[PATCH 2/7] tty: Take a 256 byte padding into account when buffering below sub-page units
From: Mel Gorman <mel(a)csn.ul.ie> The TTY layer takes some care to ensure that only sub-page allocations are made with interrupts disabled. It does this by setting a goal of "TTY_BUFFER_PAGE" to allocate. Unfortunately, while TTY_BUFFER_PAGE takes the size of tty_buffer into account, it fails to account that tty_b... 19 Mar 2010 11:59

[PATCH 12/12] driver core: numa: fix BUILD_BUG_ON for node_read_distance
From: David Rientjes <rientjes(a)google.com> node_read_distance() has a BUILD_BUG_ON() to prevent buffer overruns when the number of nodes printed will exceed the buffer length. Each node only needs four chars: three for distance (maximum distance is 255) and one for a seperating space or a trailing newline. S... 19 Mar 2010 11:59

[PATCH 6/7] tty: cpm_uart: use resource_size()
From: Tobias Klauser <tklauser(a)distanz.ch> Use the resource_size function instead of manually calculating the resource size. This reduces the chance of introducing off-by-one errors.

[PATCH 3/7] uartlite: Fix build on sparc.
From: David Miller <davem(a)davemloft.net> We can get this driver enabled via MFD_TIMBERDALE which only requires GPIO to be on. But the of_address_to_resource() function is only present on powerpc and microblaze, so we have to conditionalize the CONFIG_OF probing bits on that. Signed-off-by: David S.
