Cory Maccarrone authored
The current i2c-omap driver is set up for 32-bit registers, which corresponds to most OMAP devices. However, OMAP730/850 based devices use a 16-bit register size. This change modifies the driver to perform a runtime CPU type check to determine the register sizes, and uses a bit shift of either 1 or 2 bits to compute the proper register sizes for all registers.

Linus Torvalds authored
This reverts commit a069c266. It turns ou that not only was it missing a case (XFS) that needed it, but perhaps more importantly, people sometimes want to enable new modules that they hadn't had enabled before, and if such a module uses list_sort(), it can't easily be inserted any more. So rather than add a "select LIST_SORT" to the XFS case, just leave it compiled in. It's not all _that_ big, after all, and the inconvenience isn't worth it.

Linus Torvalds authored
The caller of usbfs_conn_disc_event() in some cases (but not always) already holds usbfs_mutex, so trying to protect the event counter with that lock causes nasty deadlocks. The problem was introduced by commit 554f7696 ("USB: Remove BKL from poll()") when the BLK protection was turned into using the mutex instead. So fix this by using an atomic variable instead. And while we're at it, get rid of the atrocious naming of said variable and the waitqueue it is associated with. This also cleans up the unnecessary locking in the poll routine, since the whole point of how the pollwait table works is that you can just add yourself to the waiting list, and then check the condition you're waiting for afterwards - avoiding all races. It also gets rid of the unnecessary dynamic allocation of the device status that just contained a single word. We should use f_version for this, as Dmitry Torokhov points out. That simplifies everything further.

The cs5535-gpio driver's get() function was returning the output value. This means that the GPIO pins would never work as an input, even if configured as an input. The driver should return the READ_BACK value, which is the sensed line value. To make that work when the direction is 'output', INPUT_ENABLE needs to be set. In addition, the driver was not disabling OUTPUT_ENABLE when the direction is set to 'input'. That would cause the GPIO to continue to drive the pin if the direction was ever set to output. This issue was noticed when attempting to use the gpiolib driver to read an external input. I had previously been using the char/cs5535-gpio driver.

Modify uid check in do_coredump so as to not apply it in the case of pipes. This just got noticed in testing. The end of do_coredump validates the uid of the inode for the created file against the uid of the crashing process to ensure that no one can pre-create a core file with different ownership and grab the information contained in the core when they shouldn' tbe able to. This causes failures when using pipes for a core dumps if the crashing process is not root, which is the uid of the pipe when it is created. The fix is simple. Since the check for matching uid's isn't relevant for pipes (a process can't create a pipe that the uermodehelper code will open anyway), we can just just skip it in the event ispipe is non-zero Reverts a pipe-affecting change which was accidentally made in : commit c46f739d : Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> : AuthorDate: Wed Nov 28 13:59:18 2007 +0100 : Commit: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org> : CommitDate: Wed Nov 28 10:58:01 2007 -0800 : : vfs: coredumping fix Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
