2008-06-04lt2p: Fix possible WARN_ON from socket code when UDP socket is closedJames Chapman
If an L2TP daemon closes a tunnel socket while packets are queued in the tunnel's reorder queue, a kernel warning is logged because the socket is closed while skbs are still referencing it. The fix is to purge the queue in the socket's release handler.

2008-06-04ipw2200: expire and use oldest BSS on adhoc createDan Williams
If there are no networks on the free list, expire the oldest one when creating a new adhoc network. Because ipw2200 and the ieee80211 stack don't actually cull old networks and place them back on the free list unless they are needed for new probe responses, over time the free list would become empty and creating an adhoc network would fail due to the ! list_empty(...) check.

The following commit (4c9bf4e799ce06a7378f1196587084802a414c03): libata: replace tf_read with qc_fill_rtf for non-SFF drivers Broke the sata_fsl.c driver in 2.6.26-rc. I know the following patch fixes the issue, it clearly also adds port multipler support. The current 2.6.26-rc driver is broken. On boot with debug enabled we get something like (w/o this patch): spurious interrupt!!, CC = 0x1 interrupt status 0x1 xx_scr_read, reg_in = 1 spurious interrupt!!, CC = 0x1 interrupt status 0x1 xx_scr_read, reg_in = 1 spurious interrupt!!, CC = 0x1 interrupt status 0x1 xx_scr_read, reg_in = 1 .. continues for ever.

Also, the ich8m_apple_sata entry was wrongly added below generic ich8m entry making it virtually useless. This patch works around macbook ich8m problems by * moving ich8m_apple_sata entry above generic ich8m entry * dropping PIIX_FLAG_SIDPR from ich8m_apple_sata * adding subsystem 106b:00a1 as ich8m_apple_sata Reported and tested by MATSUBAYASHI.

The driver incorrectly assumed that putchar will only be called from schedulable process context and therefore blocked and waited if no free output buffers where available. Since putchar may also be called from BH context this may lead to deadlocks. To fix this just return the number of characters accepted and let the upper layer handle the rest. The console write function will busy wait (sclp_sync_wait) until a buffer is available again.

Calling the generic vmemmap_alloc_block() function to get initialized memory is a nice idea, however that function is __meminit annotated and therefore the function might be gone if we try to call it later. This can happen if a DCSS segment gets added. So basically revert the patch and clear the memmap explicitly to fix the original bug.

2008-05-30[S390] tape: Fix race condition in tape block device driverMichael Holzheu
Due to incorrect function call sequence it can happen that a tape block request is finished before the request is taken from the block request queue. The following sequence leads to that condition: * tapeblock_start_request() -> start CCW program * Request finishes -> IO interrupt * tapeblock_end_request() * end_that_request_last() If blkdev_dequeue_request() has not been called before end_that_request_last(), a kernel bug is triggered in end_that_request_last() because the request is still queued. To solve that problem blkdev_dequeue_request() has to be called before starting the CCW program.
