c3b92ce9e7 ramoops: use the platform data structure instead of module params
As each board and system has different memory for ramoops.  It's better to
define the platform data instead of module params.

Both mxser_disable_must_enchance_mode() and mxser_get_must_hardware_id()

the functions under CONFIG_PCI.

We were warned by the following warning.

ffd7d6baa6 synclink_gt: fix per device locking
Fix a long standing bug with per device locking.

Each device has an associated spinlock for synchronizing access to
hardware and state information with the ISR.  A single hardware card has
one or more devices.

Bug: Non ISR code correctly acquires and releases the per device lock.
ISR incorrectly always acquires and releases the lock of the first device
on the card.

The decoupled and list based nature of the ISR and deferred processing
interaction allowed this to work in normal operation.  Exceptional events
like an application forcing hardware shutdown, reset, or reconfiguration
while active can trigger the bug.

Fixed ISR to acquire and release the per device lock.

One exception is manipulation of the GPIO card resource which is global
and effectively owned by the first device of the card.  Non-ISR access to
GPIO resource is changed to use lock of first device on card.

Clearing the HPET interrupt enable bit disables interrupt generation
but does not disable the timer, so the interrupt status bit will still
be set when the timer elapses.  If another interrupt arrives before
the timer has been correctly programmed (due to some other device on
the same interrupt line, or CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ), this results in an
extra unwanted interrupt event because the status bit is likely to be
set from comparator matches that happened before the device was opened.

Therefore, we have to ensure that the interrupt status bit is and
stays cleared until we actually program the timer.

a56d531871 hpet: unmap unused I/O space
When the initialization code in hpet finds a memory resource and does not
find an IRQ, it does not unmap the memory resource previously mapped.

There are buggy BIOSes which report resources exactly like this and what
is worse the memory region bases point to normal RAM.  This normally would
not matter since the space is not touched.  But when PAT is turned on,
ioremap causes the page to be uncached and sets this bit in page->flags.

Then when the page is about to be used by the allocator, it is reported
as:

BUG: Bad page state in process md5sum  pfn:3ed00
page:ffffea0000dbd800 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:(null) index:0x0
page flags: 0x20000001000000(uncached)
Pid: 7956, comm: md5sum Not tainted 2.6.34-12-desktop #1
Call Trace:
 [<ffffffff810df851>] bad_page+0xb1/0x100
 [<ffffffff810dfa45>] prep_new_page+0x1a5/0x1c0
 [<ffffffff810dfe01>] get_page_from_freelist+0x3a1/0x640
 [<ffffffff810e01af>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x10f/0x6b0
...

In this particular case:

1) HPET returns 3ed00000 as memory region base, but it is not in
reserved ranges reported by the BIOS (excerpt):
 BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 00000000af6cf000 (usable)
 BIOS-e820: 00000000af6cf000 - 00000000afdcf000 (reserved)

2) there is no IRQ resource reported by HPET method. On the other
hand, the Intel HPET specs (1.0a) says (3.2.5.1):
_CRS (
  // Report 1K of memory consumed by this Timer Block
  memory range consumed
  // Optional: only used if BIOS allocates Interrupts [1]
  IRQs consumed
)

[1] For case where Timer Block is configured to consume IRQ0/IRQ8 AND
Legacy 8254/Legacy RTC hardware still exists, the device objects
associated with 8254 & RTC devices should not report IRQ0/IRQ8 as
"consumed resources".

So in theory we should check whether if it is the case and use those
interrupts instead.

Anyway the address reported by the BIOS here is bogus, so non-presence
of IRQ doesn't mean the "optional" part in point 2).

Since I got no reply previously, fix this by simply unmapping the space
when IRQ is not found and memory region was mapped previously.  It would
be probably more safe to walk the resources again and unmap appropriately
depending on type.  But as we now use only ioremap for both 2 memory
resource types, it is not necessarily needed right now.

4a3956c790 vfs: introduce FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET for allowing negative f_pos
Now, rw_verify_area() checsk f_pos is negative or not.  And if negative,
returns -EINVAL.

But, some special files as /dev/(k)mem and /proc/<pid>/mem etc..  has
negative offsets.  And we can't do any access via read/write to the
file(device).

So introduce FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET to allow negative file offsets.

432c9ed22a vcs: invoke the vt update callback when /dev/vcs* is written to
A notifier chain is called whenever the vt code modifies a terminal
content, except for one case which is when the modification comes
through writes to /dev/vcs* devices.  Let's add the missing notifier
invocation at the end of vcs_write() for that case too.

47725ac76f vcs: add poll/fasync support
The /dev/vcs* devices are used, amongst other things, by accessibility
applications such as BRLTTY to display the screen content onto refreshable
braille displays.  Currently this is performed by constantly reading from
/dev/vcsa0 whether or not the screen content has changed.  Given the
default braille refresh rate of 25 times per second, this easily qualifies
as the biggest source of wake-up events preventing laptops from entering
deeper power saving states.

To avoid this periodic polling, let's add support for select()/poll() and
SIGIO with the /dev/vcs* devices.  The implemented semantic is to report
data availability whenever the corresponding vt has seen some update after
the last read() operation.  The application still has to lseek() back
as usual in order to read() the new data.

Not to create unwanted overhead, the needed data structure is allocated
and the vt notification callback is registered only when the poll or
fasync method is invoked for the first time per file instance.

df480518a6 Char: mxser, call pci_disable_device from probe/remove
Vasiliy found that pci_disable_device is not called on fail paths in
mxser_probe. Actually, it is called from nowhere in the driver.

There are three changes needed:
1) don't use pseudo-generic mxser_release_res. Let's use it only from
   ISA paths from now on. All the pci stuff is moved to probe and
   remove PCI-related functions.
2) reorder fail-paths in the probe function so that it makes sense and
   we can call them from the sequential code naturally (the further we
   are the earlier label we go to).
3) add pci_disable_device both to mxser_probe and mxser_remove.

There is a nit of adding CONFIG_PCI ifdef to mxser_remove. it is
because this driver supports ISA-only compilations and it would choke
up on the newly added calls now.
