      The trace above is totally reproducible by doing a cross-directory
      rename on an ecryptfs directory.
      
      The issue seems to be that sys_renameat() does lock_rename() then calls
      into the filesystem; if the filesystem is ecryptfs, then
      ecryptfs_rename() again does lock_rename() on the lower filesystem, and
      lockdep can't tell that the two s_vfs_rename_mutexes are different.  It
      seems an annotation like the following is sufficient to fix this (it
      does get rid of the lockdep trace in my simple tests); however I would
      like to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the locking, hence the CC
      list...

      RAW_SETBIND and RAW_GETBIND 32bit versions are fscked in interesting ways. · 0083395f
      Al Viro authored
      1) fs/compat_ioctl.c has COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND) followed by
      HANDLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND, raw_ioctl).  The latter is ignored.
      
      2) on amd64 (and itanic) the damn thing is broken - we have int + u64 + u64
      and layouts on i386 and amd64 are _not_ the same.  raw_ioctl() would
      work there, but it's never called due to (1).  As it is, i386 /sbin/raw
      definitely doesn't work on amd64 boxen.
      
      3) switching to raw_ioctl() as is would *not* work on e.g. sparc64 and ppc64,
      which would be rather sad, seeing that normal userland there is 32bit.
      The thing is, slapping __packed on the struct in question does not DTRT -
      it eliminates *all* padding.  The real solution is to use compat_u64.
      
      4) of course, all that stuff has no business being outside of raw.c in the
      first place - there should be ->compat_ioctl() for /dev/rawctl instead of
      messing with compat_ioctl.c.

      vfs_rename_dir() doesn't properly account for filesystems with · ca05021f
      Miklos Szeredi authored
      FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE.  If new_dentry has a target inode attached, it
      unhashes the new_dentry prior to the rename() iop and rehashes it after,
      but doesn't account for the possibility that rename() may have swapped
      {old,new}_dentry.  For FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE filesystems, it rehashes
      new_dentry (now the old renamed-from name, which d_move() expected to go
      away), such that a subsequent lookup will find it.
      
      This was caught by the recently posted POSIX fstest suite, rename/10.t
      test 62 (and others) on ceph.
      
      The bug was introduced by: commit 349457cc
      "[PATCH] Allow file systems to manually d_move() inside of ->rename()"
      
      Fix by not rehashing the new dentry.  Rehashing used to be needed by
      d_move() but isn't anymore.

      No need to export those device attributes. · 7b53d30e
      Alex Chiang authored
      In fact, without this patch, we can trip over a build error if hpsa
      is a built-in and another driver also declares and exports attributes
      with the same name.
      
      You'll see errors like:
      
      	drivers/scsi/built-in.o: multiple definition of `dev_attr_lunid'

      __initdata. The only caller of dmar_ir_support() is
      intr_remapping_supported() also annotated with __init.

      reference from the function dmar_ir_support() to the variable
      .init.data:dmar_tbl
      The function dmar_ir_support() references
      the variable __initdata dmar_tbl.
      This is often because dmar_ir_support lacks a __initdata
      annotation or the annotation of dmar_tbl is wrong.

      When controlling an industrial radio modem it can be necessary to · 4f36dc27
      Dick Hollenbeck authored
      manipulate the handshake lines in order to control the radio modem's
      transmitter, from userspace.
      
      The transmitter should not be turned off before all characters have been
      transmitted.  serial8250_tx_empty() was reporting that all characters were
      transmitted before they actually were.
      
      ===
      
      Discovered in parallel with more testing and analysis by Kees Schoenmakers
      as follows:
      
      I ran into an NetMos 9835 serial pci board which behaves a little
      different than the standard.  This type of expansion board is very common.
      
      "Standard" 8250 compatible devices clear the 'UART_LST_TEMT" bit together
      with the "UART_LSR_THRE" bit when writing data to the device.
      
      The NetMos device does it slightly different
      
      I believe that the TEMT bit is coupled to the shift register.  The problem
      is that after writing data to the device and very quickly after that one
      does call serial8250_tx_empty, it returns the wrong information.
      
      My patch makes the test more robust (and solves the problem) and it does
      not affect the already correct devices.
      
      
      Alan:
      
        We may yet need to quirk this but now we know which chips we have a
        way to do that should we find this breaks some other 8250 clone with
        dodgy THRE.

      Fit blackfin uart over sport driver into common uart inftrastructure. It · 195fd228
      sonic zhang authored
      is based on the early platform interfaces to get the platform data early
      when the console is initilized.
      
      1. Enable sport uart driver to change uart baud, data bit, stop bit at
         runtime.  Bind the index of uart device nodes to physical index of
         sports.
      
      2. Move all platform data into arch specific board files.  Register
         and probe platform device data in both early and normal stages.
      
      3. Console is registered in sport uart driver as well.
      
      4. Remove 500 us block waiting in sport tx stop code by putting a
         dummy data into tx fifo to make sure the sport tx stops when all bytes
         are shifted out except for the dummy data.
      
      5. clean up a bit and fix up coding style.

      Work around one problem with my Acer Bluetooth Optical Rechargeable Mouse · f4ab3880
      Lamarque Vieira Souza authored
      where the cursor gets stuck at screen's upper-left corner.
      
      Even my notebook's touchpad is not able to move cursor when the bluetooth
      mouse is connected to my Acer Ferrari 4005 notebook.
      
      Using input session instead of hid session solves this problem although
      the cursor still moves a little sluggishly with the bluetooth mouse,
      cursor moves correctly using the touchpad.
      
      My bluetooth mouse used to work well (no sluggish) until kernel 2.6.21,
      since then the problems are getting worse with each kernel release (it got
      sluggish in 2.6.22 and this this upper-left corner problem appeared in
      2.6.28 or 2.6.27).
      
      The patch adds a general quirk handling framework to the HIDP core and
      then uses this framework to implement a quirk for this device.
