there's a USB mass storage device which exists in two version. One
reports the correct size and the other does not. Apart from that they
are identical and cannot be told apart. Here's a heuristic based on the

usb: descriptor structures have to be packed
Many of the Wireless USB decriptors added to usb_ch9.h don't have the

I added two fields to struct usb_serial_port to keep track of the
throttle state. Other usb-serial drivers typically use private data for
such things, but the generic driver can not really do that because some
of its code is also used by other drivers (which may have their own
private data needs).
As it is, I am not sure that this patch is useful in all scenarios.
It is certainly helpful for low-bandwidth devices that can hold their
data in response to throttling. But for devices that pump data in
real-time as fast as possible (webcam, A/D converter, etc), throttling
may actually cause more data loss.

On recent systems, calls to /sbin/modprobe are handled by udev depending
on the kind of device the kernel has discovered. This patch creates an
uevent for the kernels internal request_module(), to let udev take control
over the request, instead of forking the binary directly by the kernel.
The direct execution of /sbin/modprobe can be disabled by setting:
/sys/module/kmod/mod_request_helper (/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe)
to an empty string, the same way /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug is disabled on an
udev system.

Extend rdma_cm to support multicast communication. Multicast support
is added to the existing RDMA_PS_UDP port space, as well as a new
RDMA_PS_IPOIB port space. The latter port space allows joining the
multicast groups used by IPoIB, which enables offloading IPoIB traffic
to a separate QP. The port space determines the signature used in the
MGID when joining the group. The newly added RDMA_PS_IPOIB also
allows for unicast operations, similar to RDMA_PS_UDP.
Supporting the RDMA_PS_IPOIB requires changing how UD QPs are initialized,
since we can no longer assume that the qkey is constant. This requires
saving the Q_Key to use when attaching to a device, so that it is
available when creating the QP. The Q_Key information is exported to
the user through the existing rdma_init_qp_attr() interface.
Multicast support is also exported to userspace through the rdma_ucm.

The IB SA tracks multicast join/leave requests on a per port basis and
does not do any reference counting: if two users of the same port join
the same group, and one leaves that group, then the SA will remove the
port from the group even though there is one user who wants to stay a
member left. Therefore, in order to support multiple users of the
same multicast group from the same port, we need to perform reference
counting locally.
To do this, add an multicast submodule to ib_sa to perform reference
counting of multicast join/leave operations. Modify ib_ipoib (the
only in-kernel user of multicast) to use the new interface.

The local apic timer calibration has two problem cases:
1. The calibration is based on readout of the PIT/HPET timer to detect the
wrap of the periodic tick. It happens that a box gets stuck in the
calibration loop due to a PIT with a broken readout function.
2. CoreDuo boxen show a sporadic PIT runs too slow defect, which results
in a wrong lapic calibration. The PIT goes back to normal operation once
the lapic timer is switched to periodic mode.
Both are existing and unfixed problems in the current upstream kernel and
prevent certain laptops and other systems from booting Linux.
Rework the code to address both problems:
- Make the calibration interrupt driven. This removes the wait_timer_tick
magic hackery from lapic.c and time_hpet.c. The clockevents framework
allows easy substitution of the global tick event handler for the
calibration. This is more accurate than monitoring jiffies. At this point
of the boot process, nothing disturbes the interrupt delivery, so the
results are very accurate.
- Verify the calibration against the PM timer, when available by using the
early access function. When the measured calibration period is outside of
an one percent window, then the lapic timer calibration is adjusted to the
pm timer result.
- Verify the calibration by running the lapic timer with the calibration
handler. Disable lapic timer in case of deviation.
This also removes the "synchronization" of the local apic timer to the global
tick. This synchronization never worked, as there is no way to synchronize
PIT(HPET) and local APIC timer. The synchronization by waiting for the tick
just alignes the local APIC timer for the first events, but later the events
drift away due to the different clocks. Removing the "sync" is just
randomizing the asynchronous behaviour at setup time.

Add clockevent drivers for i386: lapic (local) and PIT/HPET (global). Update
the timer IRQ to call into the PIT/HPET driver's event handler and the
lapic-timer IRQ to call into the lapic clockevent driver. The assignement of
timer functionality is delegated to the core framework code and replaces the
compile and runtime evalution in do_timer_interrupt_hook()
Use the clockevents broadcast support and implement the lapic_broadcast
function for ACPI.
No changes to existing functionality.

Add functions to provide dynamic ticks and high resolution timers. The code
which keeps track of jiffies and handles the long idle periods is shared
between tick based and high resolution timer based dynticks. The dyntick
functionality can be disabled on the kernel commandline. Provide also the
infrastructure to support high resolution timers.

The tick-management code is the first user of the clockevents layer. It takes
clock event devices from the clock events core and uses them to provide the
periodic tick.

Architectures register their clock event devices, in the clock events core.
Users of the clockevents core can get clock event devices for their use. The
clockevents core code provides notification mechanisms for various clock
related management events.
This allows to control the clock event devices without the architectures
having to worry about the details of function assignment. This is also a
preliminary for high resolution timers and dynamic ticks to allow the core
code to control the clock functionality without intrusive changes to the
architecture code.

The apic code is quite unstructured and missing a lot of comments.
- Restructure the code into helper functions, timer, setup/shutdown,
interrupt and power management blocks.
- Fixup comments.
- Namespace fixups
- Inline helpers for version and is_integrated
- Combine the ack_bad_irq functions

Allow early access to the power management timer by exposing the verified read
function and providing a helper function which checks the pmtmr_ioport
variable and returns either the pm timer readout or 0 in case the pm timer is
not available.
Create a new header file and replace also the ifdef'ed extern definition in
arch/i386/kernel/acpi/boot.c
This is a preperatory patch for the rework of the local apic timer
calibration.

This is a preperatory patch for highres/dyntick:
- replace the big #ifdef ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3 hackery by functions
- remove the double switch in the power verify function (in the worst case
we switched ipi to apic and 20usec later apic to ipi)
- keep track of the the state which stops local APIC timer

Reintroduce ktimers feature "optimized away" by the ktimers review process:
multiple hrtimer states to enable the running of hrtimers without holding the
cpu-base-lock.
(The "optimized" rbtree hack carried only 2 states worth of information and we
need 4 for high resolution timers and dynamic ticks.)

Improve kernel/hrtimers.c locking: use a per-CPU base with a lock to control
locking of all clocks belonging to a CPU. This simplifies code that needs to
lock all clocks at once. This makes life easier for high-res timers and
dyntick.
