When the rate-control indexing is incorrectly set up, mac80211 issues

Before the switch to asynchronous firmware loading (mainline commit b0302ab),

The nl80211 handling code should ensure as much as
it can that the interface is in a valid state, it
can certainly ensure the interface is running.
Not doing so can cause calls through mac80211 into
the driver that result in warnings and unspecified
behaviour in the driver.

Similar to the case where we are changing from one framebuffer to
another, we need to be sure that there are no pending WAIT_FOR_EVENTs on
the pipe for the current framebuffer before switching. If we disable the
pipe, and then try to execute a WAIT_FOR_EVENT it will block
indefinitely and cause a GPU hang.
We attempted to fix this in commit 85345517fe6d4de27b0d6ca19fef9d28ac947c4a
(drm/i915: Retire any pending operations on the old scanout when switching)
for the case of mode switching, but this leaves the condition where we
are switching off the pipe vulnerable.
There still remains the race condition were a display may be unplugged,
switched off by the core, a uevent sent to notify the DDX and the DDX
may issue a WAIT_FOR_EVENT before it processes the uevent. This window
does not exist if the pipe is only switched off in response to the
uevent. Time to make sure that is so...

The driver frees the clock samples buffer before stopping the video
buffers queue. If a DQBUF call arrives in-between,
uvc_video_clock_update() will be called with a NULL clock samples
buffer, leading to a crash. This occurs very frequently when using the
webcam with the flash browser plugin.
Move clock initialization/cleanup to uvc_video_enable() in order to free
the clock samples buffer after the queue is stopped. Make sure the clock
is reset at resume time to avoid miscalculating timestamps.

No, this is the correct patch:
RADIO_MAXIRADIO should be treated just like RADIO_SF16FMR2, I just didn't

This patch retries to get chip version and type 5 times. If it

The commit e399ce77e6e has broken the DVB ABI for xine:
The problem is that xine is expecting every event after a successful
FE_SET_FRONTEND ioctl to have a non-zero frequency parameter, regardless
of whether the tuning process has LOCKed yet. What used to happen is
that the events inherited the initial tuning parameters from the
FE_SET_FRONTEND call. However, the fepriv->parameters_out struct is now
not initialised until the status contains the FE_HAS_LOCK bit.
You might argue that this behaviour is intentional, except that if an
application other than xine uses the DVB adapter and manages to set the
parameters_out.frequency field to something other than zero, then xine
no longer has any problems until either the adapter is replugged or the
kernel modules reloaded. This can only mean that the
fepriv->parameters_out struct still contains the (stale) tuning
information from the previous application.

Quanta TW3 ODM design, which is also used for the Gigabyte W551 laptop

unconnected.

Add abort flag and use it to terminate processing when an exchange
is timed out or is reset. The abort flag is used in place of the
transport_generic_free_cmd function call in the reset and timeout
cases, because calling that function in that context would free
memory that was in use. The aborted flag allows the lifetime to
be managed in a more normal way, while truncating the processing.
This change eliminates a source of memory corruption which
manifested in a variety of ugly ways.

I have a new optimized x86 "strncpy_from_user()" that will use these
same helper functions for all the same reasons the name lookup code uses
them. This is preparation for that.
This moves them into an architecture-specific header file. It's
architecture-specific for two reasons:
- some of the functions are likely to want architecture-specific
implementations. Even if the current code happens to be "generic" in
the sense that it should work on any little-endian machine, it's
likely that the "multiply by a big constant and shift" implementation
is less than optimal for an architecture that has a guaranteed fast
bit count instruction, for example.
- I expect that if architectures like sparc want to start playing
around with this, we'll need to abstract out a few more details (in
particular the actual unaligned accesses). So we're likely to have
more architecture-specific stuff if non-x86 architectures start using
this.
(and if it turns out that non-x86 architectures don't start using
this, then having it in an architecture-specific header is still the
right thing to do, of course)

From Eric Dumazet.
12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a

Fixes from Eric Dumazet.
13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it
immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer
to transmit the PPP frame.
But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the
TX queue right before returning from the transmit method.
Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in
particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should
only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case
when it gets backlogged to the downstream device.
David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until
it's downstream can't take data any more.
14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver
changes, re-add. From Marc Kleine-Budde.
15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen.
16) Descriptor writeback fixes in e1000e from Matthew Vick.

The original XenoLinux code has always had things this way, and for
compatibility reasons (in particular with a subsequent pciback
adjustment) upstream Linux should behave the same way (allowing for two
distinct error indications to be returned by the backend).
