bf5e5834bf pl2303: Fix mode switching regression
Cleaning out all the incorrect 'no change made' checks for termios
settings showed up a problem with the PL2303. The hardware here seems to
lose sync and bits if you tell it to make no changes. This shows up with
a real world application.

To fix this the driver check for meaningful hardware changes is restored
but doing the tests correctly and as a tty layer function so it doesn't
get duplicated wrongly everywhere if other drivers turn out to need it.

db99247ac6 tty: fix logic change introduced by wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
Commit 5a52bd4a2d introduced a subtle logic
change in tty_wait_until_sent().  The original version would only error out
of the 'do { ...  } while (timeout)' loop if signal_pending() evaluated to
true; a timeout or break due to an empty buffer would fall out of the loop
and into the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling.  The current
implementation will error out on either a pending signal or an empty
buffer, falling through to the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling only
on a timeout.

The ->wait_until_sent() will not be reached if the buffer empties before
timeout jiffies have elapsed.  This behavior differs from that prior to commit
5a52bd4a2d.

I turned this up while using a little serial download utility to bootstrap an
ARM-based eval board.  The util worked fine on 2.6.22.x, but consistently
failed on 2.6.23.x.  Once I'd determined that, I narrowed things down with git
bisect, and found the above difference in logic in tty_wait_until_sent() by
inspection.

This change reverts the logic flow in tty_wait_until_sent() to match that
prior to the aforementioned commit.

4670df831c gpio_cs5535: disable AUX on output
The AMD CS5535/CS5536 GPIO has two alternate output modes: AUX-1 and AUX-2.
When either AUX is enabled, the cs5535_gpio driver cannot control the
output.

Some BIOS code for the Geode processor enables AUX-1 for GPIO-1, which
configures it as the PC BEEP output.

This patch will disable AUX-1 and AUX-2 when the user enables output.

05a462afe8 TPM: fix TIS device driver locality request
During the initialization of the TPM TIS driver, the necessary locality has
to be requested earlier in the init-process.  Depending on the used TPM
chip, this leads to wrong information.  For example: Lenovo X61s with Atmel
TPM:

tpm_tis 00:0a: 1.2 TPM (device-id 0xFFFF, rev-id 255)

But correct is:

tpm_tis 00:0c: 1.2 TPM (device-id 0x3203, rev-id 9)

This short patch fixes this issue.

9626f1f117 rtc: fall back to requesting only the ports we actually use
Firmware like PNPBIOS or ACPI can report the address space consumed by the
RTC.  The actual space consumed may be less than the size (RTC_IO_EXTENT)
assumed by the RTC driver.

The PNP core doesn't request resources yet, but I'd like to make it do so.
If/when it does, the RTC_IO_EXTENT request may fail, which prevents the RTC
driver from loading.

Since we only use the RTC index and data registers at RTC_PORT(0) and
RTC_PORT(1), we can fall back to requesting just enough space for those.

If the PNP core requests resources, this results in typical I/O port usage
like this:

    0070-0073 : 00:06		<-- PNP device 00:06 responds to 70-73
      0070-0071 : rtc		<-- RTC driver uses only 70-71

instead of the current:

    0070-0077 : rtc		<-- RTC_IO_EXTENT == 8

All 32 bits machines but i386 dont have CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR. On these
machines, ktime.tv64 is more than 4 times the (correct) result given
by ktime_to_ns()

Again on these machines, using ktime_get_real().tv64 >> 6 give a
32bits rollover every 64 seconds, which is not wanted (less than the
120 s MSL)

Using ktime_to_ns() is the portable way to get nsecs from a ktime, and
have correct code.

0fc00e2440 [TTY]: Fix network driver interactions with TCGET/SET calls.
Dave Miller noted various cases where line disciplines for things like
ppp go poking around in termios themselves in ways that broke with the
new termios code. Rather than have them all learning about termios
internals provide proper methods for this

- tty_mode_ioctl()

	This handles all the terminal mode handling for speed/carrier
etc and none of the methods are ldisc dependant so they can be called
by any user

- tty_perform_flush()

	This extracts the flush functionality and enables pppd the ppp
layer to share it cleanly.

The existing n_tty_ioctl code is refactored in this patch to provide
the new functions and to call them itself appropriately. This patch
has no (intended) behaviour changes and simply prepares for the other
fixes.

6bd3bd6794 drivers/char/ip2: separate polling and irq-driven work entry points
Polling currently calls the irq handler, which loops through all the
boards, calling the work function for all polling boards with work.

irq handling loops through all the boards, finding the specific board
that applies to us, and calling the work just for that one board.

The two logics are sufficiently different to warrant different
functions, rather than being slack and calling the same function in two
different ways.

This serves to make the interrupt handler a -lot- more efficient.

get rid of input BIT* duplicate defines

use newly global defined macros for input layer. Also remove includes of
input.h from non-input sources only for BIT macro definiton. Define the
macro temporarily in local manner, all those local definitons will be
removed further in this patchset (to not break bisecting).
BIT macro will be globally defined (1<<x)

b488893a39 pid namespaces: changes to show virtual ids to user
This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where
the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids.

The idea is:
 - all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself
   or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call;
 - when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one
   should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids;
 - when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one
   should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this
   task's namespace the global one is to be used;
 - when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as
   the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

b460cbc581 pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()
is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check.  Split it into
is_global_init() and is_container_init().

A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1.

A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace
is the init_pid_ns.  But rather than check the active pid namespace,
compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is
initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes.

Changelog:

	2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1:
	- Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the
	  global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance
	  and remove dependence on the task_pid().

	2.6.21-mm2-pidns2:

	- [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc,
	  ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init().
	  This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a
	  bug rather than force a kernel panic.

a47afb0f9d pid namespaces: round up the API
The set of functions process_session, task_session, process_group and
task_pgrp is confusing, as the names can be mixed with each other when looking
at the code for a long time.

The proposals are to
* equip the functions that return the integer with _nr suffix to
  represent that fact,
* and to make all functions work with task (not process) by making
  the common prefix of the same name.

For monotony the routines signal_session() and set_signal_session() are
replaced with task_session_nr() and set_task_session(), especially since they
are only used with the explicit task->signal dereference.

b293d75847 Console events and accessibility
Some external modules like Speakup need to monitor console output.

This adds a VT notifier that such modules can use to get console output events:
allocation, deallocation, writes, other updates (cursor position, switch, etc.)

41ab4396e1 Console keyboard events and accessibility
Some blind people use a kernel engine called Speakup which uses hardware
synthesis to speak what gets displayed on the screen.  They use the
PC keyboard to control this engine (start/stop, accelerate, ...) and
also need to get keyboard feedback (to make sure to know what they are
typing, the caps lock status, etc.)

Up to now, the way it was done was very ugly.  Below is a patch to add a
notifier list for permitting a far better implementation, see ChangeLog
above for details.

You may wonder why this can't be done at the input layer.  The problem
is that what people want to monitor is the console keyboard, i.e. all
input keyboards that got attached to the console, and with the currently
active keymap (i.e. keysyms, not only keycodes).

This adds a keyboard notifier that such modules can use to get the keyboard
events and possibly eat them, at several stages:

- keycodes: even before translation into keysym.
- unbound keycodes: when no keysym is bound.
- unicode: when the keycode would get translated into a unicode character.
- keysym: when the keycode would get translated into a keysym.
- post_keysym: after the keysym got interpreted, so as to see the result
  (caps lock, etc.)

This also provides access to k_handler so as to permit simulation of
keypresses.
