The IO port range requested by parport_pc.c:sio_ite_8872_probe is too small.
The IO-ports of ttyS1 (0x2f8) will be missconfigured by the ITE-chip. The ITE
starts looking for the chip a 0x2a0. An IO-portrange of 32 will not overwrite
the ports of ttyS1. Therefore register 0x60 should be written with
0xe5000000, enabling the ITE and setting IO-portsize to 32 bytes.Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton

Add TTY input auditing, used to audit system administrator's actions. This is
required by various security standards such as DCID 6/3 and PCI to provide
non-repudiation of administrator's actions and to allow a review of past
actions if the administrator seems to overstep their duties or if the system
becomes misconfigured for unknown reasons. These requirements do not make it
necessary to audit TTY output as well.Compared to an user-space keylogger, this approach records TTY input using the
audit subsystem, correlated with other audit events, and it is completely
transparent to the user-space application (e.g. the console ioctls still
work).TTY input auditing works on a higher level than auditing all system calls
within the session, which would produce an overwhelming amount of mostly
useless audit events.Add an "audit_tty" attribute, inherited across fork (). Data read from TTYs
by process with the attribute is sent to the audit subsystem by the kernel.
The audit netlink interface is extended to allow modifying the audit_tty
attribute, and to allow sending explanatory audit events from user-space (for
example, a shell might send an event containing the final command, after the
interactive command-line editing and history expansion is performed, which
might be difficult to decipher from the TTY input alone).Because the "audit_tty" attribute is inherited across fork (), it would be set
e.g. for sshd restarted within an audited session. To prevent this, the
audit_tty attribute is cleared when a process with no open TTY file
descriptors (e.g. after daemon startup) opens a TTY.See https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2007-June/msg00000.html for a
more detailed rationale document for an older version of this patch.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix]

The intel-rng printed a nice well formatted message when the port was
disabled. Someone then came along and blindly trashed it by screwing up a
trim down to 80 columns.Put it back into the right format and keep the overlong lines as the result
is also MUCH easier to read in this specific case.Signed-off-by: Alan Cox

The RXBRK field in the AT91/AT32 USART status register has the
following definition according to e.g. the AT32AP7000 data sheet:RXBRK: Break Received/End of Break
0: No Break received or End of Break detected since the last RSTSTA.
1: Break Received or End of Break detected since the last RSTSTA.Thus, for each break, the USART sets the RXBRK bit twice. This patch
modifies the driver to report the break event to the serial core only
once by keeping track of whether a break condition is currently
active. The break_active flag is reset as soon as a character is
received, so even if we miss the start-of-break interrupt this should
do the right thing.Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen

This enables code with a dma path, that compiles away, to build without
requiring additional code factoring. It also prevents code that calls
dma_alloc_coherent and dma_free_coherent from linking whereas previously
the code would hit a BUG() at run time. Finally, it allows archs that set
!HAS_DMA to delete their asm/dma-mapping.h file.Cc: Cornelia Huck

Before calling init_hwif_default, ide_unregister gets lock ide_lock and
disables irq. init_hwif_default calls ide_default_io_base which calls
pci_get_device and later pci_get_subsys tries to apply for semaphore
pci_bus_sem and goes to sleep.Mostly, pci_get_device should be called when irq is turned on.
ide_default_io_base just needs find if list pci_devices is empty.
