The function jbd2_journal_write_metadata_buffer() calls
jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh_in) too early; this could potentially allow
another thread to call get_write_access on the buffer head, modify the
data, and dirty it, and allowing the wrong data to be written into the
journal. Fortunately, if we lose this race, the only time this will
actually cause filesystem corruption is if there is a system crash or
other unclean shutdown of the system before the next commit can take

We found a problem with buffer head reference leaks when using an ext4
partition without a journal. In particular, calls to ext4_forget() would
not to a brelse() on the input buffer head, which will cause pages they
belong to to not be reclaimable.
Further investigation showed that all places where ext4_journal_forget() and
ext4_journal_revoke() are called are subject to the same problem. The patch
below changes __ext4_journal_forget/__ext4_journal_revoke to do an explicit
release of the buffer head when the journal handle isn't valid.

So TRACE_SYSTEM should be defined outside of #if proctection,

The issue was, that the locking code in mkiss was assuming it was only
ever being called in process or bh context. Fixed by converting the
involved locking code to use irq-safe locks.
Review of other networking line disciplines shows that 6pack, both sync
and async PPP and STRIP have similar issues. The ppp_async one is the
most interesting one as it sorts out half of the issue as far back as
2004 in commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=2996d8deaeddd01820691a872550dc0cfba0c37d

This patch (as1264) removes a bunch of unnecessary and erroneous stuff
from the option USB-serial driver. Clearly there's no need to verify
that the device pointer stored in the URBs is right or to store the
same pointer over again. After all, the pointer can't change once it
has been set up.
There's also no need to call usb_clear_halt for the IN endpoint
multiple times -- in fact, doing so is an error since every time after
the first there will be active URBs queued for that endpoint. Since
the Clear-Halts don't appear to be needed at all, the patch simply
removes them.

commit b7af0bb ("USB: allow malformed LANGID descriptors") broke support
for devices without string descriptor support.
Reporting string descriptors is optional to USB devices, and a device
lets us know it can't deal with strings by responding to the LANGID
request with a STALL token.
The kernel handled that correctly before b7af0bb came in, but failed
hard if the LANGID was reported but broken. More than that, if a device
was not able to provide string descriptors, the LANGID was retrieved
over and over again at each string read request.
This patch changes the behaviour so that
a) the LANGID is only queried once
b) devices which can't handle string requests are not asked again
c) devices with malformed LANGID values have a sane fallback to 0x0409

The patch makes small modifications to 2 files: ./drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c
and ./drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.h. It accomplishes 3 things:
1. Define the VID and PIDs to allow the driver to recognize the NDI devices.
2. Map the 19200 baud rate setting to our higher baud rate of 1.2Mb
We would have chosen to map 38400 to the higher rate, similar to what
several other vendors have done, but some of our legacy customers actually
use 38400, therefore we remap 19200 to the higher rate.
3. We set the default transmit latency in the FTDI chip to 1ms for our devices.
Our devices are typically polled at 60Hz and the default ftdi latency
seriously affects turn-around time and results in missed data frames. We
have created a modprobe option that allows this setting to be increased.
This has proven necessary particularly in some virtualized environments.

This reverts commit cc71329b3b, so that
Red Hat machines can boot properly. It seems that the Red Hat initrd
code tries to watch the /proc/bus/usb/devices file to monitor usb
devices showing up. While this task is prone to lots of races and does
not show the true state of the system, they seem to like it.
So for now, don't move this option under the EMBEDDED config option.

The reworked Ethernet gadget has an RNDIS interop problem when used
with the CDC subset driver ... e.g. on PXA 2xx and 3xx hardware,
which currently has a hard time talking to MS-Windows hosts.
The issue is that Microsoft requires USB_CLASS_COMM. Fix by tweaking
the CDC subset driver to not switch to USB_CLASS_VENDOR_SPEC if RNDIS
is used in some other device configuration.

It seems an USB device with vendor id 0403 and product code FB80 has an
FTDI serial io chip as well: http://ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm
This device in fact is a true random generantor by comsci:
http://comscire.com/Products/R2000KU/
So the following patch should add support for this device if I am
correct. Not tested as I do not own this device (I would like support in
the kernel so that my entropybroker application (which distributes
entrop data (random values) between servers and clients)).
