The masks for the st and osst tape drivers in MAINTAINERS are too broad and include unrelated files. Make the file list accurate so that maintainers of these drivers aren't bothered with unrelated work.

There have never been any real users of MEMSET operations since they have been introduced in January 2007 by commit 7405f74b ("dmaengine: refactor dmaengine around dma_async_tx_descriptor"). Therefore remove support for them for now, it can be always brought back when needed.

dmi_match() considers a substring match to be a successful match. This is not always sufficient to distinguish between DMI data for different systems. Add support for exact string matching using strcmp() in addition to the substring matching using strstr(). The specific use case in the i915 driver is to allow us to use an exact match for D510MO, without also incorrectly matching D510MOV: { .ident = "Intel D510MO", .matches = { DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "Intel"), DMI_EXACT_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "D510MO"), }, } Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Cc: <annndddrr@gmail.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Cornel Panceac <cpanceac@gmail.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Fix various weird constructions of strncpy(dst, src, strlen(src)). Length limits should be about the space available in the destination, not repurposed as a method to either always include or always exclude a trailing NULL byte. Either the NULL should always be copied (using strlcpy), or it should not be copied (using something like memcpy). Readable code should not depend on the weird behavior of strncpy when it hits the length limit. Better to avoid the anti-pattern entirely.

Now for insert_vmalloc_vm, it only calls the two functions: - setup_vmalloc_vm: fill vm_struct and vmap_area instances - clear_vm_unlist: clear VM_UNLIST bit in vm_struct->flags So in __get_vm_area_node(), if VM_UNLIST bit unset in flags, that is the else branch here, we don't need to clear VM_UNLIST bit for vm->flags since this bit is obviously not set. That is to say, we could only call setup_vmalloc_vm instead of insert_vmalloc_vm here. And then we could even remove the if test here.

Instead of leaving a hidden trap for the next person who comes along and wants to add something to mem_section, add a big fat warning about it needing to be a power-of-2, and insert a BUILD_BUG_ON() in sparse_init() to catch mistakes. Right now non-power-of-2 mem_sections cause a number of WARNs at boot (which don't clearly point to the size of mem_section as an issue), but the system limps on (temporarily, at least). This is based upon Dave Hansen's earlier RFC where he ran into the same issue: "sparsemem: fix boot when SECTIONS_PER_ROOT is not power-of-2" http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1205.2/03077.htmlSigned-off-by: Cody P Schafer <cody@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiang Liu <liuj97@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
