i2c-core takes care of the possible corruption of 24RF08 chips for
quite some times, so device devices no longer need to do it. And they
really should not, as applying the prevention twice voids it.I thought that I had fixed all drivers long ago but apparently I had
missed that one.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

The i2c-amd756 driver pretends to support SMBus process call
transactions but actually does not. Fix it.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Remove the old driver_name/type scheme for i2c driver matching. Only the
standard aliasing model will be used from now on.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare
-
Update all the remaining new-style i2c drivers to use standard module
aliasing instead of the old driver_name/type driver matching scheme.Note that the tuner driver is a bit quirky at the moment, as it
overwrites i2c_client.name with arbitrary strings. We write "tuner"
back on remove, to make sure that driver cycling will work properly,
but there may still be troublesome corner cases.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

There is a strange chip at 0x2e on the second SMBus channel of the
DFI Lanparty NF4 Expert motherboard. Accessing the chip reboots the
system. As there's nothing interesting on this SMBus channel, the
easiest and safest thing to do is to disable it on that board.This is a better fix to bug #5889 than the it87 driver update that was
done originally:

Ben Dooks agreed to become my co-maintainer for the i2c subsystem. In

This patch fixes a build bug on m68k - gcc decides to emit a call to the
strlen library function, which we don't implement.More importantly - my previous patch "init: don't lose initcall return
values" (commit e662e1cfd434aa234b72fbc781f1d70211cb785b) had introduced
potential buffer overflow by wrong calculation of string accumulator
size.Use strlcat() instead, fixing both bugs.

to catch and fix the bug.Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov

Everybody wants to pass it a function pointer, and in fact, that is what
you _must_ pass it for it to make sense (since it knows that ia64 and
ppc64 use descriptors for function pointers and fetches the actual
address from there).So don't make the argument be a 'unsigned long' and force everybody to
add a cast.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Enabling the BKL to be lockdep tracked uncovered the following
upstream kernel bug in the tty code, which caused a BKL
reference leak:================================================
[ BUG: lock held when returning to user space! ]

dmesg/3121 is leaving the kernel with locks still held!
1 lock held by dmesg/3121:
#0: (kernel_mutex){--..}, at: [] opost+0x24/0x194this might explain some of the atomicity warnings and crashes

The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall
personality(PER_LINUX32).On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance
because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried
to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default
execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very
expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function
lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c).To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in
initialization time for IA-64 architecture.Signed-off-by: Xiaolan Huang

Both smp_call_function() and __smp_call_function_map() access
cpu_online_map. Both functions run with preemption disabled which
protects for cpus going offline. However new cpus can be added and
therefore the cpu_online_map can change unexpectedly.
So use the call_lock to protect against changes to the cpu_online_map
in start_secondary() and all smp_call_* functions.Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens
