[PATCH] sst25l.c: simplify reading the device ManID/DevID
The Read-ID command will continuously output the Manufacture ID and Device ID until the command is terminated by a low to high transition on the CE# pin. We can take advantage of this in the sst25l_match_device routine by reading both bytes in one spi_write_then_read transaction. Signed-off-by: H Hartley Sweeten ... 20 Apr 2010 19:40

The call to rcu_init_one() can then be moved to the end of the RCU_INIT_FLAVOR() macro, which is required because rcu_boot_init_percpu_data(), which is now ca... 20 Apr 2010 18:30

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 15/23] rcu: permit discontiguous cpu_possible_mask CPU numbering
TREE_RCU assumes that CPU numbering is contiguous, but some users need large holes in the numbering to better map to hardware layout. This patch makes TREE_RCU (and TREE_PREEMPT_RCU) tolerate large holes in the CPU numbering. However, NR_CPUS must still be greater than the largest CPU number. Signed-off-by: Pa... 20 Apr 2010 18:30
