patch 0b5316769774d1dc2fdd702e095f9e6992af269a in mainline.
ipw2200 makes extensive use of background scanning when unassociated or
down. Unfortunately, the firmware sends scan completed events many
times per second, which the driver pushes directly up to userspace.
This needlessly wakes up processes listening for wireless events many
times per second. Batch together scan completed events for
non-user-requested scans and send them up to userspace every 4 seconds.
Scan completed events resulting from an SIOCSIWSCAN call are pushed up
without delay.

patch 2e21630ddc3fb717dc645356b75771c6a52dc627 in mainline.
Currently the Geode AES module fails to encrypt or decrypt if
the coherent bits are not set what is currently the case if the
encryption does not occur inplace. However, the encryption works
on my Geode machine _only_ if the coherent bits are always set.

patch 348badf1e825323c419dd118f65783db0f7d2ec8 in mainline.
When a DMA device is unregistered, its reference count is decremented twice
for each channel: Once dma_class_dev_release() and once in
dma_chan_cleanup(). This may result in the DMA device driver's remove()
function completing before all channels have been cleaned up, causing lots
of use-after-free fun.
Fix it by incrementing the device's reference count twice for each
channel during registration.

These blocks were prepared to be written out, but were never handled in
ops_run_biodrain(), so they remain locked forever. The operations flags
are all clear which means handle_stripe() thinks nothing else needs to be
done.
This state suggests that the STRIPE_OP_PREXOR bit was sampled 'set' when it
should not have been. This patch cleans up cases where the code looks at
sh->ops.pending when it should be looking at the consistent stack-based
snapshot of the operations flags.

Instruction pointer returned by profile_pc() can be a random value. This
break the assumption than we can safely set struct op_sample.eip field to a
magic value to signal to the per-cpu buffer reader side special event like
task switch ending up in a segfault in get_task_mm() when profile_pc()
return ~0UL. Fixed by sanitizing the sampled eip and reject/log invalid

patch 0f2cbd38aa377e30df3b7602abed69464d1970aa in mainline.
The sysfs interface to DMI data takes care to not make the system
serial number and UUID world-readable, presumably due to privacy
concerns. For consistency, we should not let the eeprom driver
export these same strings to the world on Sony Vaio laptops.
Instead, only make them readable by root, as we already do for BIOS
passwords.

patch 8b925a3dd8a4d7451092cb9aa11da727ba69e0f0 in mainline.
Recent (i.e. 2005 and later) Sony Vaio laptops have names beginning
with VGN rather than PCG. Update the eeprom driver so that it
recognizes these.
Why this matters: the eeprom driver hides private data from the
EEPROMs it recognizes as Vaio EEPROMs (passwords, serial number...) so
if the driver fails to recognize a Vaio EEPROM as such, the private
data is exposed to the world.

Differs from mainline, but the functionality is already there.
P5W-DH Deluxe has ICH7R which doesn't have PMP support but SIMG 4726
hardwired to the second port of AHCI controller at PCI device 1f.2.
The 4726 doesn't work as PMP but as a storage processor which can do
hardware RAID on downstream ports.
When no device is attached to the downstream port of the 4726, pseudo
ATA device for configuration appears. Unfortunately, ATA emulation on
the device is very lousy and causes long hang during boot.
This patch implements workaround for the board. If the mainboard is
P5W-DH Deluxe (matched using DMI), only hardreset is used on the
second port of AHCI controller @ 1f.2 and the hardreset doesn't depend
on receiving the first FIS and just proceed to IDENTIFY.
This workaround fixes bugzilla #8923.

Backport ATA_FLAG_NO_SRST and ATA_FLAG_ASSUME_ATA. These are
originally link flags (ATA_LFLAG_*) but link abstraction doesn't exist

These new flags don't introduce any behavior change unless set and

- unregister devices on module removal
- don't set TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV twice (removed the one dependent on some

not checking which devices to unregister and which not (simply register

The patch
- Includes the call to capilib_data_b3_req in the spinlock. This routine
in turn calls the offending mq_enqueue routine that triggered the
freeze if not locked. This should also fix other indicators of
incosistent capilib_msgidqueue list, that trigger messages like:
Oct 5 03:05:57 BERL0 kernel: kcapi: msgid 3019 ncci 0x30301 not on queue
that we saw several times a day (usually several in a row).
- Fixes all occurrences of c4_dispatch_tx to be called with active
spinlock, there were some instances where no lock was active. Mostly
these are in very infrequently called routines, so the additional
performance penalty is minimal.

