Linus Torvalds 1a2acc9e92 Revert "[BLOCK] Fix oops on removal of SD/MMC card"
This reverts commit 56cf6504fc.

Both Erik Mouw and Andrew Vasquez independently pinpointed this commit
as causing problems, where the slab cache for a driver is never released
(most obviously causing problems when immediately re-loading that
driver, resulting in a "kmem_cache_create: duplicate cache <xyz>"
message, but it can also cause other trouble).

James Bottomley dug into it, and reports:

  "OK, here's the scoop.  The problem patch adds a get of driverfs_dev in
   add_disk(), but doesn't put it again until disk_release() (which occurs
   on final put_disk() of the gendisk).

   However, in SCSI, the driverfs_dev is the sdev_gendev.  That means
   there's a reference held on sdev_gendev  until final disk put.
   Unfortunately, we use the driver model driver_remove to trigger
   del_gendisk (which removes the gendisk from visibility and decrements
   the refcount), so we've introduced an unbreakable deadlock in the
   reference counting with this.

   I suggest simply reversing this patch at the moment.  If Russell and
   Jens can tell me what they're trying to do I'll see if there's another
   way to do it."

so hereby the patch gets reverted, waiting for a better fix.

Greg Kroah-Hartman df3fccb14a [PATCH] USB: fix omninet driver bug
I introduced this way back in 2.6.13 when adding the port lock logic.
This device talks out through different "ports" all at the same time, so
the lock logic was wrong, preventing any data from ever being sent
properly.

Thanks a lot to Bernhard Reiter <bernhard@intevation.de> for being
patient and helping with debugging this.

Luiz Fernando Capitulino 704936a25b [PATCH] usbserial: Fixes use-after-free in serial_open().
If the device is disconnected while serial_open() is executing and
either try_module_get() or the device specific open function fails, the
kref_put() call in the 'bailout_kref_put' label will free the memory
pointed out by 'port'.

The subsequent dereferences in the 'bailout_kref_put' label will be
invalid.

The fix is just to assure kref_put() is called after any 'port' usage.

Monty 16c23f7d88 [PATCH] USB: Emagic USB firmware loading fixes
It's become apparent as machines get faster that the emagic kernel firmware
loaders (based on the ezusb loader) have a reset race.  a 400MHz TiBook
never tripped it, but a 2GHz Pentium M seems to hit it about 30% of the
time.  The bug is seen as a hung USB box and the kernel error:

drivers/usb/misc/emi62.c: emi62_load_firmware - error loading firmware:
error = -110

The patch below inserts a delay after deasserting reset to allow the box to
settle before a new command is issued.  This affects only device startup.

Jens Axboe dac07ec121 [BLOCK] limit request_fn recursion
Don't recurse back into the driver even if the unplug threshold is met,
when the driver asks for a requeue. This is both silly from a logical
point of view (requeues typically happen due to driver/hardware
shortage), and also dangerous since we could hit an endless request_fn
-> requeue -> unplug -> request_fn loop and crash on stack overrun.

Also limit blk_run_queue() to one level of recursion, similar to how
blk_start_queue() works.

This patch fixed a real problem with SLES10 and lpfc, and it could hit
any SCSI lld that returns non-zero from it's ->queuecommand() handler.

Linus Torvalds f358166a94 ptrace_attach: fix possible deadlock schenario with irqs
Eric Biederman points out that we can't take the task_lock while holding
tasklist_lock for writing, because another CPU that holds the task lock
might take an interrupt that then tries to take tasklist_lock for writing.

Which would be a nasty deadlock, with one CPU spinning forever in an
interrupt handler (although admittedly you need to really work at
triggering it ;)

Since the ptrace_attach() code is special and very unusual, just make it
be extra careful, and use trylock+repeat to avoid the possible deadlock.

James Cameron d8e95e52a9 sis900: phy for FoxCon motherboard
661FX7MI-S motherboard which uses the SiS 661FX chipset.  The patch adds
an entry to mii_chip_info for the transceiver.

The PHY ids were found using the sis900_c_122.diff patch from
http://brownhat.org/sis900.html but that patch didn't solve the problem,
because the PHY at address 1 was already being chosen.

Without my patch, when bursts of packets arrive from other hosts on a
LAN, the interface dropped one roughly 10% of the time, causing
retransmits.  There were fifth second pauses in refresh of large xterms,
and it made Netrek suck.  I can provide further test data.

Workaround in lieu of patch is to use mii-tool to advertise
100baseTx-HD, then force renegotiation.

I wasn't able to identify the actual transceiver, so the description
field is a guess.

This patch is similar to Artur Skawina's patch:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=114297516729079&w=2

I'm not sure, but I wonder if it means the default behaviour should be
changed, so as to better handle future transceivers.

 * one state in registration process is unnecessary.
 * register_netdevice can sleep inside class_device registration/hotplug
 * code in netdev_run_todo only does unregistration so it is simpler.

mdr@sgi.com 6dd727da92 [SCSI] mptfc: race between mptfc_register_dev and mptfc_target_alloc
A race condition exists in mptfc between the thread registering a device
with the fc transport and the scan work generated by the transport.
This race existed prior to the application of the mptfc bug fix patch.

mptfc_register_dev() calls fc_remote_port_add() with the FC_RPORT_ROLE_TARGET
bit set in the rport ids passed to the function.  Having this bit set causes
fc_remote_port_add() to schedule a scan of the device.

This scan can execute before mptfc_register_dev() can fill in the dd_data
in the rport structure.  When this happens, mptfc_target_alloc() will fail
because dd_data is null.

Attached is a patch which fixes the problem.  The patch changes the rport ids
passed to fc_remote_port_add() to not have the TARGET bit set.  This prevents
the scan from being scheduled.  After mptfc_register_dev() fills in the rport
dd_data field, fc_remote_port_rolechg() is called, changing the role of the
rport to TARGET.  Thus, the scan is scheduled after dd_data is filled
in which prevents the failure in mptfc_target_alloc().

Jesper Juhl a50bb7b9af [TG3]: Fix possible NULL deref in tg3_run_loopback().
tg3_run_loopback doesn't check that dev_alloc_skb() returns anything
useful.

Even if dev_alloc_skb() fails to return an skb to us we'll happily go
on and assume it did, so we risk dereferencing a NULL pointer.  Much
better to fail gracefully by returning -ENOMEM than crashing here.

Roland Dreier 5941d079f2 IPoIB: Free child interfaces properly
When deleting a child interface with a non-default P_Key via
/sys/class/net/ibX/delete_child, the interface must be freed with
free_netdev() (rather than kfree() on the private data).
