2.6.27-rc8 regression on arm: kernel will no longer boot on Sharp Zaurus c-3000

[Pavel Machek]

...unfortunately, its kind of hard to debug, as I'm testing kernels
using kexec and only see messages late in boot. 2.6.26 works ok.

Lost patch:
http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/lurker/message/20081007.113509.c17e1e65.en.html

OT: 2.6.26 does not work OK. You need I2C init patch.

Not really lost.  I asked for it, but it didn't arrive in time for the
upcoming merge window.

However, since it is a regression, as identified by Pavel, it is -rc
material, not merge window material which isn't clear from the thread
or the problem description.

So, let's get it in for -final.

Thanks for the effort, but it looks like it did not make it, right?

Anyway, thanks for the patch, it worked for me. I will scream if
2.6.28-rc1 does not work.

Correct - Linus was unpredictable and released 2.6.27 that evening,
four days early giving me no time to push the fix to him.

However, it's gone in as part of the first ARM merge, so should be in
-rc1.

Is it in -stable?  if not, is it considered as -stable material?

Yes, I guess it should go to stable.

    [ARM] 5300/1: fixup spitz reset during boot
    
    Some machines don't have the pullup/down on their reset
    pin, so configuring the reset generating pin as input makes
    them reset immediately. Fix that by making reset pin direction
    configurable.

Use colon (':') after function parameters, not hyphen/dash.

Comments received after the patch has been committed and sent to
Linus can't be retrospectively corrected.  Another patch is required.

Since it's a trivial documentation matter, don't we have someone
handling such patches?  Is Rusty still the Trivial Patch Monkey?

Okay, sorry about that. If I promise to fix that in mainline, will you
let me apply the -stable patch?

...I believe this one should go in. Documentation problem is not that
bad, and it fixes booting. 

Alternatively, I can submit fixed patch, but it will be in trivial way
different from what is currently in mainline... which is okay for this
I guess.

Greg, will you take the patch as-is, or can you simply replace - with
: or do you want me to submit new one?
