i2c-mpc: do not allow interruptions when waiting for I2C to complete
The i2c_wait() function is using wait_event_interruptible_timeout() to wait for
the I2C controller to signal that it has completed an I2C bus operation. If
the process that causes the I2C operation terminated abruptly, the wait will
be interrupted, returning an error. It is better to let the I2C operation
finished before the process exits.
It is safe to use wait_event_timeout() instead, because the timeout will allow
the process to exit if the I2C bus hangs. It's also better to allow the
I2C operation to finish, because unacknowledged I2C operations can cause the
I2C bus to hang.

powerpc/pseries: Implement a quota system for MSIs
There are hardware limitations on the number of available MSIs,
which firmware expresses using a property named "ibm,pe-total-#msi".
This property tells us how many MSIs are available for devices below
the point in the PCI tree where we find the property.
For old firmwares which don't have the property, we assume there are
8 MSIs available per "partitionable endpoint" (PE). The PE can be
found using existing EEH code, which uses the methods described in
PAPR. For our purposes we want the parent of the node that's
identified using this method.
When a driver requests n MSIs for a device, we first establish where
the "ibm,pe-total-#msi" property above that device is, or we find the
PE if the property is not found. In both cases we call this node
the "pe_dn".
We then count all non-bridge devices below the pe_dn, to establish
how many devices in total may need MSIs. The quota is then simply the
total available divided by the number of devices, if the request is
less than or equal to the quota, the request is fine and we're done.
If the request is greater than the quota, we try to determine if there
are any "spare" MSIs which we can give to this device. Spare MSIs are
found by looking for other devices which can never use their full
quota, because their "req#msi(-x)" property is less than the quota.
If we find any spare, we divide the spares by the number of devices
that could request more than their quota. This ensures the spare
MSIs are spread evenly amongst all over-quota requestors.

The video_ioctl2 conversion of ivtv in kernel 2.6.27 introduced a bug
causing decoder commands to crash. The decoder commands should have been
handled from the video_ioctl2 default handler, ensuring correct mapping
of the argument between user and kernel space. Unfortunately they ended
up before the video_ioctl2 call, causing random crashes.
Thanks to hannes@linus.priv.at for testing and helping me track down the
cause!

V4L/DVB (10619): gspca - main: Destroy the URBs at disconnection time.
If a device using the gspca framework is unplugged while it is still streaming
then the call that is used to free the URBs that have been allocated occurs
after the pointer it uses becomes invalid at the end of gspca_disconnect.
Make another cleanup call in gspca_disconnect while the pointer is still
valid (multiple calls are OK as destroy_urbs checks for pointers already
being NULL.
This change set is wrong. The affected functions cannot be called from
an interrupt context, because they may process large buffers. In this
case, interrupts are disabled for a long time. Functions, like
dvb_dmx_swfilter_packets(), could be called only from a tasklet.
This change set does hide some strong design bugs in dm1105.c and
au0828-dvb.c.
Please revert this change set and do fix the bugs in dm1105.c and
au0828-dvb.c (and other files).

This changeset _must_ be reverted! It breaks all kernels since 2.6.27
for applications which use DVB and require a low interrupt latency.
It is a very bad idea to call the demuxer to process data buffers with
interrupts disabled!

I agree, this is bad. The demuxer is far too much work to be done with
IRQs off. IMHO, even doing it under a spin-lock is excessive. It should
be a mutex. Drivers should use a work-queue to feed the demuxer.
Thank you for testing this changeset and discovering the issues on it.

V4L/DVB (10533): fix LED status output

What happens is that some tuner commands are going to the wrong place,
as shown at the logs:
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: using tuner params #0 (ntsc)
Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: freq = 67.25 (1076), range = 0, config = 0xce, cb = 0x01

Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: tv 0x07 0x10 0xce 0x01
This happens due to a hack at TUV1236D analog setup, where it replaces
tuner address, at 0x61 for 0x0a, in order to save a few memory bytes.
The code assumes that nobody else would try to access the tuner during
that setup, but the point is that there's no lock to protect such
access. So, this opens the possibility of race conditions to happen.
Instead of hacking tuner address, this patch uses a temporary var with
the proper tuner value to be used during the setup. This should save
the issue, although we should consider to write some analog/digital
lock at saa7134 driver.

HID: move tmff and zpff devices from ignore_list to blacklist
The devices handled by hid-tmff and hid-zpff were added in the
hid_ignore_list[] instead of hid_blacklist[] in hid-core.c, thus
disabling them completely.
hid_ignore_list[] causes hid layer to skip the device, while
hid_blacklist[] indicates there is a specific driver in hid bus.
Re-enable the devices by moving them to the correct list.

HID: blacklist Powercom USB UPS
For quite some time users with various UPSes from Powercom were forced to play
magic with bind/unbind in /sys in order to be able to see the UPSes. The
beasts does not work as HID devices, even if claims to do so. cypress_m8
driver works with the devices instead, creating a normal serial port with which
normal UPS controlling software works.
The manufacturer confirmed the upcoming models with proper HID support will
have different device IDs. In any way, it's wrong to have two completely
different modules for one device in kernel.
Blacklist the device in HID (add it to hid_ignore_list) to stop this mess,
finally.

crypto: lrw - Fix big endian support
It turns out that LRW has never worked properly on big endian.
This was never discussed because nobody actually used it that
way. In fact, it was only discovered when Geert Uytterhoeven
loaded it through tcrypt which failed the test on it.
The fix is straightforward, on big endian the to find the nth
bit we should be grouping them by words instead of bytes. So
setbit128_bbe should xor with 128 - BITS_PER_LONG instead of
128 - BITS_PER_BYTE == 0x78.

Commit 871af1210f13966ab911ed2166e4ab2ce775b99d (libata: Add 32bit
PIO support) has caused all kinds of errors on the ATAPI devices, so
it has been empirically proven that one shouldn't try to read/write
an extra data word when a device is not expecting it already. "Don't
do it then"; however, still use a chance to do 32-bit read/write one
last time when there are exactly 3 trailing bytes.
Oh, and stop pointlessly swapping the bytes to and fro on big-endian
machines by using io*_rep() accessors which shouldn't byte-swap.
