b8691fd225 Input: iforce - fix force feedback not working
Use an interrupt URB to send force-feedback data to the device
instead of a bulk URB. This was broken since 2.6.18.

83b496e928 [RTNETLINK]: Allow changing of subsets of netdevice flags in rtnl_setlink
rtnl_setlink doesn't allow to change subsets of the flags, just to override
the set entirely by a new one. This means that for simply setting a device
up or down userspace first needs to query the current flags, change it and
send the changed flags back, which is racy and needlessly complicated.

Mask the flags using ifi_change since this is what it is intended for.
For backwards compatibility treat ifi_change == 0 as ~0 (even though it
seems quite unlikely that anyone has been using this so far).

de81d2aaeb i2c: Legacy i2c drivers shouldn't issue uevents
Prevent legacy drivers from issuing uevents for device creation/removal,
so that userspace can't cause modprobing loops for them.  This became a
problem for some legacy PC drivers.  I can't easily see it becoming an
issue with I2C legacy drivers, but consistency-in-paranoia seems likely
to be a good thing here.  For usable i2c-level driver model uevents, just
switch to a new-style driver.

6ae384884d [IA64] Only unwind non-running tasks.
Unwinding a running task has proven problematic.

In one instance, the running task was attempting to unwind itself and
received an interrupt between when get_wchan allocated local variables on
the stack and when unw_init_from_blocked_task was called which resulted
in unw_init_frame_info to place this tasks task_struct pointer over the
switch stack's ar_bspstore entry.

incorrectly matched .text.init.refok, thus putting it before

Removing the call to netif_poll_enable in e1000_open should fix this issue,
the only other call to netif_poll_enable is in e1000_up() which is only

9f81036c54 IB/cm: Improve local id allocation
The IB CM uses an idr for local id allocations, with a running counter
as start_id.  This fails to generate distinct ids if

1. An id is constantly created and destroyed
2. A chunk of ids just beyond the current next_id value is occupied

This in turn leads to an increased chance of connection request being
mis-detected as a duplicate, sometimes for several retries, until
next_id gets past the block of allocated ids. This has been observed
in practice.

As a fix, remember the last id allocated and start immediately above it.
This also fixes a problem with the old code, where next_id might
overflow and become negative.
