c4432c41b0 [SERIAL] ip22zilog: Fix oops on runlevel change with serial console
Incorrect uart_write_wakeup() calls cause reference to a NULL tty
pointer.  This has been fixed in the sunsab and sunzilog serial drivers
in October 2005.  Update the ip22zilog, which is based on sunzilog,
accordingly.

e12f0a3dec [SCSI] sr: partial revert of 24669f75a3
The patch

[SCSI] SCSI core kmalloc2kzalloc

Has an incorrect piece in sr_ioctl.c; it changes buffer from kmalloc
to kzalloc, but then removes the clearing of the stack variable struct
packet_command.  This, in turn leaves rubbish in the sense pointer
which the sr_do_ioctl() command then happily writes to ... oops.

Thanks to Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> for spotting this.

Ok, so here is my first take at satisfying this request.
Be warned, that beyond compiling, and checking that the new module
doesn't immediately blow up, there hasn't yet been a lot of testing.

But this should allow you to comment on the changes, and move forward
with dropping scsi_request from the kernel code.

72f2afb8a6 [TG3]: Add DMA address workaround
Add DMA workaround for chips that do not support full 64-bit DMA
addresses.

5714, 5715, and 5780 chips only support DMA addresses less than 40
bits. On 64-bit systems with IOMMU, set the dma_mask to 40-bit so
that pci_map_xxx() calls will map the DMA address below 40 bits if
necessary. On 64-bit systems without IOMMU, set the dma_mask to
64-bit and check for DMA addresses exceeding the limit in
tg3_start_xmit().

5788 only supports 32-bit DMA so need to set the mask appropriately
also.

Thanks to Chris Elmquist at SGI for reporting and helping to debug
the problem on 5714.

Thanks to David Miller for explaining the HIGHMEM and DMA stuff.

7a171cdcb6 [SERIAL] Fix two bugs in parport_serial
Steinar H. Gunderson reported:

  - For some reason, it detects the 9845 as a 9735 -- it appears this is
    simply related to the ordering in parport_serial_pci_tbl[]. If we move
    the 9845 up above the 9735, it prints out 9710:9845, but no change in
    behaviour. (We didn't find out why this was the case; we left it alone
    since it didn't affect our problem.)
  - The card has no parallel port (at least no physical ones), yet it reports
    (via its subsystem ID of 0x0014) one parallel port and four serial ports.
    The probe for the parallel port fails, and the driver just aborts. Thus,
    it doesn't find the serial ports.

Fix the debugging code to use dev_dbg, but don't bother displaying the
PCI ID of the detected board (that's accessible via other means.)

Also, arrange for parport_register() to return 0 even if it finds no
ports.

e72fd96e8e [PATCH] natsemi: NAPI and a bugfix
As documented in National application note 1287 the RX state machine on
the natsemi chip can lock up under some conditions (mostly related to
heavy load).  When this happens a series of bogus packets are reported
by the chip including some oversized frames prior to the final lockup.

This patch implements the fix from the application note: when an
oversized packet is reported it resets the RX state machine, dropping
any currently pending packets.
