In both the read and write cases it will return an error if
copy_{from/to}_user faults. However, I let the driver try to read/write as
much as it can just as it normally would , then finally it returns an error
if there was one. This was the most straight forward way to handle the
error , since there isn't a clear way to clean up the buffers on error .
I moved retval in idetape_chrdev_write() down into the actual code blocks
since it's really once used there, and it conflicted with my ret variable.
Fixes the following warning,
drivers/ide/ide-tape.c: In function âidetape_copy_stage_from_userâ:

This patch contains a total rewrite of the backlight infrastructure for
portable Apple computers. Backward compatibility is retained. A sysfs
interface allows userland to control the brightness with more steps than
before. Userland is allowed to upload a brightness curve for different
monitors, similar to Mac OS X.

Remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn range from device drivers and get rid of
VM_SHM.
remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO. There is no need to set VM_SHM since
it does nothing. VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not
place pages on the LRU. The pages are therefore never subject to swap
anyways. Remove all the vm_flags settings before calling remap_pfn_range.
After removing all the vm_flag settings no use of VM_SHM is left. Drop it.

This reverts commit 786dc1d3d7.
As Al so eloquently points out, the patch is crap. The old code was fine,
the new code was bogus.
It never dereferenced a user pointer, the "->" operator was to an array
member, which gives the _address_ of the member (in user space), not an
actual dereference at all.

This is the minimal resume trace code to find which device resume (if
any) results in problems. Usually, you'd use the information this
generates as a starting point to adding more fine-grained trace event
points.

Considering that there isn't a lot of hw we can depend on during resume,
this is about as good as it gets.
This is x86-only for now, although the basic concept (and most of the
code) will certainly work on almost any platform.

From: Roland Scheidegger (DRM CVS)

Do a tcl state flush before accessing tcl vector space. This fixes some
more problems with flickering (bug #6637). drm may not be appropriate
place for this, since doing that flush there might both be overkill and
insufficient in some cases. However, it's hard to figure out when that
flush is needed, so this has to suffice. There does not seem to be a
performance penalty associated with it.
