The reference counting of ACPI power resources is currently broken for a few reasons. First, instead of using a simple reference counter per power resource it uses a list of objects representing refereces to the given power resource from devices. This leads to the second breakage, because it prevents power resources from being referenced more than once by one device, which is necessary if the device is configured to signal wakeup. Namely, when putting the device into a low power state we first call acpi_enable_wakeup_device_power() that should reference count power resources needed for signaling wakeup and then we call acpi_power_transition() to power off the device. The latter call drops references to the device's power resources, possibly including the ones added by acpi_enable_wakeup_device_power(), so the device can't signal wakeup as a result. Apart from this, the locking in acpi_power_on() and acpi_power_off_device() doesn't prevent all possible races from happening, which may be problematic for runtime PM and asynchronous suspend and resume. Fix the problem by using a counter for power resources reference counting and putting the evaluation of ACPI _ON and _OFF methods under the power resource mutex.

If the host is slow in reading data or doesn't read data at all, blocking write calls not only blocked the program that called write() but the entire guest itself. To overcome this, let's not block till the host signals it has given back the virtio ring element we passed it. Instead, send the buffer to the host and return to userspace. This operation then becomes similar to how non-blocking writes work, so let's use the existing code for this path as well. This code change also ensures blocking write calls do get blocked if there's not enough room in the virtio ring as well as they don't return -EAGAIN to userspace.

When running make clean, Kbuild doesn't process the .config file, so nothing generates a platform-y variable. We can get it to descend into the platform directories by setting $(obj-). The dec Platform file was unconditionally setting platform-, obliterating its previous contents and preventing some directories from being cleaned. This is change to an append operation '+=' to allow cavium-octeon to be cleaned.

This patch reverts the driver to enabling/disabling the NFC interrupt mask rather than enabling/disabling the system interrupt. This cleans up the driver so that it doesn't rely on interrupts being disabled within the interrupt handler. For i.MX21 we keep the current behaviour, that is calling enable_irq/disable_irq_nosync to enable/disable interrupts. This patch is based on earlier work by John Ogness.

The i2c_imx_trx_complete() function is using wait_event_interruptible_timeout() to wait for the I2C controller to signal that it has completed an I2C bus operation. If the process that causes the I2C operation receives a signal, the wait will be interrupted, returning an error. It is better to let the I2C operation finished before handling the signal (i.e. returning into userspace). It is safe to use wait_event_timeout() instead, because the timeout will allow the process to exit if the I2C bus hangs. It's also better to allow the I2C operation to finish, because unacknowledged I2C operations can cause the I2C bus to hang.

Revert commit 54672386 "firewire: ohci: fix up configuration of TI chips". It caused massive slow-down and data corruption with a TSB82AA2 based StarTech EC1394B2 ExpressCard and FireWire 800 harddisks. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/657081 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.firewire.user/4013 The fact that some card EEPROMs do not program these enhancements may be related to TSB81BA3 phy chip errata, if not to bugs of TSB82AA2 itself. We could re-add these configuration steps, but only conditional on a whitelist of cards on which these enhancements bring a proven positive effect.

When a driver module is unloaded and the last still open file is a raw MIDI device, the card and its devices will be actually freed in the snd_card_file_remove() call when that file is closed. Afterwards, rmidi and rmidi->card point into freed memory, so the module pointer is likely to be garbage. (This was introduced by commit 9a1b64ca.)
