Akinobu Mita 783aa8fa1f V4L/DVB (5678): Zr364xx: fix return values
This patch fixes several return value related problems in zr364xx.

- return -ENOMEM instead of -ENODEV on out of memory

- zr364xx checks video_register_device() error only when
  its return value is -1. But video_register_device() doesn't
  always return -1 on error.

- If usb_register() returns error, module_init() wrongly returns 1:
	retval = usb_register(&zr364xx_driver) < 0;
	...
	return retval;

  And it allows the module to be loaded. Because sys_init_module() doesn't
  see positive return value as error.

Trent Piepho b7754d74d2 V4L/DVB (5636): Integrate all users of the fmd1216 tuner with dvb-pll
Enhance the dvb-pll definition of the fmd1216 tuner by adding an init sequence
and a sleep sequence.

The init sequence sets the AGC control register to 0xa0, selecting the fast
time constant and 112 dBuV take-over point.  This the recommended value for
DVB-T operation.

The sleep sequence sets bit P4 (which is believed to turn the analog
demodulator on), turns off the tuning voltage, and sets the AGC control
register to 0x60 (external AGC voltage, the recommended value for analog
operation).

The existing dvb-pll users in the cx88 driver, listed below, will gain these
init and sleep sequences.

CX88_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1100    Hauppauge WinTV-HVR1100 DVB-T/Hybrid
CX88_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1100LP  Hauppauge WinTV-HVR1100 DVB-T/Hybrid (Low Profi
CX88_BOARD_WINFAST_DTV2000H     WinFast DTV2000 H
CX88_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR3000    Hauppauge WinTV-HVR3000 TriMode Analog/DVB-S/DV
CX88_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1300    Hauppauge WinTV-HVR1300 DVB-T/Hybrid MPEG Encod

This non-dvb-pll user in the cx88 driver should only gain the sleep sequence,
as it already had an equivalent init sequence.  The non-dvb-pll code for this
user is removed.

X88_BOARD_DNTV_LIVE_DVB_T_PRO   digitalnow DNTV Live! DVB-T Pro

In these saa7134 driver, these non-dvb-pll users are converted to use dvb-pll:

SAA7134_BOARD_MD7134                    Medion 7134
SAA7134_BOARD_ASUS_EUROPA2_HYBRID       Asus Europa2 OEM

The saa7134 functions philips_fmd1216_tuner_init(),
philips_fmd1216_tuner_sleep(), and philips_fmd1216_tuner_set_params() are
deleted and the dvb-pll versions are used.

This should result in equivalent sleep, init, and tuning sequences being sent
to the tuner.

For the cxusb driver, only one board is effected:

USB_PID_MEDION_MD95700          	Medion MD95700

This board used dvb_usb_tuner_init_i2c() and dvb_usb_tuner_set_params_i2c()
for init and tuning, respectively.  These functions are effectively the same
as the dvb-pll versions.  They call a tuner pass control function defined at
the dvb-usb level, but this does not matter, as this card does not have a
tuner pass control function (only the dib3000mb does).  This board will gain
the sleep sequence, while init and tuning should be unchanged.

If cx88 support is compiled into the kernel while vp3054 is left as a module,
the kernel will fail to link.  Adjust the existing "#if" code in cx88 so
that it won't consider vp3054 to be supported in this case.

It might make sense to move vp3054 selection into the "customisation" menu
instead of a cx88 sub-option (though this is a cx88 feature, there is no extra
chip involved).

It might also make sense to use dvb_attach() to load vp3054 support.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge dfdcdd42fd xen: disable all non-virtual drivers
A domU Xen environment has no non-virtual drivers, so make sure
they're all disabled at once.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 9ec2b804e0 xen: use iret directly when possible
Most of the time we can simply use the iret instruction to exit the
kernel, rather than having to use the iret hypercall - the only
exception is if we're returning into vm86 mode, or from delivering an
NMI (which we don't support yet).

When running native, iret has the behaviour of testing for a pending
interrupt atomically with re-enabling interrupts.  Unfortunately
there's no way to do this with Xen, so there's a window in which we
could get a recursive exception after enabling events but before
actually returning to userspace.

This causes a problem: if the nested interrupt causes one of the
task's TIF_WORK_MASK flags to be set, they will not be checked again
before returning to userspace.  This means that pending work may be
left pending indefinitely, until the process enters and leaves the
kernel again.  The net effect is that a pending signal or reschedule
event could be delayed for an unbounded amount of time.

To deal with this, the xen event upcall handler checks to see if the
EIP is within the critical section of the iret code, after events
are (potentially) enabled up to the iret itself.  If its within this
range, it calls the iret critical section fixup, which adjusts the
stack to deal with any unrestored registers, and then shifts the
stack frame up to replace the previous invocation.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 600b2fc242 xen: suppress abs symbol warnings for unused reloc pointers
arch/i386/xen/xen-asm.S defines some small pieces of code which are
used to implement a few paravirt_ops.  They're designed so they can be
used either in-place, or be inline patched into their callsites if
there's enough space.

Some of those operations need to make calls out (specifically, if you
re-enable events [interrupts], and there's a pending event at that
time).  These calls need the call instruction to be relocated if the
code is patched inline.  In this case xen_foo_reloc is a
section-relative symbol which points to xen_foo's required relocation.

Other operations have no need of a relocation, and so their
corresponding xen_bar_reloc is absolute 0.  These are the cases which
are triggering the warning.

This patch adds those symbols to the list of safe abs symbols.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 6487673b8a xen: Attempt to patch inline versions of common operations
This patchs adds the mechanism to allow us to patch inline versions of
common operations.

The implementations of the direct-access versions save_fl, restore_fl,
irq_enable and irq_disable are now in assembler, and the same code is
used for both out of line and inline uses.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 60223a326f xen: Place vcpu_info structure into per-cpu memory
An experimental patch for Xen allows guests to place their vcpu_info
structs anywhere.  We try to use this to place the vcpu_info into the
PDA, which allows direct access.

If this works, then switch to using direct access operations for
irq_enable, disable, save_fl and restore_fl.
