2007-11-09sched: reintroduce the sched_min_granularity tunablePeter Zijlstra
we lost the sched_min_granularity tunable to a clever optimization that uses the sched_latency/min_granularity ratio - but the ratio is quite unintuitive to users and can also crash the kernel if the ratio is set to 0. So reintroduce the min_granularity tunable, while keeping the ratio maintained internally. no functionality changed.

2007-11-09sched: fix vslicePeter Zijlstra
vslice was missing a factor NICE_0_LOAD, as weight is in weight*NICE_0_LOAD units. the effect of this bug was larger initial slices and thus latency-noisier forks. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The list of options that the fd transport accepts is missing end-of-options marker. This patch adds it. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Acked-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2007-11-069p: return NULL when trans not foundLatchesar Ionkov
v9fs_match_trans function returns arbitrary transport module instead of NULL when the requested transport is not registered. This patch modifies the function to return NULL in that case. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Acked-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2007-11-069p: use copy of the options value instead of originalLatchesar Ionkov
v9fs_parse_options function uses strsep which modifies the value of the v9ses->options field. That modified value is later passed to the function that creates the transport potentially making the transport creation function to fail. This patch creates a copy of v9ses->option field that v9fs_parse_options function uses instead of the original value.

2007-11-05leds: bugfixes for leds-gpioDavid Brownell
Three bugfixes to the leds-gpio driver, plus minor whitespace tweaks: - Do the INIT_WORK() before registering each LED, so if its trigger becomes immediately active it can schedule work without oopsing.. - Use normal registration, not platform_driver_probe(), so that devices appearing "late" (hotplug type) can still be bound. - Mark the driver remove code as "__devexit", preventing oopses when the underlying device is removed. These issues came up when using this driver with some GPIO expanders living on serial busses, which act unlike "normal" platform devices: they can appear and vanish along with the serial bus driver.
