There you go. Yes, it is a genuine problem, if the device's eeprom is screwed really up.

In commit f337b9c5 ("epoll: drop
unnecessary test") Thomas found that there is an unnecessary (always
true) test in ep_send_events().  The callback never inserts into
->rdllink while the send loop is performed, and also does the
~EP_PRIVATE_BITS test.  Given we're holding the mutex during this time,
the conditions tested inside the loop are always true.

HOWEVER.

The test "!ep_is_linked(&epi->rdllink)" wasn't there because we insert
into ->rdllink, but because the send-events loop might terminate before
the whole list is scanned (-EFAULT).

In such cases, when the loop terminates early, and when a (leftover)
file received an event while we're performing the lockless loop, we need
such test to avoid to double insert the epoll items.  The list_splice()
done a few steps below, will correctly re-insert the ones that were left
on "txlist".

This should fix the kenrel.org bugzilla entry 11831.

Some userland apps seem to pass in a "0" for the seconds, and several
seconds worth of usecs to select().  The old kernels accepted this just
fine, so the new kernels must too.

However, due to the upscaling of the microseconds to nanoseconds we had
some cases where we got math overflow, and depending on the GCC version
(due to inlining decisions) that actually resulted in an -EINVAL return.

This patch fixes this by adding the excess microseconds to the seconds
field.

Also with thanks to Marcin Slusarz for spotting some implementation bugs
in the diagnostics patches.

we can't just go about deleting this in 2.6.29...

This reverts commit 7bf6bf48.

The code has both a short existence and an increasing track of failures
despite some work to amend it for -rc1.  It is not just a matter of
reading the eeprom: sometimes the eeprom is read correctly, then the mac
address is not written correctly back into the mac registers.

Some chipsets seem to work reliably but it is not clear at this point if
the code can simply be made to work on a per-chipset basis and post -rc1
is not the place where I want to experiment these things.

If you use KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG (even with empty file) you get broken
allmodconfig/allyesconfig; CONFIG_MODULES gets turned off, with obvious
massive fallout.

Breakage had been introduced when conf_set_all_new_symbols() got used
for allmodconfig et.al.

What happens is that sym_calc_value(modules_sym) done in
conf_read_simple() sets SYMBOL_VALID on both modules_sym and MODULES.
When we get to conf_set_all_new_symbols(), we set sym->def[S_DEF_USER]
on everything, but it has no effect on sym->curr for the symbols that
already have SYMBOL_VALID - these are stuck.

Solution: use sym_clear_all_valid() in there.  Note that it makes
reevaluation of modules_sym redundant - sym_clear_all_valid() will do
that itself.

Additionally, the DMI nag message added in 2.6.27 was missing a

The LM99 differs from the LM86, LM89 and LM90 in that it reports
remote temperatures (temp2) 16 degrees lower than they really are. So
far we have been cheating and handled this in userspace but it really
should be handled by the driver directly.
Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
Cc: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org>

There are several problems in the way the hysteresis value is handled
by the lm90 driver:

* In show_temphyst(), specific handling of the MAX6646 is missing, so
  the hysteresis is reported incorrectly if the critical temperature
  is over 127 degrees C.
* In set_temphyst(), the new hysteresis register value is written to
  the chip but data->temp_hyst isn't updated accordingly, so there is
  a short period of time (up to 2 seconds) where the old hystereris
  value will be returned while the new one is already active.
* In set_temphyst(), the critical temperature which is used as a base
  to compute the value of the hysteresis register lacks
  device-specific handling. As a result, the value of the hysteresis
  register might be incorrect for the ADT7461 and MAX6646 chips.

Fix these 3 bugs.

This reverts commit a802dd0e by moving
the call to init_workqueues() back where it belongs - after SMP has been
initialized.

It also moves stop_machine_init() - which needs workqueues - to a later
phase using a core_initcall() instead of early_initcall().  That should
satisfy all ordering requirements, and was apparently the reason why
init_workqueues() was moved to be too early.
