      Documentation: ABI: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/ topology files · 663fb2fc
      Alex Chiang authored
      Add brief descriptions for the following sysfs files:
      
      	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_id
      	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_siblings
      	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_siblings_list
      	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/physical_package_id
      	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/thread_siblings
      	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/thread_siblings_list
      
      The descriptions in Documentation/cputopology.txt weren't very
      informative, so I attempted a better description based on code
      reading and hopeful guessing.
      
      Updated Documentation/cputopology.txt with the better descriptions and
      fixed some style issues.

      Driver core: allow certain drivers prohibit bind/unbind via sysfs · 1a6f2a75
      Dmitry Torokhov authored
      Platform drivers registered via platform_driver_probe() can be bound
      to devices only once, upon registration, because discard their probe()
      routines to save memory. Unbinding the driver through sysfs 'unbind'
      leaves the device stranded and confuses users so let's not create
      bind and unbind attributes for such drivers.

      Driver core: fix driver_register() return value · 39acbc12
      Stas Sergeev authored
      In this patch:
      http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=16dc42e018c2868211b4928f20a957c0c216126c
      the check was added for another driver to already claim the same device
      on the same bus. But the returned error code was wrong: to modprobe, the
      -EEXIST means that _this_ driver is already installed. It therefore
      doesn't produce the needed error message when _another_ driver is trying
      to register for the same device.  Returning -EBUSY fixes the problem.

      USB: serial: sierra driver autopm fixes · b64dc0a5
      Elina Pasheva authored
      This patch presents fixes for the autosuspend feature implementation in
      sierra usb serial driver in  functions sierra_open(), sierra_close() and
      stop_read_write_urbs().
      
      The patch "sierra_close() must resume the device before it notifies it
      of a closure" submitted by Oliver Neukum on Wed, October 14 has been
      merged as fix in sierra_close() function.
      
      The bug fix  in sierra_open() function restores the autopm interface
      state on error condition.
      
      The bug fix in in stop_read_write_urbs() function assures that both
      receive and interrupt urbs are recycled.

      USB: serial: sierra driver send_setup() autopm fix · 3c77d513
      Elina Pasheva authored
      This patch presents a fix for the autosuspend feature implementation in
      sierra usb serial driver for function sierra_send_setup().  Because it
      is possible to call sierra_send_setup() before sierra_open() or after
      sierra_close() we added a get/put interface activity to assure that the
      usb control can happen even when the device is autosuspended.

      On rtl81* additions, they had its wireless stack made builtin instead of
      separated modules. But try_module_get/module_put in stack were kept,
      they are uneeded with the stack builtin and makes rtl81* modules
      impossible to remove on a system with an rtl81* card. request_module
      calls are also uneeded with stack builtin, so remove them too.

      Staging: Panel: prevent driver from calling misc_deregister twice on same ressource · 0b0595bf
      Peter Huewe authored
      This patch prevents the driver from calling misc_deregister twice on the same
      ressouce when unloading the driver.
      Unloading the driver without this patch results in a Kernel BUG like this:
      Panel driver version 0.9.5 registered on parport0 (io=0x378).
      BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000100108
      IP: [<ffffffff803c02ee>] misc_deregister+0x2d/0x90
      PGD 6caff067 PUD 762b7067 PMD 0
      Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
      last sysfs file: /sys/devices/platform/w83627hf.656/in8_input
      ...
      
      This patch fixes this issue, although maybe not in the best way possible :)
