The usb-serial-generic driver uses different device IDs for its USB
matching and its serial matching. This can lead to problems: The
driver can end up getting bound to a USB interface without being
allowed to bind to the corresponding serial port.
This patch (as1557) fixes the problem by using the same device ID
table (the one that can be altered by the "vendor=" and "product="
module parameters) for both purposes. The unused table is removed.
Now the driver will bind only to the intended devices.

We need to make sure that the USB serial driver we find
matches the USB driver whose probe we are currently
executing. Otherwise we will end up with USB serial
devices bound to the correct serial driver but wrong
USB driver.
An example of such cross-probing, where the usbserial_generic
USB driver has found the sierra serial driver:

So we end up with a mismatch between the USB driver and the
USB serial driver. The reason for the above is simple: The
USB driver probe will succeed if *any* registered serial
driver matches, and will use that serial driver for all
serial driver functions.
This makes ref counting go wrong. We count the USB driver
as used, but not the USB serial driver. This may result
in Oops'es as demonstrated by Johan Hovold <jhovold@gmail.com>:

Fix by only evaluating serial drivers pointing back to the
USB driver we are currently probing. This still allows two
or more drivers to match the same device, running their
serial driver probes to sort out which one to use.

This patch (as1558) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers:
The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the
ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers. Users have been forced
to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep.
After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't
like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3
power state. Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing
we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3
during system sleep.
The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present,
and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set.
Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend.
However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote
wakeup requests while the system is asleep. Hence USB wakeup is not
functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state
of affairs.
A similar patch has already been applied as commit
151b612847 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during
suspend on ASUS computers). The patch supersedes that one and reverts
it. There are two differences:
The old patch added the flag at the USB level; this patch
adds it at the PCI level.
The old patch applied to all chipsets with the same vendor,
subsystem vendor, and product IDs; this patch makes an
exception for a known-good system (based on DMI information).

This reverts commit 9e612a008f.
It incorrectly finds VGA connectors where none are attached, apparently
not noticing that nothing replied to the EDID queries, and happily using
the default EDID modes that have nothing to do with actual hardware.
That in turn then causes X to fall down to the lowest common
denominator, which is usually the default 1024x768 mode that is in the
default EDID and pretty much anything supports).
I'd suggest that if not relying on the HDP pin, the code should at least
check whether it gets valid EDID data back, rather than just assume
there's something on the VGA connector.

This reverts commit 7732a557b1 (and commit
3f50fff4da, which was a follow-up
cleanup).
We're chasing an elusive bug that Dave Jones can apparently reproduce
using his system call fuzzer tool, and that looks like some kind of
locking ordering problem on the directory i_mutex chain. Our i_mutex
locking is rather complex, and depends on the topological ordering of
the directories, which is why we have been very wary of splicing
directory entries around.
Of course, we really don't want to ever see aliased unconnected
directories anyway, so none of this should ever happen, but this revert
aims to basically get us back to a known older state.
Bruce points to some of the previous discussion at
http://marc.info/?i=<20110310105821.GE22723@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>
and in particular a long post from Neil:
http://marc.info/?i=<20110311150749.2fa2be66@notabene.brown>
It should be noted that it's possible that Dave's problems come from
other changes altohgether, including possibly just the fact that Dave
constantly is teachning his fuzzer new tricks. So what appears to be a
new bug could in fact be an old one that just gets newly triggered, but
reverting these patches as "still under heavy discussion" is the right
thing regardless.

It was reported that compiling for 32-bit caused a bunch of
section mismatch warnings:
VDSOSYM arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-syms.lds
LD arch/x86/vdso/built-in.o
LD arch/x86/built-in.o

.init.text:nmi_unk_cb() The variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399
references the function __init nmi_unk_cb() [...]
Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of
the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler. The
reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the
init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is.
To resolve this, I created a new #define,
register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as
__initdata to resolve the mismatch. This #define should only be
used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called
during init of the kernel.
Big thanks to Jan Beulich for decoding this for me as I didn't
have a clue what was going on.

This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.
According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.
This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.
The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.
I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for
tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2
broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the
'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.
But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

Commit 026cee0086 "params:
<level>_initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module
parameters to level 0. And we call those level 0 calls where we used
to, early in start_kernel().
We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled
module_params before the corresponding initcall. Unfortunately level
0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice.
(Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does).
Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls.

This reverts 68568add2c ("powerpc/time: Remove unnecessary sanity check
of decrementer expiration"). We do need to check whether we have reached
the expiration time of the next event, because we sometimes get an early
decrementer interrupt, most notably when we set the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise(). The effect of not having the sanity check is that
if timer_interrupt() gets called early, we leave the decrementer set to
its maximum value, which means we then don't get any more decrementer
interrupts for about 4 seconds (or longer, depending on timebase
frequency). I saw these pauses as a consequence of getting a stray
hypervisor decrementer interrupt left over from exiting a KVM guest.
This isn't quite a straight revert because of changes to the surrounding
code, but it restores the same algorithm as was previously used.

This reverts commit 40af1bbdca.
It's horribly and utterly broken for at least the following reasons:
- calling sync_mm_rss() from mmput() is fundamentally wrong, because
there's absolutely no reason to believe that the task that does the
mmput() always does it on its own VM. Example: fork, ptrace, /proc -
you name it.
- calling it *after* having done mmdrop() on it is doubly insane, since
the mm struct may well be gone now.
- testing mm against NULL before you call it is insane too, since a
NULL mm there would have caused oopses long before.
.. and those are just the three bugs I found before I decided to give up
looking for me and revert it asap. I should have caught it before I
even took it, but I trusted Andrew too much.

Ext3 filesystems that are converted to use as many ext4 file system
features as possible will enable uninit_bg to speed up e2fsck times.
These file systems will have a native ext3 layout of inode tables and
block allocation bitmaps (as opposed to ext4's flex_bg layout).
Unfortunately, in these cases, when first allocating a block in an
uninitialized block group, ext4 would incorrectly calculate the number
of free blocks in that block group, and then errorneously report that
the file system was corrupt:
EXT4-fs error (device vdd): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:741: group 30, 32254 clusters in bitmap, 32258 in gd
This problem can be reproduced via:
mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt
fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test
The problem was caused by a bone headed mistake in the check to see if a
particular metadata block was part of the block group.

shmem: replace_page must flush_dcache and others
mm->rss_stat counters have per-task delta: task->rss_stat. Before
changing task->mm pointer the kernel must flush this delta with
sync_mm_rss().
do_exit() already calls sync_mm_rss() to flush the rss-counters before
committing the rss statistics into task->signal->maxrss, taskstats,
audit and other stuff. Unfortunately the kernel does this before
calling mm_release(), which can call put_user() for processing
task->clear_child_tid. So at this point we can trigger page-faults and
task->rss_stat becomes non-zero again. As a result mm->rss_stat becomes
inconsistent and check_mm() will print something like this:
| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:1 val:-1
| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:2 val:1
This patch moves sync_mm_rss() into mm_release(), and moves mm_release()
out of do_exit() and calls it earlier. After mm_release() there should
be no pagefaults.

The memory the parameter __key points to is used as an iterator in
btree_get_prev(), so if we save off a bkey() pointer in retry_key and
then assign that to __key, we'll end up corrupting the btree internals
when we do eg
longcpy(__key, bkey(geo, node, i), geo->keylen);
to return the key value. What we should do instead is use longcpy() to
copy the key value that retry_key points to __key.
This can cause a btree to get corrupted by seemingly read-only
operations such as btree_for_each_safe.
