b1443e2f65 cassini: Only use chip checksum for ipv4 packets.
According to David Monro, at least with Natsemi Saturn chips the
cassini driver has some trouble with ipv6 checksums.

Until we have more information about what's going on here, only
use the chip checksums for ipv4.

This workaround was suggested and tested by David.

Update version and release date.

89fd2e282a ath5k: Fix loop variable initializations
In ath5k_tasklet_rx, both status structures 'rxs' and 'rs' are
initialized at the top of the tasklet, but not within the loop.
If the loop is executed multiple times in the tasklet then the
variables may see changes from previous packets.

For TKIP, this results in 'Invalid Michael MIC' errors if two packets
are processed in the tasklet: rxs.flag gets set to RX_DECRYPTED by
mac80211 when it decrypts the first encrypted packet.  The subsequent
packet will have RX_DECRYPTED set upon entry to mac80211, so mac80211
will not try to decrypt it.

We currently initialize all but two fields in the structures, so fix
the other two.

129bd474a8 USB: ehci-orion: the Orion EHCI root hub does have a Transaction Translator
Commit 7329e211b9 ("USB: root hubs don't
lie about their number of TTs") requires the various platform EHCI
glue modules to set ->has_tt if the root hub has a Transaction
Translator.

The Orion EHCI root hub does have a Transaction Translator, so set
->has_tt in ehci_orion_setup().  This fixes oopsing on plugging in a
low speed device.

1) Remove an explicit memset(.., 0, ...) to a variable allocated with
kzalloc (i.e. 'dest').

2) Allocate 'src' with kmalloc instead of kzalloc as all elements of the
'src' buffer are initialized in a 'for(...)' loop just after.

3) remove useless 'sizeof(u8)', which always returns 1, when computing the
size of the memory to be allocated.

6c06aec248 IB: fix race in device_create
There is a race from when a device is created with device_create() and
then the drvdata is set with a call to dev_set_drvdata() in which a
sysfs file could be open, yet the drvdata will be NULL, causing all
sorts of bad things to happen.

This patch fixes the problem by using the new function,
device_create_drvdata().

8882b39421 Driver core: add device_create_vargs and device_create_drvdata
We want to have the drvdata field set properly when creating the device
as sysfs callbacks can assume it is present and it can race the later
setting of this field.

So, create two new functions, deviec_create_vargs() and
device_create_drvdata() that take this new field.

device_create_drvdata() will go away in 2.6.27 as the drvdata field will
just be moved to the device_create() call as it should be.

81b2dbcad8 Fix a deadlock in the bttv driver
vidiocgmbuf() does this:
        mutex_lock(&fh->cap.vb_lock);
        retval = videobuf_mmap_setup(&fh->cap, gbuffers, gbufsize,
                                     V4L2_MEMORY_MMAP);

and videobuf_mmap_setup() then just does
        mutex_lock(&q->vb_lock);
        ret = __videobuf_mmap_setup(q, bcount, bsize, memory);
        mutex_unlock(&q->vb_lock);

which is an obvious double-take deadlock.

This patch fixes this by having vidiocgmbuf() just call the
__videobuf_mmap_setup function instead.
