Commit 2a7fade7e0 ("hwmon: lis3: Power on corrections") caused a
regression on HP laptops with 8bit chip. Writing CTRL2_BOOT_8B bit seems
clearing the BIOS setup, and no proper interrupt for DriveGuard will be
triggered any more.
Since the init code there is basically only for embedded devices, put a
pdata check so that the problematic initialization will be skipped for
hp_accel stuff.

In drivers/misc/pti.c::pti_control_frame_built_and_sent() we assign 'comm'
to 'thread_name_p' if (!thread_name). The problem is that 'comm' then
goes out of scope and later we use 'thread_name_p' which now refers to an
out-of-scope variable. To fix that, simply move 'comm' up to have
function scope.

Previously the private data of each protocol registered to use ST was
used to determine whether the protocol was registered to use shared

However, now a flag is_registered is maintained to identify whether a

Both displays on digsy_mtc board obtain their configuration from microwire
EEPROMs which are connected to the SoC over GPIO lines. We need an easy
way to access the EEPROMs to write the needed display configuration or to
read out the currently programmed configuration. The generic
eeprom_93xx46 SPI driver added by previous patch allows EEPROM access over
sysfs. Using the simple driver added by this patch we provide used GPIO
interface and access control description on the board for generic
eeprom_93xx46 driver and spi_gpio driver.

As stated in drivers/mfd/cs5535-mfd.c, the mfd driver exposes the BARs
which then make the GPIO, MFGPT, ACPI, etc. all visible to the system.
So the dependencies of the MFGPT stuff have changed, and most people
expect Kconfig to bring in the necessary dependencies. Without them, the
module fails to load and most people don't understand why because the
details of the rewrite aren't captured anywhere most people who know to
look.
This dependency needs to be reflected in Kconfig.

Fix the wrong `if' condition for the check if the requested timer is

The bitmap avail is used to store if a timer is used already. test_bit()
is used to check if the requested timer is available. If a bit in the
avail bitmap is set it means that the timer is available.
The runtime effect would be that allocating a specific timer always fails
(versus telling cs5535_mfgpt_alloc_timer to allocate the first available

it points to cur_action, but the increment is done by

This reverts commit b1c43f82c5.
It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.
It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").
It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.
And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
"It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a
large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
data in the quoted bits further down).
...
Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
process that could have emptied the PTY."
which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af.
Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.
