There are cases in which a device's memory mapped registers overlap
with another device's memory mapped registers. On several PowerPC
devices this occurs for the MDIO bus, whose registers tended to overlap
with one of the ethernet controllers.
By switching from request_resource to insert_resource we can register
the MDIO bus as a proper platform device and not hack around how we
handle its memory mapped registers.

The klist reference counting in the find functions that use
klist_iter_init_node is broken. If the function (for example
driver_find_device) is called with a NULL start object then everything is
fine, the first call to next_device()/klist_next increases the ref-count of
the first node on the list and does nothing for the start object which is
NULL.
If they are called with a valid start object then klist_next will decrement
the ref-count for the start object but nobody has incremented it. Logical
place to fix this would be klist_iter_init_node because the function puts a
reference of the object into the klist_iter struct.

This patch (as604) makes the driver core hold a device's parent's lock
as well as the device's lock during calls to the probe and remove
methods in a driver. This facility is needed by USB device drivers,
owing to the peculiar way USB devices work:
A device provides multiple interfaces, and drivers are bound
to interfaces rather than to devices;
Nevertheless a reset, reset-configuration, suspend, or resume
affects the entire device and requires the caller to hold the
lock for the device, not just a lock for one of the interfaces.
Since a USB driver's probe method is always called with the interface
lock held, the locking order rules (always lock parent before child)
prevent these methods from acquiring the device lock. The solution
provided here is to call all probe and remove methods, for all devices
(not just USB), with the parent lock already acquired.
Although currently only the USB subsystem requires these changes, people
have mentioned in prior discussion that the overhead of acquiring an
extra semaphore in all the prove/remove sequences is not overly large.
Up to now, the USB core has been using its own set of private
semaphores. A followup patch will remove them, relying entirely on the
device semaphores provided by the driver core.
The code paths affected by this patch are:
device_add and device_del: The USB core already holds the parent
lock, so no actual change is needed.
driver_register and driver_unregister: The driver core will now
lock both the parent and the device before probing or removing.
driver_bind and driver_unbind (in sysfs): These routines will
now lock both the parent and the device before binding or
unbinding.
bus_rescan_devices: The helper routine will lock the parent
before probing a device.
I have not tested this patch for conflicts with other subsystems. As
far as I can see, the only possibility of conflict would lie in the
bus_rescan_devices pathway, and it seems pretty remote. Nevertheless,
it would be good for this to get a lot of testing in -mm.

The distinction between hotplug and uevent does not make sense these
days, netlink events are the default.
udev depends entirely on netlink uevents. Only during early boot and
in initramfs, /sbin/hotplug is needed. So merge the two functions and
provide only one interface without all the options.
The netlink layer got a nice generic interface with named slots
recently, which is probably a better facility to plug events for
subsystem specific events.
Also the new poll() interface to /proc/mounts is a nicer way to
notify about changes than sending events through the core.
The uevents should only be used for driver core related requests to
userspace now.

This deprecates the /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug file, as all
this stuff should be in /sys some day, right? :)
In /sys/kernel/ we have now uevent_seqnum and uevent_helper.
The seqnum is no longer used by udev, as the version for this
kernel depends on netlink which events will never get
out-of-order.
Recent udev versions disable the /sbin/hotplug helper with
an init script, cause it leads to OOM on big boxes by running
hundreds of shells in parallel. It should be done now by:
echo "" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper

Some G5s still occasionally experience shutdowns due to overtemp
conditions despite the recent fix. After analyzing logs from such
machines, it appears that the overtemp code is a bit too quick at
shutting the machine down when reaching the critical temperature (tmax +
8) and doesn't leave the fan enough time to actually cool it down. This
happens if the temperature of a CPU suddenly rises too high in a very
short period of time, or occasionally on boot (that is the CPUs are
already overtemp by the time the driver loads).
This patches makes the code a bit more relaxed, leaving a few seconds to
the fans to do their job before kicking the machine shutown.

This is a slightly more complete fix for the previous minimal sysctl

For the sysctl syscall, if the user wants to get the old value of a
sysctl entry and set a new value for it in the same syscall, the old
value is always overwritten by the new value if the sysctl entry is of
string type and if the user sets its strategy to sysctl_string. This
issue lies in the strategy being run twice if the strategy is set to
sysctl_string, the general strategy sysctl_string always returns 0 if
success.
Such strategy routines as sysctl_jiffies and sysctl_jiffies_ms return 1
because they do read and write for the sysctl entry.
The strategy routine sysctl_string return 0 although it actually read
and write the sysctl entry.
According to my analysis, if a strategy routine do read and write, it
should return 1, if it just does some necessary check but not read and
write, it should return 0, for example sysctl_intvec.

Don't use printk() where "current_thread_info()" is crap.
Until when we switch to running on init_stack, current_thread_info() evaluates
to crap. Printk uses "current" at times (in detail, ¤t is evaluated with
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK to check the spinlock owner task).
And this leads to random segmentation faults.
Exactly, what happens is that ¤t = *(current_thread_info()), i.e. round
down $esp and dereference the value. I.e. access the stack below $esp, which
causes SIGSEGV on a VM_GROWSDOWN vma (see arch/i386/mm/fault.c).

muck around with the card memory map and is forcing it back into a wrong
setting that also happens to no longer match what the DRM wants to do
and blows up. There are bugs all over the place in that code (and still
some bugs in the DRM as well anyway).
This patch attempts to avoid that by using the largest of the 2 values,

still fix the problem with machines that have an aperture size smaller

2) Add locking to source filter list [resend of prior patch]
3) fix "mld_marksources()" to

b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are
not excluded
c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report
NOTE: RFC 3810 specifies the source list should be saved and each
source reported individually as an IS_IN. This is an obvious DOS
path, requiring the host to store and then multicast as many sources
as are queried (e.g., millions...). This alternative sends a full,
relevant report that's limited to number of sources present on the
machine.
4) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should
The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source
list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that
short-circuit case, and also generates the group header
with an empty list if needed.
