c6a3405846 proc: use single_open() correctly
single_open()'s third argument is for copying into seq_file->private.  Use
that, rather than open-coding it.

6d1b6e4eff proc: ->low_ino cleanup
- ->low_ino is write-once field -- reading it under locks is unnecessary.

- /proc/$PID stuff never reaches pde_put()/free_proc_entry() --
   PROC_DYNAMIC_FIRST check never triggers.

- in proc_get_inode(), inode number always matches proc dir entry, so
  save one parameter.

566538a6cf reiserfs: make sure va_end() is always called after va_start().
A call to va_start() must always be followed by a call to va_end() in the
same function.  In fs/reiserfs/prints.c::print_block() this is not always
the case.  If 'bh' is NULL we'll return without calling va_end().

One could add a call to va_end() before the 'return' statement, but it's
nicer to just move the call to va_start() after the test for 'bh' being
NULL.

cf8e9086de cs5535: deprecate older cs5535_gpio driver
The newer drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c replaces drivers/misc/cs5535_gpio.c.
The new driver has been in the tree for a little while, and has received
some testing; it's time to mark the old one as deprecated.  I'm thinking
removal around 2.6.40 would be good, provided we're not missing critical
functionality in the newer driver.

7637c9259f drivers/staging/olpc_dcon: convert to new cs5535 gpio API
Drop the old geode_gpio crud, as well as the raw outl() calls; instead,
use the Linux GPIO API where possible, and the cs5535_gpio API in other
places.

Note that we don't actually clean up the driver properly yet (once loaded,
it always remains loaded).  That'll come later..

This patch is necessary for building the driver.

1b912c1bca drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c: add some additional cs5535-specific GPIO functionality
This adds (well, re-adds actually) handling for events/IRQs through cs5535
GPIOs.  In the wild and wooly world of CS5535, setup_event() is for
assigning an IRQ to a GPIO filter/event pair, and set_irq() sets up the
pair to trigger IRQs.

These should really only be used in highly platform-specific drivers (such
as OLPC's DCON driver).  Sadly, because set_irq() uses MSRs, this causes
the driver to become X86-specific.

2fb08e6ca9 rtc-cmos: fix suspend/resume
rtc-cmos was setting suspend/resume hooks at the device_driver level.
However, the platform bus code (drivers/base/platform.c) only looks for
resume hooks at the dev_pm_ops level, or within the platform_driver.

Switch rtc_cmos to use dev_pm_ops so that suspend/resume code is executed
again.

Paul said:

: The user visible symptom in our (XO laptop) case was that rtcwake would
: fail to wake the laptop.  The RTC alarm would expire, but the wakeup
: wasn't unmasked.
:
: As for severity, the impact may have been reduced because if I recall
: correctly, the bug only affected platforms with CONFIG_PNP disabled.

554ec37aca vgacon: check for efi machine
It seems there is a small problem of VGA palette corruption on EFI
machine.  When the kernel initializes the architecture, it checks if the
machine is a EFI machine and assumes that a VGA console can exist.

When it initializes the console in vgacon_startup it checks if it can
really use the VGA console.  I think this is where a check is missing.
Currently, the function can fail if a VESA boot mode is detected but not if
a EFI boot mode was used.

Thus vgacon_startup() doesn't fail and initialize the video card for a real
VGA mode.  This function changes the first 16entries of the VGA palette.

When the efifb driver kicks in, the palette is not restored to default
ramp value, thus the 16 first entry remain in a modified state.  The
following patch prevent this corruption.

  the only initialization of it

- the elf_map CPP symbol is not defined anywhere in the kernel, so
  remove an unnecessary #ifndef elf_map

- reduce excessive indentation in elf_format's initializer

- add missing spaces, remove extraneous spaces

On some architectures __kernel_suseconds_t is int.  On these archs struct
timeval has padding bytes at the end.  This struct is copied to userspace
with these padding bytes uninitialized.  This leads to leaking of contents

c023e4734c checkpatch.pl: fix CAST detection
We should only claim that something is a cast if we did not encouter a
token before, that did set av_pending.

This fixes the operator * in the line below to be detected as binary (vs
unary).

kmalloc(sizeof(struct alphatrack_ocmd) * true_size, GFP_KERNEL);

78c377d1b5 flex_array: export symbols to modules
Alex said:

  I want to use flex_array to store a sparse array of ATM cell
  re-assembly buffers for my ATM over Ethernet driver.  Using the per-vcc
  user_back structure causes problems when stacked with things like
  br2684.

Add EXPORT_SYMBOL() for all publically accessible flex array functions
and move to obj-y so that modules may use this library.

ab6c937dba scripts/get_maintainer.pl: use --git-fallback more often

Turns out this is an arguable defect in the script.

The MAINTAINERS entry for mm is:

MEMORY MANAGEMENT
L:	linux-mm@kvack.org
W:	http://www.linux-mm.org
S:	Maintained
F:	include/linux/mm.h
F:	mm/

There's a maintainer entry, but no named individual, so the script doesn't
use git history via --git-fallback.

This is also a defect for MAINTAINERS with status entries marked "Orphan"
or "Odd fixes".

The script now checks a section for any "M:" entry and that an "S:" entry
is supported or maintained.  If both those conditions are not satisified,
use --git-fallback as appropriate.

7e1863af16 scripts/get_maintainer.pl: make --rolestats the default
This script now requires a user to add --norolestats to the command line
so it's harder to feed the output of this script to programs that send
mass emails.

Update --help to correct command line defaults.

Change version to 0.26.

b921c69fb2 lib/vsprintf.c: fix vscnprintf() if @size is == 0
vscnprintf() should return 0 if @size is == 0.  Update the comment for it,
as @size is unsigned.

This change based on the code of commit
b903c0b889 ("lib: fix scnprintf() if @size
is == 0") moves the real fix into vscnprinf() from scnprintf() and makes
scnprintf() call vscnprintf(), thus avoid code duplication.
