29453932d8 input: serio: add support for Amstrad Delta serial keyboardport
The patch introduces a serio driver that supports a keyboard serial port found
on the Amstrad Delta videophone board.

After initializing the hardware, the driver reads its input data from a buffer
filled in by the board FIQ (Fast Interrupt Request) handler.

Standard AT keyboard driver (atkbd) will be used on top of the serio layer for
handling the E3 keyboard (called mailboard) connected to the port. Since the
device generated scancodes differ from what the atkbd expects, a custom key
code to scan code table must be loaded from userspace for the keyboard to be
useable.

07bedca29b ACPI: DMI init_set_sci_en_on_resume for multiple Lenovo ThinkPads
Multiple Lenovo ThinkPad models with Intel Core i5/i7 CPUs can
successfully suspend/resume once, and then hang on the second s/r
cycle.

We got confirmation that this was due to a BIOS defect. The BIOS
did not properly set SCI_EN coming out of S3. The BIOS guys
hinted that The Other Leading OS ignores the fact that hardware
owns the bit and sets it manually.

In any case, an existing DMI table exists for machines where this
defect is a known problem. Lenovo promise to fix their BIOS, but
for folks who either won't or can't upgrade their BIOS, allow
Linux to workaround the issue.

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15407
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/532374

Confirmed by numerous testers in the launchpad bug that using
acpi_sleep=sci_force_enable fixes the issue. We add the machines
to acpisleep_dmi_table[] to automatically enable this workaround.

77a4229719 [SCSI] Retry commands with UNIT_ATTENTION sense codes to fix ext3/ext4 I/O error
There's nastyness in the way we currently handle barriers (and
discards): They're effectively filesystem commands, but they get
processed as BLOCK_PC commands.  Unfortunately BLOCK_PC commands are
taken by SCSI to be SG_IO commands and the issuer expects to see and
handle any returned errors, however trivial.  This leads to a huge
problem, because the block layer doesn't expect this to happen and any
trivially retryable error on a barrier causes an immediate I/O error
to the filesystem.

The only real way to hack around this is to take the usual class of
offending errors (unit attentions) and make them all retryable in the
case of a REQ_HARDBARRIER.  A correct fix would involve a rework of
the entire block and SCSI submit system, and so is out of scope for a
quick fix.

c213e1407b [SCSI] Enable retries for SYNCRONIZE_CACHE commands to fix I/O error
Some arrays are giving I/O errors with ext3 filesystems when
SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE gets a UNIT_ATTENTION.  What is happening is that
these commands have no retries, so the UNIT_ATTENTION causes the
barrier to fail.  We should be enable retries here to clear any
transient error and allow the barrier to succeed.

ACPI removal.

b1d4b390ea i2c: Fix probing of FSC hardware monitoring chips
Some FSC hardware monitoring chips (Syleus at least) doesn't like
quick writes we typically use to probe for I2C chips. Use a regular
byte read instead for the address they live at (0x73). These are the
only known chips living at this address on PC systems.

For clarity, this fix should not be needed for kernels 2.6.30 and
later, as we started instantiating the hwmon devices explicitly based
on DMI data. Still, this fix is valuable in the following two cases:
* Support for recent FSC chips on older kernels. The DMI-based device
  instantiation is more difficult to backport than the device support
  itself.
* Case where the DMI-based device instantiation fails, whatever the
  reason. We fall back to probing in that case, so it should work.

This fixes kernel bug #15634:

1827d2e943 net: ep93xx_eth stops receiving packets
Receiving small packet(s) in a fast pace leads to not receiving any

After ethernet packet(s) arrived the receive descriptor is incremented
by the number of frames processed. If another packet arrives while
processing, this is processed in another call of ep93xx_rx. This
second call leads that too many receive descriptors getting released.

This fix increments, even in these case, the right number of processed

e9162ab161 dm9601: fix phy/eeprom write routine
Use correct bit positions in DM_SHARED_CTRL register for writes.

Michael Planes recently encountered a 'KY-RS9600 USB-LAN converter', which
came with a driver CD containing a Linux driver. This driver turns out to
be a copy of dm9601.c with symbols renamed and my copyright stripped.
That aside, it did contain 1 functional change in dm_write_shared_word(),
and after checking the datasheet the original value was indeed wrong
(read versus write bits).

On Michaels HW, this change bumps receive speed from ~30KB/s to ~900KB/s.
On other devices the difference is less spectacular, but still significant
(~30%).

9414e99672 oprofile: protect from not being in an IRQ context
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/27/285

Protect against dereferencing regs when it's NULL, and
force a magic number into pc to prevent too deep processing.
This approach permits the dropped samples to be tallied as
invalid Instruction Pointer events.

e.g. output from about 15mins at 10kHz sample rate:
Nr. samples received: 2565380
Nr. samples lost invalid pc: 4

5c3c7e64bb drbd: don't expose failed local READ to upper layers
fix regression introduced in 8.3.3:
 commit a9b17323f2875f5d9b132c2b476a750bf44b10c7
 Author: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com>
 Date:   Wed Aug 12 15:18:33 2009 +0200

     out-of-spinlock completion of master bio

 : (bio_rw(bio) == READA)
    ? read_completed_with_error
    : read_ahead_completed_with_error;

is obviously not what was intended.

No one noticed because of
 * page-cache at work,
 * local RAIDs

Impact:
Failed local READs are not retried remotely,
but errored to upper layers, causing filesystems
to remount read-only, or worse.
