      Manual backmerge of -rc7 to resolve a silent conflict leading to
      compile failure in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_hdmi.c.
      
      This is due to the bugfix in -rc7:
      
      commit b98b6016
      Author: Wang Xingchao <xingchao.wang@intel.com>

          drm/i915: HDMI - Clear Audio Enable bit for Hot Plug
      
      Since this code moved around a lot in -next git put that snippet at
      the wrong spot. I've tried to fix this by making the conflict explicit
      by merging a version for next with:
      
      commit 3cce574f
      Author: Wang Xingchao <xingchao.wang@intel.com>
      Date:   Thu Sep 13 11:19:00 2012 +0800
      
          drm/i915: HDMI - Clear Audio Enable bit for Hot Plug unconditionally
      
      But that failed to solve the entire problem. To avoid pushing out
      further -nightly branch to our QA where this is broken, do the
      backmerge and manually add the stuff git adds to -next from the patch
      in -fixes.
      
      Note that this doesn't show up in git's merge diff (and hence is also
      not handled by git rerere), which adds to the reasons why I'd like to
      fix this with a verbose backmerge. The git merge diff only shows a
      bunch of trivial conflicts of the "code changed in lines next to each
      another" kind.

      Paulo Zanoni authored
      This should never happen, but the silent "return" makes me wonder
      every time I try to debug InfoFrame bugs, so promote this to BUG() to
      make sure people will complain if we ever break this.

      edac_mc: edac_mc_free() cannot assume mem_ctl_info is registered in sysfs. · faa2ad09
      Shaun Ruffell authored
      Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in edac_unregister_sysfs() on
      system boot introduced in 3.6-rc1.
      
      Since commit 7a623c03 ("edac: rewrite the sysfs code to use struct
      device") edac_mc_alloc() no longer initializes embedded kobjects in
      struct mem_ctl_info.  Therefore edac_mc_free() can no longer simply
      decrement a kobject reference count to free the allocated memory unless
      the memory controller driver module had also called edac_mc_add_mc().
      
      Now edac_mc_free() will check if the newly embedded struct device has
      been registered with sysfs before using either the standard device
      release functions or freeing the data structures itself with logic
      pulled out of the error path of edac_mc_alloc().
      
      The BUG this patch resolves for me:
      
        BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at   (null)

      edac_mc: fix messy kfree calls in the error path · ef6e7816

         423                         csr = mci->csrows[chn];
         424                         if (csr) {
       > 425                                 for (chn = 0; chn < tot_channels; chn++)

         427                                  kfree(csr);

         431                  kfree(mci->csrows);
         432          }
      
      and that code block seem to mess things up in several ways (double free, memory
      leak, out-of-bound reads etc.):
      
      L422: The iterator "chn" and bound "tot_channels" are totally wrong. Should be
            "row" and "tot_csrows" respectively. Which means either memory leak, or
            out-of-bound reads (which if does not trigger an immediate page fault
            error, will further lead to kfree() on random addresses).
      
      L425: The inner loop is reusing the same iterator "chn" as the outer loop,
            which could lead to premature end of the outer loop, and hence memory leak.
      
      L429: The array index 'i' in mci->csrows[i] is a temporary value used in
            previous loops, and won't change at all in the current loop. Which
            means either out-of-bound read and possibly kfree(random number), or the
            same mci->csrows[i] get freed once and again, and possibly double free
            for the kfree(csr) in L427.
      
      L426/L427: a kfree(csr->channels) is needed in between to avoid leaking the memory.
      
      The buggy code was introduced by commit de3910eb ("edac: change the mem
      allocation scheme to make Documentation/kobject.txt happy") in the 3.6-rc1
      merge window. Fix it by freeing up resources in this order:
      
        free csrows[i]->channels[j]
        free csrows[i]->channels
        free csrows[i]
        free csrows

      The quirk introduced with commit
      00250ec9 (hwmon: fam15h_power: fix
      bogus values with current BIOSes) is not only required during driver
      load but also when system resumes from suspend. The BIOS might set the
      previously recommended (but unsuitable) initilization value for the
      running average range register during resume.

      hwmon: (coretemp) Use get_online_cpus to avoid races involving CPU hotplug · 641f1456
      Silas Boyd-Wickizer authored
      coretemp_init loops with for_each_online_cpu, adding platform_devices
      and sysfs interfaces, then calls register_hotcpu_notifier.  There is a
      race if a CPU is offlined or onlined after the loop, but before
      register_hotcpu_notifier.  The race might result in the absence of a
      platform_device+sysfs interface for an online CPU, or the presence of
      a platform_device+sysfs interface for an offline CPU.  A similar race
      occurs during coretemp_exit, after the module calls
      unregister_hotcpu_notifier, but before it unregisters all devices, a
      CPU might offline and a device for an offline CPU will exist for a
      short while.
      
      This fix surrounds for_each_online_cpu and register_hotcpu_notifier
      with get_online_cpus+put_online_cpus; and surrounds
      unregister_hotcpu_notifier and device unregistering with
      get_online_cpus+put_online_cpus.
      
      Build tested.
