3197059af0 geos: Platform driver for Geos and Geos2 single-board computers.
Trivial platform driver for Traverse Technologies Geos and Geos2
single-board computers. Uses SMBIOS to identify platform.
Based on progressive revisions of the leds-net5501 driver that
was rewritten by Ed Wildgoose as a platform driver.

Supports GPIO-based LEDs (3) and 1 polled button which is
typically used for a soft reset.

774b06780b asus-laptop: control how BLED and WLED should be exposed
Let the user tells if BLED and WLED should be exposed as led or
rfkill (the old sysfs are still here, but this adds a standard
interface to control the device).

For example on my A6JC, with WAPF=1, I would do:

$ modprobe asus-laptop wled_type=led bluetooth_type=rfkill

There is still no known way to automatically guess what BLED
and WLED methods will control, it's why user information is needed.

A userspace database could do that automatically, and maybe some DMI
matching in the driver.

This enable the driver for everything that look like
a laptop and is from vendor "SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.".
Note that laptop supported by samsung-q10 seem to have a different

Also remove every log output until we know that we have a SABI interface
(except if the driver is forced to load, or debug is enabled).

Keeping a whitelist of laptop with a model granularity is something that can't
work without close vendor cooperation (and we don't have that).

747a562f34 to fix scancodes returned by sony-laptop driver
Fix scancodes returned by driver to match scancodes used to remap keys.

(Before the patch FN/E returned scancode 0x1B, but to remap scancode
0x14 had to be used).

The scancodes returned by the sony-laptop driver for function keys did not
match the scancodes used to remap keys.  Also, since the scancode was sent
to the input subsystem after the mapped keysym the /lib/udev/keymap
utility was confused about which scancode to report for which keysym.

This patch fixes the driver so the correct scancode is shown for each
key.  It also adds to the documentation a description of where to find
the scancodes.

6fe6ae56a7 sony-laptop: Enable keyboard backlight by default
When the keyboard backlight support was originally added, the commit said
to default it to on with a 10 second timeout.  That actually wasn't the
case, as the default value is commented out for the kbd_backlight parameter.
Because it is a static variable, it gets set to 0 by default without some
other form of initialization.

However, it seems the function to set the value wasn't actually called
immediately, so whatever state the keyboard was in initially would remain.
Then commit df410d5224 was introduced during the 2.6.39 timeframe to
immediately set whatever value was present (as well as attempt to
restore/reset the state on module removal or resume).  That seems to have
now forced the light off immediately when the module is loaded unless
the option kbd_backlight=1 is specified.

Let's enable it by default again (for the first time).  This should solve

93dc6107a7 Don't limit non-nested epoll paths
Commit 28d82dc1c4 ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the
number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications
to longer work (dovecot for one).

The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting
(since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can
allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits
it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.

This is captured in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=681578

a16a1647fa netfilter: ctnetlink: fix race between delete and timeout expiration
Kerin Millar reported hardlockups while running `conntrackd -c'
in a busy firewall. That system (with several processors) was
acting as backup in a primary-backup setup.

After several tries, I found a race condition between the deletion
operation of ctnetlink and timeout expiration. This patch fixes
this problem.
