x86-32: Export kernel_stack_pointer() for modules

2012-12-06T02:40:17+00:00

commit cb57a2b4cff7edf2a4e32c0163200e9434807e0a upstream. Modules, in particular oprofile (and possibly other similar tools) need kernel_stack_pointer(), so export it using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL().

mmc: sdhci-s3c: fix the wrong number of max bus clocks

commit 5feb54a1ab91a237e247c013b8c4fb100ea347b1 upstream. We can use up to four bus-clocks; but on module remove, we didn't disable the fourth bus clock. Signed-off-by: Jaehoon Chung Signed-off-by: Kyungmin Park Signed-off-by: Chris Ball Cc: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Input: bcm5974 - set BUTTONPAD property

2012-12-03T20:59:16+00:00

commit 52965cc012f7a3cf35f06485ec275ebf3b3fddae upstream. Some bcm5974 trackpads have a physical button beneath the physical surface. This patch sets the property bit so user space applications can detect the trackpad type and act accordingly.

x86, mce, therm_throt: Don't report power limit and package level thermal throttle events in mcelog

2012-12-03T20:59:16+00:00

commit 29e9bf1841e4f9df13b4992a716fece7087dd237 upstream. Thermal throttle and power limit events are not defined as MCE errors in x86 architecture and should not generate MCE errors in mcelog. Current kernel generates fake software defined MCE errors for these events. This may confuse users because they may think the machine has real MCE errors while actually only thermal throttle or power limit events happen. To make it worse, buggy firmware on some platforms may falsely generate the events. Therefore, kernel reports MCE errors which users think as real hardware errors. Although the firmware bugs should be fixed, on the other hand, kernel should not report MCE errors either. So mcelog is not a good mechanism to report these events. To report the events, we count them in respective counters (core_power_limit_count, package_power_limit_count, core_throttle_count, and package_throttle_count) in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/thermal_throttle/. Users can check the counters for each event on each CPU. Please note that all CPU's on one package report duplicate counters. It's user application's responsibity to retrieve a package level counter for one package. This patch doesn't report package level power limit, core level power limit, and package level thermal throttle events in mcelog. When the events happen, only report them in respective counters in sysfs. Since core level thermal throttle has been legacy code in kernel for a while and users accepted it as MCE error in mcelog, core level thermal throttle is still reported in mcelog. In the mean time, the event is counted in a counter in sysfs as well.

acer-wmi: support for P key on TM8372

2012-12-03T20:59:15+00:00

commit 67e1d34cd54cbf33f093f1dd53e7bda1124eb972 upstream. BugLink: http://launchpad.net/bugs/865807 There is no entry for P key on TM8372, so when P key is pressed, only "acer_wmi: Unknown key number - 0x29" in dmesg.

watchdog: using u64 in get_sample_period()

2012-12-03T20:59:15+00:00

commit 8ffeb9b0e6369135bf03a073514f571ef10606b9 upstream. In get_sample_period(), unsigned long is not enough: watchdog_thresh * 2 * (NSEC_PER_SEC / 5) case1: watchdog_thresh is 10 by default, the sample value will be: 0xEE6B2800 case2: set watchdog_thresh is 20, the sample value will be: 0x1 DCD6 5000 In case2, we need use u64 to express the sample period. Otherwise, changing the threshold thru proc often can not be successful.

USB: mct_u232: fix broken close

2012-12-03T20:59:15+00:00

commit 5260e458f5eff269a43e4f1e9c47186c57b88ddb upstream. Make sure generic close is called at close. The driver relies on the generic write implementation but did not call generic close. Note that the call to kill the read urb is not redundant, as mct_u232 uses an interrupt urb from the second port as the read urb and that generic close therefore fails to kill it. Compile-only tested. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman [bwh: Backported to 3.2: adjust context] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings
