2011-05-20[media] zoran: Drop unused module parameters encoder and decoderJean Delvare
The ability to force the encoder or decoder chip was broken by commit 0ab6e1c38d80ab586e3a1ca9e71844131d9f51dc in February 2009. As nobody complained for over 2 years, I take it that these parameters were no longer used so we can simply drop them.

2011-04-28flex_array: flex_array_prealloc takes a number of elements, not an endEric Paris
Change flex_array_prealloc to take the number of elements for which space should be allocated instead of the last (inclusive) element. Users and documentation are updated accordingly. flex_arrays got introduced before they had users. When folks started using it, they ended up needing a different API than was coded up originally. This swaps over to the API that folks apparently need.

2011-04-28memcg: update documentation to describe usage_in_bytesDaisuke Nishimura
Since 569b846d ("memcg: coalesce uncharge during unmap/truncate"), we do batched (delayed) uncharge at truncation/unmap. And since cdec2e42(memcg: coalesce charging via percpu storage), we have percpu cache for res_counter. These changes improved performance of memory cgroup very much, but made res_counter->usage usually have a bigger value than the actual value of memory usage. So, *.usage_in_bytes, which show res_counter->usage, are not desirable for precise values of memory(and swap) usage anymore. Instead of removing these files completely(because we cannot know res_counter->usage without them), this patch updates the meaning of those files.

2011-03-28eeepc-wmi: asus generic asus-wmi.ko moduleCorentin Chary
New Asus notebooks are using a WMI device similar to the one used in Eee PCs. Since we don't want to load eeepc-wmi module on Asus notebooks, and we want to keep the eeepc-wmi module for backward compatibility, this patch introduce a new module, named asus-wmi, that will be used by eeepc-wmi and the new Asus Notebook WMI Driver. eeepc-wmi's input device strings (device name and phys) are kept, but rfkill and led names are changed (s/eeepc/asus/). This should not break anything since rfkill are used by type or index, not by name, and the eeepc::touchpad led wasn't working correctly before 2.6.39 anyway.
