Thanks for the report.  The patches are generated from the git tree so
should give you a tree with identical content.

I also use O= for all my builds.  Though my x86_64 allmodconfig builds
worked.

[PATCH 1/2] mpparse: Add a knob to disable IRQ 0 through I/O APIC

 As discovered recently some systems exhibit problems when the 8254 timer 
IRQ is routed through the I/O APIC.  These problems do not affect the 
timer IRQ itself and therefore cannot be detected when the correctness of 
operation of the interrupt is verified in check_timer().  Therefore the 
I/O APIC path of the timer IRQ has to be disabled entirely.

 This is a change that lets platforms ask for the timer IRQ not to be 
registered in the I/O APIC interrupt tables.  The local APIC and ExtINTA 
paths are unaffected.  This request is only taken into account for ACPI 
platforms as MP table systems seem unaffected so far.

[PATCH 2/2] acpi: Disable IRQ 0 through I/O APIC for some HP systems

From: Matthew Garrett <mjg59 <at> srcf.ucam.org>

 Some HP laptops have a problem with their DSDT reporting as
HP/SB400/10000, which includes some code which overrides all temperature
trip points to 16C if the INTIN2 input of the I/O APIC is enabled.  This
input is incorrectly designated the ISA IRQ 0 via an interrupt source
override even though it is wired to the output of the master 8259A and
INTIN0 is not connected at all.  So far two models have been identified, 
namely nx6125 and nx6325.

 Use a knob provided by the I/O APIC interrupt registration code to
abandon any attempts to route IRQ 0 through the I/O APIC for these
systems.

Hello,

 Matthew, you have not added your sign-off with the original patch, please 
do so now.

 Rafael, please try this change together with 
patch-2.6.26-rc1-20080505-mpparse-acpi-noirq0-2 and see if this fixes your 
system.

 I have tried the patches with a wildcard entry added to acpi_dmi_table[]
so that it trips for my system.  The result is as follows:

ENABLING IO-APIC IRQs
..TIMER: vector=0x31 apic1=-1 pin1=-1 apic2=-1 pin2=-1

Assuming it works for Rafael (still haven't had time to pull my nx6125 
out of storage):

More generally "git-bisect good linux-next/stable" - the stable branch is
just where I started on Linus' tree and that is always good :-)

Nice, I must try this.

This problem exists in in 2.6.26-rc8, so it's not specifially linux-next
realted.  The patch at:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?id=19347
should fix it but is un-ACK'd ;P

I think there was no specific reason for limit 100. Just that probably at
that point Eric thought 100 is sufficient. Dynamic allocation is much
better.

This patch looks good. Thanks.

linux-next: manual merge of the sched tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the sched tree got a conflict in
kernel/sched.c between commit 040ec23d07f95285e9777a85cda29cb339a3065b
("sched: sched_clock() lockdep fix") from the  tree and commit
76a2a6ee8a0660a29127f05989ac59ae1ce865fa ("sched: sched_clock_cpu() based
cpu_clock()") from the sched tree.

The former updated some code that the latter removed.  I used the version
from the sched tree.

There was also a conflict in kernel/sched_rt.c between commit
363ab6f1424cdea63e5d182312d60e19077b892a ("core: use performance variant
for_each_cpu_mask_nr") from the cpus4096 tree and commit
eff6549b957d15d1ad168d90b8c1eb643b9c163f ("sched: rt: move some code
around") from the sched tree.

Again I took the version from the sched tree except for the
for_each_cpu_mask -> for_each_cpu_mask_nr transformation.

[PATCH] Introduce rculist.h

In linux-next there is a commit ("rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected
lists into rculist.h") that moved the rcu related list iterators from
list.h to rculist.h.  Add a trivial version of the file now so that
various subsystem trees can start using it now for -next changes and so
reduce the build errors caused by adding uses of the moved functions.

Linus, would you consider patches like this for 2.6.26 that have no
effect on the current tree but help with conflicts in various subsystems
during the next merge window?  I already have three build fixups for this
one in particular.