This patch (as999) fixes a problem that sometimes shows up when host
controller driver modules are loaded in the wrong order. If ehci-hcd
happens to initialize an EHCI controller while the companion OHCI or
UHCI controller is in the middle of a port reset, the reset can fail
and the companion may get very confused. The patch adds an
rw-semaphore and uses it to keep EHCI initialization and port resets
mutually exclusive.

patch 5395353e0c8272fe73ac914acd7e4add0da2bef0 in mainline.
Fix a longstanding race in the Ethernet gadget driver, which can cause an
oops on device disconnect. The fix is just to make the TX path check
whether its freelist is empty. That check is otherwise not necessary,
since the queue is always stopped when that list empties (and restarted
when request completion puts an entry back on that freelist).
The race window starts when the network code decides to transmit a packet,
and ends when hard_start_xmit() grabs the freelist lock. When disconnect()
is called inside that window, it shuts down the TX queue and breaks the
otherwise-solid assumption that packets are never sent through a TX queue
that's stopped.

patch a691efa9888e71232dfb4088fb8a8304ffc7b0f9 in mainline.
This patch (as995) cleans up the remains of the former NO_AUTOSUSPEND
quirk. Since autosuspend is disabled by default, we will let
userspace worry about which devices can safely be suspended. Thus the
lengthy series of quirk entries is no longer needed, and neither is
the quirk ID. I suppose someone might eventually run across a hub
that can't be suspended; let's ignore the possibility for now.
The patch also cleans up the hasty way in which autosuspend gets
disabled. Setting udev->autosuspend_delay to -1 wasn't quite right,
because the value is always supposed to be a multiple of HZ. It's
better to leave the delay value alone and set autosuspend_disabled,
which is what the quirk routine used to do.

raid5: fix clearing of biofill operations
This is the correct merge of the two upstream patches for this issue (it
was mis-merged...)
ops_complete_biofill() runs outside of spin_lock(&sh->lock) and clears the
'pending' and 'ack' bits. Since the test_and_ack_op() macro only checks
against 'complete' it can get an inconsistent snapshot of pending work.

patch ae9da83f6d800fe1f3b23bfbc8f7222ad1c5bb74 in mainline.
This patch fixes a bd_mount_sem counter corruption bug in device-mapper.
thaw_bdev() should be called only when freeze_bdev() was called for the
device.
Otherwise, thaw_bdev() will up bd_mount_sem and corrupt the semaphore counter.
struct block_device with the corrupted semaphore may remain in slab cache
and be reused later.
Attached patch will fix it by calling unlock_fs() instead.
unlock_fs() will determine whether it should call thaw_bdev()
by checking the device is frozen or not.
Easy reproducer is:
#!/bin/sh
while [ 1 ]; do
dmsetup --notable create a
dmsetup --nolockfs suspend a
dmsetup remove a
done
It's not easy to see the effect of corrupted semaphore.
So I have tested with putting printk below in bdev_alloc_inode():
if (atomic_read(&ei->bdev.bd_mount_sem.count) != 1)
printk(KERN_DEBUG "Incorrect semaphore count = %d (%p)\n",
atomic_read(&ei->bdev.bd_mount_sem.count),
&ei->bdev);
Without the patch, I saw something like:
Incorrect semaphore count = 17 (f2ab91c0)
With the patch, the message didn't appear.
The bug was introduced in 2.6.16 with this bug fix:
commit d9dde59ba03095e526640988c0fedd75e93bc8b7
Date: Fri Feb 24 13:04:24 2006 -0800
[PATCH] dm: missing bdput/thaw_bdev at removal
Need to unfreeze and release bdev otherwise the bdev inode with
inconsistent state is reused later and cause problem.
and backported to 2.6.15.5.
It occurs only in free_dev(), which is called only when the dm device is
removed. The buggy code is executed only if md->suspended_bdev is
non-NULL and that can happen only when the device was suspended without
noflush.

Upstream as 76d7cc0345a037e8eea426f8abc710abd22946dd
Firmware commands are sent to the HCA by writing multiple words to a
command register block. Access to this block of registers is
serialized with a mutex. However, on large SGI systems, problems were
seen with multiple CPUs issuing FW commands at the same time, because
the writes to the register block may be reordered within the system
interconnect and reach the HCA in a different order than they were
issued (even with the mutex). Fix this by adding an mmiowb() before
dropping the mutex.

Commit 9ead190b ("IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex")
rewrote how userspace objects are looked up in the uverbs module's
idrs, and introduced a severe bug in the process: there is no checking
that an operation is being performed by the right process any more.
Fix this by adding the missing check of uobj->context in __idr_get_uobj().
Apparently everyone is being very careful to only touch their own
objects, because this bug was introduced in June 2006 in 2.6.18, and
has gone undetected until now.

The bank switching code assumes that the bank selector is set to 0
when the driver is loaded. This might not be the case. This is exactly
the same bug as was fixed in the w83627ehf driver two months ago:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=0956895aa6f8dc6a33210967252fd7787652537d
In practice, this bug was causing the sensor thermal types to be
improperly reported for my W83627THF the first time I was loading the
w83627hf driver. From the driver history, I'd say that it has been
broken since September 2005 (when we stopped resetting the chip by
default at driver load.)

We need to read the fan clock dividers at initialization time,
otherwise the code in store_fan_min() may use uninitialized values.
That's pretty much the same bug and same fix as for the w83627ehf
driver last month.

like ipw2200, the driver aggressively auto-scans, requiring
