gcc 4.4 or newer. - The MIPS non-NUMA memory initialization was making only a very half-baked attempt at merging adjacent memory ranges. This kept the code simple enough but is now causing issues with kexec." * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus: MPI: Fix compilation on MIPS with GCC 4.4 and newer MIPS: Fix crash that occurs when function tracing is enabled MIPS: Merge overlapping bootmem ranges
2012-11-26powerpc/eeh: Do not invalidate PE properlyGavin Shan
While the EEH does recovery on the specific PE that has PCI errors, the PCI devices belonging to the PE will be removed and the PE will be marked as invalid since we still need the information stored in the PE. We only invalidate the PE when it doesn't have associated EEH devices and valid child PEs. However, the code used to check that is wrong. The patch fixes that.

Pull MTD fixes from David Woodhouse: "The most important part of this is that it fixes a regression in Samsung NAND chip detection, introduced by some rework which went into 3.7. The initial fix wasn't quite complete, so it's in two parts. In fact the first part is committed twice (Artem committed his own copy of the same patch) and I've merged Artem's tree into mine which already had that fix. I'd have recommitted that to make it somewhat cleaner, but figured by this point in the release cycle it was better to merge *exactly* the commits which have been in linux-next. If I'd recommitted, I'd also omit the sparse warning fix. But it's there, and it's harmless — just marking one function as 'static' in onenand code. This also includes a couple more fixes for stable: an AB-BA deadlock in JFFS2, and an invalid range check in slram." * tag 'for-linus-20121123' of git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6: mtd: nand: fix Samsung SLC detection regression mtd: nand: fix Samsung SLC NAND identification regression jffs2: Fix lock acquisition order bug in jffs2_write_begin mtd: onenand: Make flexonenand_set_boundary static mtd: slram: invalid checking of absolute end address mtd: ofpart: Fix incorrect NULL check in parse_ofoldpart_partitions() mtd: nand: fix Samsung SLC NAND identification regression

2012-11-23of/address: sparc: Declare of_iomap as an extern function for sparc againAndreas Larsson
This bug-fix makes sure that of_iomap is defined extern for sparc so that the sparc-specific implementation of_iomap is once again used when including include/linux/of_address.h in a sparc context. OF_GPIO that is now available for sparc relies on this. The bug was inadvertently introduced in a850a75, "of/address: add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF", that added a static dummy inline for of_iomap when !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS. However, CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS is never defined for sparc, but there is a sparc-specific implementation /arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_common.c. This fix takes the same approach as 0bce04b that solved the equivalent problem for of_address_to_resource.
