The Linux kernel ignored the PROM's serial settings (115200,n,8,1 in
my case). This was because mode_prop remained "ttyX-mode" (expected:
"ttya-mode") due to the constness of string literals when used with
"char *". Since there is no "ttyX-mode" property in the PROM, Linux
always used the default 9600.

away the stores, yet did not emit a warning, which is a pretty
anti-social thing to do and is the only reason this bug lived for
so long -DaveM ]

Fix an Oops in the cciss driver caused by system shutdown while a
filesystem on a cciss device is still active. The cciss_remove_one
function only properly removes the device if the device has been cleanly
released by its users, which is not the case when the pci_driver.shutdown
method is called.
This patch adds a new cciss_shutdown function to better match the pattern
used by various SCSI drivers: deactivate device interrupts and flush
caches. It also alters the cciss_remove_one function to match and readds
the __devexit annotation that was removed when cciss_remove_one was serving
as the pci_driver.shutdown method.

value on pentium3 SMP kernel-2.6.21.1)
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8469
As discussed in the bugzilla outlined below, we have an sa based
(Mustang) RAID adapter on the system, a Dell PERC2/QC. Affected
controllers are HP NetRAID, Adaptec AAC-364, Dell PERC2/QC or Adaptec
5400S. This problem coincides with the introduction of the adapter_comm
and adapter_deliver platform functions (Message [PATCH 1/4] aacraid:
rework communication support code, January 23 2007, which initially
migrated to 2.6.21)
The panic occurs with an uninitialized adapter_deliver platform function
pointer. The enclosed patch, unmodified as tested by Rainer, solves the
problem.

Strip __cpuinit[data] from Node <-> PXM routines and supporting data
structures. Also make pxm_to_node_map and node_to_pxm_map local to the
numa acpi module.
This fixes a bug triggered by the following conditions:
- boot on a machine with a SLIT table defined
- kernel is configured w/ CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n
- cat /sys/devices/system/node/node*/distance
This will cause an oops by calling into a freed memory section.
In particular, on x86_64, __node_distance calls node_to_pxm().

The bug is caused by code that always set
(TG3_FLAG_USE_MI_INTERRUPT | TG3_FLAG_USE_LINKCHG_REG) on all Dell's
onboard devices. With these 2 flags set, the link status is polled
by tg3_timer() and will only work when the PHY is set up to interrupt
the MAC on link changes. This breaks 5906 because the 5906 PHY does
not support TG3_FLAG_USE_MI_INTERRUPT the same as other PHYs.
For correctness, only 5701 on Dell systems needs these 2 flags to be
set. This change will fix the 5906 problem and will change other
Dell devices except 5700 and 5701 to use the more efficient
interrupt-driven link changes.
Update version to 3.75.2.

The Via VT3351 APIC does not play well with MSI and unleashes a flood
of APIC errors when MSI is used to deliver interrupts. The problem
was recently exposed when the atl1 network device driver, which enables
MSI by default, stimulated APIC errors on an Asus M2V mainboard, which
employs the Via VT3351.

ZD1211 appears to be back in production: a number of new devices have
been appearing! Some of them are using new radios.
This patch adds support for the next generation AL2230 RF chip which has
been spotted in a few new devices.
[As this patch was too late for 2.6.21, the kernel was modified to reject
AL2230S devices because for me and others, the devices silently failed (and
this looked like a driver bug). After doing so, a few people reported that
AL2230S devices were working correctly for them even before AL2230S support was
present. I'd like to propose that we fix both situations by backporting
the AL2230S support into 2.6.21-stable]

This adds a real parent device to eth1394's ethX device like in Linux
2.6.20 and older. However, due to unfinished conversion of the ieee1394
away from class_device, we now refer to the FireWire controller's PCI
device as the parent, not to the ieee1394 driver's fw-host device.
Having a real parent device instead of a virtual one allows udev scripts
to distinguish eth1394 interfaces from networking bridges, bondings and
the likes.
Fixes a regression since 2.6.21:

To assure the symmetry of poll enable/disable in up/down, we should

If a raid0 has a component device larger than 4TB, and is accessed on
a 32bit machines, then as 'chunk' is unsigned lock,
chunk << chunksize_bits
can overflow (this can be as high as the size of the device in KB).
chunk itself will not overflow (without triggering a BUG).
So change 'chunk' to be 'sector_t, and get rid of the 'BUG' as it becomes
impossible to hit.

Currently, devt_attr for the "dev" file is freed immediately on device
removal, but if the "dev" sysfs file is open when a device is removed,
sysfs will access its attribute structure for further access including
close resulting in jumping to garbled address. Fix it by postponing
freeing devt_attr to device release time.
Note that devt_attr for class_device is already freed on release.

through md/raid1 to a filesystem.
When a raid1 has only one working drive, we want read error to
propagate up to the filesystem as there is no point failing the last
drive in an array.
Currently the code perform this check is racy. If a write and a read
a both submitted to a device on a 2-drive raid1, and the write fails
followed by the read failing, the read will see that there is only one
working drive and will pass the failure up, even though the one
working drive is actually the *other* one.
So, tighten up the locking.

The reset was added a while back so that ASF could re-init whatever
MAC address it wanted to use after the MAC address was changed.
Instead of resetting, we can just keep MAC address 1 unchanged during
MAC address changes if MAC address 1 is different from MAC address 0.
This fixes 2 problems:
1. Bonding calls set_mac_address in contexts that cannot sleep.
It no longer sleeps with the chip reset removed.
2. When ASF shares the same MAC address as the NIC, it needs to
always do that even when the MAC address is changed.

As part of the device initialisation cxacru_atm_start starts
a rearming status polling task, which is cancelled in
cxacru_unbind. Failure to ever start the task means an
infinite loop occurs trying to cancel it.
Possible reasons for not starting the polling task:
* Firmware files missing
* Device initialisation fails
* User unplugs device or unloads module
Effect:
* Infinite loop in khubd trying to add/remove the device (or rmmod if timed right)

Just found a hole in my last patch. It was reported to me that shortly after we
integrated this patch. The report was of an oops that took place inside of
netif_rx when using the sis900 driver. Looking at my origional patch I noted
that there was a spot between the new skb_alloc and the refill_rx_ring label
where skb got reassigned to the pointer currently held in the rx_ring for the
purposes of receiveing the frame. The result of this is however that the buffer
that gets passed to netif_rx (if it is called), then gets placed right back into
the rx_ring. So if you receive frames fast enough the skb being processed by
the network stack can get corrupted. The reporter is testing out the fix I've
written for this below (I'm not near my hardware at the moment to test myself),
but I wanted to post it for review ASAP. I'll post test results when I hear
them, but I think this is a pretty straightforward fix. It just uses a separate
pointer to do the rx operation, so that we don't improperly reassign the pointer
that we use to refill the rx ring.
