Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc-2.6

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc-2.6:
  sparc64: Get rid of indirect p1275 PROM call buffer.
  sparc64: Fill a missing delay slot.
  sparc64: Make lock backoff really a NOP on UP builds.
  sparc64: simple microoptimizations for atomic functions
  sparc64: Make rwsems 64-bit.
  sparc64: Really fix atomic64_t interface types.
