Takashi Iwai 382225e62b ALSA: usb-audio: fix oops due to cleanup race when disconnecting
When a USB audio device is disconnected, snd_usb_audio_disconnect()
kills all audio URBs.  At the same time, the application, after being
notified of the disconnection, might close the device, in which case
ALSA calls the .hw_free callback, which should free the URBs too.

Commit de1b8b93a0 "[ALSA] Fix hang-up at disconnection of usb-audio"
prevented snd_usb_hw_free() from freeing the URBs to avoid a hang that
resulted from this race, but this introduced another race because the
URB callbacks could now be executed after snd_usb_hw_free() has
returned, and try to access already freed data.

Fix the first race by introducing a mutex to serialize the disconnect
callback and all PCM callbacks that manage URBs (hw_free and hw_params).

John Ogness ea68c00e26 OMAP2/3: clock: fix fint calculation for DPLL_FREQSEL
In OMAP35X TRM Rev 2010-05 Figure 7-18 "DPLL With EMI Reduction
Feature", it is shown that the internal frequency is calculated by
CLK_IN/(N+1). However, the value passed to _dpll_test_fint() is
already "N+1" since Linux is using the values to divide by. In the
technical reference manual, "N" is referring to the divider's register
value (0-127).

During power management testing, it was observed that programming the
wrong jitter correction value can cause the system to become unstable
and eventually crash.

Richard woodruff cb527ede1b i2c-omap: Double clear of ARDY status in IRQ handler
This errata occurs when the ARDY interrupt generation is enabled.
At the begining of every new transaction the ARDY interrupt is cleared.

On continuous i2c transactions where after clearing the ARDY bit from
I2C_STAT register (clearing the interrupt), the IRQ line is reasserted and the
I2C_STAT[ARDY] bit set again on 1. In fact, the ARDY status bit is not cleared
at the write access to I2C_STAT[ARDY] and only the IRQ line is deasserted and
then reasserted. This is not captured in the usual errata documents.

The workaround is to have a double clear of ARDY status in irq handler.

Kevin Hilman adf6e07922 i2c-omap: fix static suspend vs. runtime suspend
When runtime PM is enabled, each OMAP i2c device is suspended after
each i2c xfer.  However, there are two cases when the static suspend
methods must be used to ensure the devices are suspended:

1) runtime PM is disabled, either at compile time or dynamically
    via /sys/devices/.../power/control.
2) an i2c client driver uses i2c during it's suspend callback, thus
   leaving the i2c driver active (NOTE: runtime suspend transitions are
   disabled during system suspend, so i2c activity during system
   suspend will runtime resume the device, but not runtime (re)suspend it.)

Since the actual work to suspend the device is handled by the
subsytem, call the bus methods to take care of it.

NOTE: This takes care of a known suspend problem on OMAP3 where the
TWL RTC driver does i2c xfers during its suspend path leaving the i2c
driver in an active state (since runtime suspend transistions are
disabled.)

Lukas Czerner be715140b5 xfs: check if device support discard in xfs_ioc_trim()
Right now we, are relying on the fact that when we attempt to
actually do the discard, blkdev_issue_discar() returns -EOPNOTSUPP
and the user is informed that the device does not support discard.

However, in the case where the we do not hit any suitable free
extent to trim in FITRIM code, it will finish without any error.
This is very confusing, because it seems that FITRIM was successful
even though the device does not actually supports discard.

Solution: Check for the discard support before attempt to search for
free extents.

Linus Lüssing fe29ec41aa bridge: Use IPv6 link-local address for multicast listener queries
Currently the bridge multicast snooping feature periodically issues
IPv6 general multicast listener queries to sense the absence of a
listener.

For this, it uses :: as its source address - however RFC 2710 requires:
"To be valid, the Query message MUST come from a link-local IPv6 Source
Address". Current Linux kernel versions seem to follow this requirement
and ignore our bogus MLD queries.

With this commit a link local address from the bridge interface is being
used to issue the MLD query, resulting in other Linux devices which are
multicast listeners in the network to respond with a MLD response (which
was not the case before).

Linus Lüssing 36cff5a10c bridge: Fix MLD queries' ethernet source address
Map the IPv6 header's destination multicast address to an ethernet
source address instead of the MLD queries multicast address.

For instance for a general MLD query (multicast address in the MLD query
set to ::), this would wrongly be mapped to 33:33:00:00:00:00, although
an MLD queries destination MAC should always be 33:33:00:00:00:01 which
matches the IPv6 header's multicast destination ff02::1.

Linus Lüssing e4de9f9e83 bridge: Allow mcast snooping for transient link local addresses too
Currently the multicast bridge snooping support is not active for
link local multicast. I assume this has been done to leave
important multicast data untouched, like IPv6 Neighborhood Discovery.

In larger, bridged, local networks it could however be desirable to
optimize for instance local multicast audio/video streaming too.

With the transient flag in IPv6 multicast addresses we have an easy
way to optimize such multimedia traffic without tempering with the
high priority multicast data from well-known addresses.

This patch alters the multicast bridge snooping for IPv6, to take
effect for transient multicast addresses instead of non-link-local
addresses.

Indan Zupancic 951f3512db drm/i915: Do not handle backlight combination mode specially
The current code does not follow Intel documentation: It misses some things
and does other, undocumented things. This causes wrong backlight values in
certain conditions. Instead of adding tricky code handling badly documented
and rare corner cases, don't handle combination mode specially at all. This
way PCI_LBPC is never touched and weird things shouldn't happen.

If combination mode is enabled, then the only downside is that changing the
brightness has a greater granularity (the LBPC value), but LBPC is at most
254 and the maximum is in the thousands, so this is no real functional loss.

A potential problem with not handling combined mode is that a brightness of
max * PCI_LBPC is not bright enough. However, this is very unlikely because
from the documentation LBPC seems to act as a scaling factor and doesn't look
like it's supposed to be changed after boot. The value at boot should always
result in a bright enough screen.

IMPORTANT: However, although usually the above is true, it may not be when
people ran an older (2.6.37) kernel which messed up the LBPC register, and
they are unlucky enough to have a BIOS that saves and restores the LBPC value.
Then a good kernel may seem to not work: Max brightness isn't bright enough.
If this happens people should boot back into the old kernel, set brightness
to the maximum, and then reboot. After that everything should be fine.

Dmitry Torokhov 98562ad8cb module: explicitly align module_version_attribute structure
We force particular alignment when we generate attribute structures
when generation MODULE_VERSION() data and we need to make sure that
this alignment is followed when we iterate over these structures,
otherwise we may crash on platforms whose natural alignment is not
sizeof(void *), such as m68k.
