b4563e891a [S390] cio: wait for channel report
To fetch a pending channel report word (crw) we use a kernel
thread which triggers stcrw and sleeps on a semaphore. The s390
machine check handler uses crw_handle_channel_report to handle
one crw if needed.

This patch replaces the semaphore with a waitqueue (to block the
kernel thread) and an atomic_t (to count the number of pending
requests).

By this we achieve the ability to force this thread to check for
a pending crw (independent on when it is triggered by the machine
check handler) and wait for this action to finish.

879acca58a [S390] cio: introduce cio_settle
This patch introduces a proc file cio_settle. A write request to
this file is blocked until all queued cio actions are handled.

This will allow userspace to wait for pending work affecting
device availability after changing cio_ignore or the hardware
configuration.

be5d3823f2 [S390] cio: consolidate workqueues
We used to maintain 2 singlethreaded workqueues for synchronization
and to trigger work from interrupt context. Since our latest cio
changes we only use one of these workqueues. So get rid of the
unused workqueue, rename the remaining one to "cio_work_q" and move
its ownership to the channel subsystem driver.

a4a47bc03f Lower USB storage settling delay to something more reasonable
The five-second delay can be rather annoying, and makes the system
appear much less responsive when you connect a USB drive.

It's also not entirely clear that it is needed - the settling delay has
at least historically been an issue on some Apple iPods, for example,
and some devices have been reported to need even more than the old 5s
delay.

But before we penalize them all, let's see how bad it really is.  Some
of the reasons for long delays seem to be actual historical kernel bugs
that should probably never have been papered over with a delay in the
first place (there's a Ubuntu bug report for 2.6.20 about a NULL pointer
dereference unless 'delay_use' is 8 or more, for example).

It also looks like some distros have already shipped with delay_use=0,
so the five second default may well be totally historical.

In other words: "Let's see if anybody screams".

bb8d41330c x86/PCI: Prevent mmconfig memory corruption
commit ff097ddd4 (x86/PCI: MMCONFIG: manage pci_mmcfg_region as a
list, not a table) introduced a nasty memory corruption when
pci_mmcfg_list is empty.

pci_mmcfg_check_end_bus_number() dereferences pci_mmcfg_list.prev even
when the list is empty. The following write hits some variable near to
pci_mmcfg_list.

Further down a similar problem exists, where cfg->list.next is
dereferenced unconditionally and a comparison with some variable near
to pci_mmcfg_list happens.

Add a check for the last element into the for_each_entry() loop and
remove all the other crappy logic which is just a leftover of the old
array based code which was replaced by the list conversion.

453d3131ec ahci: disable FPDMA auto-activate optimization on NVIDIA AHCI
Mike Cui reported that his system with an NVIDIA MCP79 (aka MCP7A)
chipset stopped working with 2.6.32. The problem appears to be that
2.6.32 now enables the FPDMA auto-activate optimization in the ahci
driver. The drive works fine with this enabled on an Intel AHCI so
this appears to be a chipset bug.  Since MCP79 is a fairly recent
NVIDIA chipset and we don't have any info on whether any other NVIDIA
chipsets have this issue, disable FPDMA AA optimization on all NVIDIA
AHCI controllers for now.

Should address http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14922

cbbc0de700 ACPI: Use GPE reference counting to support shared GPEs
To fix a bug and address the reviewers' comments regarding the ACPI
GPE refcounting patch, do the following additional changes:

o Remove the second argument of acpi_ev_enable_gpe(),
  'write_to_hardware', because it is not necessary any more.

o Add the "bad parameter" test against 'type' in
  acpi_enable_gpe() and acpi_disable_gpe().

o Make acpi_enable_gpe() only check 'status' for runtime GPEs if
  acpi_ev_enable_gpe() was actually called.

o Make acpi_disable_gpe() return 'status' returned by
  acpi_ev_disable_gpe() and fix a bug where ACPI_GPE_TYPE_WAKE
  and ACPI_GPE_TYPE_RUNTIME were exchanged by mistake.

o Add comments explaining why acpi_set_gpe() is used by the ACPI EC
  driver.

2030fa496d virtio: console: Add file operations to ports for open/read/write/poll
Allow guest userspace applications to open, read from, write to, poll
the ports via the char dev interface.

When a port gets opened, a notification is sent to the host via a
control message indicating a connection has been established. Similarly,
on closing of the port, a notification is sent indicating disconnection.

fb08bd274d virtio: console: Associate each port with a char device
The char device will be used as an interface by applications on the
guest to communicate with apps on the host.

The devices created are placed in /dev/vportNpn where N is the
virtio-console device number and n is the port number for that device.

One dynamic major device number is allocated for each device and minor
numbers are allocated for the ports contained within that device.

The file operation for the char devs will be added in the following
commits.

b766ceed5b virtio: console: Prepare for writing to userspace buffers
When ports get advertised as char devices, the buffers will come from
userspace. Equip the fill_readbuf function with the ability to write
to userspace buffers.

17634ba255 virtio: console: Add a new MULTIPORT feature, support for generic ports
This commit adds a new feature, MULTIPORT. If the host supports this
feature as well, the config space has the number of ports defined for
that device. New ports are spawned according to this information.

The config space also has the maximum number of ports that can be
spawned for a particular device. This is useful in initializing the
appropriate number of virtqueues in advance, as ports might be
hot-plugged in later.

Using this feature, generic ports can be created which are not tied to
hvc consoles.

We also open up a private channel between the host and the guest via
which some "control" messages are exchanged for the ports, like whether
the port being spawned is a console port, resizing the console window,
etc.

Next commits will add support for hotplugging and presenting char
devices in /dev/ for bi-directional guest-host communication.

f997f00bf8 virtio: console: Introduce a send_buf function for a common path for sending data to host
Adding support for generic ports that will write to userspace will need
some code changes.

Consolidate the write routine into send_buf() and put_chars() now just
calls into the new function.

In preparation for serving data to userspace (generic ports) as well as
in-kernel users (hvc consoles), separate out the functionality common to
both in a 'fill_readbuf()' function.

cfa6d37925 virtio: console: Separate out console init into a new function
Console ports could be hot-added. Also, with the new multiport support,
a port is identified as a console port only if the host sends a control
message.

Move the console port init into a separate function so it can be invoked
from other places.

4f23c573c0 virtio: console: Separate out console-specific data into a separate struct
Move out console-specific stuff into a separate struct from 'struct
port' as we need to maintain two lists: one for all the ports (which
includes consoles) and one only for consoles since the hvc callbacks
only give us the vtermno.

This makes console handling cleaner.
