b13296d070 regulator: ab3100: Use regulator_map_voltage_iterate()
regulator_map_voltage_iterate() is for drivers implementing set_voltage_sel()
and list_voltage() to use it as their map_voltage() operation.

In this case, regulator_map_voltage_iterate() happen to be doing the same thing
as ab3100_get_best_voltage_index() function. So we can use it to replace
ab3100_get_best_voltage_index() function.

8b22285fd7 regulator: tps65217: Convert to set_voltage_sel and map_voltage
Convert tps65217_pmic_ops to use set_voltage_sel and map_voltage.
After this convertion, we can also use tps65217_pmic_set_voltage_sel()
for set_voltage_sel callback of tps65217_pmic_ldo1_ops.
Thus this patch also removes tps65217_pmic_ldo1_set_voltage_sel() function.

3a8334b948 regulator: Enable the ab8500 for Device Tree
Here we setup the ab8500 regulator driver for DT. We first do
this in the normal way, by providing a match structure during
initialisation, but then we provide information so that
whilst probing we can use existing data structures to do DT
look-ups.

a7ac1d9e4e regulator: ab8500: Split up probe() into manageable pieces
ab8500's probe() function is becoming quite large, so in the lead
up to Device Tree enablement which will fork the thread of execution
this patch splits it into 3 main areas; basic error checking will
remain in probe(), but regulator register initialisation and regulator
registration have been moved to their own functions which will
be called in sequence by probe() and the DT equivalent.

349f29d841 econet: remove ancient bug ridden protocol
More spring cleaning!

The ancient Econet protocol should go. Most of the bug fixes in recent
years have been fixing security vulnerabilities. The hardware hasn't
been made since the 90s, it is only interesting as an archeological curiosity.

For the truly curious, or insomniac, go read up on it.

93c2d656c7 frv: delete incorrect task prototypes causing compile fail
Commit 41101809a8 ("fork: Provide weak arch_release_[task_struct|
thread_info] functions") in -tip highlights a problem in the frv arch,
where it has needles prototypes for alloc_task_struct_node and
free_task_struct.  This now shows up as:

  kernel/fork.c:120:66: error: static declaration of 'alloc_task_struct_node' follows non-static declaration
  kernel/fork.c:127:51: error: static declaration of 'free_task_struct' follows non-static declaration

since that commit turned them into real functions.  Since arch/frv does
does not define define __HAVE_ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ALLOCATOR (i.e.  it just
uses the generic ones) it shouldn't list these at all.

  bash/1556 is trying to acquire lock:

         sys_execve+0x43/0x5a
         stub_execve+0x6c/0xc0

This is because prepare_bprm_creds grabs task->signal->cred_guard_mutex
and when do_lookup happens we try to grab task->signal->cred_guard_mutex
again in lock_trace.

Fix it using plain ptrace_may_access() helper in proc_map_files_lookup()
and in proc_map_files_readdir() instead of lock_trace(), the caller must
be CAP_SYS_ADMIN granted anyway.

   2002.

   When we block to wait for memory we have to unconditionally try and
   push out pending TCP data, otherwise we can block for an unreasonably
   long amount of time.

5c7dd710f6 ACPI / PCI / PM: Fix device PM regression related to D3hot/D3cold
Commit 1cc0c998fd ("ACPI: Fix D3hot v D3cold confusion") introduced a
bug in __acpi_bus_set_power() and changed the behavior of
acpi_pci_set_power_state() in such a way that it generally doesn't work
as expected if PCI_D3hot is passed to it as the second argument.

First off, if ACPI_STATE_D3 (equal to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD) is passed to
__acpi_bus_set_power() and the explicit_set flag is set for the D3cold
state, the function will try to execute AML method called "_PS4", which
doesn't exist.

Fix this by adding a check to ensure that the name of the AML method
to execute for transitions to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD is correct in
__acpi_bus_set_power().  Also make sure that the explicit_set flag
for ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD will be set if _PS3 is present and modify
acpi_power_transition() to avoid accessing power resources for
ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD, because they don't exist.

Second, if PCI_D3hot is passed to acpi_pci_set_power_state() as the
target state, the function will request a transition to
ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT instead of ACPI_STATE_D3.  However,
ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT is now only marked as supported if the _PR3 AML
method is defined for the given device, which is rare.  This causes
problems to happen on systems where devices were successfully put
into ACPI D3 by pci_set_power_state(PCI_D3hot) which doesn't work
now.  In particular, some unused graphics adapters are not turned
off as a result.

To fix this issue restore the old behavior of
acpi_pci_set_power_state(), which is to request a transition to
ACPI_STATE_D3 (equal to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD) if either PCI_D3hot or
PCI_D3cold is passed to it as the argument.

This approach is not ideal, because generally power should not
be removed from devices if PCI_D3hot is the target power state,
but since this behavior is relied on, we have no choice but to
restore it at the moment and spend more time on designing a
better solution in the future.

bb8187d35f MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support.
Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
of memory.  A quick search on the internet, and you see that
even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.

This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture.  There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.

One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

a88dc06cd5 scsi: delete the MCA specific drivers and driver code
The support for CONFIG_MCA is being removed, since the 20
year old hardware simply isn't capable of meeting today's
software demands on CPU and memory resources.

This commit removes the MCA specific SCSI drivers, and the
MCA specific portions of code in dual role ISA/MCA drivers.
Also, the MCA specific SCSI documentation is removed.
