There were two mistakes in the register-read-on-(un)blank approach.
- First, without proper register (un)locking the value read back will always
be zero, and this is what I missed entirely until just now. Due to this,
the logic could not be verified at all and I tried some bogus checks which
are completely stupid.
- Second, the LCD status bit will always be set to zero when the backlight
has been turned off. Reading the value back during unblank will disable the
LCD unconditionally, regardless of the state it is supposed to be in, since
we set it to zero beforehand.
So this is what we do now:
- create a new variable in struct neofb_par, and use that to determine
whether to read back registers (initialized to true)
- before actually blanking the screen, read back the register to sense any
possible change made through Fn key combo
- use proper neoUnlock() / neoLock() to actually read something
- every call to neofb_blank() determines if we read back next time: blanking
disables readback, unblanking (FB_BLANK_UNBLANK) enables it
This should give us a nice and clean state machine. Has been thoroughly
tested on a Dell Latitude CPiA / NM220 Chip docked to a C/Dock2 with attached
CRT in all possible combinations of LCD/CRT on/off. I changed the config via
Fn key, let the console blank, unblanked by keypress - works flawlessly.

Fix issues with the NeoMagic framebuffer driver.
It nicely complements my previous fix already in linus' tree. The only
thing missing now is that the external CRT will not be activated at neofb
init when external-only is selected, either by register read or
module/kernel parameter.
Testing was done on a Dell Latitude CPi-A/NM2200 chip.
Previous behaviour:
- before booting linux, set the preferred display config X via FN+F8
- boot linux, neofb stores the register values in a private
variable
- change the display config to Y via keystroke
- leave the machine in peace until display is blanked
- touching any key will result in display config X being restored
- booting up, the BIOS will acknowledge config Y, though...
Current behaviour:
At the time of unblanking, config Y is honoured because we now read back
register contents instead of just overwriting them with outdated values.

When the _CRS for a single HPET contains multiple EXTENDED_IRQ resources,
we overwrote hdp->hd_nirqs every time we found one.
So the driver worked when all the IRQs were described in a single
EXTENDED_IRQ resource, but failed when multiple resources were used.
(Strictly speaking, I think the latter is actually more correct, but both
styles have been used.)
Someday we should remove all the ACPI stuff from hpet.c and use PNP driver
registration instead. But currently PNP_MAX_IRQ is 2, and HPETs often have
more IRQs. Hint, hint, Adam :-)

Fix hole where tty structure can be released when reference count is non
zero. Existing code can sleep without tty_sem protection between deciding
to release the tty structure (setting local variables tty_closing and
otty_closing) and setting TTY_CLOSING to prevent further opens. An open
can occur during this interval causing release_dev() to free the tty
structure while it is still referenced.
This should fix bugzilla.kernel.org [Bug 6041] New: Unable to handle kernel
paging request
In Bug 6041, tty_open() oopes on accessing the tty structure it has
successfully claimed. Bug was on SMP machine with the same tty being

When the sclp interface takes very long to serve a request, the sclp core
driver will report a failed request to the sclp tty driver even though the
request is still being processed by the sclp interface. Eventually the sclp
interface completes the request and updates some fields in the request buffer
which leads to a corrupted tty pages list. The next time function
sclp_tty_write_room is called, the corrupted list will be traversed, resulting
in an oops.
To avoid this remove the busy retry limit and increase retry intervals.
