      SCSI: remove fake "address-of" expression · e6da54d8
      Alan Stern authored 
      Fake "address-of" expressions that evaluate to NULL generally confuse
readers and can provoke compiler warnings.  This patch (as1411) removes
one such fake expression, using an "#ifdef" in its place.

      kconfig: fix make oldconfig · 14828349

 This seems to make "make oldconfig" a _lot_ more verbose than it
 used to be. In a very annoying way.

 I just did a quick git bisect. It's introduced by commit 4062f1a4
 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") by Sam Ravnborg. Apparently that
 thing is totally buggy, and doesn't just change the option names, but
 actively breaks them.

The old behaviour (from years ago) were reintroduced by accident.  Fix
this so we are back to the version that are silent if there is nothing
to ask about.

      Fix init ordering of /dev/console vs callers of modprobe · 31d1d48e
      David Howells authored 
      Make /dev/console get initialised before any initialisation routine that
invokes modprobe because if modprobe fails, it's going to want to open
/dev/console, presumably to write an error message to.

The problem with that is that if the /dev/console driver is not yet
initialised, the chardev handler will call request_module() to invoke
modprobe, which will fail, because we never compile /dev/console as a
module.

This will lead to a modprobe loop, showing the following in the kernel
log:

	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1

This can happen, for example, when the built in md5 module can't find
the built in cryptomgr module (because the latter fails to initialise).
The md5 module comes before the call to tty_init(), presumably because
'crypto' comes before 'drivers' alphabetically.

Fix this by calling tty_init() from chrdev_init().

      KEYS: request_key() should return -ENOKEY if the constructed key is negative · 1e456a12
      David Howells authored 
      request_key() should return -ENOKEY if the key it constructs has been
negatively instantiated.

Without this, request_key() can return an unusable key to its caller,
and if the caller then does key_validate() that won't catch the problem.
