1) Buggy firmware can change the RFKILL state by itself. This is easily
detected. The RFKILL API states that in such cases, we should call
rfkill_force_state() to notify the core.
I have reported the bug to Asus. I believe this is the right thing
to do for robustness, even if this particular firmware bug is fixed.
2) The same bug causes the wireless toggle key to be reported as 0x11
instead of 0x10. 0x11 is otherwise unused, so it should be safe to
add this as a new keycode.
The bug is triggered by removing the laptop battery while hibernated.
On resume, the wireless toggle key causes the firmware to toggle the
wireless state itself. (Also, the key is reported as 0x11 when the
current wireless state is OFF).
This is very poor behaviour because the OS can't predict whether the
firmware is controlling the RFKILL state.
Without this workaround, the bug means users have to press the wireless
toggle key twice to enable, due to the OS/firmware conflict. (Assuming
rfkill-input or equivalent is being used). The workaround avoids this.
I believe that acpid scripts which toggle the value of the sysfs state file
when the toggle key is pressed will be rendered ineffective by the bug,
regardless of this workaround. If they simply toggle the state, when the
firmware has already toggled it, then you will never see a state change.
Tested on "EEEPC 4G" only.

This maps the brightness control events to one of two keys, either
KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN or KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP, as needed.
Some mapping has to be done due to the fact that the BIOS reports them as
<base value> + <current brightness index>; the selection is done according to
the sign of the change in brightness (if this is 0, no keypress is reported).

When an rfkill device is registered, the rfkill core will change its
state to the system default. So we need to prepare for state changes
*before* we register it. That means installing the eeepc-specific ACPI
callback which handles the hotplug of the wireless network adaptor.
This problem doesn't occur during normal operation. You have to
1) Boot with wireless enabled. eeepc-laptop should load automatically.
2) modprobe -r eeepc-laptop
3) modprobe eeepc-laptop
On boot, the default rfkill state will be set to enabled.
With the current core code, step 2) will disable the wireless.
Therefore in step 3), the wireless will change state during registration,
from disabled to enabled. But without this fix, the PCI device for the
wireless adaptor will not appear.

When init is started it is SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE. If it were to get an
address error, we would try to send it SIGBUS, but it would be ignored
and the faulting instruction restarted. This results in an endless
loop.
We need to use force_sig() instead so it will actually die and give us
some useful information.

introduces the variable _page_cachable_default, which defaults to zero and.
is used to create the prototype PTE for __kmap_atomic in
arch/mips/mm/init.c:kmap_init before initialization in
arch/mips/mm/c-r4k.c:coherency_setup, so the default value of 0 will be
used as the CCA of kmap atomic pages which on many processors is not a
defined CCA value and may result in writes to kmap_atomic pages getting
corrupted. Debugged by Jon Fraser (jfraser@broadcom.com).
