I've been getting occasional "scheduling while atomic" bugs with power49, so I went hunting through the long list of commits made between 2.6.28 and 3.1, looking for a potential fix. I found numerous bugfixes that might (or might not, in some cases) be good to merge. Where easy, I made patches against power49.

Patches:
Code:
8ae664184c45def51ff0b61d4bd6c6671db6cb4f mtd: change struct flchip_shared spinlock locking into mutex
c4e773764cead9358fd4b036d1b883fff3968513 mtd: fix a huge latency problem in the MTD CFI flash driver. (partial)

Please, post this message in the kernel-power devel thread so your patches are noticed by the right people.
BTW, have you already tested them with your own build?

There's a kernel-power dev thread where it'd be great to share things like this: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=78371

In future please post patches in kernel-power devel thread or send me it by email.

Did you tested kernel with these patches that does not break anything else?

Now I added patches to kernel-power git repository.
