Jay Vosburgh c4f283b1f2 bonding: fix double dev_add_pack
Bonding can erroneously register the same packet_type to receive
ARPs (for use by ARP validation): once at device open time, and once via
sysfs.  Since sysfs can change the validate setting (and thus register
or unregister) at any time, a flag is needed to synchronize with device
open in order to avoid double registrations, and the simplest place is
within the packet_type structure itself.  Double unregister is not an
issue.

	Bug reported by Ulrich Oelmann <ulrich.oelmann@web.de>.

Takashi Iwai 2f24d159d5 [ALSA] cmipci - Allow to disable integrated FM port
The driver didn't allow to disable the integrated FM port (if available),
and this annoyed people who don't want FM port.  Now fm_port=0 disables
the FM port unconditionally.  fm_port=1 is used for enabling the integrated
FM port (as default).
Also fixed the documentation about this option.
Fix ALSA bug#2491.

This patch fixes a logic error introduced in the previous patch.
Without it, speaker automute mutes the speakers when headphones are
removed and unmutes when headphones are plugged in.

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 63ed71019c pata_pdc202xx_old: fix data corruption and other problems
Fix wrong "port" calculations in pdc202xx_{configure_piomode,set_dmamode}()
They were broken for all configurations except one (master device on primary
channel, no other devices) and as a result device settings + PIO/DMA timings
were being programmed into the wrong PCI registers.  This could result in
a large variety of problems including data corruption, hangs etc. (depending
on devices used and your luck :-).

  ap->port_no   ap->devno   used PCI registers   correct PCI registers
            0           0            0x60-0x62               0x60-0x62
            0           1            0x62-0x64               0x64-0x66
            1           0            0x64-0x66               0x68-0x6a
            1           1            0x66-0x68               0x6c-0x6e

Also forward port recent fixes from drivers/ide pdc202xx_old driver:

* fix XFER_MW_DMA0 timings (they were overclocked, use the official ones)

* fix bitmasks for clearing bits of register B:

  - when programming DMA mode bit 0x10 of register B was cleared which
    resulted in overclocked PIO timing setting (iff PIO0 was used)

  - when programming PIO mode bits 0x18 weren't cleared so suboptimal
    timings were used for PIO1-4 if PIO0 was previously set (bit 0x10)
    and for PIO0/3/4 if PIO1/2 was previously set (bit 0x08)

and finally bump driver version.

Mikael Pettersson 8b966dddc2 pata_legacy: fix io/irq mismatch
pata_legacy fails to detect the disk on my old ISA/VLB 486:
it starts to probe io=0x1f0 ctr=0x3f6 irq=15, complains
loudly about IDENTIFYs timing out, and finally fails.
(Sorry I couldn't capture the kernel's boot messages.)

It turns out that the driver's mapping from io to irq in
legacy_irq[] is wrong: index 0 for io=0x1f0 has irq=15 but
should have irq=14, and index 1 for io=0x170 has irq=14 but
should have irq=15. This is confirmed by a comparison with
include/asm-i386/ide.h:ide_default_irq().

This patch swaps the first two elements in legacy_irq[],
which makes pata_legacy work on my 486.

Gerald Schaefer 482b05dd53 [S390] Fixed handling of access register mode faults.
Replaced check_user_space() + __check_access_register with the new
check_space(). The old functions made wrong assumptions about kernel
and user space when the kernel and user address spaces are switched
(kernel in home space, user in primary/secondary space).
Secondly the user process can switch to the accress register mode if
it is running in primary or secondary mode. In addition it can load
an arbitrary value to the access registers. If any other value than
0 for primary space or 1 for secondary space is loaded and memory
is accessed using the base register related to the access register,
the program should be terminated with a SIGSEGV. To achieve that the
DUALD pointer in the DUCT and the PSALD pointer in the PASTE need
to point to an array of 8 invalid access-list entries to get a
ALEN-translation exception if an invalid alet is used.

