Florian Tobias Schandinat 2fed547c02 viafb: fix proc entry removal
viafb: fix proc entry removal

Trying to remove unregistered proc entries became painful and is
useless anyway. So remove the removal of an entry that was never
registered and duplicate the logic for one which is added
conditionally. Additionally move the removal above releasing fb_info
as we still need the information.
This prevents tainting the kernel by the procfs warn on and
avoiding access to already freed memory is probably also a good idea.

Florian Tobias Schandinat 162fc8c0c0 viafb: improve misc register handling
viafb: improve misc register handling

This patch improves the misc register handling by adding a modify
function for this to via_io.h and moving expanded definitions of the
relevant ports there. The code was changed to use those to improve
readability.

Jonathan Corbet c2b12cd496 viafb: Reserve framebuffer memory for the upcoming camera driver
The camera engine captures to framebuffer memory, so we need to set some
aside for that purpose.  There is no proper memory allocator for fbmem;
instead, accel.c just trims some space off the top.  Alas, without creating
that proper memory allocator, the only way to make this work is to hack it
into the same bit of code in accel.c.  The allocation must happen *after*
the others (some code, including user-space XV stuff, makes assumptions on
where the cursor space is), and before the rest of the framebuffer is set
up.

Florian Tobias Schandinat c389874805 viafb: package often used basic io functions
This patch puts redesigned versions of the basic io functions that
are used overall the driver in an extra header. It is prefixed with
via_ as no framebuffer dependend stuff is in there. They were inlined
as they are really simple which reduced the module size about 2.5%.
The parameter order of read and write was fixed as it really doesn't
make sense to change the order as they are parts of the same address
and not source and destination.
Wrapper which use the new functions were added to hw.h to replicate
the old interface and avoid changing all old code.

This patch moves data of interest into a new viafb_dev structure which

particular needs.

I've also made some small steps toward thinning out the global.h mess.

Harald Welte 277d32a36c viafb: rework the I2C support in the VIA framebuffer driver
This patch changes the way how the various I2C busses are used internally
inside the viafb driver:  Previosuly, only a single i2c_adapter was created,
even though two different hardware I2C busses are accessed: A structure member
in a global variable was modified to indicate the bus to be used.

Now, all existing hardware busses are registered with the i2c core, and the
viafb_i2c_{read,write}byte[s]() function take the adapter number as function
call parameter, rather than referring to the global structure member.

Jonathan Corbet 1317824376 viafb: complete support for VX800/VX855 accelerated framebuffer
This patch is a painful merge of change
a90bab567ece3e915d0ccd55ab00c9bb333fa8c0 (viafb: Add support for 2D
accelerated framebuffer on VX800/VX855) in the OLPC tree, originally by
Harald Welte.  Harald's changelog read:

	The VX800/VX820 and the VX855/VX875 chipsets have a different 2D
    	acceleration engine called "M1".  The M1 engine has some subtle
    	(and some not-so-subtle) differences to the previous engines, so
    	support for accelerated framebuffer on those chipsets was disabled
    	so far.

This merge tries to preserve Harald's changes in the framework of the
much-changed 2.6.34 viafb code.

Linus Torvalds de329820e9 ext3: fix broken handling of EXT3_STATE_NEW
In commit 9df93939b7 ("ext3: Use bitops to read/modify
EXT3_I(inode)->i_state") ext3 changed its internal 'i_state' variable to
use bitops for its state handling.  However, unline the same ext4
change, it didn't actually change the name of the field when it changed
the semantics of it.

As a result, an old use of 'i_state' remained in fs/ext3/ialloc.c that
initialized the field to EXT3_STATE_NEW.  And that does not work
_at_all_ when we're now working with individually named bits rather than
values that get masked.  So the code tried to mark the state to be new,
but in actual fact set the field to EXT3_STATE_JDATA.  Which makes no
sense at all, and screws up all the code that checks whether the inode
was newly allocated.

In particular, it made the xattr code unhappy, and caused various random
behavior, like apparently

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=577911

So fix the initialization, and rename the field to match ext4 so that we
don't have this happen again.

Neil Horman c0cd884af0 r8169: offical fix for CVE-2009-4537 (overlength frame DMAs)
Official patch to fix the r8169 frame length check error.

Based on this initial thread:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=126202972828626&w=1
This is the official patch to fix the frame length problems in the r8169
driver.  As noted in the previous thread, while this patch incurs a performance
hit on the driver, its possible to improve performance dynamically by updating
the mtu and rx_copybreak values at runtime to return performance to what it was
for those NICS which are unaffected by the ideosyncracy (if there are any).

Summary:

    A while back Eric submitted a patch for r8169 in which the proper
allocated frame size was written to RXMaxSize to prevent the NIC from dmaing too
much data.  This was done in commit fdd7b4c330.  A
long time prior to that however, Francois posted
126fa4b9ca, which expiclitly disabled the MaxSize
setting due to the fact that the hardware behaved in odd ways when overlong
frames were received on NIC's supported by this driver.  This was mentioned in a
security conference recently:
http://events.ccc.de/congress/2009/Fahrplan//events/3596.en.html

It seems that if we can't enable frame size filtering, then, as Eric correctly
noticed, we can find ourselves DMA-ing too much data to a buffer, causing
corruption.  As a result is seems that we are forced to allocate a frame which
is ready to handle a maximally sized receive.

This obviously has performance issues with it, so to mitigate that issue, this
patch does two things:

1) Raises the copybreak value to the frame allocation size, which should force
appropriately sized packets to get allocated on rx, rather than a full new 16k
buffer.

2) This patch only disables frame filtering initially (i.e., during the NIC
open), changing the MTU results in ring buffer allocation of a size in relation
to the new mtu (along with a warning indicating that this is dangerous).

Because of item (2), individuals who can't cope with the performance hit (or can
otherwise filter frames to prevent the bug), or who have hardware they are sure
is unaffected by this issue, can manually lower the copybreak and reset the mtu
such that performance is restored easily.

David S. Miller 9e8307ecaf sparc64: Properly truncate pt_regs framepointer in perf callback.
For 32-bit processes, we save the full 64-bits of the regs in pt_regs.

But unlike when the userspace actually does load and store
instructions, the top 32-bits don't get automatically truncated by the
cpu in kernel mode (because the kernel doesn't execute with PSTATE_AM
address masking enabled).

So we have to do it by hand.

Add missing newline to dev_warn() message string. This is more of an issue
with older kernels that don't automatically add a newline if it was missing

Joern Engel 6be7fa06eb [LogFS] Erase new journal segments
If the device contains on old logfs image and the journal is moved to
segment that have never been used by the current logfs and not all
journal segments are erased before the next mount, the old content can
confuse mount code.  To prevent this, always erase the new journal
segments.

Ian Campbell eed63519e3 x86: Do not free zero sized per cpu areas
This avoids an infinite loop in free_early_partial().

Add a warning to free_early_partial() to catch future problems.

-v5: put back start > end back into WARN_ONCE()
-v6: use one line for warning, suggested by Linus
-v7: more tests
-v8: remove the function name as suggested by Johannes
     WARN_ONCE() will print out that function name.
