This revised patch (as586b) makes usb-handoff permanently true and no
longer a kernel boot parameter. It also removes the piix3_usb quirk code;
that was nothing more than an early version of the USB handoff code
(written at a time when Intel's PIIX3 was about the only motherboard with
USB support). And it adds identifiers for the three PCI USB controller
classes to pci_ids.h.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

Add PEC support to the lm90 driver. Only the ADM1032 chip supports it,
and in a rather tricky way, which is why this patch comes with
documentation reinforcements. At least, this demonstrates that the new
PEC support logic in i2c-core can properly deal with chips with partial
PEC support.As enabling PEC causes a significant performance drop, it can be
disabled through a sysfs file (unsurprisingly named "pec").Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Drop legacy ISA address support from the it87 driver. All supported
chips are Super-I/O chips, so the device ISA address can be safely read
from Super-I/O space rather than blindly assumed.Two nearby inaccurate documentation statements have been fixed as well:
* The IT8705F doesn't have an SMBus interface.
* The SiS950 doesn't have a distinct prefix.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Do not enable the VIA VT82C686A/B integrated sensors by default, as
disabled sensors usually means that this feature is not used so the

In PM v1, all devices were called at SUSPEND_DISABLE level. Then
all devices were called at SUSPEND_SAVE_STATE level, and finally
SUSPEND_POWER_DOWN level. However, with PM v2, to maintain
compatibility for platform devices, I arranged for the PM v2
suspend/resume callbacks to call the old PM v1 suspend/resume
callbacks three times with each level in order so that existing
drivers continued to work.Since this is obsolete infrastructure which is no longer necessary,
we can remove it. Here's an (untested) patch to do exactly that.Signed-off-by: Russell King

In the current dell_rbu code ver 2.0 the packet update mechanism makes the
user app dump every individual packet in to the driver.This adds in efficiency as every packet update makes the
/sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading and data files to disappear and reappear
again. Thus the user app needs to wait for the files to reappear to dump
another packet. This slows down the packet update tremendously in case of
large number of packets. I am submitting a new patch for dell_rbu which will
change the way we do packet updates;In the new method the user app will create a new single file which has already
packetized the rbu image and all the packets are now staged in this file.This driver also creates a new entry in
/sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/packet_size ; the user needs to echo the packet
size here before downloading the packet file.The user should do the following:
create one single file which has all the packets stacked together.
echo the packet size in to /sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/packet_size.
echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading
cat the packetfile > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/data
echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loadingThe driver takes the file which came through /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/data
and takes chunks of paket_size data from it and place in contiguous memory.This makes packet update process very efficient and fast. As all the packet
update happens in one single operation. The user can still read back the
downloaded file from /sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/data.Signed-off-by: Abhay Salunke
