When changing the sample rate, the CMI8788's master clock output becomes
unstable for a short time. The AK4396 needs the master clock to do SPI
writes, so writing to an AK4396 control register directly after a sample
rate change will garble the value. In our case, this leads to the DACs
being misconfigured to I2S sample format, which results in a wrong
output level and horrible distortions on samples louder than -6 dB.
To fix this, we need to wait until the new master clock signal has
become stable before doing SPI writes.

This reverts commit 3e0e469fa216ec70c93b1593821b759d19ee2e6b.
The patch introduced a wrong detection of other intel Macs with
ALC88* codec because they share the same PCI SSID (but have different
codec subsystem-IDs). See http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/24/143

This fixes a regression that was indirectly caused by commit
1184dc2ffe2c8fb9afb766d870850f2c3165ef25 ("x86: modify Kconfig to allow
up to 4096 cpus").
Allowing 4k CPU's is not practical at this time, because we still have a
number of places that have several 'cpumask_t's on the stack, and a
4k-bit cpumask is 512 bytes of stack-space for each such variable. This
literally caused functions like 'smp_call_function_mask' to have a 2.5kB
stack frame, and several functions to have 2kB stackframes.
With an 8kB stack total, smashing the stack was simply much too likely.
At least bugzilla entry
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11342
was due to this.
The earlier commit to not inline load_module() into sys_init_module()
fixed the particular symptoms of this that Alan Brunelle saw in that
bugzilla entry, but the huge stack waste by cpumask_t's was the more
direct cause.
Some day we'll have allocation helpers that allocate large CPU masks
dynamically, but in the meantime we simply cannot allow cpumasks this
large.

PCI: shpchp: Rename duplicate slot name N as N-1, N-2, N-M...
PCI: pciehp: Rename duplicate slot name N as N-1, N-2, N-M...
This patch fixes 3 issues:
a) it removes the dependency on jiffies, because jiffies are incremented
by a single CPU, and the tick is not synchronized between CPUs. Therefore
relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work
as it can drift around.
So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window.
b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking):
delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw;
clock += delta;
Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear.
c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking.
the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas:

Many SoC audio codec drivers have improper freeing of memory in error
paths.
* codec is allocated in the platform device probe function, but is not
freed there in case of error. Instead it is freed in the i2c device
probe function's error path. However the success or failure of both
functions is not linked, so this could result in a double free (if
the platform device is successfully probed, the i2c device probing
fails and then the platform driver is unregistered.)
* codec->private_data is allocated in many platform device probe
functions but not freed in their error paths.
This patch hopefully solves all these problems.

Commit ef0ff95f136f0f2d035667af5d18b824609de320 (shpchp: fix slot name)
introduces the shpchp_slot_with_bus module parameter, which was intended
to help work around broken firmware that assigns the same name to multiple
slots.
Commit b3bd307c628af2f0a581c42d5d7e4bcdbbf64b6a (shpchp: add message about
shpchp_slot_with_bus option) tells the user to use the above parameter
in the event of a name collision.
This approach is sub-optimal because it requires too much work from
the user.
Instead, let's rename the slot on behalf of the user. If firmware
assigns the name N to multiple slots, then:
The first registered slot is assigned N
The second registered slot is assigned N-1
The third registered slot is assigned N-2
The Mth registered slot becomes N-M
In the event we overflow the slot->name parameter, we report an
error to the user.
This is a temporary fix until the entire PCI core can be reworked
such that individual drivers no longer have to manage their own
slot names.

David Witbrodt tracked down (and bisected) a hpet bootup hang on his
system to the following problem: a BIOS bug made the hpet device
visible as a generic PCI device. If e820 reserved entries happen to
be registered first in the resource tree [which v2.6.26 started doing],
then the PCI code will reallocate that device's BAR to some other
address - breaking timer IRQs and hanging the system.
( Normally hpet devices are hidden by the BIOS from the OS's PCI
discovery via chipset magic. Sometimes the hpet is not a PCI device
at all. )
Solve this fundamental fragility by making non-PCI platform drivers
insert resources into the resource tree even if it overlaps the e820
reserved entry, to keep the resource manager from updating the BAR.
Also do these checks for the ioapic and mmconfig addresses, and emit
a warning if this happens.

