      ACPI: enable C2 and Turbo-mode on Nehalem notebooks on A/C · 5d76b6f6
      Len Brown authored
      Linux has always ignored ACPI BIOS C2 with exit latency > 100 usec,
      and the ACPI spec is clear that is correct FADT-supplied C2.
      
      However, the ACPI spec explicitly states that _CST-supplied C-states
      have no latency limits.
      
      So move the 100usec C2 test out of the code shared
      by FADT and _CST code-paths, and into the FADT-specific path.
      
      This bug has not been visible until Nehalem, which advertises
      a CPU-C2 worst case exit latency on servers of 205usec.
      That (incorrect) figure is being used by BIOS writers
      on mobile Nehalem systems for the AC configuration.
      Thus, Linux ignores C2 leaving just C1, which is
      saves less power, and also impacts performance
      by preventing the use of turbo mode.

      modpost: fix segfault in sym_is() with prefixed arches · 3a5dd791
      Mike Frysinger authored
      The sym_is() compares a symbol in an attempt to automatically skip symbol
      prefixes.  It does this first by searching the real symbol with the normal
      unprefixed symbol.  But then it uses the length of the original symbol to
      check the end of the substring instead of the length of the symbol it is
      looking for.  On non-prefixed arches, this is effectively the same thing,
      so there is no problem.  On prefixed-arches, since this is exceeds by just
      one byte, a crash is rare and it is usually a NUL byte anyways.  But every
      once in a blue moon, you get the right page alignment and it segfaults.
      
      For example, on the Blackfin arch, sym_is() will be called with the real
      symbol "___mod_usb_device_table" as "symbol" when looking for the normal
      symbol "__mod_usb_device_table" as "name".  The substring will thus return
      one byte into "symbol" and store it into "match".  But then "match" will
      be indexed with the length of "symbol" instead of "name" and so we will
      exceed the storage.  i.e. the code ends up doing:
      	char foo[] = "abc"; return foo[strlen(foo)+1] == '\0';
