98934def70 ACPI: video_device_list corruption
The ->cap fields of struct acpi_video_device and struct acpi_video_bus
are 1B each, not 4B. The oversized memset()'s corrupted the subsequent
list_head fields. This resulted in silent corruption without
CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST and BUG's with it. This patch uses sizeof() to pass
the proper bounds to the memset() calls and thereby correct the bugs.

58d784a5c7 [SERIAL] sparc: Infrastructure to fix section mismatch bugs.
This patch against 2.6.23 sparc-2.6.git contains a number of minor
cleanups of the sparc serial drivers.  Initially I fixed this build
warning:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x107a2c): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:add_preferred_console (between 'sunserial_console_match' and 'sunserial_console_termios')

which is done by declaring sunserial_console_match() as __init.  This
resulted in build warnings on sunserial_current_minor.  To resolve
these the variable was changed so it is no longer global, and to hide
operations on it inside 2 new functions. These functions handle the
UART minor handling code that is common to all sparc serial drivers.

These changes allowed to clean up the uart counters in all the sparc
serial drivers, and the administration of minor device numbers.

Lastly, sunserial_console_termios() does not need to be exported since
it is only called from non-modular code.

Sadly, the following build warning still exists:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(__ksymtab+0x2910): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:sunserial_console_match (between '__ksymtab_sunserial_console_match' and '__ksymtab_sunserial_unregister_minors')

This could be resolved by not exporting sunserial_console_match(), but
this is not possible at the moment because it is being called from
modular code. On the other hand, this is a bogus warning since it
comes from a ksymtab section.

843b1378c2 V4L/DVB (6690): saa7134: fix ignored interrupts
The saa7134 video driver starts dropping frames when used together with the
saa7134-alsa driver. Frames are dropped because when an audio event is waiting
the driver simply ignores the interrupt and passes it on to the saa7134-alsa
interrupt handler. The alsa interrupt handler in turn acknowledges all types
of events thus clearing the pending video events as well. Fix by only masking
out the audio event in the video interrupt handler and by only acknowledging
the audio event in the alsa driver.

3f03e38789 [VLAN]: Fix potential race in vlan_cleanup_module vs vlan_ioctl_handler.
The vlan module cleanup function starts with

	vlan_netlink_fini();
	vlan_ioctl_set(NULL);

The first call removes all the vlan devices and
the second one closes the vlan ioctl.

AFAIS there's a tiny race window between these two
calls - after rtnl unregistered all the vlans, but
the ioctl handler isn't set to NULL yet, user can
manage to call this ioctl and create one vlan device,
and that this function will later BUG_ON seeing
non-emply hashes.

I think, that we must first close the vlan ioctl
and only after this remove all the vlans with the
vlan_netlink_fini() call.

c09c262783 [BNX2]: Fix RX packet rot.
Packets can be left in the RX ring if the NAPI budget is reached.
This is caused by storing the latest rx index at the beginning of
bnx2_rx_int().  We may not process all the work up to this index
if the budget is reached and so some packets in the RX ring may rot
when we later check for more work using this stored rx index.

The fix is to not store this latest hw index and only store the
processed rx index.  We use a new function bnx2_get_hw_rx_cons()
to fetch the latest hw rx index.

after a subsequent reference to skb, because netif_rx may call kfree_skb on

1df2e44560 [IPV6] XFRM: Fix auditing rt6i_flags; use RTF_xxx flags instead of RTCF_xxx.
RTCF_xxx flags, defined in include/linux/in_route.h) are available for
IPv4 route (rtable) entries only.  Use RTF_xxx flags instead, defined
in include/linux/ipv6_route.h, for IPv6 route entries (rt6_info).

Some versions of Xen 3.x set their magic number to "xen-3.[12]", so
relax the test to match them.

3790ee4bd8 proc: remove/Fix proc generic d_revalidate
Ultimately to implement /proc perfectly we need an implementation of
d_revalidate because files and directories can be removed behind the back
of the VFS, and d_revalidate is the only way we can let the VFS know that
this has happened.

Unfortunately the linux VFS can not cope with anything in the path to a
mount point going away.  So a proper d_revalidate method that calls d_drop
also needs to call have_submounts which is moderately expensive, so you
really don't want a d_revalidate method that unconditionally calls it, but
instead only calls it when the backing object has really gone away.

proc generic entries only disappear on module_unload (when not counting the
fledgling network namespace) so it is quite rare that we actually encounter
that case and has not actually caused us real world trouble yet.

So until we get a proper test for keeping dentries in the dcache fix the
current d_revalidate method by completely removing it.  This returns us to
the current status quo.

So with CONFIG_NETNS=n things should look as they have always looked.

For CONFIG_NETNS=y things work most of the time but there are a few rare
corner cases that don't behave properly.  As the network namespace is
barely present in 2.6.24 this should not be a problem.

d84248bf46 atmel_spi: reload RCR before TCR
We have a wifi module connected to the spi bus and got sometimes FIFO
overrun errors on the spi bus.

After some investigation i found that the driver loads the TCR (transmit
count) register before the RCR (receive count).  When the transfer list is
not empty the atmel_spi_next_message is called while tx and rx are enabled.
 As soon as the TCR is loaded, hardware starts transfer and causes a rx
fifo overrun because the RCR is not loaded yet.

Load the RCR before the TCR.  After this patch the fifo overrun disapears
at out setup.
