b9f139a7a6 spi/bfin_spi: convert struct names to something more logical
The current structure names are a bit confusing as to what they represent,
so use better names.

9c4542c7a3 spi/bfin_spi: convert read/write/duplex funcs to a dedicated ops structure
Rather than having to look up the same 3 sets of functions at the same
time, just use an ops structure so we only need to set one pointer.

201bbc6fd8 spi/bfin_spi: drop custom cs_change_per_word support
As David points out, the cs_change_per_word option isn't standard, nor is
anyone actually using it.  So punt all of the dead code considering it
makes up ~10% of the code size.

8221610e99 spi/bfin_spi: fix CS handling
The CS helper functions were toggling both the Flag Enable and the Flag
Value bits, but the Flag Value bit is ignored if the corresponding Flag
Enable bit is cleared.  So under high speed transactions, the CS sometimes
would not toggle properly.

Since it makes no sense to toggle the Flag Enable bit dynamically when we
actually want to control the Flag Value, do this when setting up the device
and then only handle toggling of the CS value during runtime.

f6a6d96685 spi/bfin_spi: utilize the SPI interrupt in PIO mode
The current behavior in PIO mode is to poll the SPI status registers which
can obviously lead to higher latencies when doing a lot of SPI traffic.
There is a SPI interrupt which can be used instead to signal individual
completion of transactions.

bb8beecd98 spi/bfin_spi: force sane master-mode state at boot
We should make sure the SPI controller is in a sane state in case the
boot loader left it in a crappy state.  Such as DMA pending which causes
interrupts to fire on us.

When setting a sane initial state, do not default to slave mode.  If we
do, then the SPI peripheral may implicitly take over the SPISS pin which
other things might be using.

For example, the BF533-STAMP uses this pin as a GPIO to control switching
between ethernet and flash.  If the SPI peripheral controls the output
state instead, the ethernet is no longer accessible.

aa73aec6c3 ALSA: rawmidi: fix oops (use after free) when unloading a driver module
When a driver module is unloaded and the last still open file is a raw
MIDI device, the card and its devices will be actually freed in the
snd_card_file_remove() call when that file is closed.  Afterwards, rmidi
and rmidi->card point into freed memory, so the module pointer is likely
to be garbage.

  "Sorry, reordering breakage.  In the signals tree here I have

   static inline void sig_set_blocked(struct sigset_t *set)

   and it's used all over the place (including quite a few places where
   we currently have sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, set, NULL), which is what
   it's equivalent to).  With that done, m32r doesn't use _BLOCKABLE
   anywhere, so it got removed.  And that chunk got picked when I'd been

79b5dc0c64 types.h: define __aligned_u64 and expose to userspace
We currently have a kernel internal type called aligned_u64 which aligns
__u64's on 8 bytes boundaries even on systems which would normally align
them on 4 byte boundaries.  This patch creates a new type __aligned_u64
which does the same thing but which is exposed to userspace rather than
being kernel internal.

1c8cf9c997 mmc: sdio: fix SDIO suspend/resume regression
Fix SDIO suspend/resume regression introduced by 4c2ef25fe0 "mmc: fix
all hangs related to mmc/sd card insert/removal during suspend/resume":

  PM: Syncing filesystems ... done.
  Freezing user space processes ... (elapsed 0.01 seconds) done.
  Freezing remaining freezable tasks ... (elapsed 0.01 seconds) done.
  Suspending console(s) (use no_console_suspend to debug)
  pm_op(): platform_pm_suspend+0x0/0x5c returns -38
  PM: Device pxa2xx-mci.0 failed to suspend: error -38
  PM: Some devices failed to suspend

4c2ef25fe0 moved the card removal/insertion mechanism out of MMC's
suspend/resume path and into pm notifiers (mmc_pm_notify), and that
broke SDIO's expectation that mmc_suspend_host() will remove the card,
and squash the error, in case -ENOSYS is returned from the bus suspend
handler (mmc_sdio_suspend() in this case).

mmc_sdio_suspend() is using this whenever at least one of the card's SDIO
function drivers does not have suspend/resume handlers - in that case
it is agreed to force removal of the entire card.

This patch fixes this regression by trivially bringing back that part of
mmc_suspend_host(), which was removed by 4c2ef25fe0.

47526903fe ubd: fix incorrect sector handling during request restart
Commit f81f2f7c (ubd: drop unnecessary rq->sector manipulation)
dropped request->sector manipulation in preparation for global request
handling cleanup; unfortunately, it incorrectly assumed that the
updated sector wasn't being used.

ubd tries to issue as many requests as possible to io_thread.  When
issuing fails due to memory pressure or other reasons, the device is
put on the restart list and issuing stops.  On IO completion, devices
on the restart list are scanned and IO issuing is restarted.

ubd issues IOs sg-by-sg and issuing can be stopped in the middle of a
request, so each device on the restart queue needs to remember where
to restart in its current request.  ubd needs to keep track of the
issue position itself because,

* blk_rq_pos(req) is now updated by the block layer to keep track of
  _completion_ position.

* Multiple io_req's for the current request may be in flight, so it's
  difficult to tell where blk_rq_pos(req) currently is.

Add ubd->rq_pos to keep track of the issue position and use it to
correctly restart io_req issue.

3aa0ce825a Un-inline the core-dump helper functions
Tony Luck reports that the addition of the access_ok() check in commit
0eead9ab41 ("Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumps") broke the
ia64 compile due to missing the necessary header file includes.

Rather than add yet another include (<asm/unistd.h>) to make everything
happy, just uninline the silly core dump helper functions and move the
bodies to fs/exec.c where they make a lot more sense.

dump_seek() in particular was too big to be an inline function anyway,
and none of them are in any way performance-critical.  And we really
don't need to mess up our include file headers more than they already
are.

0eead9ab41 Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumps
akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct
dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes
back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping
code).  Just remove it.

Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write().  It probably doesn't
matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he
points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ...

[ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of
  calling ->write directly.  That also does the whole fsnotify and write
  statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ]

And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation
code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even
compile)

c50a898fd4 ioat2: fix performance regression
Commit 0793448 "DMAENGINE: generic channel status v2" changed the interface for
how dma channel progress is retrieved.  It inadvertently exported an internal
helper function ioat_tx_status() instead of ioat_dma_tx_status().  The latter
polls the hardware to get the latest completion state, while the helper just
evaluates the current state without touching hardware.  The effect is that we
end up waiting for completion timeouts or descriptor allocation errors before
the completion state is updated.

iperf (before fix):
[SUM]  0.0-41.3 sec   364 MBytes  73.9 Mbits/sec

iperf (after fix):
[SUM]  0.0- 4.5 sec   499 MBytes   940 Mbits/sec

This is a regression starting with 2.6.35.

As of commit 43a9aa64a2 "NFSD:
Fill in WCC data for REMOVE, RMDIR, MKNOD, and MKDIR", we sometimes call
fh_unlock on a filehandle that isn't fully initialized.

We should fix up the callers, but as a quick fix it is also sufficient
just to remove this assertion.

6fcc040f02 net: allow FEC driver to use fixed PHY support
At least one board using the FEC driver does not have a conventional
PHY attached to it, it is directly connected to a somewhat simple
ethernet switch (the board is the SnapGear/LITE, and the attached
4-port ethernet switch is a RealTek RTL8305). This switch does not
present the usual register interface of a PHY, it presents nothing.
So a PHY scan will find nothing - it finds ID's of 0 for each PHY
on the attached MII bus.

After the FEC driver was changed to use phylib for supporting PHYs
it no longer works on this particular board/switch setup.

Add code support to use a fixed phy if no PHY is found on the MII bus.
This is based on the way the cpmac.c driver solved this same problem.

10d48b3934 ARM: 6440/1: ep93xx: DMA: fix channel_disable
When channel_disable() is called, it disables per channel interrupts and
waits until channels state becomes STATE_STALL, and then disables the
channel. Now, if the DMA transfer is disabled while the channel is in
STATE_NEXT we will not wait anything and disable the channel immediately.
This seems to cause weird data corruption for example in audio transfers.

Fix is to wait while we are in STATE_NEXT or STATE_ON and only then
disable the channel.

d01343244a ring-buffer: Fix typo of time extends per page
Time stamps for the ring buffer are created by the difference between
two events. Each page of the ring buffer holds a full 64 bit timestamp.
Each event has a 27 bit delta stamp from the last event. The unit of time
is nanoseconds, so 27 bits can hold ~134 milliseconds. If two events
happen more than 134 milliseconds apart, a time extend is inserted
to add more bits for the delta. The time extend has 59 bits, which
is good for ~18 years.

Currently the time extend is committed separately from the event.
If an event is discarded before it is committed, due to filtering,
the time extend still exists. If all events are being filtered, then
after ~134 milliseconds a new time extend will be added to the buffer.

This can only happen till the end of the page. Since each page holds
a full timestamp, there is no reason to add a time extend to the
beginning of a page. Time extends can only fill a page that has actual
data at the beginning, so there is no fear that time extends will fill
more than a page without any data.

When reading an event, a loop is made to skip over time extends
since they are only used to maintain the time stamp and are never
given to the caller. As a paranoid check to prevent the loop running
forever, with the knowledge that time extends may only fill a page,
a check is made that tests the iteration of the loop, and if the
iteration is more than the number of time extends that can fit in a page
a warning is printed and the ring buffer is disabled (all of ftrace
is also disabled with it).

There is another event type that is called a TIMESTAMP which can
hold 64 bits of data in the theoretical case that two events happen
18 years apart. This code has not been implemented, but the name
of this event exists, as well as the structure for it. The
size of a TIMESTAMP is 16 bytes, where as a time extend is only
8 bytes. The macro used to calculate how many time extends can fit on
a page used the TIMESTAMP size instead of the time extend size
cutting the amount in half.

The following test case can easily trigger the warning since we only
need to have half the page filled with time extends to trigger the
warning:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
 # echo function > current_tracer
 # echo 'common_pid < 0' > events/ftrace/function/filter
 # echo > trace
 # echo 1 > trace_marker
 # sleep 120
 # cat trace

Enabling the function tracer and then setting the filter to only trace
functions where the process id is negative (no events), then clearing
the trace buffer to ensure that we have nothing in the buffer,
then write to trace_marker to add an event to the beginning of a page,
sleep for 2 minutes (only 35 seconds is probably needed, but this
guarantees the bug), and then finally reading the trace which will
trigger the bug.

This patch fixes the typo and prevents the false positive of that warning.
