Here are a number (lots, I know) of fixes for staging drivers to resolve
a bunch of reported issues.
The largest patches here is one revert of a patch that is in 3.14-rc1 to
fix reported problems, and a sync of a usb host driver that required
some ARM patches to go in before it could be accepted (which is why it
missed -rc1).
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

There are a couple of dereferences such as `*(uint32_t
*)(devpriv->insn_buf + 1)` that are unaligned as `devpriv->insn_buf` is
of type `uint8_t *`. This works on x86 architecture but may not be
supported on other architectures. Call `get_unalign()` to perform the
unaligned dereferences.

`comedi_auto_config()` is usually called from the probe routine of a
low-level comedi driver to allocate and auto-configure a comedi device.
Part of this involves calling the low-level driver's `auto_attach()`
handler, and if that is successful, `comedi_device_postconfig()` tries
to complete the configuration of the comedi device. If either of those
fail, `comedi_device_detach()` is called to clean up, and
`comedi_release_hardware_device()` is called to remove the dynamically
allocated comedi device.
Unfortunately, `comedi_device_detach()` clears the `hw_dev` member of
the `struct comedi_device` (indirectly via `comedi_clear_hw_dev()`), and
that stops `comedi_release_hardware_device()` finding the comedi device
associated with the hardware device, so the comedi device won't be
removed properly.
Since `comedi_release_hardware_device()` also calls
`comedi_device_detach()` (assuming it finds the comedi device associated
with the hardware device), the fix is to remove the direct call to
`comedi_device_detach()` from `comedi_auto_config()` and let the call to
`comedi_release_hardware_device()` take care of it.

There is a race condition
Assume we have *one* sync_fence object, with *one* sync_pt
which belongs to *one* sync_timeline, given this condition,
sync_timeline->kref will have two counts, one for sync_timeline
(implicit) and another for sync_pt.
Assume following is the situation on CPU
Theead-1 : (Thread which calls sync_timeline_destroy())
-> (some function calls)
-> sync_timeline_destory()
-> sync_timeline_signal() (CPU is inside this
function after putting reference to sync_timeline)
At this time Thread-2 comes and does following
Thread-2 : (fclose on fence fd)
> sync_fence_release() -> because of fclose() on fence object
-> sync_fence_free()
-> sync_pt_free()
-> kref_put(&pt->parent->kref, sync_timeline_free);
-> sync_timeline_free() (CPU is inside this because
this time kref will be zero after _put)
Thread-2 will free sync_timeline object before Thread-1
has finished its work inside sync_timeline_signal.
With this change we signals all sync_pt before putting
reference to sync_timeline object.

The last value written to a analog output channel is cached in the
private data of this driver for readback.
Currently, the wrong value is cached in the (*insn_write) functions.
The current code stores the data[n] value for readback afer the loop
has written all the values. At this time 'n' points past the end of
the data array.
Fix the functions by using a local variable to hold the data being
written to the analog output channel. This variable is then used
after the loop is complete to store the readback value. The current
value is retrieved before the loop in case no values are actually
written..

but the bb_swing_idx_ofdm[] array only has two members. So the last
two iterations will overwrite bb_swing_idx_ofdm_current and the first
entry in bb_swing_idx_ofdm_base[].
Now, the bug does seem to be benign: bb_swing_idx_ofdm_current isn't
actually ever *used* as far as I can tell, and the first entry of
bb_swing_idx_ofdm_base[] will have been written with that same
"rtldm->default_ofdm_index" value.
But gcc is absolutely correct, and that driver needs fixing.
I've pulled it and will let it be because it doesn't seem to be an
issue in practice, but please fix it. The obvious fix would seem to
change the size of "2" to be "MAX_RF_PATH", but I'll abstain from
doing those kinds of changes in the merge when it doesn't seem to
affect the build or functionality).

Before this change, a timeline would only be removed from the timeline
list *after* the sync driver had its release_obj() called. However, the
driver's release_obj() may free resources needed by print_obj().
Although the timeline list is locked when print_obj() is called, it is
not locked when release_obj() is called. If one CPU was in print_obj()
when another was in release_obj(), the print_obj() may make unsafe
accesses.
It is not actually necessary to hold the timeline list lock when calling
release_obj() if the call is made after the timeline is unlinked from
the list, since there is no possibility another thread could be in --
or enter -- print_obj() for that timeline.
This change moves the release_obj() call to after the timeline is
unlinked, preventing the above race from occurring.

