Move PSTxDesc->m_td1TD1 to inside spin locks.
if m_td1TD1.byTCR has TCR_EDP and TCR_STP are set, the interrupt handler will
try and complete the buffer before it is completed. Usually on the tail
of a burst of tx packets.This results in a partially completed packet being transmitted or worse
sitll dead lock when skb is freed by the interrupt handler.Set head_td->m_td1TD1.byTCR to 0 in first lock of vnt_tx_packet to stop
interrupt handler completing the buffer. Move Set TSR1 & ReqCount in

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,
operating performance points library, ACPI device enumeration
messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
management in user space.Specifics:
- Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
driver (Fabio Estevam).- Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into
account (Aaron Lu).- Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have
used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages
printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).- Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit
Bhargava).- Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library
and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh
Kumar).- Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the
tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it
possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf
Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this
one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the
current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get
rid of it.- Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related
to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).- Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable
GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it
report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).- Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to
make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in
that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).- Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry
for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).- Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn
names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are
associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able

ancient and hopelessly obsolete. These drivers also need to be converted
to newer media frameworks but due to the lack of hardware that's going

available today.So these drivers are a prime candidate for removal. If someone is

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here's the big staging tree pull request for 3.19-rc1.We continued to delete more lines than were added, always a good
thing, but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines
removed overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver.Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place,
well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid
details.The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder
code out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel. This is code
that has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the
tens of millions of devices with no issues. Yes, the code is horrid,
and the userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going
to change due to legacy issues that we have no control over. Because
so many devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable,
might as well promote it out of staging.This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone
participating agreed that this was the best way forward.There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new
that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of
that work for another year at the earliest. If that ever happens, and
Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version.As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been
doing it for the past few years with no problems. I'll send a
MAINTAINERS entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk
to the Google developers about if they are willing to help with it or
not, last I checked they were, which was good.All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no

The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in
kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the
eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware
shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask. This is
redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to
the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages. The code duplication will
only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them
to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well.Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all
reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication.Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which
considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like
zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does. Accumulate the number over all
visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value.Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions. To
avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once
for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot
zone.For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic
and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and
zone reclaim. It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing
memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much
duplication of both code and runtime work.This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each
zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in
meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes.Zone reclaim behavior also changes. It used to shrink slabs until the
same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs. Now it
merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes
the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer
feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.[vdavydov@parallels.com: assure class zone is populated]

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
- Two new dvb frontend drivers: mn88472 and mn88473
- A new driver for some PCIe DVBSky cards
- A new remote controller driver: meson-ir
- One LIRC staging driver got rewritten and promoted to mainstream:
igorplugusb
- A new tuner driver (m88rs6000t)
- The old omap2 media driver got removed from staging. This driver
uses an old DMA API and it is likely broken on recent kernels.
Nobody cared enough to fix it
- Media bus format moved to a separate header, as DRM will also use the
definitions there
- mem2mem_testdev were renamed to vim2m, in order to use the same
naming convention taken by the other virtual test driver (vivid)
- Added a new driver for coda SoC (coda-jpeg)
- The cx88 driver got converted to use videobuf2 core
- Make DMABUF export buffer to work with DMA Scatter/Gather and Vmalloc
cores
- Lots of other fixes, improvements and cleanups on the drivers.* tag 'media/v3.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (384 commits)

Pull VFS changes from Al Viro:
"First pile out of several (there _definitely_ will be more). Stuff in
this one:- unification of d_splice_alias()/d_materialize_unique()
- iov_iter rewrite
- killing a bunch of ->f_path.dentry users (and f_dentry macro).
Getting that completed will make life much simpler for
unionmount/overlayfs, since then we'll be able to limit the places
sensitive to file _dentry_ to reasonably few. Which allows to have
file_inode(file) pointing to inode in a covered layer, with dentry
pointing to (negative) dentry in union one.Still not complete, but much closer now.
- crapectomy in lustre (dead code removal, mostly)
- "let's make seq_printf return nothing" preparations
- assorted cleanups and fixes
There _definitely_ will be more piles"

Pull ARM SoC DT updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"The DT branch adds a lot of new stuff for additional SoC and board
support. The branch is the largest one and contains 513 out of the
total 972 non-merge arm-soc changesets for 3.19.Most of the changes are about enabling additional on-chip devices for
existing machines, but there are also an unusual number of new SoC
types being added this time:- AMLogic Meson8
- ARM Realview in DT mode
- Allwinner A80
- Broadcom BCM47081
- Broadcom Cygnus
- Freescale LS1021A
- Freescale Vybrid 500 series
- Mediatek MT6592, MT8127, MT8135
- STMicroelectronics STiH410
- Samsung Exynos4415The level of support for the above differs widely, some are just stubs
with nothing more than CPU, memory and a UART, but others are fairly
complete. As usual, these get extended over time.There are also many new boards getting added, this is the list of
model strings that are showing up in new dts files:- ARM RealView PB1176

The release_firmware() function was called by the mn88473_init() function even
if a previous function call "request_firmware" failed.
This implementation detail could be improved by the introduction of another
jump label.Signed-off-by: Markus Elfring

The release_firmware() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
