Running AIO is pinning inode in memory using file reference. Once AIO is completed using aio_complete(), file reference is put and inode can be freed from memory. So we have to be sure that calling aio_complete() is the last thing we do with the inode.

Allocating a file structure in function get_empty_filp() might fail because of several reasons: - not enough memory for file structures - operation is not allowed - user is over its limit Currently the function returns NULL in all cases and we loose the exact reason of the error. All callers of get_empty_filp() assume that the function can fail with ENFILE only. Return error through pointer. Change all callers to preserve this error code. [AV: cleaned up a bit, carved the get_empty_filp() part out into a separate commit (things remaining here deal with alloc_file()), removed pipe(2) behaviour change] Signed-off-by: Anatol Pomozov <anatol.pomozov@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

The ia64 function "thread_matches()" has no users since commit e868a55c ("[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()"). Remove it. This allows us to make ptrace_check_attach() static to kernel/ptrace.c, which is good since we'll need to change the semantics of it and fix up all the callers.

The tty is NULL when the port is hanging up. chase_port() needs to check for this. This patch is intended for stable series. The behavior was observed and tested in Linux 3.2 and 3.7.1.

Add support for the UART device present in Broadcom TruManage capable NetXtreme chips (ie: 5761m 5762, and 5725). This implementation has a hidden transmit FIFO, so running in single-byte interrupt mode results in too many interrupts. The UART_CAP_HFIFO capability was added to track this. It continues to reload the THR as long as the THRE and TSRE bits are set in the LSR up to a specified limit (1024 is used here).

Commit bbb63c51 (drivers:tty:fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling) changed the default return value from tty ioctl to be ENOTTY and not EINVAL. This is appropriate. But in case of TIOCGPTN for the old BSD ptys glibc started failing because it expects EINVAL to be returned. Only then it continues to obtain the pts name the other way around. So fix this case by explicit return of EINVAL in this case.

vt6656 has several headers that use the #pragma pack(1) directive to enable structure packing, but never disable it. The layout of structures defined in other headers can then depend on which order the various headers are included in, breaking the One Definition Rule. In practice this resulted in crashes on x86_64 until the order of header inclusion was changed for some files in commit 11d404cb ('staging: vt6656: fix headers and add cfg80211.'). But we need a proper fix that won't be affected by future changes to the order of inclusion. This removes the #pragma pack(1) directives and adds __packed to the structure definitions for which packing appears to have been intended.
