bc37e28303 sysfs: make sysfs_init_inode() static
With sysfs_fill_super() converted to use sysfs_get_inode(), there is
no user of sysfs_init_inode() outside of fs/sysfs/inode.c.  Make it
static.

e080e436f6 sysfs: fix sysfs root inode nlink accounting
While making sysfs indoes hashed, sysfs root inode was left out.  Now
that nlink accounting depends on the inode being on the hash, sysfs
root inode nlink isn't adjusted properly.

Put sysfs root inode on the inode hash by allocating it using
sysfs_get_inode() like other sysfs inodes.  While at it, massage
comments a bit.

a6bb340da3 debugfs: remove rmdir() non-empty complaint
Hi,

This patch kills the pointless debugfs rmdir() printk() when called on a
non-empty directory. blktrace will sometimes have to call it a few times
when forcefully ending a trace, which polutes the log with pointless
warnings.

Rationale:

- It's more code to work-around this "problem" in the debugfs users, and
  you would have to add code to check for empty directories to do so (or
  assume that debugfs is using simple_ helpers, but that would be a
  layering violation).

- Other rmdir() implementations don't complain about something this
  silly.

f9e29228e6 eHEA: Fix bonding support
The driver didn't allow an interface's MAC address to be modified if the
respective interface wasn't setup - a failing Hcall was the result. Thus
bonding wasn't usable. The fix moves the failing Hcall which was registering
a MAC address for the reception of BC packets in firmware from the port up
and down functions to the port resources setup functions. Additionally the
missing update of the last_rx member of the netdev structure was added.

7132ab7f6e Fix RGMII-ID handling in gianfar
The TSEC/eTSEC can detect the interface to the PHY automatically,
but it isn't able to detect whether the RGMII connection needs internal
delay.  So we need to detect that change in the device tree, propagate
it to the platform data, and then check it if we're in RGMII.  This fixes
a bug on the 8641D HPCN board where the Vitesse PHY doesn't use the delay
for RGMII.

1d5e83aac5 Fix Vitesse 824x PHY interrupt acking
The Vitesse 824x PHY doesn't allow an interrupt to be cleared if
the mask bit for that interrupt isn't set.  This means that the PHY
Lib's order of handling interrupts (disable, then clear) breaks on this
PHY.  However, clearing then disabling the interrupt opens up the code
for a silly race condition.  So rather than change the PHY Lib, we change
the Vitesse driver so it always clears interrupts before disabling them.
Further, the ack function only clears the interrupt if interrupts are
enabled.

9ee0be05dc ISDN HiSax: uninitialized return in hisax_cs_setup
Coverity (1792) spotted a possibly uninitialized return value in case of
kmalloc() failure:

1116 static int hisax_cs_setup(int cardnr, struct IsdnCard *card,
1117                           struct IsdnCardState *cs)
1119         int ret;
1120
1121         if (!(cs->rcvbuf = kmalloc(MAX_DFRAME_LEN_L1, GFP_ATOMIC))) {
1122                 printk(KERN_WARNING "HiSax: No memory for isac rcvbuf\n");
1123                 ll_unload(cs);
1124                 goto outf_cs;
...
1165 outf_cs:
1166         kfree(cs);
1167         card->cs = NULL;
1168         return ret;

The straightforward solution would be to just add the missing
initialization but hardcoding the return value in the out_cs branch
(only taken on failure) seems to work just as well and it allows killing
a couple of other lines too.

43509d1fec IB/mthca: Simplify use of size0 in work request posting
Current code sets size0 to 0 at the start of work request posting
functions and then handles size0 == 0 specially within the loop over
work requests.  Change this so size0 is set along with f0 the first
time through the loop (when nreq == 0).  This makes the code easier to
understand by making it clearer that f0 and size0 are always
initialized if nreq != 0 without having to know that size0 == 0
implies nreq == 0.

Also annotate size0 with uninitialized_var() so that this doesn't
introduce a new compiler warning.

9e58e1855c [AVR32] CPU frequency scaling for AT32AP
This patch enables CPU frequency scaling for AT32AP devices. This will
enable the CPU to scale between the speed of the high speed bus and
the master clock and thus save some power.

The patch also adds a parent to cpu_clk and a cpu_clk_set_rate to
enable changing the CPU clock divider in a sane way.

The driver does not check if the given rate is 0, thus resulting in a
div by 0.  I think this check should be go into the clk_set_rate
framework, and not here.

Tested on AT32AP7000/ATSTK1000.

Use a more conventional implementation for unaligned access, and include
an AT32AP-specific optimization:  the CPU will handle unaligned words.

The result is always faster and smaller for 8, 16, and 32 bit values.
For 64 bit quantities, it's presumably larger.

8c027ae2dc [x86 setup] Save/restore DS around invocations of INT 10h
There exists at least one card, Trident TVGA8900CL (BIOS dated 1992/9/8)
which clobbers DS when "scrolling in an SVGA text mode of more than
800x600 pixels."  Although we are extremely unlikely to run into that
situation, it is cheap insurance to save and restore DS, and it only adds
a grand total of 50 bytes to the total output.

7ad37df02c [x86 setup] VGA: Clear the Protect bit before setting the vertical height
If the user has asked for the vertical height registers to be recomputed
by setting bit 15 in the video mode number, we do so without clearing the
Protect bit in the Vertical Retrace Register before setting the Overflow
register.  As a result, if the VGA BIOS had set the Protect bit, the
write to the Overflow register will be dropped, and bits [9:8] of the
vertical height will be left unchanged.

This is a bug imported from the assembly version of this code.  It was
pointed out by Etienne Lorrain.
