mtd: maps: add mtd-ram support to physmap_of
Use physmap_of to access RAMs as mtd and add documenation for it. This approach
is a lot less intrusive as adding an of-wrapper around plat-ram.c. As most
extensions of plat-ram.c (e.g. custom map-functions) can't be mapped to the

errors are silently ignored or logged, but then still ignored in the

This patch turns on parallel scanning for the ata_piix driver.
This driver is used on most netbooks (no AHCI for cheap storage it seems).
The scan is the dominating time factor in the kernel boot for these
devices; with this flag it gets cut in half for the device I used
for testing (eeepc).
Alan took a look at the driver source and concluded that it ought to be safe
to do for this driver. Alan has also checked with the hardware team.
and it is all true but once we put all things together additional
constraints for PATA controllers show up (some hardware registers
have per-host not per-port atomicity) and we risk misprogramming
the controller.
I used the following test to check whether the issue is real:
/* Ensure the UDMA bit is off - it will be turned back on if
UDMA is selected */
and it indeed triggered the error message.
Lets fix all such races by adding an extra locking to ->set_piomode
and ->set_dmamode methods for PATA controllers.
[ Alan: would be better to take the host lock in libata-core for these
cases so that we fix all the adapters in one swoop. "Looks fine as a
temproary quickfix tho" ]

AFS: Stop readlink() on AFS crashing due to NULL 'file' ptr
kAFS crashes when asked to read a symbolic link because page_getlink()
passes a NULL file pointer to read_mapping_page(), but afs_readpage()
expects a file pointer from which to extract a key.
Modify afs_readpage() to request the appropriate key from the calling
process's keyrings if a file struct is not supplied with one attached.

inotify: Ensure we alwasy write the terminating NULL.
Before the rewrite copy_event_to_user always wrote a terqminating '\0'
byte to user space after the filename. Since the rewrite that
terminating byte was skipped if your filename is exactly a multiple of
event_size. Ouch!
So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to
set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the
strange nul_inotify_event. I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero
will never exceed 16 and even if it doesn't clear_user should be more
efficient and a more accurate reflection of what the code is trying to
do.

inotify: fix locking around inotify watching in the idr
The are races around the idr storage of inotify watches. It's possible
that a watch could be found from sys_inotify_rm_watch() in the idr, but it
could be removed from the idr before that code does it's removal. Move the
locking and the refcnt'ing so that these have to happen atomically.

inotify: do not BUG on idr entries at inotify destruction
If an inotify watch is left in the idr when an fsnotify group is destroyed
this will lead to a BUG. This is not a dangerous situation and really
indicates a programming bug and leak of memory. This patch changes it to
use a WARN and a printk rather than killing people's boxes.

leds: after setting inverted attribute, we must update the LED

leds: fix multiple requests and releases of IRQ for GPIO LED Trigger
When setting the same GPIO number, multiple IRQ shared requests will be
done without freing the previous request. It will also try to free a
failed request or an already freed IRQ if 0 was written to the gpio file.
All these oops and leaks were fixed with the following solution: keep the
previous allocated GPIO (if any) still allocated in case the new request
fails. The alternative solution would desallocate the previous allocated
GPIO and set gpio as 0.

This failure is very common on many platforms. Handling it in the ACPI
processor driver is enough, and we don't need a warning message unless

ACPI processor: force throttling state when BIOS returns incorrect value
If the BIOS reports an invalid throttling state (which seems to be
fairly common after system boot), a reset is done to state T0.
Because of a check in acpi_processor_get_throttling_ptc(), the reset
never actually gets executed, which results in the error reoccurring
on every access of for example /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling.
Add a 'force' option to acpi_processor_set_throttling() to ensure
the reset really takes effect.
This patch, together with the next one, fixes a regression introduced in
2.6.30, listed on the regression list. They have been available for 2.5
months now in bugzilla, but have not been picked up, despite various
reminders and without any reason given.
Google shows that numerous people are hitting this issue. The issue is in
itself relatively minor, but the bug in the code is clear.
The patches have been in all my kernels and today testing has shown that
throttling works correctly with the patches applied when the system
overheats (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13918#c14).

wmi: fix kernel panic when stack protection enabled.
Summary:
Kernel panic arise when stack protection is enabled, since strncat will
add a null terminating byte '\0'; So in functions
like this one (wmi_query_block):
char wc[4]="WC";
....
strncat(method, block->object_id, 2);
...
the length of wc should be n+1 (wc[5]) or stack protection
fault will arise. This is not noticeable when stack protection is
disabled,but , isn't good either.
Config used: [CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_ALL=y,
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y]

thermal_sys: check get_temp return value
The return value of the get_temp function is not checked when doing a
thermal zone update. This may lead to a critical shutdown if get_temp
fails and the content of the temp variable is incorrectly set higher than
the critical trip point.
This has been observed on a system with incorrect ACPI implementation
where the corresponding methods were not serialized and therefore
sometimes triggered ACPI errors (AE_ALREADY_EXISTS). The following
critical shutdowns indicated a temperature of 2097 C, which was obviously
wrong.
The patch adds a return value check that jumps over all trip point
evaluations printing a warning if get_temp fails. The trip points are
evaluated again on the next polling interval with successful get_temp
execution.
