[PATCH] I2C: patch quirks.c - SMBus hidden on hp laptop
This patch unhides the SMBus on the hp nc8000 and nc6000 laptops. The
patch has been co-written by Jean Delvare and Rudolf Marek. I've only
tested this on nc8000, but it should work for the nc6000 too.
Unfortunatley, we had to little information to fix the problem described
in the reported bug below, as is probably the same problem. But if we're
very lucky it might solve it too.

[PATCH] tg3 bug
During receive processing, the tg3 card updates rx_producer (the
hardware position in the receive ring) and the opaque cookie. Due to PCI
rules the stores happen in order. However the cpu may reorder the reads.
In these sort of cases there is usually a data dependency between
reading the index and looking up the data (since we use the index to
load the data). I think all cpus except alpha guarantee the reads
happen in order in this case.
However in this particular case we load hw_idx, compare it to sw_idx and
then use sw_idx to locate the opaque cookie. There is no data dependency
in this case. We need a read memory barrier between the read of
rx_producer and the opaque cookie to enforce ordering.
Thanks to Olof Johansson, Michael Chan and Broadcom for their assistance
in finding this bug.

[PATCH] fix airo oops-on-removal
From: Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com>
airo creates /proc/driver/aironet/<device name> on device activation.
However, the device can be renamed - then on teardown it tries to remove
the wrong directory. The removal of /proc/driver/aironet then runs afoul
of the BUG_ON() in remove_proc_entry.
This fixes it by keeping a copy of the name of the directory it created.
(It doesn't actually solve the problem of the stats directory still being
/proc/driver/aironet/eth0 when you rename the device to, say, 'joe'. But
that patch would be a little less trivial.)

* The OID type for BSSID was incorrectly set to type SSID.
It should be type RAW. This lead to interesting reporting
by "iwpriv ethX g_bssid".
(Which caused garbage output and possibly an out of bound)
* Be ultra-cautious in reporting SSID by changing the "%s"
to "%.*s" and passing the length. (Prompted by the false
type above, whereby length = 0 and a %s on a garbage field)

[netdrvr pci-skeleton] refresh
Here it is. The patch fixes all compile errors and warnings in
pci-skeleton.c. The "debug" parameter lacks corresponding variable,
so I removed it to avoid a warning on module load. Obsolete
pci_power_on() and pci_power_off() have been replaced with the new
code using pci_set_power_state(), pci_save_state() and
pci_restore_state(). The driver has been tested by compiling it as
module and as part of the kernel.

[PATCH] I2C: Refine detection of LM75 chips
The LM75 detection method was a bit loose so far and would accept
non-LM75-compatible chips from times to times. It should be better now.
Additionally, the help for the lm75 driver was reworked because we now
know that the LM75 and the LM77 are not compatible.

[PATCH] mconf.c: Honor $LINES and $COLUMNS if TIOCGWINSZ failed
While reading code, I found this buglet. If the TIOCGWINSZ fails,
mconf.c assumes 24/80 as screen size, without honoring the LINES and

[PATCH] mcdx irq handling cleanup
mcdx has different IRQ numbers for all drives; irq handler needs a
pointer to structure describing the drive in question. However, instead
of passing such pointer at request_irq() time and having it passed to
mcdx_intr() for free, mcdx.c sticks the pointer in question into an
array indexed by IRQ number and has mcdx_intr() go look it up there.

[PATCH] sparse: read_descriptor_t annotation
We have a fun situation with read_descriptor_t - all its instances end
up passed to some actor; these actors use desc->buf as their private
data; there are 5 of them and they expect resp:
IOW, there is no type safety whatsoever; the field is essentially untyped,
we rely on the fact that actor is chosen by the same code that sets ->buf
and expect it to put something of the right type there.
Right now desc->buf is declared as char __user *. Moreover, the last
argument of ->sendfile() (what should be stored in ->buf) is void __user *,
even though it's actually _never_ a userland pointer.
If nothing else, ->sendfile() should take void * instead; that alone removes
a bunch of bogus warnings. I went further and replaced desc->buf with a
union of void * and char __user *.
Rename PCDP_TABLE_GUID back to HCDP_TABLE_GUID to get the file to compile
again. This change is against current 2.6 BK and is under
CONFIG_IA64_EARLY_PRINTK_UART.
