d419b9f0fa mac80211: fix ibss joining
Recent commit "mac80211: fix logic error ibss merge bssid check" fixed
joining of ibss cell when static bssid is provided. In this case
ifibss->bssid is set before the cell is joined and comparing that address
to a bss should thus always succeed. Unfortunately this change broke the
other case of joining a ibss cell without providing a static bssid where
the value of ifibss->bssid is not set before the cell is joined.

Since ifibss->bssid may be set before or after joining the cell we do not
learn anything by comparing it to a known bss. Remove this check.

d50bae33d1 b43: Fix Bugzilla #14181 and the bug from the previous 'fix'
"b43: Fix PPC crash in rfkill polling on unload" fixed the bug reported
in Bugzilla No. 14181; however, it introduced a new bug. Whenever the
radio switch was turned off, it was necessary to unload and reload
the driver for it to recognize the switch again.

This patch fixes both the original bug in #14181 and the bug introduced by
the previous patch. It must be stated, however, that if there is a BCM4306/3
with an rfkill switch (not yet proven), then the driver will need an
unload/reload cycle to turn the device back on.

4f917ba3d5 powerpc/ppc64: Use preempt_schedule_irq instead of preempt_schedule
Based on an original patch by Valentine Barshak <vbarshak@ru.mvista.com>

Use preempt_schedule_irq to prevent infinite irq-entry and
eventual stack overflow problems with fast-paced IRQ sources.

This kind of problems has been observed on the PASemi Electra IDE
controller. We have to make sure we are soft-disabled before calling
preempt_schedule_irq and hard disable interrupts after that
to avoid unrecoverable exceptions.

This patch also moves the "clrrdi r9,r1,THREAD_SHIFT" out of
the #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E scope, since r9 is clobbered
and has to be restored in both cases.

fb64bb560e PPPoE: Fix flush/close races.
Be more careful about the state of pointers during tear-down.
The "pppoe_dev" field can only be looked at safely while holding socket locks.
This subsequently allows for the flush_lock to be killed.

We depend on the PPPOX_CONNECTED state to tell us that that those fields are
valid, so whoever clears that state (pppox_unbind_sock()) is responsible for
the dev_put() call.

We also have to ensure that we delete_item() on all sockets before they are
cleaned up.

The need for these changes has been exposed by scenarios wherein namespace
bindings of ethernet devices change while there are ongoing PPPoE sessions,
which resulted in oopses due to unusual socket connection termination paths,
exposing these issues.

5ccdcecb72 e1000e: allow for swflag to be held over consecutive PHY accesses
PCH-based parts (82577/82578) and some ICH8-based parts (82566) need to
hold the swflag (sw/fw/hw hardware semaphore) over consecutive PHY accesses
in order to perform sw-driven PHY configuration during initialization to
workaround known hardware issues (see follow-on patch).  This patch
provides new PHY read/write functions (and function pointers) that will
allow accessing the PHY registers assuming the swflag has already been
acquired.  The actual PHY register access code has moved into helper
functions that are called with a flag indicating whether or not the swflag
has already been acquired and acquires/releases it if not.

The functions called from within the updated PHY access functions had to be
updated to assume the swflag was already acquired, and other functions that
called those functions were also updated to acquire/release the swflag.

ca15df58b1 e1000e: separate mutex usage between NVM and PHY/CSR register for ICHx/PCH
Accesses to NVM and PHY/CSR registers on ICHx/PCH-based parts are protected
from concurrent accesses with a mutex that is acquired when the access is
initiated and released when the access has completed.  However, the two
types of accesses should not be protected by the same mutex because the
driver may have to access the NVM while already holding the mutex over
several consecutive PHY/CSR accesses which would result in livelock.

ffb4a73d89 sh: Fix hugetlbfs dependencies for SH-3 && MMU configurations.
The hugetlb dependencies presently depend on SUPERH && MMU while the
hugetlb page size definitions depend on CPU_SH4 or CPU_SH5. This
unfortunately allows SH-3 + MMU configurations to enable hugetlbfs
without a corresponding HPAGE_SHIFT definition, resulting in the build
blowing up.

As SH-3 doesn't support variable page sizes, we tighten up the
dependenies a bit to prevent hugetlbfs from being enabled. These days
we also have a shiny new SYS_SUPPORTS_HUGETLBFS, so switch to using
that rather than adding to the list of corner cases in fs/Kconfig.

60339fad5c sh: Check for return_to_handler when unwinding the stack
When CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER is enabled the function graph tracer
may patch return addresses on the stack with the address of
return_to_handler(). This really confuses the DWARF unwinder because it
will try find the caller of return_to_handler(), not the caller of the
real return address.

So teach the DWARF unwinder how to find the real return address whenever
it encounters return_to_handler().

This patch does not cope very well when multiple return addresses on the
stack have been patched. To make it work properly it would require state
to track how many return_to_handler()'s have been seen so that we'd know
where to look in current->curr_ret_stack[]. So for now, instead of
trying to handle this, just moan if more than one return address on the
stack has been patched.

05af2142d0 r8169: fix Ethernet Hangup for RTL8110SC rev d
The 8110SC rev d chip on our board shows a regression which the 8110SB chip
did not have. When inbound traffic is overflowing the receive descriptor queue,
"holes" in the ring buffer may occur which lead to a hangup until the buffer
is filled again. The packets are than completely processed, but the ring
remains porous and no packets are processed until the next overflow. Setting
the interface down and up can fix the problem temporary from userspace.

For some reason we don't know, this behaviour is not occuring if the RxVlan
bit for hardware VLAN untagging is set. There is another "Work around for
AMD plateform" in the current code which checks the VLAN status
word in receive descriptors, but does never come to effect when hardware
VLAN support is enabled. We assume that this is a bug in the chip.

The following patch fixes the problem. Without the patch we could reproduce
the hang within minutes (given other devices also generating lots of
interrupts), without we couldn't reproduce within a few days of long term
testing.

This version contains minor style adjustments and is sent with mutt which
will hopefully not destroy the formatting again.

6cafb12dc8 block: silently error unsupported empty barriers too
With 2.6.32-rc5 in a KVM guest using dm and virtio_blk, we see the
following errors:

  end_request: I/O error, dev vda, sector 0
  end_request: I/O error, dev vda, sector 0

The errors go away if dm stops submitting empty barriers, by reverting:

  commit 52b1fd5a27
  Author: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>
    dm: send empty barriers to targets in dm_flush

We should silently error all barriers, even empty barriers, on devices
like virtio_blk which don't support them.

371dc4a6d8 hwmon: (it87) Fix VID reading on IT8718F/IT8720F
Comparing apples to bananas doesn't seem right. Consistently use the
chips enum for chip type comparisons, to avoid such bugs in the
future.

The bug has been there since support for the IT8718F was added, so
VID never worked for this chip nor for the similar IT8720F.

9d0914468f hwmon: (dme1737) No vid attributes for SCH311x
The SCH311x chips do not have VID inputs, so the cpu0_vid and vrm
attributes shouldn't be created for them.