'load_module()' is a complex function that contains all the ELF section
logic, and inlining it is utterly insane. But gcc will do it, simply
because there is only one call-site. As a result, all the stack space
that is allocated for all the work to load the module will still be
active when we actually call the module init sequence, and the deep call
chain makes stack overflows happen.
And stack overflows are really hard to debug, because they not only
corrupt random pages below the stack, but also corrupt the thread_info
structure that is allocated under the stack.
In this case, Alan Brunelle reported some crazy oopses at bootup, after
loading the processor module that ends up doing complex ACPI stuff and
has quite a deep callchain. This should fix it, and is the sane thing
to do regardless.

During CPU hot-remove the sysfs directory created by
threshold_create_bank(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_amd_64.c, has to be removed before
its parent directory, created by mce_create_device(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_64.c . Moreover, when the CPU in
question is hotplugged again, obviously the latter has to be created
before the former. At present, the right ordering is not enforced,
because all of these operations are carried out by CPU hotplug
notifiers which are not appropriately ordered with respect to each
other. This leads to serious problems on systems with two or more
multicore AMD CPUs, among other things during suspend and hibernation.
Fix the problem by placing threshold bank CPU hotplug callbacks in
mce_cpu_callback(), so that they are invoked at the right places,
if defined. Additionally, use kobject_del() to remove the sysfs
directory associated with the kobject created by
kobject_create_and_add() in threshold_create_bank(), to prevent the
kernel from crashing during CPU hotplug operations on systems with
two or more multicore AMD CPUs.

This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is
necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an
interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected
route, and other as a kernel route.
When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message
causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is
added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with
the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it
already has the connected route.
The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol ==
RTPROT_BOOT. Was this a design decision or a bug? This fixes it. Same
patch applies to both net-2.6 and stable.

XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with
create=1. This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page
lock to prevent such a situation. This causes ext2 to explode for one
reason or another.
Serialise those calls for the moment. For common usages today, I suspect
get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks. In future as XIP
technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require
scalability, and rework the locking to suit.

When changing the sample rate, the CMI8788's master clock output becomes
unstable for a short time. The AK4396 needs the master clock to do SPI
writes, so writing to an AK4396 control register directly after a sample
rate change will garble the value. In our case, this leads to the DACs
being misconfigured to I2S sample format, which results in a wrong
output level and horrible distortions on samples louder than -6 dB.
To fix this, we need to wait until the new master clock signal has
become stable before doing SPI writes.

1184dc2ffe2c8fb9afb766d870850f2c3165ef25 ("x86: modify Kconfig to allow
up to 4096 cpus").
Allowing 4k CPU's is not practical at this time, because we still have a
number of places that have several 'cpumask_t's on the stack, and a
4k-bit cpumask is 512 bytes of stack-space for each such variable. This
literally caused functions like 'smp_call_function_mask' to have a 2.5kB
stack frame, and several functions to have 2kB stackframes.
With an 8kB stack total, smashing the stack was simply much too likely.
At least bugzilla entry
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11342
was due to this.
The earlier commit to not inline load_module() into sys_init_module()
fixed the particular symptoms of this that Alan Brunelle saw in that
bugzilla entry, but the huge stack waste by cpumask_t's was the more
direct cause.
Some day we'll have allocation helpers that allocate large CPU masks
dynamically, but in the meantime we simply cannot allow cpumasks this
large.

This patch fixes 3 issues:
a) it removes the dependency on jiffies, because jiffies are incremented
by a single CPU, and the tick is not synchronized between CPUs. Therefore
relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work
as it can drift around.
So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window.
b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking):
delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw;
clock += delta;
Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear.
c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking.
the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas:

Many SoC audio codec drivers have improper freeing of memory in error
paths.
* codec is allocated in the platform device probe function, but is not
freed there in case of error. Instead it is freed in the i2c device
probe function's error path. However the success or failure of both
functions is not linked, so this could result in a double free (if
the platform device is successfully probed, the i2c device probing
fails and then the platform driver is unregistered.)
* codec->private_data is allocated in many platform device probe
functions but not freed in their error paths.
This patch hopefully solves all these problems.

