USB: update documentation for usbmon

2012-01-12T19:35:06Z

commit d8cae98cddd286e38db1724dda1b0e7b467f9237 upstream. The documentation for usbmon is out of date; the usbfs "devices" file now exists in /sys/kernel/debug/usb rather than /proc/bus/usb. This patch (as1505) updates the documentation accordingly, and also mentions that the necessary information can be found by running lsusb.

2012-01-12T19:34:54Z

commit 2eb7f204db51969ea558802a6601d79c2fb273b9 upstream. The Japanese/Korean/Chinese versions still need updating. Also, the stable kernel 2.6.x.y descriptions are out of date and should be updated as well. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

PM / Runtime: Automatically retry failed autosuspends

2011-11-11T17:36:57Z

commit 886486b792e4f6f96d4fbe8ec5bf20811cab7d6a upstream. Originally, the runtime PM core would send an idle notification whenever a suspend attempt failed. The idle callback routine could then schedule a delayed suspend for some time later. However this behavior was changed by commit f71648d73c1650b8b4aceb3856bebbde6daa3b86 (PM / Runtime: Remove idle notification after failing suspend). No notifications were sent, and there was no clear mechanism to retry failed suspends. This caused problems for the usbhid driver, because it fails autosuspend attempts as long as a key is being held down. Therefore this patch (as1492) adds a mechanism for retrying failed autosuspends. If the callback routine updates the last_busy field so that the next autosuspend expiration time is in the future, the autosuspend will automatically be rescheduled.

hwspinlock/core: use a mutex to protect the radix tree

2011-11-11T17:36:31Z

commit 93b465c2e186d96fb90012ba0f9372eb9952e732 upstream. Since we're using non-atomic radix tree allocations, we should be protecting the tree using a mutex and not a spinlock. Non-atomic allocations and process context locking is good enough, as the tree is manipulated only when locks are registered/ unregistered/requested/freed. The locks themselves are still protected by spinlocks of course, and mutexes are not involved in the locking/unlocking paths.

Update email address for stable patch submission

2011-11-11T17:35:46Z

commit 5fa224295f0e0358c8bc0e5390702338df889def upstream. The stable@kernel.org email address has been replaced with the stable@vger.kernel.org mailing list. Change the stable kernel rules to reference the new list instead of the semi-defunct email alias. Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

lguest: allow booting guest with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y

2011-08-17T17:55:53Z

commit e22a539824e8ddb82c87b4f415165ede82e6ab56 upstream. The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE code tries to align the unpack destination to the value of 'kernel_alignment' in the setup_hdr. If that's 0, it tries to unpack to address 0, which in fact causes the gunzip code to call 'error("Out of memory while allocating output buffer")'. The bootloader (ie. the lguest Launcher in this case) should be doing setting this field; the normal bzImage is 16M, we can use the same.
