Ben Dooks 5fc404e47b [PATCH] fb: SM501 framebuffer driver
Driver for the Silicon Motion SM501 multifunction device framebuffer
subsystem.

This driver supports both the CRT and LCD panel heads, with some simple
acceleration for the cursor plotting and support for screen panning.  There
is no current support for bitblt/drawing engines, which should be added at
a later date.

This has been tested on a number of configurations, including PCI and
generic-bus, on PPC, ARM and SH4

David Brownell 5d4675a811 [PATCH] at91_rtc updates
Various bug fixes to the at91rm9200 RTC:

 - alarm:  setalarm() should pay attention to the "enabled" flag

 - init:  cleaner handling of the wakeup flags, which cpu init should
   really have set up.  Doing it here is just a workaround.

 - linkage:  since the at91_rtc driver probe() routine is in the init
   section, it should use platform_driver_probe() instead of leaving
   that pointer around in the driver struct after init section removal.

 - linkage:  likewise, remove() belongs in the exit section.

Among other things, the init and alarm changes ensure that this driver
handles the new sysfs "wakealarm" attribute properly.

David Brownell 32b49da46c [PATCH] rtc-sa1100 rtc_wklarm.enabled bugfixes
Some rtc-sa1100 bugfixes:

 - The read_alarm() method reports the rtc_wkalrm.enabled field properly.
   This patch is already in the handhelds.org tree.

 - And the set_alarm() method now handles that flag correctly, rather than
   making mismatched {en,dis}able_irq_wake() calls, which trigger runtime
   warning messages.  (Those calls are best made in suspend/resume methods.)

Note that while this SA1100/PXA RTC is fully capable of waking those ARM
processors from sleep states, that mechanism isn't properly supported on
either processor family, or in this driver.  Some boards have board-specific
PM glue providing partial workarounds for the weak generic PM support.

Miguel Ojeda 34173a4aad [PATCH] cfag12864b: fix crash when built-in and no parport present
The problem comes when ks0108/cfag12864b are built-in and no parallel port is
present.  ks0108_init() is called first, as it should be, but fails to load
(as there is no parallel port to use).

After that, cfag12864b_init() gets called, without knowing anything about
ks0108 failed, and calls ks0108_writecontrol(), which dereferences an
uninitialized pointer.

Init order is OK, I think.  The problem is how to stop cfag12864b_init() being
called if ks0108 failed to load.  modprobe does it for us, but, how when
built-in?

The link state will be left as it was when the driver started and can be

ioctl()s.

This is useful for systems where the device is connected without a PHY
or where either information or actions outside the scope of the driver

Richard Purdie 28ee086d5b backlight: Fix external uses of backlight internal semaphore
backlight_device->sem has a very specific use as documented in the
header file. The external users of this are using it for a different
reason, to serialise access to the update_status() method.

backlight users were supposed to implement their own internal
serialisation of update_status() if needed but everyone is doing
things differently and incorrectly. Therefore add a global mutex to
take care of serialisation for everyone, once and for all.

Locking for get_brightness remains optional since most users don't
need it.

Also update the lcd class in a similar way.

to use platform_*_drvdata instead of a global variable.

Dmitry Torokhov 90968e8ebc backlight: Remove excessive (un)likelys
Remove excessive numbers of (un)likely()s in the backlight core.

There are no hot paths in this code so rely on compiler to do
the right thing.

Richard Purdie dfcba20067 backlight: Remove unneeded owner field
Remove uneeded owner field from backlight_properties structure.

Nothing uses it and it is unlikely that it will ever be used. The
backlight class uses other means to ensure that nothing references
unloaded code.

Based on a patch from Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@insightbb.com>