Commit b3bd307c628af2f0a581c42d5d7e4bcdbbf64b6a (shpchp: add message about

in the event of a name collision.
This approach is sub-optimal because it requires too much work from

Instead, let's rename the slot on behalf of the user. If firmware
assigns the name N to multiple slots, then:
The first registered slot is assigned N
The second registered slot is assigned N-1
The third registered slot is assigned N-2
The Mth registered slot becomes N-M
In the event we overflow the slot->name parameter, we report an
error to the user.
This is a temporary fix until the entire PCI core can be reworked
such that individual drivers no longer have to manage their own
slot names.

David Witbrodt tracked down (and bisected) a hpet bootup hang on his
system to the following problem: a BIOS bug made the hpet device
visible as a generic PCI device. If e820 reserved entries happen to
be registered first in the resource tree [which v2.6.26 started doing],
then the PCI code will reallocate that device's BAR to some other
address - breaking timer IRQs and hanging the system.
( Normally hpet devices are hidden by the BIOS from the OS's PCI
discovery via chipset magic. Sometimes the hpet is not a PCI device
at all. )
Solve this fundamental fragility by making non-PCI platform drivers
insert resources into the resource tree even if it overlaps the e820
reserved entry, to keep the resource manager from updating the BAR.
Also do these checks for the ioapic and mmconfig addresses, and emit
a warning if this happens.

The has Rx work check was wrong: when the FW was at the end of the page,
the driver was already at the beginning of the next page. Since the
check only validated that both driver and FW are pointing to the same
place, it concluded that there is still work to be done. This caused
some serious issues including long latency results on ping-pong test and
lockups while unloading the driver in that condition.

'load_module()' is a complex function that contains all the ELF section
logic, and inlining it is utterly insane. But gcc will do it, simply
because there is only one call-site. As a result, all the stack space
that is allocated for all the work to load the module will still be
active when we actually call the module init sequence, and the deep call
chain makes stack overflows happen.
And stack overflows are really hard to debug, because they not only
corrupt random pages below the stack, but also corrupt the thread_info
structure that is allocated under the stack.
In this case, Alan Brunelle reported some crazy oopses at bootup, after
loading the processor module that ends up doing complex ACPI stuff and
has quite a deep callchain. This should fix it, and is the sane thing
to do regardless.

During CPU hot-remove the sysfs directory created by
threshold_create_bank(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_amd_64.c, has to be removed before
its parent directory, created by mce_create_device(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_64.c . Moreover, when the CPU in
question is hotplugged again, obviously the latter has to be created
before the former. At present, the right ordering is not enforced,
because all of these operations are carried out by CPU hotplug
notifiers which are not appropriately ordered with respect to each
other. This leads to serious problems on systems with two or more
multicore AMD CPUs, among other things during suspend and hibernation.
Fix the problem by placing threshold bank CPU hotplug callbacks in
mce_cpu_callback(), so that they are invoked at the right places,
if defined. Additionally, use kobject_del() to remove the sysfs
directory associated with the kobject created by
kobject_create_and_add() in threshold_create_bank(), to prevent the
kernel from crashing during CPU hotplug operations on systems with
two or more multicore AMD CPUs.
This patch fixes bug #11337.

This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is
necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an
interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected
route, and other as a kernel route.
When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message
causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is
added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with
the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it
already has the connected route.
The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol ==
RTPROT_BOOT. Was this a design decision or a bug? This fixes it. Same
patch applies to both net-2.6 and stable.

XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with
create=1. This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page
lock to prevent such a situation. This causes ext2 to explode for one
reason or another.
Serialise those calls for the moment. For common usages today, I suspect
get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks. In future as XIP
technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require
scalability, and rework the locking to suit.
