[PATCH] v9fs: make copy of the transport prototype instead of using it directly

When a new session is created it uses a template object of the specified
transport type to instantiate its own copy.  The code for the making a copy of
the template object was lost, and the object itself is attached to the v9fs
session.  This leads to many sessions using the same transport instead of
having their own copy.

The patch puts back the code that makes a copy of the template object.

What happens is that a first device_attach() call (module insertion time)

bus_rescan_devices().  Now when bus_rescan_devices_helper() checks for

finished.  But as soon as the first one releases the dev->sem the second
device_attach() tries to rebind the already bound device again.
device_bind_driver() does this blindly which leads to a corrupt
driver->klist_devices list (the device links itself, the head points to the
device).  Later a call to device_release_driver() sets dev->driver to NULL
and breaks the link it has to itself on knode_driver.  Rmmoding the driver
later calls driver_detach() which leads to an endless loop 'cos the list
head in klist_devices still points to the device.  And since dev->driver is
NULL it's stuck with the same device forever.  Boom.  And rmmod hangs.

Very easy to reproduce with new-style pcmcia and a 16bit card.  Just loop

Easiest fix is to check if the device is already bound to a driver in

[PATCH] Add printk_clock()

ia64's sched_clock() accesses per-cpu data which isn't set up at boot time.
Hence ia64 cannot use printk timestamping, because printk() will crash in
sched_clock().

So make printk() use printk_clock(), defaulting to sched_clock(), overrideable
by the architecture via attribute(weak).

[SPARC] cs4231: Fix SBUS support in this driver.

From: Christopher Zimmermann <madroach@zakweb.de>

This patch enables SBus support for the cs4231 sound driver.
It is tested on an Ultra2. Capture and playback both work.
I experienced lags and crashes using certain threaded
players like ogg123 and mp3blaster, while the former is
lagging far more. This behavior may be specific to SMP
systems. It is reproducable using the dummy sound card
driver. Sox works flawlessly.

Setting up the calculation of ptr in snd_cs4231_playback_pointer
was a bit strange. I got it to work by not incrementing the
[pc]_periods_sent counter when starting DMA the first time
in cs4231_dma_trigger. Therefore this dummy thing.
