The driver assumes that endpoint 4 is always an interrupt endpoint.
Unfortunately the type differs between high-speed and full-speed
configurations while in the former case it is indeed an interrupt
endpoint this is not true for the latter case - here it is a bulk
endpoint. When sending URBs with the wrong type the kernel will
generate a warning message including backtrace. In this specific
case there will be a huge amount of warnings which can bring the system
to freeze.

To fix this we are now sending URBs to endpoint 4 using the type
found in the endpoint descriptor.

A side note: The carl9170 firmware currently specifies endpoint 4 as
interrupt endpoint even in the full-speed configuration but this has
no relevance because before this firmware is loaded the endpoint type
is as described above and after the firmware is running the stick is not
reenumerated and so the old descriptor is used.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Again, ACPICA leads the pack (47 commits), followed by cpufreq (18
  commits) and system suspend/hibernation (9 commits).

  From the new code perspective, the ACPICA update brings ACPI 5.1 to
  the table, including a new device configuration object called _DSD
  (Device Specific Data) that will hopefully help us to operate device
  properties like Device Trees do (at least to some extent) and changes
  related to supporting ACPI on ARM.

  Apart from that we have hibernation changes making it use radix trees
  to store memory bitmaps which should speed up some operations carried
  out by it quite significantly.  We also have some power management
  changes related to suspend-to-idle (the "freeze" sleep state) support
  and more preliminary changes needed to support ACPI on ARM (outside of
  ACPICA).

  The rest is fixes and cleanups pretty much everywhere.

  Specifics:

   - ACPICA update to upstream version 20140724.  That includes ACPI 5.1
     material (support for the _CCA and _DSD predefined names, changes
     related to the DMAR and PCCT tables and ARM support among other
     things) and cleanups related to using ACPICA's header files.  A
     major part of it is related to acpidump and the core code used by
     that utility.  Changes from Bob Moore, David E Box, Lv Zheng,
     Sascha Wildner, Tomasz Nowicki, Hanjun Guo.

   - Radix trees for memory bitmaps used by the hibernation core from
     Joerg Roedel.

   - Support for waking up the system from suspend-to-idle (also known
     as the "freeze" sleep state) using ACPI-based PCI wakeup signaling
     (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Fixes for issues related to ACPI button events (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - New device ID for an ACPI-enumerated device included into the
     Wildcat Point PCH from Jie Yang.

   - ACPI video updates related to backlight handling from Hans de Goede
     and Linus Torvalds.

   - Preliminary changes needed to support ACPI on ARM from Hanjun Guo
     and Graeme Gregory.

   - ACPI PNP core cleanups from Arjun Sreedharan and Zhang Rui.

Although RCU protection would be possible during diag dump, doing
so allows for concurrent table mutations which can render the
in-table offset between individual Netlink messages invalid and
thus cause legitimate sockets to be skipped in the dump.

Since the diag dump is relatively low volume and consistency is
more important than performance, the table mutex is held during
dump.

c90 section "6.7.2 Type Specifiers" says:
    "type specifiers may occur in any order"

That means that:
    short int is the same as int short
    unsigned short int is the same as int unsigned short
    etc...

checkpatch currently parses only a subset of these allowed types.

For instance: "unsigned short" and "signed short" are found by
checkpatch as a specific type, but none of the or "int short" or "int
signed short" variants are found.

Add another table for the "kernel style misordered" variants.

Add this misordered table to the findable types.

Warn when the misordered style is used.

This improves the "Missing a blank line after declarations" test as it

Using break; after a goto or return is unnecessary so emit a warning
when the break is at the same indent level.

So this emits a warning on:

	switch (foo) {
	case 1:
		goto err;
		break;
	}

but not on:

	switch (foo) {
	case 1:
		if (bar())
			goto err;
		break;
	}

Whenever files are added, moved, or deleted, the MAINTAINERS file
patterns can be out of sync or outdated.

To try to keep MAINTAINERS more up-to-date, add a one-time warning
whenever a patch does any of those.

Commit logs have various forms of commit id references.

Try to standardize on a 12 character long lower case commit id along
with a description of parentheses and the quoted subject line.

ie: commit 0123456789ab ("commit description")

If git and a git tree exists, look up the commit id and emit the
appropriate line as part of the message.

Avoid matching allocs that appear to be known small multiplications of a
sizeof with a constant because gcc as of 4.8 cannot optimize the code in
a calloc() exactly the same way as an alloc().

Look for numeric constants or what appear to be upper case only macro
#defines.

This --strict test previously worked only for what appeared to be cast
to pointer types.

Make it work for all casts.

Also, there's no reason to show the previous line for this type of
message, so don't.

checkpatch's $Type variable does not match declarations of multiple
const * types.

This can produce false positives for things like:

  $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/staging/comedi/comedidev.h
  WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
  #60: FILE: drivers/staging/comedi/comedidev.h:60:
  +       const struct comedi_lrange *range_table;
  +       const struct comedi_lrange *const *range_table_list;

Fix the $Type variable to support matching multiple "* const" uses.

There are some patches created by git format-patch that when scanned by

This is a checkpatch false positive.
