Andreas Ferber 847253b948 MIPS: Fix SSB PCIcore IO resource management
The SSB PCIcore code reused the IO resource fixup code from the original
2.4.x Broadcom patch for BCM47xx based devices, which was a quick hack
for doing PCI IO resource configuration back then (the boot loader
doesn't configure PCI devices on this platform).

However, this code is no longer necessary since the kernel now can do
PCI resource management fine all by itself, so remove the old code.

When removing the code, it becomes obvious that the mem_offset setting
in the PCIcore driver was wrong, however this was masked by the fixup
code before, except in a few cases involving yenta_socket. For BCM47xx,
the correct offset is 0, and since this is the only device using PCIcore
in host mode, the offset can simply be removed unconditionally.

It changes user-visible sysfs interfaces, and breaks some existing user

actually trying to achieve, and unifies the 0x30/0x40 parsing.

Anton Blanchard 320718ee07 hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_remove
I don't claim to understand the tty layer, but it seems like hvc_open and
hvc_close should be balanced in their kref reference counting.

Right now we get a kref every call to hvc_open:

        if (hp->count++ > 0) {
                tty_kref_get(tty); <----- here
                spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hp->lock, flags);
                hvc_kick();
                return 0;
        } /* else count == 0 */

        tty->driver_data = hp;

        hp->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); <------ or here if hp->count was 0

But hvc_close has:

        tty_kref_get(tty);

        if (--hp->count == 0) {
...
                /* Put the ref obtained in hvc_open() */
                tty_kref_put(tty);
...
        }

        tty_kref_put(tty);

Since the outside kref get/put balance we only do a single kref_put when
count reaches 0.

The patch below changes things to call tty_kref_put once for every
hvc_close call, and with that my machine boots fine.

Anton Blanchard 55ab3a1ff8 raw: fsync method is now required
Commit 148f948ba8 (vfs: Introduce new
helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) broke
the raw driver.

We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync ->
vfs_fsync_range.  vfs_fsync_range has:

        if (!fop || !fop->fsync) {
                ret = -EINVAL;
                goto out;
        }

But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method.

We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely.  I'm
happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it
is rarely used.

The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver.  My knowledge of
the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over.

If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be
useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

Alexander Shishkin da25801629 mb862xxfb: update Valentin's email address
Since Valentin's email address @siemens.com is no longer valid, it's time
to change it to the one that actually works so that I don't have to
manually forward patches against mb862xx to him every time.

Randy Dunlap a71dc148c2 mb862xxfb: fix acceleration module license
mb862xxfb_accel built as a separate module, but it does not have a
MODULE_LICENSE, so it taints the kernel.  Add a MODULE_LICENSE to it (same
as mb862xxfb license).

mb862xxfb_accel: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.

Or should mb862xxfb_accel be built into the mb862xxfb binary file instead?

Anton Blanchard 6e191f7bb0 devmem: handle class_create() failure
I hit this when we had a bug in IDR for a few days.  Basically sysfs would
fail to create new inodes since it uses an IDR and therefore class_create
would fail.

While we are unlikely to see this fail we may as well handle it instead of
oopsing.
