USB HID: fix a possible NULL pointer dereference when we fail to allocate memory
If, in usb_hid_configure(), we fail to allocate storage for 'usbhid',

then we'll jump to the 'fail:' label where we have this code:
usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbin);
usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbout);
usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbctrl);
Since we got here because we couldn't allocate storage for 'usbhid',
what we have here is a NULL pointer dereference - ouch...
This patch solves that little problem by adding a new
'fail_no_usbhid:' label after the problematic calls to
usb_free_urb() and jumps to that one instead, in the problem case.

genirq: temporary fix for level-triggered IRQ resend
Marcin Slusarz reported a ne2k-pci "hung network interface" regression.
delayed disable relies on the ability to re-trigger the interrupt in the
case that a real interrupt happens after the software disable was set.
In this case we actually disable the interrupt on the hardware level
_after_ it occurred.
On enable_irq, we need to re-trigger the interrupt. On i386 this relies
on a hardware resend mechanism (send_IPI_self()).
Actually we only need the resend for edge type interrupts. Level type
interrupts come back once enable_irq() re-enables the interrupt line.
I assume that the interrupt in question is level triggered because it is
shared and above the legacy irqs 0-15:
17: 12 IO-APIC-fasteoi eth1, eth0
Looking into the IO_APIC code, the resend via send_IPI_self() happens
unconditionally. So the resend is done for level and edge interrupts.
This makes the problem more mysterious.

[IA64] ITC: Reduce rating for ITC clock if ITCs are drifty
Make sure to reduce the rating of the ITC clock if ITCs are drifty. If they
are drifting then we have not synchronized the ITC values, nor are we doing
the jitter compensation (useless since drift may increase the differentials
arbitrarily).
Without this patch it is possible that the ITC clock becomes selected as
the system clock on systems with drifty ITCs which will result in
nanosleep hanging.
One can still select the itc clock manually on such systems via
clocksource=itc
(Produces nice hangs on SGI Altix.)

If the sn2_rtc clock is present then it is a must have since sn2_rtc
provides a synchronized time source on Altix systems. So elevate
the priority to 450. Otherwise the ITC would take precendence. Altix
systems currently do not boot because the ITC clocksource is broken. It
seems to assume that ITCs are synchronized and as a result nanosleep
hangs (may be fixed in a different patch).
While we are at it: Remove the sn2_mc definition. The sn2_rtc has a fixed
address. No point in reading the address from memory. Removing it avoids
touching one cacheline.

Fix WARN_ON() on bitfield ops
Alexey Dobriyan noticed that the new WARN_ON() semantics that were

return the value to be warned on) didn't compile when given a bitfield,
because the typeof doesn't work for bitfields.
So instead of the typeof trick, use an "int" variable together with a
"!!(x)" expression, as suggested by Al Viro.
To make matters more interesting, Paul Mackerras points out that that is
sub-optimal on Power, but the old asm-coded comparison seems to be buggy
anyway on 32-bit Power if the conditional was 64-bit, so I think there
are more problems there.
Regardless, the new WARN_ON() semantics may have been a bad idea. But
this at least avoids the more serious complications.

- In spi_new_device(), emit error messages if the device can't

eventually, the calling convention should probably change to

- Includes one previously-missing check: SPI masters must always

Fix a use after free bug in kernel->userspace relay file support
Coverity spotted what looks like a real possible case of using a variable
after it has been freed. The problem is in
kernel/relay.c::relay_open_buf()
If the code hits "goto free_buf;" it ends up in this code :
free_buf:
relay_destroy_buf(buf); <--- calls kfree() on 'buf'.
free_name:
kfree(tmpname);
end:
return buf; <-- use after free of 'buf'.
I read through the callers and they all handle a NULL return from this
function as an error (and hitting the 'free_buf' label only happens on
failure to chan->cb->create_buf_file(), so that looks like a clear error to
me).
The patch simply sets 'buf' to NULL after the call to
relay_destroy_buf(buf); - as far as I can see that should take care of the
problem.
The patch also corrects a reference to a documentation file while
I was at it.
Note from Mathieu: the documentation reference change should have been
done in a separate patch, but I guess no one will really care.

use __val in __get_unaligned
Use "__val" rather than "val" in the __get_unaligned macro in
asm-generic/unaligned.h. This way gcc wont warn if you happen to also name
something in the same scope "val".

This is only called at init time and only happens if the BIOS screws
something up, so the leak is slight and it is probably not worth sending to
2.6.22.x. The driver would not initialize the interface in the case, and I
have no reports of this happening. I have booted and run tests on a system
with this patch. Note that the original patch was munged by the mailer,
here's a new one.
If we ever hit the "default:" case in the switch in try_init_dmi(),
then we'll leak the storage allocated with kzalloc() and assigned
to 'info'.
