f5adfaa372 ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power transition
Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which
is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0
state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0
state. In  such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and
checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device
can't be transited to the correct power state.

   So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking
the device power in the course of device power transition.

a51e145f37 ACPI: Get the device power state in the course of scanning device
Get the device power state in the course of scanning device if the device
power flag is power_managable. i.e. The device has the _PSx/_PRx object.

At the same time before the drivers/acpi/power module is loaded, there is no
relation between acpi_power_resource and acpi device. So the first parameter
of acpi_power_get_state is changed to acpi_handle.

08237974af ACPI: replace AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code with AE_ERROR
The AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code is now unused in ACPICA.
For linux, it's only used at wmi.c and acer-wmi.c.
I checked both wmi.c and acer-wmi.c, the AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code
has no special meaning. The parent functions just call AE_SUCCESS() or
AE_FAILURE() to check the return status.
So it's safe to replace AE_BAD_ADDRESS with AE_ERROR.

8fd145917f ACPI: Ingore the RESET_REG_SUP bit when using ACPI reset mechanism
According to ACPI 3.0, FADT.flags.RESET_REG_SUP indicates
whether the ACPI reboot mechanism is supported.

However, some boxes have this bit clear, have a valid
ACPI_RESET_REG & RESET_VALUE, and ACPI reboot is the only
mechanism that works for them after S3.

This suggests that other operating systems may not be checking
the RESET_REG_SUP bit, and are using other means to decide
whether to use the ACPI reboot mechanism or not.

Here we stop checking RESET_REG_SUP.
Instead, When acpi reboot is requested,
only the reset_register is checked. If the following
conditions are met, it indicates that the reset register is supported.
	a. reset_register is not zero
	b. the access width is eight
	c. the bit_offset is zero

20edd74fcf ACPI: Ignore AE_NOT_FOUND error of EC _REG method and continue to initialize EC
On some broken BIOS the ACPI object in EC _REG method can't be found in
ACPI namespace, which causes that the status code of AE_NOT_FOUND is returned by
the EC _REG object. In such case the EC device can't be initialized correctly,
which causes that battery/AC adapter can't work normally. As the EC address
space handler is not removed and the memory pointed by its input argument is
already free, sometimes the kernel will also be panic when EC internal register
is still accessed. But the windows can work well on such broken BIOS.

Maybe it will be reasonable that OS ignores the AE_NOT_FOUND error
returned by the EC _REG object and continues to initialize EC device
on some broken BIOS.
For example: the ACPI object in EC _REG method can't be found and status error
code is AE_NOT_FOUND.

cpuidle accounts the idle time for the C-state it was trying to enter and
not to the actual state that the driver eventually entered. The driver may
select a different state than the one chosen by cpuidle due to
constraints like bus-mastering, etc.

Change the time acounting code to look at the dev->last_state after
returning from target_state->enter(). Driver can modify dev->last_state
internally, inside the enter routine to reflect the actual C-state
entered.

efc968d450 Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPEND
This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the
combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination.

It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and
POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example.  So
we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones.

But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought,
and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for
IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse
isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file).

So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now.  I doubt anybody cares, and this
way we have one less gray area to worry about.

The problem arose from changing how kmalloc/kfree handled alignment

0606e1abfc acer-wmi: Add rfkill support for wireless and bluetooth
This patch implements rfkill support for the wireless and bluetooth devices
commonly found on Acer laptops.

For now, we will always poll these devices once a second to guarantee we
can catch state changes. On newer Acer laptops, it may be possible to rely
on WMI events to do this instead, and experimental support for this will be
added in a later patch.

3G has been deliberately left off for now, as we still have no way to
detect it, (nor, AFAIK, has any Linux user tried the code) and on laptops
that don't support 3G, trying to poll for the status will leave the logs
full of ACPI tracebacks.

The old sysfs interface for wireless and bluetooth will be removed in a
later patch.

58ec3b4db9 net: Fix netdev_run_todo dead-lock
Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances
of the error

unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d

It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if
a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free
a reference to the device waited on by the first instance.

The problem is really quite silly.  We were trying to create
parallelism where none was required.  As netdev_run_todo always
follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added
with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait
for the very ones that you've added and be done with it.

There is no need for a second mutex or spinlock.

This is exactly what the following patch does.

From: Ali Saidi <saidi@engin.umich.edu>

When TCP receive copy offload is enabled it's possible that
tcp_rcv_established() will cause two acks to be sent for a single
packet. In the case that a tcp_dma_early_copy() is successful,
copied_early is set to true which causes tcp_cleanup_rbuf() to be
called early which can send an ack. Further along in
tcp_rcv_established(), __tcp_ack_snd_check() is called and will
schedule a delayed ACK. If no packets are processed before the delayed
ack timer expires the packet will be acked twice.

b6c40d68ff net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP
Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN
device down that is in promiscous mode:

When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real
device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the
promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous
count on the real device is decremented a second time by the
vlan_change_rx_flags() callback.

The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is
invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror
the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function
is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is
responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags()
is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP.

Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the
intended behaviour.

I think the problem comes from "markers: fix duplicate modpost entry"
(commit d35cb360c2)

Especially :

  -   add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
  +   if (!mod->skip)
  +     add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
    }
    return;
   fail:

Here is a fix that should take care if this problem.

Thanks for the bug report!

e683b42300 atmel-mci: Initialize BLKR before sending data transfer command
The atmel-mci driver sometimes fails data transfers like this:

   mmcblk0: error -5 transferring data
   end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 2749769
   end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 2749777

It turns out that this might be caused by the BLKR register (which
contains the block size and the number of blocks being transfered) being
initialized too late. This patch moves the initialization of BLKR so
that it contains the correct value before the block transfer command is
sent.

This error is difficult to reproduce, but if you insert a long delay
(mdelay(10) or thereabouts) between the calls to atmci_start_command()
and atmci_submit_data(), all transfers seem to fail without this patch,
while I haven't seen any failures with this patch.

While debugging another bug it was found that NetRom socks
are sometimes seen unorphaned in sk_free(). This patch moves
sock_orphan() in nr_release() to the beginning (like in ax25,

33d1d2c52c ax25: Quick fix for making sure unaccepted sockets get destroyed.
Since we reverted 30902dc3cb ("ax25: Fix
std timer socket destroy handling.") we have to put some kind of fix
in to cure the issue whereby unaccepted connections do not get destroyed.

The approach used here is from Tihomir Heidelberg - 9a4gl
