f1c18071ad x86: HPET: Chose a paranoid safe value for the ETIME check
commit 995bd3bb5 (x86: Hpet: Avoid the comparator readback penalty)
chose 8 HPET cycles as a safe value for the ETIME check, as we had the
confirmation that the posted write to the comparator register is
delayed by two HPET clock cycles on Intel chipsets which showed
readback problems.

After that patch hit mainline we got reports from machines with newer
AMD chipsets which seem to have an even longer delay. See
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1054283 and
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1069458 for further
information.

Boris tried to come up with an ACPI based selection of the minimum
HPET cycles, but this failed on a couple of test machines. And of
course we did not get any useful information from the hardware folks.

For now our only option is to chose a paranoid high and safe value for
the minimum HPET cycles used by the ETIME check. Adjust the minimum ns
value for the HPET clockevent accordingly.

80fbf8382e sh: Enable deprecated IRQ chip APIs for MFD and GPIOLIB drivers.
There are still quite a number of MFD and GPIO expander drivers that are
using the old irq_chip APIs that haven't had a chance to update during
the .37 cycle, resulting in allyes/modconfig errors on some
configurations.

Mark Brown has done most of the legwork to get these fixed up in .38,
so this should just be a .37 stop-gap that we can drop at the end of the
.38 merge window.

da30e0ac0f ARM: 6528/1: Use CTR for the I-cache line size on ARMv7
The current implementation of the v7_coherent_*_range function assumes
that the D and I cache lines have the same size, which is incorrect
architecturally. This patch adds the icache_line_size macro which reads
the CTR register. The main loop in v7_coherent_*_range is split in two
independent loops or the D and I caches. This also has the performance
advantage that the DSB is moved outside the main loop.

f91e2c3bd4 ARM: 6527/1: Use CTR instead of CCSIDR for the D-cache line size on ARMv7
The current implementation of the dcache_line_size macro reads the L1
cache size from the CCSIDR register. This, however, is not guaranteed to
be the smallest cache line in the cache hierarchy. The patch changes to
the macro to use the more architecturally correct CTR register.

9993e0fe0f firewire: ohci: fix regression with Agere FW643 rev 06, disable MSI
Agere FW643 rev 06, listed as "11c1:5901 (rev 06) (prog-if 10 [OHCI])",
produced SBP-2 I/O errors since kernel 2.6.36.  Disabling MSI fixes it.

Since MSI work on Agere FW643-E (same vendor and device ID, but rev 07),
introduce a device revision field into firewire-ohci's quirks list so
that different quirks can be defined for older and newer revisions.

d90aa92c0c acpi: fix _OSI string setup regression
commit b0ed7a91(ACPICA/ACPI: Add new host interfaces for _OSI suppor)
introduced a regression that _OSI string setup fails.

There are 2 paths to setup _OSI string.

DMI:
acpi_dmi_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux -> acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI
string to osi_setup_string

Boot command line:
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string

Later, acpi_osi_setup_late will be called to handle osi_setup_string.
If _OSI string is "Linux" or "!Linux", then the call path is,

acpi_osi_setup_late -> acpi_cmdline_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux ->
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string

This actually never installs _OSI string(acpi_install_interface not
called), but just copy the _OSI string to osi_setup_string.

This patch fixes the regression.

914ee295af Btrfs: pwrite blocked when writing from the mmaped buffer of the same page
This problem is found in meego testing:
http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6672
A file in btrfs is mmaped and the mmaped buffer is passed to pwrite to write to the same page
of the same file. In btrfs_file_aio_write(), the pages is locked by prepare_pages(). So when
btrfs_copy_from_user() is called, page fault happens and the same page needs to be locked again
in filemap_fault(). The fix is to move iov_iter_fault_in_readable() before prepage_pages() to make page
fault happen before pages are locked. And also disable page fault in critical region in
btrfs_copy_from_user().

3700c3c293 connector: add module alias
Since connector can be built as a module and uses netlink socket
to communicate. The module should have an alias to autoload when socket
of NETLINK_CONNECTOR type is requested.

e4fbce740f r8169: Fix runtime power management
I noticed that one of the post-2.6.36 patches broke runtime PM of the
r8169 on my MSI Wind test machine in such a way that the link was not
brought up after reconnecting the network cable.

In the process of debugging the issue I realized that we only should
invoke the runtime PM functions in rtl8169_check_link_status() when
link change is reported and if we do so, the problem goes away.
Moreover, this allows rtl8169_runtime_idle() to be simplified quite
a bit.

5b362ac379 NFS: Fix panic after nfs_umount()
After a few unsuccessful NFS mount attempts in which the client and
server cannot agree on an authentication flavor both support, the
client panics.  nfs_umount() is invoked in the kernel in this case.

Turns out nfs_umount()'s UMNT RPC invocation causes the RPC client to
write off the end of the rpc_clnt's iostat array.  This is because the
mount client's nrprocs field is initialized with the count of defined
procedures (two: MNT and UMNT), rather than the size of the client's
proc array (four).

The fix is to use the same initialization technique used by most other
upper layer clients in the kernel.

Introduced by commit 0b524123, which failed to update nrprocs when
support was added for UMNT in the kernel.

6934d33556 hso: IP checksuming doesn't work on GE0301 option cards
There is definitly a problem, that some option cards send up broken
IP pakets leading to corrupted IP packets. These corruptions aren't
detected, because the driver claims that the packets are already
checksummed. This change removes the CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY option
and let IP detect broken data.
