asm-generic: merge branch 'master' of torvalds/linux-2.6

Fixes a merge conflict against the x86 tree caused by a fix to
atomic.h which I renamed to atomic_long.h.

+ * (2) "hash" is full_name_hash(name, strlen(name)).
+ *     This allows tomoyo_pathcmp() to compare by hash before actually compare

+ * (3) "const_len" is the length of the initial segment of "name" which
+ *     consists entirely of non wildcard characters. In other words, the length
+ *     which we can compare two strings using strncmp().
+ * (4) "is_dir" is a bool which is true if "name" ends with "/",
+ *     false otherwise.
+ *     TOMOYO distinguishes directory and non-directory. A directory ends with
+ *     "/" and non-directory does not end with "/".
+ * (5) "is_patterned" is a bool which is true if "name" contains wildcard
+ *     characters, false otherwise. This allows TOMOYO to use "hash" and
+ *     strcmp() for string comparison if "is_patterned" is false.
+ * (6) "depth" is calculated using the number of "/" characters in "name".
+ *     This allows TOMOYO to avoid comparing two pathnames which never match
+ *     (e.g. whether "/var/www/html/index.html" matches "/tmp/sh-thd-\$").