The ION_DUMMY option is bool, and hence this code is either
present or absent. It will never be modular, so using
module_init as an alias for __initcall is rather misleading.
Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
would be a worse thing.
Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets
mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall
directly in this change means that the runtime impact is
zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering.

test build failures (on s390 and perhaps elsewhere).
I also have a few fixes queued up for things that went in during the 3.14
merge window which will follow as a separate pull request (to avoid rebasing
my tree).
Instead of redefining the enums, use the standard ones already
available to avoid the following build errors:
drivers/staging/imx-drm/imx-hdmi.c:56:13: error: nested redefinition of ‘enum hdmi_colorimetry’

There are a couple of ways to get at the drm_device for the vblank
operations. One of them is via the private imxdrm structure, the
other is via the DRM crtc structure, which also stores a pointer.
Use the DRM method instead of our own method.

Here's a single staging driver for a wireless chipset that has shown up
in the SteamBox hardware. It is merged separately from the "main"
staging pull request to sync up with the wireless api changes that came
in from the networking tree.
It's self-contained and works for me and others. Larry will be
replacing it with a "real" driver for 3.15, but for now this one is
needed.

Zram has lived in staging for a LONG LONG time and have been
fixed/improved by many contributors so code is clean and stable now. Of
course, there are lots of product using zram in real practice.
The major TV companys have used zram as swap since two years ago and
recently our production team released android smart phone with zram
which is used as swap, too and recently Android Kitkat start to use zram
for small memory smart phone. And there was a report Google released
their ChromeOS with zram, too and cyanogenmod have been used zram long
time ago. And I heard some disto have used zram block device for tmpfs.
In addition, I saw many report from many other peoples. For example,
Lubuntu start to use it.
The benefit of zram is very clear. With my experience, one of the
benefit was to remove jitter of video application with backgroud memory
pressure. It would be effect of efficient memory usage by compression
but more issue is whether swap is there or not in the system. Recent
mobile platforms have used JAVA so there are many anonymous pages. But
embedded system normally are reluctant to use eMMC or SDCard as swap
because there is wear-leveling and latency issues so if we do not use
swap, it means we can't reclaim anoymous pages and at last, we could
encounter OOM kill. :(
Although we have real storage as swap, it was a problem, too. Because
it sometime ends up making system very unresponsible caused by slow swap
storage performance.
Quote from Luigi on Google
"Since Chrome OS was mentioned: the main reason why we don't use swap
to a disk (rotating or SSD) is because it doesn't degrade gracefully
and leads to a bad interactive experience. Generally we prefer to
manage RAM at a higher level, by transparently killing and restarting
processes. But we noticed that zram is fast enough to be competitive
with the latter, and it lets us make more efficient use of the
available RAM. " and he announced.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg57717.html
Other uses case is to use zram for block device. Zram is block device
so anyone can format the block device and mount on it so some guys on
the internet start zram as /var/tmp.
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-838198-start-0.html
Let's promote zram and enhance/maintain it instead of removing.

This patch moves zsmalloc under mm directory.
Before that, description will explain why we have needed custom
allocator.
Zsmalloc is a new slab-based memory allocator for storing compressed
pages. It is designed for low fragmentation and high allocation success
rate on large object, but <= PAGE_SIZE allocations.
zsmalloc differs from the kernel slab allocator in two primary ways to
achieve these design goals.
zsmalloc never requires high order page allocations to back slabs, or
"size classes" in zsmalloc terms. Instead it allows multiple
single-order pages to be stitched together into a "zspage" which backs
the slab. This allows for higher allocation success rate under memory
pressure.
Also, zsmalloc allows objects to span page boundaries within the zspage.
This allows for lower fragmentation than could be had with the kernel
slab allocator for objects between PAGE_SIZE/2 and PAGE_SIZE. With the
kernel slab allocator, if a page compresses to 60% of it original size,
the memory savings gained through compression is lost in fragmentation
because another object of the same size can't be stored in the leftover
space.
This ability to span pages results in zsmalloc allocations not being
directly addressable by the user. The user is given an
non-dereferencable handle in response to an allocation request. That
handle must be mapped, using zs_map_object(), which returns a pointer to
the mapped region that can be used. The mapping is necessary since the
object data may reside in two different noncontigious pages.
The zsmalloc fulfills the allocation needs for zram perfectly
