[PATCH 3/3] [RFC] power/ds2760_battery: use factor of 50 for rated_capacity
In the ds2760 driver, the currently used factor of 10 to store the rated battery capacity internally is not sufficient for batteries > 2.55 Ah. Change the factor to 20 to broaden that range. Note that due to RATED_CAPACITY_FACTOR, the internal interface won't change, neither for the writeable sysfs entires nor for ... 7 May 2010 14:30

[PATCH 8/8] x86/mrst: Add nop functions to x86_init mpparse functions
Moorestown does not have BIOS provided MP tables, we can save some time by avoiding scaning of these tables. e.g. [ 0.000000] Scan SMP from c0000000 for 1024 bytes. [ 0.000000] Scan SMP from c009fc00 for 1024 bytes. [ 0.000000] Scan SMP from c00f0000 for 65536 bytes. [ 0.000000] Scan SMP from c00bfff0 ... 7 May 2010 14:30

[PATCH 3/8] x86/apic: allow use of lapic timer early calibration result
From: Jacob Pan <jacob.jun.pan(a)intel.com> lapic timer calibration can be combined with tsc in platform specific calibration functions. if such calibration result is obtained early, we can skip the redundent calibration loops.

[PATCH 3/5] direct-io: honor dio->boundary a little more strictly
Because BTRFS needs to be able to lookup checksums when we submit the bio's, we need to be able to look up the logical offset in the inode we're submitting the bio for. The way we do this is in our get_blocks function is return the map_bh with b_blocknr of the logical offset in the file, and then in the submit path... 7 May 2010 14:30
