cfq uses rq->start_time as the fifo indicator, but that field may get modified prior to cfq doing it's fifo list adjustment when a request gets merged with another request. This can cause the fifo list to become unordered. Reported-by: Corrado Zoccolo <czoccolo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

I'm skipping -rc2 because the -rc1 Makefile mistakenly said -rc2, so in order to avoid confusion, I'm jumping from -rc1 to -rc3. That way, when 'uname' (or an oops report) says 2.6.32-rc2, there's no confusion about whether people perhaps meant -rc1 or -rc2.

If i2c device probing fails, then there is no driver to dereference after calling i2c_new_device(). Stop assuming that probing will always succeed, to avoid NULL pointer dereferences. We have an easier access to the driver anyway. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Tested-by: Tim Shepard <shep@alum.mit.edu> Cc: Colin Leroy <colin@colino.net>

There's no point in causing the driver core to print more error messages, so return one of the error codes for which no message is printed.

There is no point in implementing a detect callback for the LTC4215 and LTC4245, as these devices can't be detected. It was there solely to handle "force" module parameters to instantiate devices, but now we have a better sysfs interface that can do the same. So we can get rid of the ugly module parameters and the detect callbacks. This shrinks the binary module sizes by 36% and 46%, respectively.

A couple of people have hit the WARN_ON() in drivers/char/tty_io.c, tty_open() that is unhappy about seeing the tty line discipline go away during the tty hangup. See for example http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14255 and the reason is that we do the tty_ldisc_halt() outside the ldisc_mutex in order to be able to flush the scheduled work without a deadlock with vhangup_work. However, it turns out that we can solve this particular case by - using "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" in tty_ldisc_halt(), which waits for just the particular work, rather than synchronizing with any random outstanding pending work. This won't deadlock, since the buf.work we synchronize with doesn't care about the ldisc_mutex, it just flushes the tty ldisc buffers. - realize that for this particular case, we don't need to wait for any hangup work, because we are inside the hangup codepaths ourselves. so as a result we can just drop the flush_scheduled_work() entirely, and then move the tty_ldisc_halt() call to inside the mutex. That way we never expose the partially torn down ldisc state to tty_open(), and hold the ldisc_mutex over the whole sequence.

This patch fixes the m32r SMP kernel after 2.6.27. A part of the following patch breaks m32r SMP operation. > m32r: convert to generic helpers for IPI function calls > commit 7b7426c8 In the above patch, a CALL_FUNC_SINGLE_IPI was newly introduced, but the its IPI vector number was wrong in the patch code. The m32r SMP kernel hanged-up during boot operation, because the CPU_BOOT_IPI was called instead of CALL_FUNC_SINGLE_IPI (CPU_BOOT_IPI had no side effect at that time because the 2nd core had already been started up), as a result, csd_unlock() was not called, then a dead lock occurred in csd_lock_wait() after the detection of Compact Flash memory as IDE generic disk.
