I resent the patches because the iommu-helper change was not correct
and I introduced serious bug in bitmap_find_next_zero_area()
if align_mask != 0 in follow-up patch then those were dropped from
the -mm tree.

Only [PATCH 1/7] and [PATCH 2/7] have changes since the first submission of
this patch set.

* [PATCH 1/7]
- Rewrite bitmap_set() and bitmap_clear()
- Let bitmap_find_next_zero_area() check the last bit of the limit
- Add kerneldoc for bitmap_find_next_zero_area()

* [PATCH 2/7]
- Convert find_next_zero_area() to use bitmap_find_next_zero_area() correctly
  iommu-helper doesn't want to search the last bit of the limist in bitmap

* [PATCH 3/7] - [PATCH 7/7]
- No changes

Hi All,

I couldn't find the following commit on the net-next-2.6 tree:

commit e72701acbe0b35e52d3f04d442837c06b4e64f1c
Author: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@ru.mvista.com>
Date:   Wed Oct 14 14:54:52 2009 -0700

    net: Fix OF platform drivers coldplug/hotplug when compiled as
modules

    Some OF platform drivers are missing module device tables, so they
won't
    load automatically on boot. This patch fixes the issue by adding
proper
    MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macros to the drivers.

    Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@ru.mvista.com>

The same commit is present on the linux-next tree

I cloned the 2 trees from the following links:
linux-next from:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git/

And net-next-2.6 from:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6.git

The absence of the above mentioned commit in the net-next-2.6 tree is
causing
some issues with patches getting applied.

Can you let me know if the net-next-2.6 tree that I am cloning is the
proper one ?


I based all my patches on net-next-2.6 tree cloned from the above link.
But some how when David tries to apply
my patches they fail. I took a diff at the linux-next and net-next-2.6
and the said commit is missing.


-Thanks
Sandeep
