Commit 1b963c81b145 ("lockdep, rwsem: provide down_write_nest_lock()")
contains a bug in a codepath when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is disabled,
which causes down_read() to be called instead of down_write() by mistake
on such configurations.  Fix that.

<title>module, async: async_synchronize_full() on module init iff async is used</title>

<id>urn:sha1:774a1221e862b343388347bac9b318767336b20b</id>
<content type='text'>
If the default iosched is built as module, the kernel may deadlock
while trying to load the iosched module on device probe if the probing
was running off async.  This is because async_synchronize_full() at
the end of module init ends up waiting for the async job which
initiated the module loading.

 async A				modprobe

 1. finds a device
 2. registers the block device
 3. request_module(default iosched)
					4. modprobe in userland
					5. load and init module
					6. async_synchronize_full()

Async A waits for modprobe to finish in request_module() and modprobe
waits for async A to finish in async_synchronize_full().

Because there's no easy to track dependency once control goes out to
userland, implementing properly nested flushing is difficult.  For
now, make module init perform async_synchronize_full() iff module init
has queued async jobs as suggested by Linus.

This avoids the described deadlock because iosched module doesn't use
async and thus wouldn't invoke async_synchronize_full().  This is
hacky and incomplete.  It will deadlock if async module loading nests;
however, this works around the known problem case and seems to be the
best of bad options.

For more details, please refer to the following thread.

<title>cpuidle: remove the power_specified field in the driver</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8aef33a7cf40ca9da188e8578b2abe7267a38c52</id>
<content type='text'>
We realized that the power usage field is never filled and when it
is filled for tegra, the power_specified flag is not set causing all
of these values to be reset when the driver is initialized with
set_power_state().

However, the power_specified flag can be simply removed under the
assumption that the states are always backward sorted, which is the
case with the current code.

This change allows the menu governor select function and the
cpuidle_play_dead() to be simplified.  Moreover, the
set_power_states() function can removed as it does not make sense
any more.

Drop the power_specified flag from struct cpuidle_driver and make
the related changes as described above.

As a consequence, this also fixes the bug where on the dynamic
C-states system, the power fields are not initialized.

Since:

commit 2c60db037034d27f8c636403355d52872da92f81
Author: Eric Dumazet &lt;edumazet@google.com&gt;
Date:   Sun Sep 16 09:17:26 2012 +0000

    net: provide a default dev-&gt;ethtool_ops

wireless core does not correctly assign ethtool_ops.

After alloc_netdev*() call, some cfg80211 drivers provide they own
ethtool_ops, but some do not. For them, wireless core provide generic
cfg80211_ethtool_ops, which is assigned in NETDEV_REGISTER notify call:

        if (!dev-&gt;ethtool_ops)
                dev-&gt;ethtool_ops = &amp;cfg80211_ethtool_ops;

But after Eric's commit, dev-&gt;ethtool_ops is no longer NULL (on cfg80211
drivers without custom ethtool_ops), but points to &amp;default_ethtool_ops.

In order to fix the problem, provide function which will overwrite
default_ethtool_ops and use it by wireless core.
