9a2845c453 ipmi: fix ipmi_si modprobe hang
Instead of queuing IPMB messages before channel initialization, just
throw them away.  Nobody will be listening for them at this point,
anyway, and they will clog up the queue and nothing will be delivered
if we queue them.

Also set the current channel to the number of channels, as this value
is used to tell if the channel information has been initialized.

It is possible for ide-cd to ignore ide_error()'s return value under
some circumstances.  Workaround it in ide_intr() and ide_timer_expiry()
by checking if there is a device/port reset pending currently.

8369d5fa63 ide: fix 40-wire cable detection for TSST SH-S202* ATAPI devices (v2)
Since 2.6.26 we support UDMA66 on ATAPI devices requiring IVB quirk:

  commit 8588a2b732
  ("ide: add SH-S202J to ivb_list[]")

We also later added support for more such devices in:

  commit e97564f362
  ("ide: More TSST drives with broken cable detection")

and in:

  commit 3ced5c49bd
  ("ide: add TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S202H to ivb_list[]")

It turns out that such devices lack cable detection altogether
(which in turn results in incorrect detection of 40-wire cables
by our current cable detection strategy) so always handle them
by trusting host-side cable detection only.

v2:
Model detection fixup from Martin.

2e077f8e83 fsldma: fix memory leak on error path in fsl_dma_prep_memcpy()
When preparing a memcpy operation, if the kernel fails to allocate memory
for a link descriptor after the first link descriptor has already been
allocated, then some memory will never be released. Fix the problem by
walking the list of allocated descriptors backwards, and freeing the
allocated descriptors back into the DMA pool.

776c8943f2 fsldma: snooping is not enabled for last entry in descriptor chain
On the 83xx controller, snooping is necessary for the DMA controller to
ensure cache coherence with the CPU when transferring to/from RAM.

The last descriptor in a chain will always have the End-of-Chain interrupt
bit set, so we can set the snoop bit while adding the End-of-Chain
interrupt bit.

bcfb7465c0 fsldma: fix infinite loop on multi-descriptor DMA chain completion
When creating a DMA transaction with multiple descriptors, the async_tx
cookie is set to 0 for each descriptor in the chain, excluding the last
descriptor, whose cookie is set to -EBUSY.

When fsl_dma_tx_submit() is run, it only assigns a cookie to the first
descriptor. All of the remaining descriptors keep their original value,
including the last descriptor, which is set to -EBUSY.

After the DMA completes, the driver will update the last completed cookie
to be -EBUSY, which is an error code instead of a valid cookie. This causes
dma_async_is_complete() to always return DMA_IN_PROGRESS.

This causes the fsldma driver to never cleanup the queue of link
descriptors, and the driver will re-run the DMA transaction on the hardware
each time it receives the End-of-Chain interrupt. This causes an infinite
loop.

With this patch, fsl_dma_tx_submit() is changed to assign a cookie to every
descriptor in the chain. The rest of the code then works without problems.

138ef01851 fsldma: fix "DMA halt timeout!" errors
When using the DMA controller from multiple threads at the same time, it is
possible to get lots of "DMA halt timeout!" errors printed to the kernel
log.

This occurs due to a race between fsl_dma_memcpy_issue_pending() and the
interrupt handler, fsl_dma_chan_do_interrupt(). Both call the
fsl_chan_xfer_ld_queue() function, which does not protect against
concurrent accesses to dma_halt() and dma_start().

The existing spinlock is moved to cover the dma_halt() and dma_start()
functions. Testing shows that the "DMA halt timeout!" errors disappear.

e069c0cf7c wimax/i2400m: usb: fix device reset on autosuspend while not yet idle
When the i2400m is connected to a network, the host interface (USB)
cannot be suspended. For that to happen, the device has to have
negotiated with the basestation to put the link on IDLE state.

If the host tries to put the device in standby while it is connected
but not idle, the device resets, as the driver should not do that.

To avoid triggering that, when the USB susbsytem requires the driver
to autosuspend the device, the driver checks if the device is not yet
idle. If it is not, the request is rejected (will be retried again
later on after the autosuspend timeout). At some point the device will
enter idle and the request will succeed (unless of course, there is
network traffic, but at that point, there is no idle neither in the
link or the host interface).

1ddbcb005c net: fix rtable leak in net/ipv4/route.c
Alexander V. Lukyanov found a regression in 2.6.29 and made a complete
analysis found in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13339
Quoted here because its a perfect one :

begin_of_quotation
 2.6.29 patch has introduced flexible route cache rebuilding. Unfortunately the
 patch has at least one critical flaw, and another problem.

 rt_intern_hash calculates rthi pointer, which is later used for new entry
 insertion. The same loop calculates cand pointer which is used to clean the
 list. If the pointers are the same, rtable leak occurs, as first the cand is
 removed then the new entry is appended to it.

 This leak leads to unregister_netdevice problem (usage count > 0).

 Another problem of the patch is that it tries to insert the entries in certain
 order, to facilitate counting of entries distinct by all but QoS parameters.
 Unfortunately, referencing an existing rtable entry moves it to list beginning,
 to speed up further lookups, so the carefully built order is destroyed.

 For the first problem the simplest patch it to set rthi=0 when rthi==cand, but
 it will also destroy the ordering.
end_of_quotation

Problematic commit is 1080d709fb
(net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceeded)

Trying to keep dst_entries ordered is too complex and breaks the fact that
order should depend on the frequency of use for garbage collection.

A possible fix is to make rt_intern_hash() simpler, and only makes
rt_check_expire() a litle bit smarter, being able to cope with an arbitrary
entries order. The added loop is running on cache hot data, while cpu
is prefetching next object, so should be unnoticied.

cf8da764fc net: fix length computation in rt_check_expire()
rt_check_expire() computes average and standard deviation of chain lengths,
but not correclty reset length to 0 at beginning of each chain.
This probably gives overflows for sum2 (and sum) on loaded machines instead
of meaningful results.
