The start_ro modules parameter can be used to force arrays to be
started in 'auto-readonly' in which they are read-only until the first
write. This ensures that no resync/recovery happens until something
else writes to the device. This is important for resume-from-disk
off an md array.
However if an array is started 'readonly' (by writing 'readonly' to
the 'array_state' sysfs attribute) we want it to be really 'readonly',
not 'auto-readonly'.
So strengthen the condition to only set auto-readonly if the
array is not already read-only.

evms configures md arrays by:
open device
send ioctl
close device
for each different ioctl needed.
Since 2.6.29, the device can disappear after the 'close'
unless a significant configuration has happened to the device.
The change made by "SET_ARRAY_INFO" can too minor to stop the device
from disappearing, but important enough that losing the change is bad.
So: make sure SET_ARRAY_INFO sets mddev->ctime, and keep the device
active as long as ctime is non-zero (it gets zeroed with lots of other
things when the array is stopped).
This is suitable for -stable kernels since 2.6.29.

Update the Kconfig help texts of both stacks to encourage a general move
from the older to the newer drivers. However, do not label ieee1394 as
"Obsolete" yet, as the newer drivers have not been deployed as default
stack in the majority of Linux distributions yet, and those who start
doing so now may still want to install the old drivers as fallback for
unforeseen issues.
Since Linux 2.6.32, FireWire audio devices can be driven by the newer
firewire driver stack too, hence remove an outdated comment about audio
devices. Also remove comments about library versions since the 2nd
generation of libraw1394 and libdc1394 is now in common use; details on
library versions can be read at the wiki link from the help texts.

drivers for quite some time; submitters are not required to Cc them on

The linux1394.org domain has been dead for a while and is no longer
under control of a Linux developer. The current web site of the

The classic drivers/ieee1394/ stack is now obsolete from the development
point of view, though still a useful alternative in productive use. But
nobody should attempt to submit style cleanup patches for it or to
develop new drivers on top of this stack, hence mark its MAINTAINERS
entry as Obsolete.
drivers/ieee1394/raw1394*, like the rest of the old stack, does not
receive bigger code changes anymore, hence shrink the MAINTAINERS

This is a minimal change meant for the short term: Never set the
ohci->use_dualbuffer flag to true.
There are two reasons to do so:
- Packet-per-buffer mode and dual-buffer mode do not behave the same
under certain circumstances, notably if several packets are covered
by a single fw_cdev_iso_packet descriptor.
http://marc.info/?l=linux1394-devel&m=124965653718313
Therefore the driver stack should not silently choose one or the
other mode but should leave the choice to the high-level driver
(regardless if kernel driver or userspace driver). Or simply always
only offer packet-per-buffer mode, since a considerable number of
controllers, even current ones, does not offer dual-buffer support.
- Even under circumstances where packet-per-buffer mode and
dual-buffer mode behave exactly the same --- notably when used
through libraw1394, libdc1394, as well as the current two kernel
drivers which use isochronous reception (firewire-net and firedtv)
--- we are still faced with the problem that several OHCI 1.1
controllers have bugs in dual-buffer mode. Although it looks like
we have identified most of those buggy controllers by now, we
cannot be quite sure about that.
So, use packet-per-buffer by default from now on. This change should
be followed up by a more complete solution: Either extend the
in-kernel API and the userspace ABI by a choice between the two IR modes
or remove all dual-buffer related code from firewire-ohci.

Control of more than one AV/C device at once --- e.g. camcorders, tape
decks, audio devices, TV tuners --- failed or worked only unreliably,
depending on driver implementation. This affected kernelspace and
userspace drivers alike and was caused by firewire-core's inability to
accept multiple registrations of FCP listeners.
The fix allows multiple address handlers to be registered for the FCP
command and response registers. When a request for these registers is
received, all handlers are invoked, and the Firewire response is
generated by the core and not by any handler.
The cdev API does not change, i.e., userspace is still expected to send
a response for FCP requests; this response is silently ignored.

As CPUs are migrated over to more fully-featured clock frameworks of
their own and off of the legacy CPG code, they no longer have any real
need for defining the PCLK value. The PCLK define in itself is already
fairly misleading, as many boards get their input clocks from different
sources, making this value fairly arbitrary anyways.
Outside of the legacy CPG clock framework, the only place where this
value is used is for deriving CLOCK_TICK_RATE, which we set back to the
legacy PIT value that it was before the PCLK definitions were added in
the first place.

mac80211 does not propagate failed hardware reconfiguration
requests. For suspend and resume this is important due to all
the possible issues that can come out of the suspend <-> resume
cycle. Not propagating the error means cfg80211 will assume
the resume for the device went through fine and mac80211 will
continue on trying to poke at the hardware, enable timers,
queue work, and so on for a device which is completley
unfunctional.
The least we can do is to propagate device start issues and
warn when this occurs upon resume. A side effect of this patch
is we also now propagate the start errors upon harware
reconfigurations (non-suspend), but this should also be desirable
anyway, there is not point in continuing to reconfigure a
device if mac80211 was unable to start the device.

When mac80211 suspends it calls a driver's suspend callback
as a last step and after that the driver assumes no calls will
be made to it until we resume and its start callback is kicked.
If such calls are made, however, suspend can end up throwing
hardware in an unexpected state and making the device unusable
upon resume.
Fix this by preventing mac80211 to schedule dynamic_ps_disable_work
by checking for when mac80211 starts to suspend and starts
quiescing. Frames should be allowed to go through though as
that is part of the quiescing steps and we do not flush the
mac80211 workqueue since it was already done towards the
beginning of suspend cycle.
The other mac80211 issue will be hanled in the next patch.

It is not clear to me how the first "direct probe" here
happens, but this seems to be a race condition, if the
user requests to deauth after requesting assoc, but before
the assoc response is received. In that case, it may
happen that mac80211 tries to report the assoc success to
cfg80211, but gets blocked on the wdev lock that is held
because the user is requesting the deauth.
The result is that we run into a warning. This is mostly
harmless, but maybe cause an unexpected event to be sent
to userspace; we'd send an assoc success event although
userspace was no longer expecting that.
To fix this, remove the warning and check whether the
race happened and in that case abort processing.

The calibration period is now invoked by triggering a software
interrupt from within the ISR by ath5k_hw_calibration_poll()
instead of via a timer.
However, the calibration interval isn't initialized before
interrupts are enabled, so we can have a situation where an
interrupt occurs before the interval is assigned, so the
interval is actually negative. As a result, the ISR will
arm a software interrupt to schedule the tasklet, and then
rearm it when the SWI is processed, and so on, leading to a
softlockup at modprobe time.
Move the initialization order around so the calibration interval
is set before interrupts are active. Another possible fix
is to schedule the tasklet directly from the poll routine,
but I think there are additional plans for the SWI.
