Wifi rfkill state changes can race with pci hotplug cleanup. A simple
fix is to refresh the hotplug state just before deregistering the pci
hotplug slot.
There is also potential for a hotplug notification to fire too early
during setup, while the structures it uses are still being initialised.
(This could only happen if the BIOS performs hotplug itself; a bug
triggered by removing the battery while hibernated). Avoid this by
registering the notifier later. The same refresh mechanism is used
to handle rfkill state changes which can now race with registration.

Commit d0265f0 "eeepc-laptop: fix hot-unplug on resume" used a workqueue
to protect pci hotplug against multiple simultaneous calls during
resume. It seems to work, but a mutex would be more appropriate.
This is in preparation to fix the potential pci hotplug race on unload.

The whole point of registering as a PCI hotplug driver was to prevent
conflict with pciehp. At the moment it happens to work because
eeepc-laptop is loaded first, but it doesn't work the other way round.
If pciehp is loaded first then we fail to claim the slot - we need to
respect this and not handle hotplug events.

As soon as the framebuffer is registered, our methods may be called by the
kernel. This leads to a crash as xenfb_refresh() gets called before we have
the irq.

When setting the same GPIO number, multiple IRQ shared requests will be
done without freing the previous request. It will also try to free a
failed request or an already freed IRQ if 0 was written to the gpio file.
All these oops and leaks were fixed with the following solution: keep the
previous allocated GPIO (if any) still allocated in case the new request
fails. The alternative solution would desallocate the previous allocated
GPIO and set gpio as 0.

If the BIOS reports an invalid throttling state (which seems to be
fairly common after system boot), a reset is done to state T0.
Because of a check in acpi_processor_get_throttling_ptc(), the reset
never actually gets executed, which results in the error reoccurring
on every access of for example /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling.
Add a 'force' option to acpi_processor_set_throttling() to ensure
the reset really takes effect.

months now in bugzilla, but have not been picked up, despite various

Google shows that numerous people are hitting this issue. The issue is in
itself relatively minor, but the bug in the code is clear.

Summary:
Kernel panic arise when stack protection is enabled, since strncat will
add a null terminating byte '\0'; So in functions
like this one (wmi_query_block):
char wc[4]="WC";
....
strncat(method, block->object_id, 2);
...
the length of wc should be n+1 (wc[5]) or stack protection
fault will arise. This is not noticeable when stack protection is
disabled,but , isn't good either.

The return value of the get_temp function is not checked when doing a
thermal zone update. This may lead to a critical shutdown if get_temp
fails and the content of the temp variable is incorrectly set higher than
the critical trip point.
This has been observed on a system with incorrect ACPI implementation
where the corresponding methods were not serialized and therefore
sometimes triggered ACPI errors (AE_ALREADY_EXISTS). The following
critical shutdowns indicated a temperature of 2097 C, which was obviously
wrong.
The patch adds a return value check that jumps over all trip point
evaluations printing a warning if get_temp fails. The trip points are
evaluated again on the next polling interval with successful get_temp
execution.

clockevent: Prevent dead lock on clockevents_lock
timers: Drop write permission on /proc/timer_list
When I rewrote tty ldisc code to use proper reference counts (commits
65b770468e and cbe9352fa0) in order to avoid a race with hangup, the
test-program that Eric Biederman used to trigger the original problem
seems to have exposed another long-standing bug: the hangup code did the
'tty_ldisc_halt()' to stop any buffer flushing activity, but unlike the
other call sites it never actually flushed any pending work.
As a result, if you get just the right timing, the pending work may be
just about to execute (ie the timer has already triggered and thus
cancel_delayed_work() was a no-op), when we then re-initialize the ldisc
from under it.
That, in turn, results in various random problems, usually seen as a
NULL pointer dereference in run_timer_softirq() or a BUG() in
worker_thread (but it can be almost anything).
Fix it by adding the required 'flush_scheduled_work()' after doing the
tty_ldisc_halt() (this also requires us to move the ldisc halt to before
taking the ldisc mutex in order to avoid a deadlock with the workqueue
executing do_tty_hangup, which requires the mutex).
The locking should be cleaned up one day (the requirement to do this
outside the ldisc_mutex is very annoying, and weakens the lock), but
that's a larger and separate undertaking.

The NETPOLL API requires that interrupts remain disabled in
netpoll_send_skb(). The use of "A functions set" in the NETPOLL API
callbacks causes the interrupts to get enabled and can lead to kernel
instability.
The solution is to use "B functions set" to prevent the irqs from
getting enabled while in netpoll_send_skb().
A functions set:
local_irq_disable()/local_irq_enable()
spin_lock_irq()/spin_unlock_irq()
spin_trylock_irq()/spin_unlock_irq()
B functions set:

E100 places it's RX packet descriptors inside skb->data and uses them
with bidirectional streaming DMA mapping. Data in descriptors is
accessed simultaneously by the chip (writing status and size when
a packet is received) and CPU (reading to check if the packet was
received). This isn't a valid usage of PCI DMA API, which requires use
of the coherent (consistent) memory for such purpose. Unfortunately e100
chips working in "simplified" RX mode have to store received data
directly after the descriptor. Fixing the driver to conform to the API
would require using unsupported "flexible" RX mode or receiving data
into a coherent memory and using CPU to copy it to network buffers.
This patch, while not yet making the driver conform to the PCI DMA API,
allows it to work correctly on X86 with swiotlb (while not breaking
other architectures).
