      serial: fix driver_name conflicts · 4feead71
      Anton Vorontsov authored 
      Some drivers are using too generic "serial" name for driver_name, this
might cause issues, like this:

Freescale QUICC Engine UART device driver
proc_dir_entry 'serial' already registered

[cf82dff0] [c000fa74] kernel_thread+0x44/0x60

^^ The board is using ucc_uart.c and 8250.c, both registered as
   "serial".

This patch fixes two drivers that are using "serial" for driver_name and
not "ttyS" for dev_name.  Drivers that are using "ttyS" for dev_name, will
conflict anyway, so we don't bother with these.

Fix is the same way that mm/memory.c copy_page_range does the
lockdep annotation.

      modedb: fix incorrect sync and vmode flags for CVT modes · e2d4ecaf
      Krzysztof Helt authored 
      The temporary structure for calculated CVT mode is not initialized.  Few
fields have only bits or-ed or and-ed so they may be left in incorrect
(random) state.

Testing of the tridentfb seems like a good exercise for the fbdev layer.

      md: do not compute parity unless it is on a failed drive · c337869d
      Dan Williams authored 
      If a block is computed (rather than read) then a check/repair operation
may be lead to believe that the data on disk is correct, when infact it
isn't.  So only compute blocks for failed devices.

This issue has been around since at least 2.6.12, but has become harder to
hit in recent kernels since most reads bypass the cache.

echo repair > /sys/block/mdN/md/sync_action will set the parity blocks to the
correct state.

      md: fix prexor vs sync_request race · e0a115e5
      Dan Williams authored 
      During the initial array synchronization process there is a window between
when a prexor operation is scheduled to a specific stripe and when it
completes for a sync_request to be scheduled to the same stripe.  When
this happens the prexor completes and the stripe is unconditionally marked
"insync", effectively canceling the sync_request for the stripe.  Prior to
2.6.23 this was not a problem because the prexor operation was done under
sh->lock.  The effect in older kernels being that the prexor would still
erroneously mark the stripe "insync", but sync_request would be held off
and re-mark the stripe as "!in_sync".

Change the write completion logic to not mark the stripe "in_sync" if a
prexor was performed.  The effect of the change is to sometimes not set
STRIPE_INSYNC.  The worst this can do is cause the resync to stall waiting
for STRIPE_INSYNC to be set.  If this were happening, then STRIPE_SYNCING
would be set and handle_issuing_new_read_requests would cause all
available blocks to eventually be read, at which point prexor would never
be used on that stripe any more and STRIPE_INSYNC would eventually be set.

echo repair > /sys/block/mdN/md/sync_action will correct arrays that may
have lost this race.

      spi: fix refcount-related spidev oops-on-rmmod · b2c8dadd
      David Brownell authored 
      This addresses other oopsing paths in "spidev" by changing how it manages
refcounting.  It decouples the lifecycle of the per-device data from the
class device (not just the spi device):

  - Use class_{create,destroy} not class_{register,unregister}.
  - Use device_{create,destroy} not device_{register,unregister}.
  - Free the per-device data only when TWO conditions are true:
      * Driver is unbound from underlying SPI device, and
      * Device is no longer open (new)

Also, spi_{get,set}_drvdata not dev_{get,set}_drvdata for simpler code.
