Microsoft's wireless desktop receiver (Model 1028) has a bug in the report
descriptor -- namely, in four seperate places it uses USAGE_MIN and _MAX when
it quite obviously doesn't intend to.
In other words, it reports that it has pretty much _everything_ in 'consumer'
and 'generic desktop'. And then the X evdev driver believes I have a mouse
with 36 absolute axes and a huge pile of keys and buttons, when I in fact,
should have zero. 255/256 in three of the cases, and 0-1024 in another.
This patch fixes the report descriptor of this device before it enters the HID
parser.

Many vendors highspeed devices give erroneously fullspeed interval value in
endpoint descriptor for interrupt endpoints. This quirk fixes up that by
recalculating the right value for highspeed device.
At the time of hid configuration this quirk calculates which highspeed interval
value gives same interval delay as, or next smaller then, what it would be if
the original value would be interpreted as fullspeed value. In subsequent urbs
that new value is used instead.
Forming the 'hid->name' in usb_hid_config() was moved up to accommodate more
descriptive printk reporting the fixup.
In this patch the quirk is set for one such device: Afatech DVB-T 2 infrared
HID-keyboard. It reports value 16 which means 4,069s in highspeed while
obviously 16ms was intended. In this case quirk calculates new value to be 8
which gives when interpreted as highspeed value 16ms as wanted. The behavior of
the device was verified to be what expected both before and after the patch.

The PCI MSI interface is stubbed out properly so that all the
functions just return failure if PCI_MSI=n, so there's no reason to

Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
Before IBA7220 support was added, the ipath driver didn't support any
hardware unless PCI_MSI and/or HT_IRQ was enabled. However, the
IBA7220 can generate INTx interrupts, so it makes sense to allow the
driver to be build even if PCI_MSI=n and HT_IRQ=n.
Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
The new IBA7220 code added a call to ipath_init_iba7220_funcs() that
is compiled unconditionally, but only built the IBA7220 code if
PCI_MSI is enabled. Fix this by building the IBA7220 file
unconditonally.
This fixes build breakage when PCI_MSI=n, HT_IRQ=y and
INFINIBAND_IPATH=y reported by Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>:

blk_rq_map_user adjusts bi_size of the last bio. It breaks the rule
that req->data_len (the true data length) is equal to sum(bio). It
broke the scsi command completion code.
commit e97a294ef6 was introduced to fix
the above issue. However, the partial completion code doesn't work
with it. The commit is also a layer violation (scsi mid-layer should
not know about the block layer's padding).
This patch moves the padding adjustment to blk_rq_map_sg (suggested by
James). The padding works like the drain buffer. This patch breaks the
rule that req->data_len is equal to sum(sg), however, the drain buffer
already broke it. So this patch just restores the rule that
req->data_len is equal to sub(bio) without breaking anything new.
Now when a low level driver needs padding, blk_rq_map_user and
blk_rq_map_user_iov guarantee there's enough room for padding.
blk_rq_map_sg can safely extend the last entry of a scatter list.
blk_rq_map_sg must extend the last entry of a scatter list only for a
request that got through bio_copy_user_iov. This patches introduces
new REQ_COPY_USER flag.

This patch allows to use loop device with partitionned disk image.
Original behavior of loop is not modified.
A new parameter is introduced to define how many partition we want to be
able to manage per loop device. This parameter is "max_part".
For instance, to manage 63 partitions / loop device, we will do:
# modprobe loop max_part=63
# ls -l /dev/loop?*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 0 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 64 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 128 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 192 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop3
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 256 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop4
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 320 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop5
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 384 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop6
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 448 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop7
And to attach a raw partitionned disk image, the original losetup is used:
# losetup -f etch.img
# ls -l /dev/loop?*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 0 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 1 2008-03-05 14:57 /dev/loop0p1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 2 2008-03-05 14:57 /dev/loop0p2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 5 2008-03-05 14:57 /dev/loop0p5
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 64 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 128 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 7, 192 2008-03-05 14:55 /dev/loop3

Of course, the same behavior can be done using kpartx on a loop device,
but modifying loop avoids to stack several layers of block device (loop +
device mapper), this is a very light modification (40% of modifications
are to manage the new parameter).

If cdrom commands are issued to a scsi drive in most cases the buffer will be
filled via dma. This leads to bad stack corruption on non coherent platforms,
because the buffers are neither cache line aligned nor is the size a multiple
of the cache line size. Using kmalloced buffers avoids this.
