When showing the stack backtrace, make sure that we never accept not only an unchanging frame pointer, but also a frame pointer that moves back down the stack frame. It must always grow up (toward older stack frames). I doubt this has triggered, but a subtly corrupt stack with extremely unlucky contents could cause us to loop forever on a bogus endless frame pointer chain. This review was triggered by much worse problems happening in some of the other stack unwinding code. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The scheduler on Andreas Friedrich's hyperthreading system stopped working properly: the scheduler would never move tasks to another CPU! The lask known working kernel was 2.6.8.

The fix is to align the stack pointer.

Benh points out that the msgs[0].flags entry never got initialized, and since it's an automatic stack allocation, it could have any random value, which is bad. Rewrite the initializer to explicitly initialize all fields of the small i2c_msg structure array we generate. Just to keep it all obvious, let's handle msgs[1].buf in the same initializer while we're at it, instead of initializing that one separately later. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

similar to the version in adbhid_input_register(): The '<>' key and the '^°' key on a german keyboard is swapped. Provide correct keys to userland, external USB keyboards will not work correctly when the 'badmap'/'goodmap' workarounds from xkeyboard-config are used. It is expected that distributions drop the badmap/goodmap part from keycodes/macintosh in the xkeyboard-config package. This is probably 2.6.18.x material, if major distros settle on 2.6.18.

When a suspended OHCI controller sees a port's status change, it sets both the Root-Hub-Status-Change and the Resume-Detect bits in the Interrupt Status register. Processing both these bits, the driver tries to resume the root hub twice! This patch (as807) fixes the bug by ignoring RD if RHSC is set. It also prints a slightly more informative log message when a remote-wakeup event occurs. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

But while it breaks those of a larger bcd, it is still needed for those of a smaller bcd - so this changes the lower bcd limit to 0x0000.