Stefan Weinhuber 046f3e821f [S390] dasd: Use default recovery for SNSS requests
For extended error reporting we sometimes have to start an
Sense Subsystem Status request (SNSS). When this request needs
to be recovered for some reason, the recovery request will
fail with 'command reject'.
Our usual recovery procedure will retry the failed request by
creating a new request and chaining the failed request from that
one. SNSS requests, though, must not be chained from anything,
so the recovery request will fail permanently.
Use the default recovery for SNSS request, which will just restart
the original request without further ado.

Patrick McHardy ec68e97ded [NETFILTER]: conntrack: fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup endless loops
Fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup unconfirmed list handling:

- unconfirmed entries can not be killed manually, they are removed on
  confirmation or final destruction of the conntrack entry, which means
  we might iterate forever without making forward progress.

  This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which
  holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when
  the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different
  packet is handled.

- taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the
  locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and
  another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry

What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash
table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be
destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped.

Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark
them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

Just define a local {claim,release}_dma_lock() implementation
for the floppy driver to use so we don't need to define and
export to modules the silly dma_spin_lock.

Ingo Molnar c3442e2965 [PATCH] paravirt: re-enable COMPAT_VDSO
CONFIG_PARAVIRT broke old glibc bootup: it silently turned off the
selectability of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO and thus rendered distro kernels
unbootable on old-style VDSO glibc setups.

the proper solution is to keep COMPAT_VDSO available - if a hypervisor
needs any modification of that concept then we'll judge those changes in
full context, once those changes are submitted.

Ingo Molnar 6ebf622b25 [PATCH] disable NMI watchdog by default
there's a new NMI watchdog related problem: KVM crashes on certain
bzImages because ... we enable the NMI watchdog by default (even if the
user does not ask for it) , and no other OS on this planet does that so
KVM doesnt have emulation for that yet. So KVM injects a #GP, which
crashes the Linux guest:

 general protection fault: 0000 [#1]
 PREEMPT SMP
 Modules linked in:
 CPU:    0
 EIP:    0060:[<c011a8ae>]    Not tainted VLI
 EFLAGS: 00000246   (2.6.20-rc5-rt0 #3)
 EIP is at setup_apic_nmi_watchdog+0x26d/0x3d3

and no, i did /not/ request an nmi_watchdog on the boot command line!

Solution: turn off that darn thing! It's a debug tool, not a 'make life
harder' tool!!

with this patch the KVM guest boots up just fine.

And with this my laptop (Lenovo T60) also stopped its sporadic hard
hanging (sometimes in acpi_init(), sometimes later during bootup,
sometimes much later during actual use) as well. It hung with both
nmi_watchdog=1 and nmi_watchdog=2, so it's generally the fact of NMI
injection that is causing problems, not the NMI watchdog variant, nor
any particular bootup code.

[ NMI breaks on some systems, esp in combination with SMM -Arjan ]

do not use default=y for CONFIG_VMI (we do not do that for any driver or
special-hardware feature): the overwhelming majority of Linux users does
not need it, and interested users and distributions can enable it
as-needed.

Ingo Molnar e9417fb324 [PATCH] paravirt: clarify VMI description
Clarify the description of the CONFIG_VMI option: describe the reality
that VMI is a VMWare-only interface for now. Once that changes and
another hypervisor adopts the VMI ABI we can change the text.

As can be seen from the Xen paravirtualization patches submitted to lkml
the Xen project has chosen its own, non-VMI interface between Xen and
the para-Linux - so remove Xen from the description.

David Miller 8690ba446d [PATCH] video/aty/mach64_ct.c: fix bogus delay loop
CT based mach64 cards were reported to hang on sparc64 boxes when
compiled with gcc-4.1.x and later.

Looking at this piece of code, it's no surprise.  A critical
delay was implemented as an empty for() loop, and gcc 4.0.x
and previous did not optimize it away, so we did get a delay.

But gcc-4.1.x and later can optimize it away, and we get crashes.

Use a real udelay() to fix this.  Fix verified on SunBlade100.
