The functions the functions amd_ec_wait_write and amd_ec_wait_read have an
unsigned return type, but return a negative constant to indicate an error
condition.

A sematic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@exists@
identifier f;
constant C;
@@

 unsigned f(...)
 { <+...
*  return -C;
 ...+> }
// </smpl>

Fixing amd_ec_wait_write and amd_ec_wait_read leads to the need to adjust
the return type of the functions amd_ec_write and amd_ec_read, which are
the only functions that call amd_ec_wait_write and amd_ec_wait_read.
amd_ec_write and amd_ec_read, in turn, are only called from within the
function amd8111_access, which already returns a signed typed value.  Each
of the calls to amd_ec_write and amd_ec_read are updated using the
following semantic patch:

// <smpl>
@@
@@

+ status = amd_ec_write
- amd_ec_write
  (...);
+ if (status) return status;

@@
@@

+ status = amd_ec_read
- amd_ec_read
  (...);
+ if (status) return status;
// </smpl>

The patch also adds the declaration of the status variable.

drivers/i2c/algos/Kconfig makes all the algorithms dependent on
!I2C_HELPER_AUTO, which triggers a Kconfig warning about broken
dependencies when some driver selects one of the algorithms. Ideally
we would make only the prompts dependent on !I2C_HELPER_AUTO, however
Kconfig doesn't currently support that. So we have to redefine the
symbols separately for the I2C_HELPER_AUTO=y case.

blk_throtl_exit() frees the throttle data hanging off the queue
in blk_cleanup_queue(), but blk_put_queue() will indirectly
dereference this data when calling blk_sync_queue() which in
turns calls throtl_shutdown_timer_wq().

Fix this by moving the freeing of the throttle data to when
the queue is truly being released, and post the call to
blk_sync_queue().

This reverts commit f4a3e0bc.  Jiri
Sladby points out that the tty structure we're using may already be
gone, and Al Viro doesn't hold back in complaining about the random
loading of 'filp->private_data' which doesn't have to be a pointer at
all, nor does checking the magic field for TTY_MAGIC prove anything.

Belated review by Al:

 "a) global variable depending on stdin of the last opener? Affecting
     output of read(2)? Really?

  b) iterator is broken; list should be locked in ->start(), unlocked in
     ->stop() and *NOT* unlocked/relocked in ->next()

  c) ->show() ought to do nothing in case of ->device == NULL, instead
     of skipping those in ->next()/->start()

  d) regardless of the merits of the bright idea about asterisk at that
     line in output *and* regardless of (a), the implementation is not
     only atrociously ugly, it's actually very likely to be a roothole.
     Verifying that Cthulhu knows what number happens to be address of a
     tty_struct by blindly dereferencing memory at that address...
     Ouch.

  Please revert that crap."

And Christoph pipes in and NAK's the approach of walking fd tables etc
too.  So it's pretty unanimous.

This allows other projects to carry copies of the header file related
to ABI and disk format (i.e. "nilfs2_fs.h") without it or distributors
having to worry about effects on the project's overall license terms.
It's also desired for switching the license of nilfs library to LGPL.

Jiro SEKIBA pointed out these license issues (Message-ID:
<87tylo7msw.wl%jir@sekiba.com>), and he suggested switching license of
the library and nilfs2_fs.h to GNU Lesser General Public License.  We

This finally removes own inode allocator and destructor functions for
metadata files.  Several routines, nilfs_mdt_new(),
nilfs_mdt_new_common(), nilfs_mdt_clear(), nilfs_mdt_destroy(), and
nilfs_alloc_inode_common() will be gone.

Nilfs object holds a back pointer to a writable super block instance
in nilfs->ns_writer, and this became eliminable since sb is now made
per device and all inodes have a valid pointer to it.

This deletes the ns_writer pointer and a reader/writer semaphore
protecting it.
