Yoann Padioleau dd00cc486a some kmalloc/memset ->kzalloc (tree wide)

Rafael J. Wysocki 8314418629 Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

We need to take serio->drv_mutex in serio_cleanup() to prevent the
function from being called while driver is in the middle of attaching
to a serio port. Such situation can happen with i8042 and atkbd drivers
if user rapidly presses Ctrl-Alt-Del during system startup, and leads
to kernel oops.

Roland Scheidegger d2ada5597d Input: i8042 - fix AUX port detection with some chips
The i8042 driver fails detection of the AUX port with some chips,
because they apparently do not change the I8042_CTR_AUXDIS bit
immediately. This is known to affect at least HP500/HP510 notebooks,
consequently the built-in touchpad will not work. The patch will simply
reread the value until it gets the expected value or a retry limit is
hit, without touching other workaround code in the same area.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

David Howells 65f27f3844 WorkStruct: Pass the work_struct pointer instead of context data
Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.

For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.

To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct.  This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.

Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function.  This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated..  This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).

However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems.  But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().

In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default.  Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

Dmitry Torokhov 9d92fe17b6 Input: serio - remove serio_unregister_port_delayed()
Now that i8042 reserves IRQs early there are no more users of this
function and it should be removed.

Dmitry Torokhov a216a4b6e6 Input: i8042 - fix shutdown issue on some boxes with active MUXes
MUX error handling has a workaround for KBCs that get confused which
port data came from and signal MUXERR while data is actually good.
Unfortunately this workaround hurts with KBCs that signal timeouts
as 0xfc (spec says that only 0xfd, 0xfe and 0xff are alowed with
MUXERR) since it causes endless attempts to rescan i8042 serio
ports. The solution is to treat 0xfc as timeout (0xfe).

Dmitry Torokhov f4e3c711b3 Input: i8042 - remove unneeded call to i8042_interrupt()
Remove call to i8042_interrupt() from i8042_aux_write(). According
to Vojtech it may cause problems with older controllers if it is
called right after real interrupt. Also it is not needed anymore
since we register IRQs early and not waiting for serio ports to
be opened.
