usb-serial: don't release unregistered minors

2008-08-20T18:05:02+00:00

commit 0282b7f2a874e72c18fcd5a112ccf67f71ba7f5c upstream This patch (as1121) fixes a bug in the USB serial core. When a device is unregistered, the core will give back its minors -- even if the device hasn't been assigned any! The patch reserves the highest minor value (255) to mean that no minor was assigned. It also removes some dead code and does a small style fixup. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

cpufreq acpi: only call _PPC after cpufreq ACPI init funcs got called already

2008-08-01T19:43:12+00:00

commit a1531acd43310a7e4571d52e8846640667f4c74b upstream Ingo Molnar provided a fix to not call _PPC at processor driver initialization time in "[PATCH] ACPI: fix cpufreq regression" (git commit e4233dec749a3519069d9390561b5636a75c7579) But it can still happen that _PPC is called at processor driver initialization time. This patch should make sure that this is not possible anymore.

xfrm: Add a XFRM_STATE_AF_UNSPEC flag to xfrm_usersa_info

2008-07-10T23:55:37+00:00

Add a XFRM_STATE_AF_UNSPEC flag to handle the AF_UNSPEC behavior for the selector family. Userspace applications can set this flag to leave the selector family of the xfrm_state unspecified. This can be used to to handle inter family tunnels if the selector is not set from userspace. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert Acked-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ide: add __ide_default_irq() inline helper

2008-07-08T17:27:22+00:00

Add __ide_default_irq() inline helper and use it instead of ide_default_irq() in ide-probe.c and ns87415.c (all host drivers except IDE PCI ones always setup hwif->irq so it is enough to check only for I/O bases 0x1f0 and 0x170). This fixes post-2.6.25 regression since ide_default_irq() define could shadow ide_default_irq() inline. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz

Move _RET_IP_ and _THIS_IP_ to include/linux/kernel.h

2008-07-05T20:10:50+00:00

These two macros are useful beyond lock debugging. Moved definitions from include/linux/debug_locks.h to include/linux/kernel.h, so code that needs them does not have to include the former, which would have been a less intuitive choice of a header.

cpumask: introduce new APIs

2008-07-04T17:40:09+00:00

In linux-next there is a commit ("x86: Add performance variants of cpumask operators") which, as part of the 4096 cpu support work adds some new APIs for dealing with cpu masks. Add trivial versions of these now so that subsystems can update in a timely manner and avoid conflicts in linux-next and the next merge window.
