5096aedcd2 USB: Don't rebind before "complete" callback
This patch (as1130) fixes an incompatibility between the new PM
infrastructure and USB power management.  We are not allowed to call
drivers' probe routines during a system sleep transition between the
"prepare" and "complete" callbacks, but that's exactly what we do when
a driver doesn't have full suspend/resume support.  Such drivers are
unbound during the "suspend" call and reprobed during the "resume" call.

The patch causes the reprobe step to be skipped if the "complete"
callback hasn't been issued yet, i.e., if the interface's
dev.power.status field is not equal to DPM_ON.  Thus during the
"resume" callback nothing bad will happen, and during the final
"complete" callback the reprobing will occur as desired.

This fixes the problem reported in Bugzilla #11263.

f2189c477c USB: Add new PM callback methods for USB
This patch (as1129) adds support for the new PM callbacks to usbcore.
The new callbacks merely invoke the same old USB power management
routines as the old ones did.

A minor improvement is that the callbacks are present only in the
"USB-device" device_type structure, rather than in the bus_type
structure.  This way they will be invoked only for USB devices, not
for USB interfaces.  The core USB PM routines automatically handle
suspending and resuming interfaces along with their devices.

55151d7dab USB: Defer Set-Interface for suspended devices
This patch (as1128) fixes one of the problems related to the new PM
infrastructure.  We are not allowed to register new child devices
during the middle of a system sleep transition, but unbinding a USB
driver causes the core to automatically install altsetting 0 and
thereby create new endpoint pseudo-devices.

The patch fixes this problem (and the related problem that installing
altsetting 0 will fail if the device is suspended) by deferring the
Set-Interface call until some later time when it is legal and can
succeed.  Possible later times are: when a new driver is being probed
for the interface, and when the interface is being resumed.

65605ae8e5 USB: Add udev argument to interface suspend/resume functions
This patch (as1127) makes a minor change to the prototypes of the
usb_suspend_interface() and usb_resume_interface() routines.  Now the
usb_device structure is passed as an argument, instead of being
computed on-the-fly from the usb_interface argument.

It makes the code look simpler, even if it really isn't much different
from before.

fb85d99161 MUSB: Fix index register corruption seen with g_ether and Windows host
If Indexed Mode register accesses are enabled, the ep0_rxstate()
function calls musb_g_ep0_giveback() before writing to the CSR
register. When control returns to this ep0_rxstate, the index
register contents are over-written. This causes the CSR register
write to fail.

Fixed by writing the correct value into the index register before
writing to the CSR.

This was observed only in ep0_rxstate() with g_ether loaded and
the device connected to a MS Windows host PC. Anticipatively fixed
ep0_txstate() as well.

c767db0ab4 UIO: generic irq handling for some uio platform devices
This is V3 of uio_pdrv_genirq.c, a platform driver for UIO with
generic IRQ handling code. This driver is very similar to the regular
UIO platform driver, but is only suitable for devices that are
connected to the interrupt controller using unique interrupt lines.

The uio_pdrv_genirq driver includes generic interrupt handling code
which disables the serviced interrupt in the interrupt controller
and makes the user space driver responsible for acknowledging the
interrupt in the device and reenabling the interrupt in the interrupt
controller.

Shared interrupts are not supported since the in-kernel interrupt
handler will disable the interrupt line in the interrupt controller,
and in a shared interrupt configuration this will stop other devices
from delivering interrupts.

3b98aeaf3a PM: don't skip device PM init when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP isn't set and CONFIG_PM is set
This patch (as1124) fixes a couple of bugs in the PM core.  The new
dev->power.status field should be initialized regardless of whether
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is enabled, and similarly dpm_sysfs_add() should be
called whenever CONFIG_PM is enabled.

The patch separates out the call to dpm_sysfs_add() from the call to
device_pm_add().  As a result device_pm_add() can no longer return an
error, so its return type is changed to void.

01dcb0443e rcu: fix synchronize_rcu() so that kernel-doc works
Fix RCU's synchronize_rcu() so that it looks like a C function, enabling
it to be recognized as a function with kernel-doc annotation.

82d63fc9e3 cramfs: fix named-pipe handling
After commit a97c9bf33f (fix cramfs
making duplicate entries in inode cache) in kernel 2.6.14, named-pipe
on cramfs does not work properly.

It seems the commit make all named-pipe on cramfs share their inode
(and named-pipe buffer).

Make ..._test() refuse to merge inodes with ->i_ino == 1, take inode setup
back to get_cramfs_inode() and make ->drop_inode() evict ones with ->i_ino
== 1 immediately.

d847471d06 fbdefio: add set_page_dirty handler to deferred IO FB
Fixes kernel BUG at lib/radix-tree.c:473.

Previously the handler was incidentally provided by tmpfs but this was
removed with:

  commit 14fcc23fdc
  Author: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>
  Date:   Mon Jul 28 15:46:19 2008 -0700

    tmpfs: fix kernel BUG in shmem_delete_inode

relying on this behaviour was incorrect in any case and the BUG also
appeared when the device node was on an ext3 filesystem.

v2: override a_ops at open() time rather than mmap() time to minimise
races per AKPM's concerns.

b42f931737 rtc: rtc-ds1374: fix 'no irq' case handling
On a PowerPC board with ds1374 RTC I'm getting this error while RTC tries
to probe:

rtc-ds1374 0-0068: unable to request IRQ

This happens because I2C probing code (drivers/of/of_i2c.c) is specifying
IRQ0 for 'no irq' case, which is correct.

The driver handles this incorrectly, though. This patch fixes it.

14bac5acfd mm: xip/ext2 fix block allocation race
XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with
create=1.  This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page
lock to prevent such a situation.  This causes ext2 to explode for one
reason or another.

Serialise those calls for the moment.  For common usages today, I suspect
get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks.  In future as XIP
technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require
scalability, and rework the locking to suit.

538f8ea6c8 mm: xip fix fault vs sparse page invalidate race
XIP has a race between sparse pages being inserted into page tables, and
sparse pages being zapped when its time to put a non-sparse page in.

What can happen is that a process can be left with a dangling sparse page
in a MAP_SHARED mapping, while the rest of the world sees the non-sparse
version.  Ie.  data corruption.

Guard these operations with a seqlock, making fault-in-sparse-pages the
slowpath, and try-to-unmap-sparse-pages the fastpath.

479db0bf40 mm: dirty page tracking race fix
There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly
be accounted for.

clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty.

page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and
write protects the pte if it was dirty.  It uses page_check_address to
find the pte.  That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is
not present.  Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then
back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this
should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may
be dirty.

For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte
before setting it to the desired value.  There may also be other code in
core mm or in arch which do similar things.

The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and
loss of dirty page accounting accuracy.  XIP's __xip_unmap could easily
also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can
lead to data corruption.

Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in
page_check_address.

It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and
try_to_unmap.
